Never repaid deposit – Promised to return deposit but after 2 years, nothing. Time and again they told us they would refund but nothing to date. Be very careful with this company

Cane java TERRIBLE – Paid money for product, never got it. I made complaints to the police and consumer people but no outcome. I find it hard to believe that in Au you can have scams that are never followed up and that they are allowed to continue. Show details

Update on review posted 2019 – In order to have my items released from Melbourne Port, I had to pay them what was an outstanding debt owed by Cane Java. The debt was about half what it would have cost me to walk away and buy elsewhere. I have a signed agreement for Cane Java to repay the debt witch is now well overdue. Despite promises, they have not honoured payment for… Read more

principal and interest in any respect whatsoever. For the past four months I have not been able to make contact with Ancha and can only conclude that he and his company have gone underground. I initially had compassion for Ancha in his struggles but it appears to have been misplaced. My recommendation is don't risk your money with purchases from this business.

SCAM! Do not fall for it and loose your money!! – I ordered and paid for furniture that I never received. What I have received is a lot of excuses over the last 9 months. This is marketed as an enticing, affordable company, but after investigating this is a business run from overseas, with a storage facility as their business address. Show details

Cane Java - DO NOT ORDER and PAY FOR ANYTHING FROM THEM!!!!! – We made the mistake of ordering and paying for $1600 worth of bed and bedside tables from this dodgy Cane Java so called business back in September 2019. Despite repeated attempts to contact the company via their representative (Ancha) and despite being promised practically every month and now week that our items would be delivered they have yet… Read more

to do so.

Make no mistake - this company is a scam at best. Steer clear of them and do not buy from them.....ever.

I have now initiated proceedings with QLD Office of Fair Trading to take this matter much further.

Below 1 Star. Fraud Company. Liars – I ordered 3 barstools early March through amazon however he would not respond to it and finally asked me to cancel purchase and re-purchase through his webpage. Paid $490 for the chairs. He initially promised that they would arrive in 10 days. After 3 months of waiting and asking for an update back and forth he decided to use "covid-19" as an… Read more

excuse for his shortcomings. He would not provide me with tracking details as he claimed there was. He kept giving us false hope and false information. He also ordered in the wrong chairs for us even after i requested he send us a photo of them out of fear of this exact scenario and he didn't. Eventually he said that he is unable to send them to Sydney (after we paid for shipping too) and offered to refund us our money. We have now been trying to get this "refund" off him for the past 4 weeks and he's just an absolute Liar! We threatened to take legal action and have NSW Fair Trading interfere if he didnt pay within the week. Claimed he was going to pay on the Friday. Then completely ignored it. I told to him at least send us half the amount ( $245) Now he's telling me that "when he has the money he will send it". I find it so hard to believe that someone can't even send $245 which is only half the amount, over the course of 4 weeks. He is a scam!!!

Now we are taking legal actions and nsw fair trading will be interfering. I highly recommend everyone to report him to fair trading because he will be fined for this and forced to pay back all the money he took.

Follow Up to CANE JAVA – Further to my original post I can tell you this place does not exist. The storage facility in Dandenong is only full of containers, yes he has one there but they will not let him have it until he pays back rental. He has been back in Indonesia for a long time, I doubt he will be back. The other address he gives people in Melbourne I think also in… Read more

Melbourne is vacant land on a Industrial estate. So do not waste your time and energy and money on trying to track him down, he has many many names he goes under. But I would ask you contact Gumtree and ask they remove him, I have done so, sent all relevant copies from here to them but they have done nothing.

A Complete Scam – Ordered and paid ($1580) for goods July 2019. I was advised an October delivery originally. I kept getting stalled and stalled every month. At one point they trickled in a small amount of product in November 2019 (incorrect items). I have been very patient but I now realise this is some kind of scam. I have not received my large hutch that was… Read more

custom ordered and they have stopped replying to my messages, emails and phone calls. I chased up their google details and it seems the address is no longer accurate also. I served a letter of demand but I'm not confident the addresses supplied to ACN and ASIC are relevant anymore. I won't give up on hunting them down and their details removed from Facebook.

Terrible business! Do not buy from this company – It is not really a company. Ancha begged me to purchase through Cane Java, I paid in full and three months later still no product. I begged for a refund for weeks and weeks and finally received a refund after many weeks of trying. Still no product. Do yourself a favour and do not purchase from Cane Java. Show details

Java Cane and other names – This company is a scam but they do have a small shop in Wellington St Collingwood Vic. The address in Dandenong nth is a storage facility only stores junk. He expects everyone to pay first and then you never see him again. He is on Gumtree under the name... anchadsyah 0406660708 tel. He runs under many names he says are his, the one in Collingwood is very small, even told me the goods are made overseas. He is a piece of work. Show details

Scammer - takes your money - delivers no product - AVOID! – Paid $450 for a table from Cane Java in October 2019.. it is now end of March 2020 and nothing delivered. Initially there was a litany of excuses for the (multiple) delays, and now total silence from Cane Java, all emails bounce back etc. Avoid this company at all costs and don't be lured in by the insta-worthy photos on their Facebook page - this… Read more

business is nothing but a scam to steal your money. How they are allowed to keep their website and Facebook page open when they are trading as an illegitimate business is beyond me. If I could give them zero stars I would.

Avoid this business – Unfortunately I read the review too late. I have ordered an egg chair custom made from this company. Received invoice, paid and was going to take a month to receive the item. Unable to contact company on the phone now and all email addresses bounce back except one. Now read the owner has fled back to the Philippines. I will take this further but hoping someone else might see this and stop them wasting and losing their money.

Avoid this business – Two peacock rattan sofas I purchased on behalf of wedding hire businesses on 6 August 2019 for delivery to Cairns, QLD and 12 August 2019 to Newcastle, NSW with promised delivery first by 10 September and then by 20 September 2019 failed to be delivered by Cane Java. On 23 September I had to refund the Newcastle client for non-supply as it… Read more

wouldn't make their couples' wedding deadline.

Then, despite being promised on 24 September the Cairns order would be delivered 10 October, a notification on 7 October the sofa would not make the deadline, required me to make a second refund.

To date a $600 refund from Cane Java of $2,600 owing was paid on 18 October - nothing has been paid since.

Cane Java has ignored a magistrate's statement of claim and have been served with a court judgment to pay for non-supply of goods plus costs which will now cost over $3,100.

It's bad enough if vendors don't meet your deadline but failing to refund for non-supply is unethical and illegal.

Update: The director of Cane Java has left Australia for the Phillipines. The company's ASIC address (a home) has been rented to new tenants. The listed address on Google My Business does not exist at 2/15 Greens Rd, Dandenong. The pickup address showing on Facebook as 45 Venture Court, Dandenong is a couple of shipping container boxes. There are two or three cane chairs outside one container boxes. It is NOT a shop. The street address of Storax, 142 Frankston-Dandenong Road, Dandenong is a storage warehouse like Wilson Storage.
