Souq.com iphone 6

We order iphone6 from souq.com as a new phone.
It works for two months, then it has no voice and then not charging.
We contact apple stores we find that this phone is used before in 2015 and renewed and has no warranty, then we visit apple store they search for it in their system they found it was registered as iphone silver color " which was my original order, and what I received was a rose gold one, they said that this phone had changed its back to rose gold one.
They refused to service or maintain it .

I need my refund back and souq took this phone, i used to buy goods from Souq and I was counting that you are a reliable company .

Please look into this problem please .

I have ordered IPhone 7 on 21st November, 2018 & it was cancelled on 22nd November 2018 because the courier company was not providing it to my new address. I followed up on daily basis for one month for my refund & it took one month to delivered back the item to the seller on 21st December 2018. I was informed that you will get the refund within 5-7 working days at the time of cancelling the item. From 21st December onward I am calling daily but every time they are saying that you will get in 24 hours.

Kindly comment what should I do.

Souq.com xbox power adapter

I placed an order # [protected] for Xbox One Adopter which was supplied me for Xbox 360 and same is mentioned on the Box. Why it was dispatched to me when even it is clearly mentioned on the box.

I placed another order for the same with ID # [protected] from another supplier. Now, this time Souq charged me twice. It means, I paid thrice for one item. I know, I will get this amount in my account of Souq but I should be charged again. Mistake, the another mistake, then it could not be refunded.
Actually the amount should have been transferred to my Credit Card which could not be, as informed by Call Center Agent

Souq.com ripoff, and lies

This is regarding couple of things, perfume and 2 Jars of Honey, the first one (Perfume) they lied to me when they refuse to take the order from the seller, and I waited couple of weeks and finally they cancelled the order . The second order I waited for 8 days and they told me that order is cancelled because the package is damaged and they had to make a new delivery order and after 4 days they delivered the package but when I opened it, it was the same broken package. I called they delivery boy when he was on the stairs he said I'll come the next day, but he came after 5 days and after several phone calls . He took the package. I contacted souq.com.eg to ask for refund they told me they have to check it out before refunding my money back, but as usual they forgot all about it

Souq.com return competency

For order #[protected] have requested return of specific items on mobile app and kept waiting for a week. To my surprise return was a learning cancelled automatically on app. I called and initiated again.. but same thing happened 3 more times. I dont know if they still take the return seriously or not... but I got a product which have defect or unfit and i cannot buy new one as the website promises only delivery but not a good after sales service.

Still part of return is not picked and I am frustrated as it's been 3weeks and I dont know how I can trust refund from souq if they are so poor with product return. The pick guys dont even call and cancel the return without confirming if you are not at your location. Who does that kind of atrocity just because you have got money for the order already ?

I wish I had just stuck to noon.com and not tried pathetic souq agter poor encounters previously

Souq.com cheating with delivery terms

Main order # [protected], sub order# [protected]
Requested for my preferred delivery address. It was supposed to be delivered to be on 9 th Dec 2018 as per online information. but without my information, they changed the delivery condition as self-collection without my knowledge and when I called, they say it's a system error and they can accept the complaint but they are not ready to change the shipment mode and forcing me to come and collect. Asking me to take the pain for their mistake. This shows they don't care for the customer and also don't take immediate actions on their mistake

POOR SERVICE - HELL WITH SOUQ AND Q EXPRESS courier !

Totally irresponsible ATTITUDE towards a customer

Souq.com delivery of tv

I ordered a TV from Souq 3 weeks ago. It said that the tv was delivered 10 days ago but it has not been. This is a 43 inch tv which i purchased from the black Friday sale. The customer service team have been awful and no help in following up with the delivery driver. They have not even tried to track the TV and keep closing my complaint. Once again I have complained to them only for me to receive no reply.

Souq.com delivery

My delivery was delayed 9 days from the delivery date

Firstly, The delay has not only
caused inconvenience, it has caused a great loss of money and clients due to my inability to commit to a deadline which was due souq's incompetence and disrespect towards the client needs.

