I tried ordering something for my sister for Christmas from their site. I ordered over a week in advance, and they gave me an estimated shipping time that would have it arrive on New Year's at earliest. I tried emailing them to ask about faster shipping or canceling the order. It's been 5 days and I haven't received a response. I checked my orders on my profile, and it's *still* listed as processing. It should not take 5+ days to process my order.

Hi Alex, I'm sorry that your order has yet to arrive and for the delayed response from the customer support team. The delivery estimates for stores on Wanelo vary great, because the stores are all independent sellers. We'll send you a private message right now to confirm your order # and help address this.

Customer service is a joke
March 16, 2023

I ordered an item back in December. 17 emails later, customer service is working on it. I contacted the supplier directly and they are out of stock. I forwarded this message to Wanelo and they are still telling me they are working on getting it shipped. Yup. My out of stock item. They will not refund my money and refuse to help.

Was sold fake Adidas!
September 19, 2016

Ordered shoes on Wanelo from a store called simpleclothesv. They were advertised as adidas and so I bought them. HOWEVER, I noticed that it was shipping from China. First red flag. They arrived in about two weeks (today), and guess what? They are as phony as a three dollar bill.

The logos were off, the boxing was cheap and obviously fake, and everything about the shoe didn't match authentic adidas. Even the quality of the fake shoe was horrendous. I reached out to a representative of Wanelo, and they tried to convince me that products from China are great, and especially trustworthy. She offered no help, and I feel greatly cheated and I've wasted time and money.

Just bite the bullet and buy from the actual companies so you're not cheated by sketchy overseas sellers.

In the beginning I had some issues but then realized it's certain SELLERS on there you have to stick to. I myself have 3 and only 3 I use. I absolutely love them and the now know me well! There has been site glitches lately I cannot see the " Magic" feed anymore which makes me SO SAD! However I find my way to New merchandise as best as possible! Thank you Wanelo and sellers for making me a happy girl!

Don't buy from this company. I paid almost a month ago, still no tracking/shipping, they're saying they've "been off on holiday" and my purchase in still in production. Asked for refund and they flat out LIE and say it's not possible. FRAUD/SCAM!

Wanelo should take ownership in customer service. Wanelo allows companies with poor quality products and bad customer service to sell to unsuspecting customers. The company CUPSHE cheats its way to profits. On their Wanelo page, it says to "return to US warehouse", no mention of an address. When I tried to contact they send me irrelevant messages back. (Adding fuel to the fire.) I am just asking for a return address! Wanelo to me, is just as bad of a company: there is not even a contact email address to address my complaint.

Hi Sharon! I'm sorry for the experience you've had but I can definitely help you out. We've been in contact with Cupshe about giving an updated return address for customers so this won't be an issue any longer. I'll send you a message to learn about the methods you used to try finding our contact info so we can see if we need to make some adjustments!

Awful experience
January 28, 2016

Order a long sleeve dress on 12/29/2015. After a few weeks, after I was charged for item, I contacted site. Told me they were looking into it. Two weeks after, I get an email my card is being credited. No explaination, no apology. Will never use this site or seller (California Boutique) again

I definitely want to look into this for you. Please send an email to shopping@wanelo.com with “Sitejabber” in the subject so I can grab it quickly!

All I keep getting is a run a round email, saying they are trying to figure out what's going on with my order. It says items are shipped 5-7 buisness days. I am so upset. I trusted this app, and ordered my with full confidence and feel I have been scammed out of my money. So disappointing. I hate shopping online. Never again. People like this ruin it for people with trust issues as myself.

Was a fabulous site in 2014 and has gone steadily downhill since. At this point the app is near functionless, the addon extensions for chrome and other browsers have ceased to function. Customer service is non-existent. Not reachable by phone (no phone# available) or text and emails are not responded to except for automated replies. Overcharged twice, two orders never arrived. More and more sellers listed are located in China or Taiwan, close to 80% now. It's a hot mess. I would use a different password and a VPN to access this site unless you want to expose yourself to having your personal info at risk. Buy at your own risk.

