Wanelo Wanelo Review: A Total Letdown with No Customer Service or Integrity

I gotta say, Wanelo is a total letdown. I mean, I tried to give them a fair shake, but they just don't deserve it. The only reason I'm giving them one star is because they forced me to rate them in order to leave a review. If it were up to me, I'd give them negative stars. That's how bad they are.

Let me tell you a little story. A few months ago, I ordered a prom dress from a company called "YEP Fashion" through Wanelo. They promised me that the dress would arrive in plenty of time for the big dance. But guess what? It didn't. I had to scramble to find another dress at the last minute, which was a total nightmare.

So I contacted Wanelo to get a refund. They told me they would look into it and get back to me. But did they? Nope. I've sent them countless emails and made numerous phone calls, but no one will get back to me. It's like they don't even care.

And get this: I even tried to contact the CEO of Wanelo, Deena Varshavskaya, and she won't respond to me either. What kind of company is this? They have no integrity, no customer service, and no respect for their customers.

I'm not the only one who's been scammed by Wanelo, either. If you check out their Better Business Bureau rating, you'll see that they have a D-. That's right, a D-. That's practically failing. And it's no wonder, considering how many people they've ripped off.

Honestly, I think there should be legal action taken against Wanelo. They can't just get away with scamming people like this. We deserve our refunds, and we deserve to be treated with respect. But until they start taking responsibility for their actions, I wouldn't recommend anyone use their site. It's just not worth the risk.

Wanelo Disappointing Experience with Wanelo: Poor Quality, Short Return Policy, and Lack of Customer Service

My daughter was really excited to order a dress from Wanelo, but unfortunately, it didn't turn out to be what she expected. The material was not what she thought it would be, and she didn't even bother trying it on. The dress cost us $65 with shipping, and it took weeks to arrive.

When we finally received the package, we were out of town. It wasn't until we got back and caught up with our mail that we realized we needed to return the dress. We tried calling Wanelo to find out how to return the item, but we never received a call back. It took us a while to figure out how to do the return, and by the time we did, we were told that we only had 7 days from the receipt to return the dress. I have never heard of such a short return policy before.

I emailed Wanelo's customer service account, hoping to get more information on how to communicate with the store directly and see if we could still return the dress. Unfortunately, all we got was a brief reply apologizing that we could no longer return the dress. I was really disappointed that they didn't offer more help or information.

It's now mid-August, and we ordered the dress in mid-July. I think it's reasonable to expect that most stores would allow a return after a month. I feel like Wanelo uses poor companies that frustrate their customers. I wish we had had a better experience with this site. Now we're stuck with a dress that has never even been tried on.

Wanelo Wanelo Review: Unreliable and Unresponsive - Don't Waste Your Money

I had a really bad experience with Wanelo. I ordered something from them and never received it. When I tried to contact them, they didn't respond to me at all. I tried reaching out to them on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, email, and phone, but nothing worked. I was really frustrated because their policy says that they respond to emails within 48 hours, but I never heard back from them.

I don't recommend ordering from Wanelo because they're not reliable. You might get one thing, but you might not get another order. They don't seem to care about their customers at all, and they don't follow their own policies. It's really frustrating to spend your money on something and never receive it, and then not be able to get any help from the company.

I'm going to cancel payment with my bank because I don't want to lose my money. I also think that Wanelo should be reported to the federal government for fraud. They're not following their own policies, and they're not helping their customers. It's not fair to take people's money and not give them what they paid for.

Overall, I'm really disappointed with Wanelo. I don't think anyone should order from them because they're not reliable and they don't care about their customers. I hope that they get shut down for their fraudulent business practices.

