    I made an order on 11/12/2024 the order was pretty large so it was split up into 2 separate parcels. Once the ******* ******* received the parcels I went into the app as I normally do and requested a location hold for both parcels. I was able to request a location hold for one of them but not the other one. That was unusual so I contacted the ******* to see if there was a glitch or error within the system. Once I finally was able to reach to ******* they informed me that I would have to contact the seller due to it being a restriction that they would only be able to clear. So I reached out to BOOHOO MAN via email as they only way to contact anyone from BOOHOO is via chat. I filled out the email inquiry page and waited for a reply. During this time I received multiple updates regarding my parcels being delivered which has been stressful. I finally received a response back from BOOHOO via email giving a generic message regarding tracking when I clearly stated the issue. So I sent another email emphasizing the matter at hand just to get a email back saying it could take up to 48 hours for a reply. Again the packages are soon to be delivered. So I reached out to BOOHOO via ******** messager again explaining the issue that I was currently having yet again I received a generic message about tracking and stating I should reach out to BOOHOO directly. I thought I was has been an annoyingly drawn out process. I literally have done everything within my power as a customer to resolve this issue and it's beyond poor customer service from **********************. What is confusing is how one parcel from the same order was granted hold at location access but not the other. It makes less sense that the only way to contact a company is via email and ******** messenger. The wildest part is that I paid extra for 3 day shipping and havent received my order in 3 days.

    Hi *****

    Thank you for getting in touch, I'm sorry to hear you have had an issue with the delivery of your order.

    When an order is made, this will be sent to the delivery address used at checkout and due to the shipping method used, we can not guarantee couriers will be able to redirect or hold these. I've checked the tracking for your parcels and can see both have been delivered as of yesterday, with one being held at the chosen ********** and the other showing to have been delivered to your address:

     ********************************************************************************************

    ********************************************************************************************

    With Express Delivery being a 3 business day delivery service, this made your orders expected delivery date the 18th November. As the parcels have been delivered within the chosen timeframe, these would not be considered late. 

    In regards to contacting us, I can see the messages in the screenshots were provided by our BOT and not our customer service team. We have a few contact avenues available and for future reference, these can all be found under our "Contact Us" page here:

    **************************************************************************************

    do hope you can still enjoy the items on your order.

    Thanks

    For my order MUS107923493, For my order they dropped it off at the front of the building (I am in a gated community) and someone ran off with it. They did not bring it to my kiosk for packages or my locker. I am very disappointed. Due to me leaving for a few months tomorrow, I would like to be refunded in full for this order. Thank you so much! **** even admitted to their fault. When I complained to BoohooMAN they closed my account instead of refunding me.

    Good morning *******, I hope you are well. 

    My name is ***** and I work in the escalations team here at BoohooMAN where we deal with all escalated queries. 

    I am so sorry to hear you haven't received your order and you have advised this was taken, I can see that your order was successfully delivered on the 7th November to your front door/porch at 1:57pm. 

    I can see our investigations team contacted you on the 8th November to provide an update on this account. 

    As we have checked the tracking, location, and picture provided from your delivery and are confident that this parcel has been handed to somebody at your chosen delivery address.

    We will therefore be unable to issue a refund or reorder for the items on this occasion.

    Please check with everybody in your household to see if they have taken in the delivery for you and let us know if the parcel is found.

    Best wishes,

    I received an order for 2 pairs of pants on 10/28/24 from Boohoo and they sent the wrong size pants. I reached out to them and they told me I would have to return the item, wait 29 days for them to receive the return and then they would credit my account for the amount I spent. I have pictures of my receipt and the tags that are on the pants that I was sent that I will include with my complaint. I just want them to send me the correct size, which is 12 and apologize for their mistake.

    The last two times I ordered from here an item was forgotten in the order. The first time the customer service did nothing about it and I lost out on money. I didnt order for about a year. I recently just made another order for 4 hoodies. Pretty simple I would say. Package was delivered today with only 3 of the 4 hoodies. The hoodie missing was $22. It was gray and red. Oversized gothic MMXIII Printed and washed hoodie mens

    Hello

    Thanks for getting in touch and making us aware of this. My name's **** and I'm part of the escalations team here at Boohoo where we look into all escalated complaints raised through BBB. We can certainly assist you with this.

    Due to many false claims made in the past, it means that we have had no option other than to change the way missing item claims are handled. This includes an internal team of ours reviewing orders when they are being processed so we can determine exactly how many items have been packed into the parcel.

    Now, to ensure you have been provided with the correct decision, I myself have viewed the footage and I do have to advise that its clear to see that all items were packed into the parcel prior to dispatch on this occasion.

    As the footage shows all items were put in the parcel before sending, we are confident the correct number of items were received. Due to this, we won't be able to offer a refund or resend on the item you have advised was not received. 

    Thank you - ****

    Advertised 3 garments as 100% cotton. I have these ads screenshotted. The items I received are blended with polyester, which I cannot use. Company charges a fee for returns and will not accept parcel without printed label. I do not drive and cannot go through this process, which is why I SPECIFICALLY read the fine print on the ads very carefully before purchasing. This is straight-out deceptive advertising. $65 gone between **************** and I am out three items of clothing that I needed for winter.

    I made a purchase on Boohoo website on 10/3/2024. I never received a confirmation email but yet they took $35.19 out of my account the very next day. I reached out to the them via LIVE CHAT and they are saying they can not find an order placed under my email address. This is very unprofessional and I have never experienced this before. It is now 10/7/2024 and I still have not received an email.

    - Email address used to place your order (if different to [email protected]) -
    - Full delivery address, including postcode -

    Hi Whitney 

    Thank you for getting in touch, I can definitely look into this for you.

    I've had a look at this order and can see a 40% code with additional 10% extra off was used. As per our terms and conditions, only one promo code can be used per order and when placing an order, the prices are shown and agreed to when the checkout process is complete. The amount taken at that time is not different to what is shown and if there are any queries with the pricing, we need to be made aware of this before the order is made as we can not apply promotions to an order once it's made.

    I can see you have provided 2x screenshots which show different prices due to an addition of a promo code, and neither screenshot show all the items on the order at a price less than what was paid. The screenshots show different promotions applied and with them being 2x different promotions, the prices will be different. For example, IMG_3763 shows 4 items at a lower price than what was paid, but the Linen Blend Jumpsuit is showing as $27.50 where as only $25.45 was paid. This shows that the screenshot is not of the checkout process for the order you made and is of the basket with a different promo applied than what was used when the order fully placed. 

    On this occasion as a gesture of goodwill, I have refunded the 4 items down to the lowest price and the $13.34 for this should show on your account by the 1st October. We will not be able to offer further refunds on this occasion and as advised by our customer service team, if the items are no longer wanted due to the prices paid, these can be returned for a refund.

    Thanks - ****

    I made an order that had 3 blazers. I needed all 3 of the blazers. Instead of the 3 blazers, 2 blazers and a pair of pants were sent to me. I contacted customer service, and they said I could make a free return. I returned all 3 items, and was charged $7 for returning all 3. However, I would have kept them all if the correct items were sent to me. I needed all 3 blazers for a specific event. I would like the $7 that was charged to be returned becuase the return was a mistake of the company, not a choice of mine.