I would like to state some of the details of this order. I have called souq call centre 6 times in 3 days, wasted more than 40 aed of phone credit and over 2 hours of my time on these phone calls only to receive false promises of a delivery within 48 hours and representatives assuring me that a manager will contact me within 24 hours, ofcourse none of this happened.
And when i presented these issues to the representative i was shocked to find out that the manager knows of my issue and is blatantly refusing to talk to me or even give me a minute of his" oh so precious " time.

I do not care what has caused this delay but what i do care about is the fact that i can no longer trust souq with any of my future orders and will no longer be using souq services and will for sure advise everyone i know to do the same. Afterall, souq is not the only online selling platform in the UAE and i am confident other platforms will have a bit more respect towards their clients than souq has.

Romameg, we're in the same boat here. And i'm really really pissed off with the situation.
I placed the order last 21-November during the White Friday Sale, so I just decided to cancel the order on 3-December because it seems that the item is missing.
So I just decided to cancel my order. And up to this day, my money hasn't been refunded back and it's really really frustrating. The value of my order is quite big, it is AED 1, 200

Souq.com q express worst delivery system

Dear Sir

Souq is such great platform form for online buying and happy to continue as your valid customer
But the delivery department Q EXPRESS service is much worst
They don't follow SOUQ standard delivery schedule but do the delivery as they wich

Take the example of this order - [protected] ordered in 24/11/2018 souq promised delivery schedule was 27/11/2018 later extended it in 29/11/2018,
Now in 01/12/2019, I called customer service, still, they are not sure that when can they deliver it and we cancelled this order

So please don't damage the reputation of Souq by carrying such worst delivery department
Kindly advice Q express to strictly follow souq standard delivery schedule .
In case due to a high volume of order, if the delivery will be delayed, please give us proper delivery days information when we place an order

Kind regards
Majeed

Souq.com buying is easy but the refund process is horrible.

It's been 2 weeks now since I keep requesting to refund the item I purchased on souq. I keep getting massages on my phone that the driver is on his way but no one comes. When I call the call centre number they say that the driver tried to reach me but I was not reachable, so the order was cancelled. I am very much reachable. Regularly checking my phone and waiting for some one to come for the pickup. I made 3 purchases this month all got delivered. How come delivery boys could reach me but not the pick up boy.
Even today I got two massages stating that the driver is on his way. Last massage was at 21: 40 hours. Here it is close to midnight now where is the driver. Wasted my whole day waiting for him.
I know when I call the customer care tomorrow, their reply would be driver tried to reach you but you were not available.

Souq.com ray ban sunglasses and few more items

I've ordered a pair of sunglasses from souq and the delivery itself was very late. The ordered pair doesn't fit me well and of low quality. I've raised a return request and has been waiting since long time to get the product. I called them daily and the customer care ex says it will be picked up next day but nothing happens. I'm tired of this. I've ordered other products also which are not yet shipped and it already crossed the delivery date. Pathetic service from souq. Noon was way better and had good service. Souq is losing it's credibility big time and spoiling the brand image of amazon.

Souq.com qexpress customer service representative

I called just minutes back to know what is the reason why that their courier didn't come yesterday to collect the items that I requested for a return knowing that I received SMS for 2 times confirming that courier will come. Unfortunately courier didn't come yesterday and early this morning I received SMS that courier will come but at this point in time no one came. I received 2 SMS from them today. Since I didn't receive any call from the courier I decided to call the qexpress customer service. To my surprise the representative on the other line is VERY UNPROFESSIONAL! She talked to me as if she doesn't care about the reason why I made a call. She answered my queries in a VERY SARCASTIC WAY! Souq is good online shopping site but it your courier services or customer service representatives are SOOOO BAD then some things will be turn as a mess!

So bad and dis appointed with the QEXPRESS Customer Service !
