Fraudulent company – Fraudulent company, advertised one product and sent another at half the size. Paid premium, got rubbish. They won't fix your issue. Will just steal your money.
Waiting on replies to emails! – I was told there is a error with my order and told id get a refund. I then replied asking what the error was and how much id be receiving back and got no reply! My order was split in two deliveries, one of which i havent yet received. Would be really nice to receive a answer! Half the products i did receive are missing parts anyway, very cheap quality!

Terrible service – I ordered a reconditioned Iphone which arrived defective - the battery required service ( at 79% health ) They must have known this when they sent it. It was also the wrong colour. Rather than getting me to send it straight back for repair, they asked me to fully charge it, use it for an hour and email them photos. I had to load the phone and log… Read more
into to my apple account etc. I believe these steps were designed to make it easier for me to just keep the phone since I had now invested my time in it. I have lodged two tickets with deals direct. Firstly, I have told them that I do not want a replacement since I do not have confidence in the company since they must have deliberately sent a defective item. They have declined even though according to their website you can cancel any order before it leaves the warehouse - I told them 4 times not to send it. Secondly I told them I want to return the phone when it arrives ( it arrives tomorrow - 29 days after I ordered the original ) because it is not the correct colour. They have also declined this even though their website says an item can be returned if it is the wrong colour. In this instance deals direct have acted unethically and their website is misleading. I have lodged two tickets with their customer care team, emailing them over 10 times to give them several opportunites to fix their mistakes and honour the terms of their return policy - all to no avail. My next step is to contact Consumer Affairs Victoria.

Happy with my new phone purchase! – Bought a new Google Pixel 7a phone from this website and overall I'm satisfied with my purchase. I was extremely skeptical about using the Deals Direct site after reading many of the negative reviews here regarding shipping times, lost orders and poor customer service - but decided to take the gamble anyway as the phone was advertised at a… Read more · 1
cheaper price than anywhere else.
The phones are international models (mine was from Japan) and are shipped from Hong Kong so be prepared to wait 2-4 weeks for your order to arrive.
After waiting about 2.5 weeks my order finally arrived and upon opening the box everything appeared to be brand new with stickers still on the phone and all accessories included! My only real concern is that if it ever needed to be replaced or fixed under warranty I'd have to return it through Deals Direct as it isn't covered under an Australian Warranty.

Rip Off – So I purchased some clothes off Deals Direct around A$300. When i didn't get some of my clothes (worth around A$25) delivered I contacted them and they said it was delivered by their courier on 11.10.22. I told them there was delivery on that date but there wasn't the clothes i am missing. Then they said it was delivered on 14.10.22 i told them… Read more
that nothing was delivered at my place on that day. After going back and forth with dates they said they will check with courier. After couple of days i messaged them foe update where i was told they were delivered on 11.10.22. I asked them for froof just because it may have been delivered to wrong address, but nothing. I escalated this to Deals Direct but same thing. when i asked for refund their reply is that they have delivered so they cant refund me. so now I have ended up paying for clothes without getting it delivered. total rip off wont even give one star

I owe Deals Direct money – I owe Deals Direct money since 2018. Because they have limited customer service, every time I have tried to pay them, they don’t deduct the money from my card. Very frustrating. It makes me feel like a thief. Show reply

Lingerie ASIAN size only – Lingerie Size is fairly accurate for waist, hips and bust measurements if you are 1.5m (5 foot) tall or less. If you are 1.8m (6 foot) or taller you will have the bust approx 150mm to 200mm (6-8 inches) below your breasts. Ordered AU 20-22
Scammers – I ordered two Katie’s buckle dresses, I received one but not the other. I notified Deals Direct immediately following delivery.

I have sent my order numbers etc. Invoice numbers… Read more
etc. Is this Company related to Rivers ? The same thing happened With Rivers I ordered two items, I received one but not the other item. I was refunded for the 2nd item from Rivers. I will be contacting Consumer Affairs. This is no way to treat Customers. Shame on you DD. I couldn’t find a phone number to speak to a Customer Service Manager. Does anyone have a contact number for DD.

Rip-off merchants Don't buy Sofa's on line ever unless you have sat on them or have seen the actual size – Purchased "3" seater sofa - turned out to be the smallest 3 seater sofa I have ever encountered. Reality it was a 2 seater. Not very comfortable either. I was offered a refund of $131.15 after paying $718. Couch had to be repacked in a box costing $50 and courier costs would be $249.99 to return it. My advice by direct from a real shop.

2059777, 2059452, 2059748, 2060421. My numerous requests and messages have gone unanswered. On 7/11 all items to be refunded acknowledged in message on "contact us", but no follow up since. I have been a very good customer of Deals, and this deliberate no contact is forcing me to get the ACCC involved, as this is criminal holding my items and not refunding them since 25th Oct.

Paid for product that has never been delivered – Paid for mobile phone on the 25th of July 2021 for my autistic daughters 13th birthday in August. The product was listed as expected delivery by the 8th of August. After contacting the company they said they would refund the money but then changed their delivery time to September. The product was never delivered. I have sent numerous emails with… Read more
the same response from DealsDirect, "they are chasing their supplier for a refund", mostly after I have had to once again email to prompt a response from them. They repeatedly told me they would get a response from the supplier within a day, but they take more than a week to respond. I have contacted the ACCC and will be contacting small claims court after I speak with Fair Trading. This is extremely bad customer service and it is now three and half months later. I have been buying from DealsDirect for years and will never purchase from them again. Buyers beware!

Faulty products – I purchased an electric treadmill, put it together over the weekend and the motherboard is faulty. Err07 shows when I try to start the machine. The booklet advises there is a fault with the wiring. I have gone into my deals direct account and written to them for a response, but I’ve had no reply. How long does it take to reply? I would like a new motherboard that works that can start the treadmill - or I want a full refund.
Still waiting for a response......... Poor customer service. Said they will look into it but still no response!!!!
Delivered the wrong product! – Although the response from DD was prompt, disappointed that the wrong product was delivered. They offered a 30% discount on the product I received, otherwise I could send the original incorrect product back for a full refund! As postage is expensive, could not justify sending it back so accepted the discount on the product I did not order. A few… Read more
