Cons
Verdict
Overall sentiment toward Aramex Australia is overwhelmingly negative, driven by widespread frustration with chronic delivery delays, poor tracking updates, and unresponsive customer service. While a small number of users report positive experiences with specific local drivers or fast transit times, the dominant consumer consensus highlights severe unreliability in the delivery process. Many customers state they actively avoid online retailers that use this courier service.
Aramex are terrible. My parcel took weeks to get close to me then the day of delivery they sent a text saying they couldn't deliver as there was a worry with dogs. Well first of all we don't have a front fence and second of all we don't have a dog. We looked on our camera that day. And nobody pulled up near our house at all. So we rang them and… Read more
they said they would try to deliver it in a few days. That didn't happen. A week later I got an email saying that my parcel was being sent back to the sender. I give them a minus 5 star.
Worst delivery group ever. Two days out for delivery. Yet another birthday present our granddaughter will miss out on. I will never buy from anyone who users this company to ship ever again Show details
Absolute rubbish company, unprofessional, delayed, lying... Honestly, there is not a single positive thing to be said about this mob. Every single time there are dramas, delays, and issues. Message me for delivery yesterday, fine. Nobody shows up, message me again that parcel will be delivered today. Hours later the parcel is back in the depot.… Read more
All within Victoria, don't even want to know how interstate deliveries work.
I will never again purchase anything from a business that uses this mob, full stop. And i highly recommend you do the same if you don't have the time to waste, because with them ,deliveries never arrive as scheduled. NEVER AGAIN

Once again Aramex has been used by a company I purchased from who also throw or drop packages at your door without any regard of its contents. Companies should tell consumers which courier company they are using so that I do not purchase products from them if Aramex is used. If I could have left a zero review I would have. Show details
Unprofessional delivery service – Terrible delivery service through your parcels onto your porch. I don't care you don't even get updates on notifications when you're delivery is coming Show details
Thanks for your feedback Chris. As we constantly endeavour to better our services, all feedback is valuable to us.
Proper delivery is too difficult – I caught on camera the laziness that is an Aramex delivery driver. Couldn’t even be arsed to go through the unlocked courtyard to put my package on the porch. Show details

Terrible, primarily because there is no way to get through and they don't follow through at all – **Just go to their depot, it's the only way to get your parcel** Like many others I have been floored by how inept Amarex has been with a recent parcel delivery. I understand Christmas time is a busy time of year for any postal service, but at no point did they follow through on getting my parcel to me. Firstly, they claim they attempted… Read more
delivery on Dec 19th at 8PM but did not leave a calling card nor any notice of when the delivery would be. My partner was definitely at home during this time.
Secondly, there is no easy way to get through to them. No one gets back to you with their chat portal, their contact form on their website also goes unanswered. I also could not order a redelivery as I had no calling number card. And when you call their number the call immediatly drops as the line is busy.
Eventually I realised if I kept on calling the 03 number I eventually would get through, after 55 attempts of this I got through to the pre-recorded message and left I was on hold. A further 45 minutes waiting there I eventually got on to someone. As I had no trust in them delivering my parcel I opted to pick it up from their depot. The lady on the phone told me I would need to wait up to 48 hours for confirmation that the parcel was ready for pick up. And, of course, that email never came. 4 days later I called again, same story, I was told I definitely hear back within 48 hours and my issue (i.e. my parcel seemingly being held hostage) had been forwarded up the line. Again, multiple days later I had heard nothing.
Eventually, on Jan 3rd, after starting to research what body of authority to complain to, I came across an review here sharing a similar story with all of the above about doing to the depot for collection with success. I did the same, it took about 15 minutes for them to find my parcel and I left. Ironically, not long after picking it up my online customer enquiry that I had sent on the Dec 21st that I never heard back from was closed due to picking up the parcel. Truly wild that they are allowed to operate.

Horrible service – The delivery guy called me downstairs and I thought he needed some help but instead he handed me over the large furniture and was in hurry. I asked him for help to atleast help me to take it to my unit, it’s unit 6 and on second floor. He told me he ll keep at unit 5 and then I can drag the product to my unit and I did. I dragged the product all… Read more
the way to my unit….WTH, he’s there for delivery and he’s ment to deliver the product at one’s door. I would like to give zero stars if there’s an option. I wouldn’t recommend❌.

The most Useless company ever, He throws the package at the front door from 20 mtrs away when this uneducated oxygen theft could have simply walked to the front door, then takes a photo. Never buy from any company that uses them again. Show details

Expensive rug was left damaged, dumped over our fence, even though we have a covered veranda, and left overnight in the rain. Aramex Orange NSW office Manager said there were no contact details so we had to leave it that way. Wouldn’t accept photos, wanted us to haul a wet 7ft X 4ft rug back to their depot. Defensive, unhelpful, poor customer service. Show details

OMG! Who are these new jack-in-the-boxes??? They are as useless as... On their "tracking website" my parcel has not moved since the 17th of July. Today is the 28th...

Tasmania - is cursed with these losers??? We only getting tge,imile, aramex, roadrunners... They are like a filter in the middle of a cigarette... Good for annoyance only, but wait! I am the one who have to pay for it! Why pay ever increasing price on delivery cost while they are only going lower and lower in service??? Just another "final leg" that need to be filtered out before I buy thing online or just go to another seller.