Wanelo is not a store. It is an app comprised of many stores and accounts. Some are reliable. Some are not. That is why you should do research on whatever store/account is selling the item you like and check for pictures, comments, and reviews/ratings after you click on the picture. The app itself can be VERY helpful and fun to use. These reviews are uninformed.

They refused to provide me a refund because the order was over 6 months ago but they never even shipped the item. It still says processing in my order status. I honestly forgot about the item which is why it's been 6 months.

My daughter ordered a prom dress that has been weeks and we still do not have it even though it was 6 days delivery guaranteed! We have called customer service numerous times and written many emails with no contact or response! We will be going to the Better Business Bureau next as well as get a lawyer to get our money back even if we lose our money to get that lawyer! Buyers beware! :(

Pretty bad aka terrible
November 30, 2015

I placed an order today and my card was charged immediately but there was no order confirmation and it didn't show in my history. I called the number listed on this page and it isn't even a working number. I have emailed as well but have not heard back. I would have never ordered from this site but someone I knew purchased an outfit from here I liked. Can someone please help?

Fraud of a company
April 10, 2023

STAY AWAY! This company is a ofraud. I have had so many bad experiences, I don't even know where to begin. I have learned my lesson to not ever buy from them again. My last 2 experience were the worst from them all. I bought sneakers last year which said delivered, but I never received them. I showed proof from the carrier that they were sent to the wrong address, but since it was the same zip code, they didn't give me a refund. I had to repurchase them for a higher price on Dec 2022. To date, it still says "item delayed." I have emailed them more than 30 times (not exaggerating) and they reply with the same generic response saying they are sorry, but there's nothing they can do. Once again, no item and no refund. They offered me a $5 credit to spend with them which is laughable since it's more than $200 I spent. Again, STAY AWAY!

I ordered a pair of boots for my daughter... received an email saying they have been shipped but when I click on the tracking # it says it can not be found. When I call up the order... it says Still processing. What the heck? Oh and it says it's being shipped by Other? What is Other? I emailed Customer Service... got a generic robo response saying someone will be getting in touch with me.

Money stealers
March 10, 2015

I actually really enjoyed this app I always have a lot of fun scrolling through the fun items but I bought a shirt 3 months ago and it hasn't arrived. I'm very upset and everytime I contact them they send me my order form and don't say anything about the wearabouts of my shirt. Try not to buy from the actual wanelo store

Melanie, please email shopping@wanelo.com with your Wanelo username and order number. Wanelo doesn’t have an actual store, but if we know which store it was that you purchased from, we’ll get in contact with them to sort it out.

Don't trust Wanelo
July 28, 2016

When you look up the shopping website, WANELO, the phone number they advertise ( *******109) is not a valid number and you cannot reach anyone!
Major indication of problems!
Also, if you should decide to cancel an order, even if you accidentally clicked on the wrong item... and want to cancel it immediately afterwards, the site states " No Cancellations!" So, you are stuck with the item!
There is NO link to be able to speak to a customer service representative!
Should you have a problem, you are in your own.
When I ordered something that I wanted to change, I had to call my bank to stop payment because there no other way to cancel.
As I said, WANELO doesn't allow cancelations!
Plus, look for the same item on Amazon, and it's much cheaper!

Hi Diane! I'm sorry about your recent experience! Our marketplace is made up of thousands of Sellers who have various cancellation policies which we try to honor. At this time, our customer service phone number is a voicemail set up only and you would need to leave your name and phone number and one our representatives will get back to you within 24 hours. As an alternative, and for faster resolution of issues you can send us a message to shopping@wanelo.com. I'd like to get this resolved for you as soon as possible, so I will be sending you a private message to get your order information so I can check the store's cancellation policy for you. Thank you!
