Kogan Australia missing item

Order Number: WF29372P
date of Incident: 8.10.2018

I purchased a mavic pro drone, memory card, mavic pro carry bag and external hard drive on the 2/10/2018.
The items arrived.

All items EXCEPT the hard drive were in the postal packaging.
I have contacted the customer service team on several occasions and received no answers. I am constantly being redirected to the support team but no-one from the support team has contacted me.

I have included images of email correspondence (see attached photos) and my customer service numbber is: 6800 852

1 battery of the Mavic Pro drone does not work.
Have tried to talk to customer service several times.
With no real answers.
I am very upset, distressed and anxious about this ordeal .

I am requesting a full refund of products. I want to return the products. I took out warranty and given the lack of customer support, I do not want to continue with Kogan in the future.

Kogan Australia samsung galaxy s8+ with factory problems, they refuse change it for a new one

I bought 2 Samsung Galaxy S8+ 2 months ago and a few weeks ago I realized that the one I was using had a problem with the screen: it was not glued to the phone itself on the bottom and you could see a gap between. They checked my phone and said it was a "minor" problem so they technicians fixed it while I was claiming a new one. They sent it back to me even when I told le them I was not going to accept a repair for a factory problem which was something they had to manage, there's no reason why I should asume that problem. They told me they sent my case to a "senior team member" and since then I've had no answer and they keep ignoring me.
NEVER EVER buy technology from this guys. If there's a factory issue they clearly won't make themselves responsible for that.
I kept the phone packed because I won't accept it with repairs, money back or new phone.

Kogan Australia faulty television, repair time too long

Order VCRYKMDJ
After about one month my Kogan 65" Agora Smart 4K LED TV (Series 8 KU8000) (purchased on 30/6/18, despatched on 2 July 2018) malfunctioned. I was provided with software to reload which did not fix the issue. The unit was collected for repairs on 5/9/18 and I still have not got it back after 5 weeks. Kogan has been unable to tell me what the problem was or how long it will take them to fix it. After 4 weeks I requested a refund. Since then I have been offered an extended warranty and a bluetooth soundbar, which I do not want. I have requested a refund but have not heard back for one week now.
I have now lodged a complaint with Fair Trading NSW.
I would like a full refund of my purchase price, $907.99

Kogan Australia t.v. repair on faulty tv still not done after 10 weeks.

Kogan has had my faulty tv for 10 weeks with no action taken.

My request number is #6549129

My return ID is RA 1270966

I believe that 10 weeks is way too long to address the faults in my tv.

Please have somebody make a decision on this matter. I am now of the opinion that Kogan are not taking this matter seriously.

My email address is [protected]@netspace.net.au

My phone number is listed in my profile.

Hi Jeffrey,
Thanks for confirming those details.
Your return ID is RA1270966.
I returned my faulty tv 10 weeks ago and still no response from Kogan.
After 4 weeks I emailed and was told mt tv will still under inspection.

After 8 weeks I emailed again and was told that my tv was in the queue to be inspected.
Therefore it appears that my tv repair is in reverse.
Surely after 10 weeks Kogan can inspect my tv and make some kind of decision re a repair, a replacement of a refund.
10 weeks without any communication (apart from responses to me queries), may me believe that Kogan doesn't care about my concerns.
I respectfully request that somebody contact me and get somebody to act.
This is a very poor effort by Kogan.

Kogan Australia kogan 55' 4k led tv (series 8 ku8000)

Brought a TV, now the screen is not working. Have tried several things. No way of contacting Kogan. Have tried to email but still waiting for a response
Would be nice for a response to come through or have some way of contacting Kogan, as it may be a easy fix. Would like the tv to be fixed or sorted out before warranty runs out. If issue is not fixed will not be buying from kogan again as the customer support is not there.

Kogan Australia kogan stand mixer whisk

Despite numerous emails to Kogan this year I still do not have a satisfactory response to my problem. You have replied that you have received my email and have provided me a case number - 6745778.

I purchased a silver Kogan stand mixer and after about 4 uses the whisk disintegrated. I require a replacement whisk please.

Your response has been an instruction to set up a TV stand which is inappropriate.

Kogan Australia online express order not received, auspost doesn't have it, no phone number working

This is ridiclious. Ordered and paid for express for an air mattress to take on our holiday, paid for express postage, left warehouse on TUE, now it's Friday and we're about to leave and tracking hasn't updated since Tue, AP says they probably entered the number in the system but haven't shipped it out yet. Thanks for ruining our holiday. It says on the website item leaves warehouse 1-2 days after ordering, and from metro to metro express should take a day, max. 2, however nothing works. All Kogan's phone numbers are either disconnected or just the band message, and emailing the problem gives you the standard "we'll get back to you soon" inquiry reply. What a joke.

Received email saying sorry sometimes things go wrong and as a gesture of good will they'll refund the express shipping in 3-5 days, yet no one can tell me where my item is, if it has left the warehouse yet or not, no reply when asked to redirect the parcel to our holiday address, very unhelpful.

Kogan Australia purchase and delivery of mobile phone

The advertised phone - Samsung J5 Dual Sim was advertised with "1- 2 business days leaves warehouse" and 3-6 days after dispatch delivery. Today 11 days after purchase I called Aus Post as for the past days I have been submitting my tracking number online and the phone has not gone anywhere. Aus Post explained that they have not received the phone. They have received the paperwork, but no phone. I email Kogan and they explain that its in transit with Aus Post. I call [censored]. Kogan cannot explain where the phone is or when I will receive it. Guys, Please beware, this is really bad business practice in action. Deceiving customers for a speedy delivery that does not exist. Go to the store of your choice and buy the phone - dont buy through Kogan.