NO STARS. Not my first review. Bought item through Amazon, didn't know they use Aramex for international items. I hate Aramex because they do not do the job they're paid to do. Fake attempted deliveries; do they get paid for these undeliverable items? I managed to reach their customer service but still no outcome. Spoke to Amazon customer… Read more
support to escalate and made it very clear they do themselves a disservice by using them. It's a nightmare dealing with the lies and disgusting excuse for a service. They should be shut down. Parcel has not arrived. My security camera has no evidence of 'attempted delivery'. Liars. Apparently they attempted delivery at 9:51 pm last night!!!! Nope.

So bad the service your better off flushing your money rather than buy items from places that use Aramex – Wish I could give this terrible company negative 10 stars as literally every order that has been shipped to me using them was either lost ( probably stolen ) or huge delay like my most recent one is now or returned to sender as they are too lazy to… Read more
actually come to a door to drop off items.. My current one left Sydney and is well who knows with these scammers coming to Newcastle area a couple hours away. The item has been sitting in Sydney now for 5 days and just got marked as delayed no surprise. From past experience that means lost or stolen. I checked their network for delays in my area by them and is said none which makes it look like lost or stolen. This company who use to be called Fastway ( what a lie and joke ) but changed to the current name due to their dreadful service but a name change dont change the garbage company. Avoid at all costs.

So my review 'bucks the trend' of the vast majority, but in my case you give credit where it is due. Carton of wine despatched from Sydney on the Tuesday and delivered 8am on the Friday. I mean this is pretty basic stuff that you would expect from any courier company. In my two experiences with Aramex they have not let me down. Show details · 1
Having had trouble in the past with Aramex deliveries, I just have to say the new deliver driver for the Sunshine Coast is a gem. He knocks instead of just dropping off and he is so friendly. Well done. Show details · 1
Late and delays every single time . I will never buy products from any business who uses Amarex for there delivery service. Edit... So the package was only 1 days late which is exeptable. The problem was the tracking system. Tracking status did not change is 6 days . It was showing not even arrived at the depot and was shaking "delayed. Then a few hours later it was delivered. I have changed my 1 star to a 4 star. Show details · 1

I ordered an item from a company and put an Australia Post Parcel Locker (not a PO box) as my delivery address, unaware they used a courier service and that this was not an option. I did not know of the issue until Aramex 'attempted' to deliver my parcel, reported the issue and asked me to contact them. Instructions of who to contact and how were… Read more
difficult to find on their website, and when I finally found the number for the local courier, attempted to contact multiple times and in multiple ways but received absolutely no response. Eventually just contacted the Aramex general line and gave them my personal shipping address, and they said they'd update the info. Over a week went by with no further updates, and when I contacted them again to find out what was happening, they had no idea what was going on or even where my parcel was. I had to wait several more days (now two weeks) before I received a random email saying my parcel was going to be delivered, though it was still unclear where. It did eventually arrive to my personal address, but with so much unnecessary hassle. Only redeeming quality is that the Aramex employees on the general help line were very nice and were genuinely trying to help. Just seems like the company is overall a bit poorly constructed.
Package has been sitting at a distribution centre for three business days awaiting collection, made an enquiry in regards to when I should expect it to be picked up to be told: The scan you see is an automated scan from the Distribution Centre your sender has chosen. We have received your consignment information data (a label has been created… Read more
online) however there is no physical scan of the parcel in the Aramex network at this time.
Expect significant delays and probably report them to your local postal ombudsman. My supplier has been told not to use this company again.
Absolutely terrible Kmart Marketplace deliveries x 3 all ordered in one order - 1. Package never arrived, once formally requesting photo evidence had a reply to state “hi, confirmation of delivery attached” with no attachment 2. Boxes were seriously damaged on arrival, luckily the items were dumbbells and so not damaged themselves 3. Last item… Read more
dropped inside property over the fence that is four foot in height rather than opening gate to enter property and place in discreet location Additionally, updates to state arrivals on each occasion were all out (early x 2 and late x 1 by more than 2 days each). Will not order through Kmart marketplace while they engage with this entity.

Ordered a table from eBay and the seller decided to send the main parts through a different shipping company and the bolts separately through Aramex. The tracking pages hasnt been updated in 5 days.... the estimated delivery was supposed to be today and nothing. Not even a updated day has been applied to the tracking information. The site lacks of updated information on tracked items Show details

⭐ 1 Star – Very disappointing experience I had a very disappointing experience with Aramex. I placed my order on Monday and was expecting an express delivery, but I spent the next 3–4 days constantly calling and following up to find out where my parcel was. I was repeatedly told that it would be delivered, but unfortunately, it did not arrive on… Read more
time. The parcel finally arrived this afternoon — after my friend had already travelled to Dubai. I urgently needed this parcel to give to her before she left, so the late delivery completely defeated the purpose of paying for express shipping.
The amount of stress and frustration this caused was unbelievable. I should not have had to spend days calling and chasing a courier company for a parcel that was supposed to be delivered express.
Very poor service, very poor communication, and extremely disappointing delivery experience. I would not recommend Aramex and will definitely avoid using them in the future.

Apparently, tried to deliver three times. They haven’t even been to the Property. I’ve asked them to leave over the fence then they said they can’t because it’s fragile so I left the entire gate open all day the gate the size that you can drive a car in and out of so not a little one fairly clear that no one came here it’s all on camera you guys are liars.