Wanelo Wanelo Review: Disappointed with Knock-Offs and Poor Customer Service

I recently made a purchase on Wanelo, and I must say, I am extremely disappointed with my experience. I ordered two shirts from two different shops, and both of them were nothing like the pictures or descriptions provided on the website. The first shirt was supposed to be a teal tunic top with sequin arrows down the arms. However, what I received was a cheap long sleeve shirt with arrows made from scrap fabric that were sewn on by an inexperienced person. It was a complete knock-off of the original image, and I am assuming that the store did not even use their own photo. The second shirt was also a tunic style top with sequin accents in the sleeves and pocket. However, what I received was a basic long sleeve shirt with sections of the sleeve cut out and replaced with more scrap fabric that was sewn in very carelessly. The color and size were both wrong, and it was not anything like the picture or description. I was sold a knock-off of a boutique shirt, and I am extremely disappointed.

I have read through some of the reviews on Wanelo, and I have noticed that this is a recent and ongoing problem. I used to love Wanelo, but now I am not so sure. Why on earth is Wanelo allowing these stores to sell their crap on this site? I have sent emails to Wanelo to voice my concern and request a full refund, but I have yet to receive any response. I am extremely frustrated and disappointed with my experience, and I will never use this app again. They are nothing but crooks!

Wanelo Wanelo's Exceptional Customer Service: A Review

Wanelo is a company that knows how to handle problems when they arise. I had some issues with my order, but the way they handled it turned me into a loyal customer. Let me tell you, I had some major bumps in the road, and at one point I was feeling pretty down. But the way they handled my problem was so impressive that I can't help but recommend them to everyone I know (and trust me, I know a lot of people!).

When I reached out to the Wanelo support team to let them know that my shipment was way overdue, they didn't just give me the tracking information and send me on my way. They went above and beyond by reaching out to the shipper directly to figure out what was going on. They assigned me a support staff member (her name was Monica, and she was amazing), who was incredibly professional and kept me updated every step of the way. She made me feel like my order was important, even though it was just a small one in the grand scheme of things. She gave me multiple options to choose from so I could pick the solution that worked best for me. And within just 72 hours of reaching out to them, my package arrived!

I can't say enough good things about my experience with Wanelo. They really know how to take care of their customers, and I'm a customer for life now!

Wanelo Tips for Buying on Wanelo: How to Avoid Scams and Get Your Money Back

Most of the reviews I've seen here are pretty negative, but I've had a decent experience using the Wanelo app. I don't use my email to log in, but I do have a few tips for anyone who's thinking about buying something from a seller on the site. First of all, make sure the seller has a lot of reviews with pictures. If I can't see what the product looks like in real life, I'm not interested. Secondly, if you see a product you like and you want to save it, be careful. Sometimes the button that says "Buy" will be grayed out and say "See" instead. If that's the case, DO NOT buy from that seller. Wanelo doesn't authorize or approve those sellers, and you could end up getting ripped off.

If you do end up buying something and it doesn't arrive, don't panic. Go to your order section and click on the item that's still processing. Scroll down to the bottom and contact Wanelo. They'll already know your order number, so you don't have to worry about that. I've had really good experiences with their customer service reps. They're like your own personal lawyer or judge. They'll help you get your money back, which should show up in your account in 2-3 days.

One thing to keep in mind is that you need to be really observant when you're ordering from Wanelo. Look for reviews with pictures, and don't buy from sellers who aren't authorized by the site. I hope this review is helpful to anyone who's thinking about using Wanelo.

Wanelo Beware of Wanelo's "Fulfilled by Wanelo" Stores: A Review

I've been using Wanelo for a while now, even before they had an app. It's a great idea, and it's been really helpful for sharing links to things I want with other people. However, I've noticed that Wanelo has started creating their own stores, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The problem is that these "fulfilled by Wanelo" stores aren't legitimate. They're mostly based in China, and the photos they use are stolen from other stores like Urban Outfitters, Forever 21, and Brandy Melville. If you order from these stores, you'll receive a cheap knockoff of the item you thought you were getting. I'm not the only one who's noticed this; if you look at the reviews for these stores, you'll see that many people have had the same experience. They've received items that look nothing like the photos, and they're extremely disappointed.