Kogan Australia karvsrcamra

Dear sir/Madam,
This wireless camera has been properly installed in accordance with your latest internet instructions (which are only slightly better than the ones which came with the equipment).
1 - I get a mirror image on the view screen and cannot find a way to correct this.
2- The red wire of the wireless receiver C is connected directly to the battery together with the red wire of the signal splitter/fuse B as per your instructions.
This means that the receiver is always getting power. It gets warm after awhile.
3- Is this ok and would it not drain the battery when the car is not used for a while?
4- I lost the fuse. Please advise its specs.
Please ensure that I get proper technical answers this time,
Regards,
Johan Sundermeijer

Kogan Australia order number pafcqmja and help center request #6755805

I bought Mobile prepaid plan- Kogan Mobile Prepaid Voucher Code: MEDIUM (365 Days | 7GB Per 30 Days) -Buy one Get one Free.

I only received one Voucher Code and they only posted one Sim pack.
I have contact the help center since Friday 21 Sep 2018. They told me they will send another voucher code and post another sim pack to me within 24 to 48 hours. Now it is more than 72 hours and nobody reply my request. Keep saying the senior team will look after this. Then they just stop replying me. I felt so disapponited with the service.

Such a [censored] experience with Kogan(First time with Kogan).
Order number PAFCQMJA and Help center request #6755805.
Please check with your staff to make sure they are doing the proper job for your company.

Kogan Australia kogan 58" smart 4k tv

i am writing this regarding my order no : 9ZV3KEJC (kogan 58" 4K smarter tv).
i returned my tv on 05/09/2018 because i received a faulty delivery with too many problems on the product. today is 20/09/2018. its been 16 days already and i am still waiting for the final response from kogan.com. last time when they replied to our email they said that we have to wait for two weeks but didn't said any thing about what specifically they are going to do with my tv.
i am facing unexpected tension because of their mistake. i paid full price of tv and now they have my tv and my money both.there is no any phone number to call them to get detail information about my order.Every time when they reply the email either they reply with incomplete information or they don't even bother to reply my email after putting me in this unfortunate situation.
i am without tv in my home because of the negligence and slow processing of kogan.com. i cant even buy a new tv from elsewhere because i don't know if they are going to replace the tv or refund my money back.
if you are unable to replace and deliver my tv within this week then i kindly request you to do refund process. i hope this time you take my case seriously and solve my problem.
Thank you

I am currently going through the same experience. A faulty TV on arrival. Hours of my time running through their problem solving tests. Then having to courier back the faulty TV. No information on turn around time. Kogan won’t answer any questions about time frame; won’t say why they can’t replace instead to tech assess; won’t even tell me a contact for a formal complaint. They have my money. They have the TV. They have complete control of the situation and the consumer has no opportunity to voice objections to their treatment.

Kogan Australia need to post back tv for repairs!

Kogan is disgusting. They have S phone number which then tells you to email. They can't even afford a call centre?
They asked to send some footage of the TVs problem with tuning. So I did. Now they want to test it and I need to wrap it up and rebox it. Are they frigging serious? I want my money back and take the shot TV with you! Refund me for my extra warranty that I paid over $100 for!
You are the worst company ever!
Come and pick up the TV yourself!

Kogan Australia my dvd player arrived and it doesn't work; laser dvd player with hdmi

I received my DVD player and plugged it in after buying a hdmi cord as it didn't have one and it doesn't work. The player makes lots of noises and doesn't play a DVD. I contacted your company via email and they told me to complain to the manufacturer which I did and they said that it's Australian consumer law that the place I bought it from must replace my purchase. Please call me on [protected] or email me [protected]@gmail.com ASAP.

Kogan Australia not receiving goods and then no response to emails

Order Number: J6V3FF2E

I ordered and paid for a Folding car dog pet ramp steps bi fold ultra light SUV's Vans portable back on the 31st August 2018., on the site it stated the transit time will be between 3-5 business days as I am located in city Adelaide.

On the 3rd September I received an email stating my goods are on their way and even offered me the Australia Post tracking number.

I waited and waited for the order and nothing came, on the 12th September I reached out to Kogan to follow up on my order to receive a generic email back apologising on the delay from Shawn stating they are working with Australia Post to see what the issue is and have opened up an investigation on my behalf. They did not offer the investigation number from the post which shows that this is a load of crap.

On the 13th I followed up again for an update and have received no response and we are now the 14th.

In the interim I called Australia Post to enquire about the parcel and they stated that they actually never picked anything up, it was just an electronically lodged request stating they would like to send these goods to me. Australia post opened an enquiry and gave me the number and stated there is no previous enquiry linked to that consignment note.

I feed this information back t to Kogan and guess what AGAIN NO RESPONSE!

I work in the freight industry and can see what you have done, you are taking the money on orders for products and then once you have a said amount ordered you place the order in China and then we are here waiting weeks for the shipment instead of the promised 5 days!

This is not acceptable behaviour, no wonder you don't allow phone calls, its only a company like your own with characteristics and mentality that wouldn't be able to hold staff to deal with all the complaints as your company is based on lies!

Its a joke, how do you get your money back on something if no one will respond to your email, you cant call.

ACCOUNTABILITY from KOGAN ZERO! LIABILITY and RISK the CUSTOMER.

Who knows how you are still in business!

You cant call Kogan
You cant use the Talk online, its unavailable
Kogan dont respond to email
Kogan Lie about transit
Kogan have no issue taking the order or money
Kogan encourage us to get friends and family to order, they do and are in the same situation.
Kogan take no accountability for business ethics

Lets see if someone can pick up the phone and call me, or whether they will just delete this...