If a store does have good reviews, they're probably fake. Wanelo has hired people to write positive reviews for their stores, and they even have an account called "reviewed by Wanelo" which is just ridiculous. Who writes their own positive reviews? It's clearly fraudulent. I've tried contacting Wanelo about this issue, but they've never given me a straight answer. They just say "this is a serious issue, we're sorry" and then do nothing about it.

Despite all of this, I still use Wanelo because I haven't found a better alternative yet. However, I never buy from the "fulfilled by Wanelo" stores, and I would advise others to do the same. It's just not worth the risk.

Wanelo Wanelo Review: Knockoffs and Poor Customer Service

Wanelo is an app that allows you to shop from independent sellers. While they offer a variety of products at cheap prices, most of their items come from China, which means that shipping and handling can be quite expensive. In fact, it can take over a month for your order to arrive.

One thing to keep in mind when shopping on Wanelo is that many of the items are knockoffs. While they do offer some higher quality fakes at a higher price point, you should be aware that these items may not last as long as the real thing.

I recently purchased a "high end quality" fake bag for $100. When I received it on 8/27/18, I was impressed with how realistic it looked for the price. However, just five months later, the bag is falling apart. Despite my efforts to contact Wanelo and the seller, Blue-Lovely, I have been told that there is nothing they can do because it is past their one month warranty.

As a customer, I believe that I should have some control over the quality of the merchandise I receive. If an item becomes damaged or broken after just a few months of use, I should be able to return it for a full refund or a replacement. Unfortunately, Wanelo does not seem to share this belief.

I have tried to fight this issue by sending photos of the damage to Wanelo's customer service email and posting a review on my account. However, I have not received any satisfactory response from them. It is frustrating to see that they are protecting the seller instead of taking responsibility for the broken merchandise.

In contrast, I recently had a positive experience with customer service when I purchased jeans for my child on eBay. When the zipper broke after just four months, I sent photos and a copy of the receipt to the seller. Within a few days, they sent me a new pair of jeans with an apology and a pre-paid label to return the broken one. It was so easy and simple.

If you are having issues with Wanelo's customer service, I recommend checking out the Better Business Bureau website. They take customer complaints seriously and may be able to help you resolve your issue. Overall, while Wanelo can be a convenient way to shop for unique items, it is important to be aware of the potential issues with knockoff items and the lack of customer support.

Wanelo Beware of Belle-Costume: Misleading Website and Poor Customer Service

My daughter was super stoked when she found a dress on Wanelo from a company called Belle-costume. The website said there were only four left in stock, so she quickly paid for it and eagerly awaited its arrival. I was a bit skeptical because the company's website didn't have an address or phone number listed. We never received a confirmation email from the company, nor did we get a tracking number even though the dress should have already been shipped. We both emailed Wanelo and Belle, but only my daughter received an email from Wanelo asking about measurements. Why didn't she get that email sooner? This morning, I received an email from Belle saying the dress is out of stock. But it was in stock when we ordered it! Why didn't they tell us sooner? They've had my daughter's money for a month now. How long until it's back in stock? Where is this dress company located? Why can't I contact them directly? This whole situation is really frustrating, and I want it resolved ASAP. I don't like dealing with emails back and forth. I would prefer to speak to someone on the phone.

Update: We did eventually receive a refund, but let me tell you, buyer beware of this Bella company. The Wanelo site made it seem like the prom dresses were made by a designer who had just started in the business and was making the dresses herself. We also thought the location was in Pennsylvania. But after searching the web and trying to find out more information about this company, we went on a wild goose chase only to find out that the dresses actually come from China. Lesson learned: always do your research on any company that's selling things super cheap and doesn't list a direct customer service number in the US. I've read so many bad reviews on Wanelo, and it's very misleading. I won't be making this mistake again. Check the return policy and make sure the company's full address is listed on the website. I would even suggest calling them first before placing an order.

I'm so glad my daughter was able to find another dress in time. Good luck to anyone else going through a similar situation. I contacted my bank, and they were a huge help in getting my refund resolved.

Wanelo Lack of Transparency and Customer Service on Wanelo: My Experience

I recently tried to get my online store on Wanelo, but unfortunately, I was informed by the community manager, Amanda, that my store did not meet their guidelines and had been flagged. I was then directed to a shopping FAQ, which unfortunately did not provide any clear guidelines or steps on how to be unflagged or how to improve my site to get approved.

When I asked for further clarification, Amanda sent me a link to another FAQ, which was the community guidelines FAQ, but still did not provide any indication as to why my business was not allowed on Wanelo or how I could improve my site to get approved.

I followed up with Amanda multiple times, but unfortunately, she seemed too busy to provide me with any clear guidance or even communicate with me without pasting a response. It was frustrating to feel like I was not being heard or valued as a potential member of the Wanelo community.

I understand that Wanelo wants to manually approve businesses to ensure that they are supporting good companies, but I do think that there should be clearer guidelines and more transparency in the approval process. It would be helpful if Wanelo could indicate precisely what is required to become a part of their community, so that newer businesses don't have to go through the same frustrating experience that I did.

As a community manager, Amanda could also benefit from engaging with the community more effectively. Copy-pasting responses and failing to address customers by name can make them feel like they are not being heard or valued. It's important to remember that the consumer/service provider relationship is a two-way street, and that clear communication is key to building a strong community.

Overall, I like Wanelo and enjoy using the app to browse products. However, I do think that there are some areas where the company could improve, particularly in terms of customer service and transparency. It's been a month since I first contacted Wanelo, and I have yet to receive a response. For a company that has been funded around 100 million, I would expect them to have a larger customer service department and be more responsive to customer inquiries.

Is Wanelo legit?

Our verdict: Complaints Board's detailed analysis reveals Wanelo as encompassing serious risks, firmly establishing it as lacking legitimacy. This evaluation serves as a strong caution to potential customers to avoid any business with Wanelo, thereby safeguarding their personal and financial interests.

Wanelo earns 11% level of Trustworthiness

Serious Risk Warning: Complaints Board's evaluation of Wanelo shows a critical trust level at 11%. Avoid for personal and financial safety.

With only 0% of 10 complaints being resolved, Wanelo slow complaint resolution rate suggests poor service, lack of responsiveness, or a lack of helpfulness, causing frustration to users. It is obvious that the company has the lowest level of trust.

Wanelo's website has revealed that it is not properly optimized for search engines. This could be a red flag indicating that the company is attempting to hide its activities from the public.

Wanelo protects their ownership data, a common and legal practice. However, from our perspective, this lack of transparency can impede trust and accountability, which are essential for establishing a credible and respected business entity.

Customers should be cautious when purchasing products from this company, as scammers often use similar items to defraud unsuspecting individuals.

We conducted a search on social media and found several negative reviews related to Wanelo. These reviews may indicate issues with the company's products, services, or customer support. It is important to thoroughly research the company and its offerings before making any purchases to avoid any potential risks.

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:

  • We found clear and detailed contact information for Wanelo. The company provides a physical address, phone number, and 2 emails, as well as 4 social media accounts. This demonstrates a commitment to customer service and transparency, which is a positive sign for building trust with customers.
  • Wanelo has received 2 positive reviews on our site. This is a good sign and indicates a safe and reliable experience for customers who choose to work with the company.
  • The age of Wanelo's domain suggests that they have had sufficient time to establish a reputation as a reliable source of information and services. This can provide reassurance to potential customers seeking quality products or services.
  • Wanelo.com has a valid SSL certificate, while Scammers can obtain a valid SSL certificate by using fake information or by using a stolen or hijacked domain. In some cases, they may even use a certificate issued to another legitimate website.
  • We looked up Wanelo and found that the website is receiving a high amount of traffic. This could be a sign of a popular and trustworthy website, but it is still important to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of the site before sharing any personal or financial information
  • Adult content may be available on wanelo.com. It is important to be aware of potential risks and to use caution when accessing or engaging with such content.

Wanelo Wanelo Prom Dress Nightmare: A Complete Scam

So, my daughter decided to order a dress from Wanelo for her prom. We were both excited to see the dress that she had picked out online. However, when we received the dress, it was nothing like the one that was shown on the website. It was a huge disappointment for both of us.

We decided to return the dress, but it turned out to be a nightmare. The dress was shipped from China, and trying to return it was a joke. I had to have email conversations with a person named Naomi from Wanelo for two weeks just to get instructions on how to return the dress. All of her emails came through in the middle of the night, which was quite odd.

I asked Naomi to call me several times, but she never did. Finally, I got an address to send the dress back to. However, the return address was in Minnesota, which was strange because I live in South Dakota. After I returned the dress to the address, I received a call from the person who received it. They told me that it was a private address and that they had no idea why I had sent them a dress.

I apologized and asked them to return the dress, and I promised to cover the costs. They agreed to return it, but after two months and several more calls to them, I never received the dress. I think that they are in on the scam with Wanelo!

I would never recommend ordering from this company. They are a complete scam, and I will never order from them again. I hope that others will read this review and avoid making the same mistake that I did. Wanelo, please don't bother sending me a response trying to make amends. I will never order from your company again.

Wanelo Wanelo Review: Disappointing Customer Service and Long Wait Times for Orders

I gotta say, I was pretty stoked when I first stumbled upon Wanelo. I mean, who doesn't love finding new and exciting things to buy? And this site seemed legit, you know? Like, I felt pretty confident that my hard-earned cash was in good hands. But boy, was I wrong.

So I placed my first order, all excited to get my hands on whatever cool thing I had just bought. And then...nothing. For FOUR MONTHS. I mean, what the heck, right? I tried contacting Wanelo SIX TIMES over those four months, hoping to get some answers. But nope, nothing. Just a bunch of empty promises and reassurances that the problem would be solved.

Finally, after the sixth time I reached out, they promised me a refund within 24 hours. And guess what? FOUR DAYS LATER, still no refund. I mean, come on. They acted all apologetic and concerned, but clearly they didn't give a crap about my problem.

Honestly, I'm super disappointed in this site. The only good thing that came out of this whole debacle is that I'm no longer obsessed with Wanelo. So...thanks for that, I guess?

Update: After many frustrating months, I FINALLY got my refund. But honestly, it was way too little, way too late. I won't be using this site again anytime soon.

Wanelo Poor Payout Process: My Experience with Wanelo on Shopify

Wanelo is a company that you can use on Shopify as a sales channel. However, I would not recommend using them because of my experience with their payout process. I had a customer order on June 9th and the package was delivered on June 18th. According to their policy, they are supposed to start processing my payout when the package starts tracking in transit, which was on June 16th. However, it is now August 5th and I still have not been paid for any orders.

Every time I email them about my payout, I get the run around. They tell me it will be 3 to 5 days, or they say they will check on it, or they claim they don't know what is wrong. They even asked if they could expedite my check. It seems like they have all kinds of excuses for not paying me. They are now saying that hopefully in 5 to 7 more days, I will get my payout and that a manager is working on it. But I have heard all kinds of promises from them before, so I am not holding my breath.

Their service is really poor. In my experience, they never payout for orders. I am still waiting for my payout, which was supposed to be deposited in my bank account weeks and weeks ago. Today, they emailed me saying that if they mail a check, it will be mailed the 3rd week of August. But who knows if that's true? I am still waiting and getting frustrated with their lack of communication and slow payout process.

Wanelo Warning: Dishonest and Unhelpful - My Experience with Wanelo Shopping

This website, Wanelo, is not a good place to shop. They are very dishonest and they hide behind emails and a customer service 800 number. The only way to communicate with them is through a message box, which is not very helpful. I had a problem with my order, I ordered a 40cm with silver hardware but I received a 35cm with gold hardware instead. This is not the first time I have had problems with this website, I have had three other problems with this order.

I would like to warn everyone to be careful when ordering from this website. Make sure you get the correct item and hardware. Shipping takes a very long time and the customer service is not very helpful. They only take messages and it takes up to two days for them to call back. This does not include if you have any problems or returns.

It is no wonder that Amazon is number one and making billions of dollars. I will not be shopping on this website again. It has been two months since I requested a refund and I still have not received it. There is no customer service 800 number, just a message box. I left several messages requesting a call back but I was hung up on each and every time during the call without a call back to rectify the situation.

The so-called customer service representative would send an email promising a refund since January 28, 2018, but as of February 23, 2018, I still have not received it. I would not recommend this website to anyone.

Wanelo Wanelo Review: Terrible Experience Buying Shoes, Order Cancelled & Wrong Item Received

I tried to buy the air max 90 anniversary cork from Wanelo, but after waiting for 41 days, I found out that the shoe was not available and my order was cancelled. It was a real hassle, and I had to contact my credit card company to get my money back. My fianc? also tried to buy the same shoes from another seller on the app, but she received a completely different shoe instead. Even though she noticed the mistake on the same day the shoes were shipped, she still received the wrong shoes. She sent an email to cancel the order, but the shoes were sent anyway. If the shoes they sent were nice and of good quality, we would have kept them, but they were the worst replicas we have ever seen.

We tried to contact Wanelo, but we only received a computer-generated email response. It was frustrating, and we felt like giving up. We don't understand how Wanelo is still in business with so many bad reviews. If you're ordering products like shirts and miscellaneous items that cost $10-$20, then maybe this site is okay. But if you're looking for shoes, forget about it.

All we wanted was a pair of Nike air max 90 anniversary cork shoes, and if they were in poor condition, we would have accepted them and moved on. But to receive a completely different shoe is absurd. We hope that Wanelo will improve their service and quality control in the future.

Wanelo Wanelo Review: A Platform for Discovering New Products and Independent Merchants

I've been using Wanelo for a while now and I have to say, I'm pretty happy with it. I know there are a lot of negative reviews out there, but I think people need to understand that Wanelo is just a platform that connects you to thousands of different online stores. It's not responsible for the merchandise or the shipping, that's all up to the individual merchants.

Now, I'm not saying that Wanelo is perfect. In fact, I think it could be a lot more helpful when it comes to finding reliable merchants. They do have guidelines in place, but I'm not sure how strictly they enforce them. Personally, I have a Shopify store with the Wanelo plug-in, which means my items are automatically transferred over to Wanelo along with my photos and descriptions. If someone buys something from me through Wanelo, it's just like any other order, but I can't contact the buyer directly.

So, my advice to anyone using Wanelo is to do your research. If you find something you like, take a few minutes to google the merchant and check them out outside of Wanelo. Look for customer reviews, business practices, and anything else that might give you an idea of whether or not they're trustworthy. It's also a good idea to make sure the merchant is based in your own country, especially if you're worried about long shipping times.

Overall, I think Wanelo is a great way to discover new products and connect with independent merchants. It's not perfect, but if you do your due diligence and take the time to find reliable sellers, you can have a really positive experience.

Wanelo Wanelo Review: Cute Clothes, Affordable Prices, and Patience Required

I've been using Wanelo for a while now and I gotta say, it's pretty cool. I've ordered from them three times and I use their app to browse through fashion almost every day. I don't get why there are so many bad reviews out there, because my experience with them has been pretty good.

Here's how it goes down: first, I order the stuff I want (sometimes I get a confirmation and tracking email, sometimes I don't). Then, I wait for almost a week for them to confirm the order and ship it. Finally, I wait about two weeks to receive the package. It's not the fastest process, but if you're patient and don't mind waiting a bit, Wanelo is a great option.

If you're someone who wants cute clothes but can't buy them in person (maybe because the brand is in another country), or if you're looking for something cute and affordable, Wanelo is definitely worth a shot. I've been happy with everything I've ordered from them.

I'm a pretty cautious person when it comes to online shopping, so whenever I'm worried about my package, tracking, or email, I just send them an email and they usually get back to me within a couple of days.

So, the key to ordering through Wanelo is patience. If you're an impatient person or you need your package in less than a month, I wouldn't recommend it. But if you're willing to wait a bit, Wanelo is a great option for online shopping.

Good luck with your shopping!

Wanelo Wanelo Review: Not Worth the Hassle for Sellers - High Fees, Payment Holds, and Difficult Account Cancellation

Wanelo is a website that you should be careful with. I had my site closed, but I received an order from the Wanelo sales channel (first one I've had). I was out of town, but still got it shipped in my 7-10 business day shipping time frame. I couldn't contact the buyer; it was a generic Wanelo email address. Emails were returned, not delivered. Luckily, she had looked at my website and realized it was closed. So she emailed me directly. I let her know it was fine, and when I expected it to ship.

Then I realized they hold sellers' payments for 30 days after the item ships, AND they require items to be shipped within 5 days. Yeah. Nope. I disconnected it from my Shopify site, but I want to cancel my Wanelo account. Their help page says there is a link on the "store settings" page. I've looked literally 50 times. Nothing. Its always a bad sign when a company makes it hard to cancel. Scammish. I'm surprised Shopify is sort of "partnering" with them... I think they'll be getting a complaint from me about it.

And then there are the reviews. TERRIBLE. Unless you drop ship or sell cheap pre-made junk from China... I'd stay away from it! They take 15%. They're crazy. I mean, why would you want to give away 15% of your hard-earned money? That's just not right. I don't know what they're thinking. It's like they're trying to scam people or something.

Overall, I would say that Wanelo is not a good website to use if you're a seller. They make it hard to cancel your account, they hold your payments for 30 days, and they take 15% of your money. It's just not worth it. I would recommend finding another website to sell your products on. There are plenty of other options out there that are much better than Wanelo. So, if you're thinking about using Wanelo, I would say think again.

Wanelo Disappointing Service from Wanelo: A Review of My Experience Ordering a FEYONCE Shirt

Last month, I decided to buy a black FEYONCE shirt from the Three Two One store on Wanelo as a gift for my friend who recently got engaged. I placed the order on Thursday, December 31st, and was informed that it would take 5-7 days for delivery. However, since December 31st and January 1st were both holidays, I waited for a full 5 business days before inquiring about the order status.

To my surprise, I hadn't received any ship notification from Wanelo yet. So, I contacted their Customer Service team, and they informed me that it takes 3-5 business days to process and prepare an order, in addition to the 5-7 days for delivery. They also assured me that I would receive an email when the item ships.

I waited for a few more days, but there was still no update on the order status. On January 13th, I decided to inquire again via email. It had been 7 business days since I placed the order, and the order was still marked as "processing" on the Wanelo site. To make matters worse, my card was charged for the order on Saturday, January 2.

Despite my repeated attempts to contact Customer Service via email and phone, I received no response. I am now considering disputing the charge with my credit card company to get my money back. It's frustrating that Wanelo charged me for the order right away but hasn't shipped it even after almost two weeks.

In conclusion, I am extremely disappointed with Wanelo's service. I will never order from them again and would advise others to be cautious before placing an order on their site.

Wanelo Shirt

Yes, I purchased a shirt April 21,2023 and I have been emailing them multiple times. Due to not receiving my order it’s going on 2 months. I have asked for a refund multiple times all I get that they are working on getting my order out. This website is a scam and it’s hard even trying to talk to someone. They make you leave a message but never gets back to you.

Desired outcome: I would like my money back. And I also deserve the order for free.
