AVOID! Deplorable customer service!
Ordered product, it was faulty and came in unsealed box. Instead of refunding straight away, they argued on many factors, including if the product was even faulty! Disgusting. Deal with most other companies which will work for the customer, not themselves. Reporting to fair trade!

Poor customer service
Purchased multiple items- charging dock did not work. Like other customers I was made to reply to at least 8 emails, send photos, & then a video, it was like I was on trial. Will never use this company again, wasted so much of my time with the constant emails asking for something different every time.
Still do not have a satisfactory outcome to the faulty charging dock despite them seeing that it doesn't work in the video.
Just dont waste your time
Bought a blender. It stopped working soon although expensive... Spoke to KG. The amount of time that I spent speaking to them was worth more than the actual product. They kept changing their mind about what they wanted me to do. I sent a photo. Then had to use a link to upload a video. I then waa asked to cut the power cable of the item (although you could just put it back anyway - redundant), they then asked me to leave my house during a lockdown - then said after, to go to the post office to send back the sticker at the bottom of the item tha...
Read moret has the product info, although I sent them a picture already, they also said I have to pay to send it, I complained they said fine send the item we will give you a prepaid seal bag, I said I would but as you said you didn't need it, it is already deeply covered in the trash by this time - if you want to come grab it awesome but I am not I replied, they said fine send the sticker but you have to pay and go to the post office, I said I refused and will contact consumer protection and the ombudsman and third party agents they are involved with a ridiculous experience that I have incurred and an absolute disgraceful consideration for those with autoimmune and mental health. Do yourself a favour avoid this experience and go elsewhere.Suraj M.Sydney, NSW

No post purchase support
I purchased soda stream few months ago and it started leaking air. I contacted them assuming they will give me some insight to lodge my issue assuming it has 24 months warranty. They keep giving me bogus solutions like press button for longer time, check if cylinder is tight. I even sent them recording but they keep suggesting stupid things all day. Really had appreciated if they just said can't do instead of wasting my time.

Misleading
Their "one day despatch" is misleading and deceptive. They do not despatch in that time. I received a damaged item that was not as described. Not the same item that was listed. PayPal claim lodged. Will never purchase there again. Be warned. During PayPal claim the seller said I could return the item (at my expense) and they would deduct an administrative charge from the refund. Put the seller on notice that this was not a 'change of mind' return. I quoted that the Australian Consumer Law required the seller to pay for the return of a defective...
Read more item. Almost immediately, the seller affected a full refund (without me sending the item back). This action suggests to me that this seller has been warned by PayPal and / or the consumer authorities to act properly in such situations. So assert your rights with this mob.JessGreater Melbourne (Metropolitan), VIC

Digital Dual Thermometer Clock
Purchase a digital thermometer clock off catch, sold by kg electronics. I requested a replacement, got sick and tire of email back and forth.
arrived. Time display work, but did not display inside or outside temperature!
Email customer service [i sent 8 emails in total with photo's, received 8 back] there response can you email me the instructions, they were on the back of product. Instructions were to set clock, temperature display not working! They said maybe i am doing something wrong, what! I said I will not purchase anything else from them, $15 it cost, i put it in the bin, customer service sucks, stay away from them.

Olay Cream
Received by items crushed and open. Items are nearly 2 years old. Contacted the seller they keep saying its fine. Dates should be listed on your items same as food if the item has a exp date.
Avoid at all costs
I also have postal addresses issue were defaulting to my alternate as well as my home address. They refuse to acknowledge it and say it is my issue even though I know I put in the right address. even after emailing there team less than 13hr after confirmation of the order the refused to change the address and now after 12 business days and my order not arriving the want to charge another inflated delivery fee.
possibly the worst customer service I have been subjected too.

This is the terrible marketplace in melbourne
Ordered a alarm clock from their marketplace and waited for month to arrive and asking for more money to deliver on the same address again and even they do their private delivery partners and they don’t deliver your item and they will ask you for more money to deliver it again

Terrible Service!
The postal addresses keep defaulting to my name even when sent to other people. They refuse to acknowledge it and say it is my issue even though I know I am putting in the right address.

Still waiting for acknowledgement of my complaint
Received my Dimplex 26 inch electric fire box around the middle of August this year. The item arrived promptly and well packaged. But upon switching it on for the first time the heater started burning and a part fell into the box. Contacted Glen Dimplex as written in attached form but they referred me to KG Electronics the seller. Over the last two weeks have sent 3 emails asking for assistance and a refund and not received any communication back at all. Cost $1600. Very disappointed so far.

Broken upon arrival - seems dodgy.
Bought a homedics sound machine. Item that I received was broken. Not easy to get a refund - seems dodgy. I even provided a video to show that the item was not working.

Makes time easy to manage
I bought it on Ebay. Nice and convenient size to be able to take with me, wherever, I go. Sleek and stylish, easy to operate. Was easy to purchase online.

Great product Excellent Service
Bought a Buddee AM/FM Dual Alarm Digital Clock Radio which made a buzzing/humming sound that kept us up at night. I contacted KG who immediately sent me a return sticker that I just had to take to the post office to return. They sent me a new one straight away and it is perfect. Communications was fantastic. Great experience. Thanks so much!

Bargain! Love it.
Bought a Soda Stream, absolutely love it. Took a bit of time to get to me, but unfortunately everything is with Aus Post right now! Not their fault... They were super friendly and responsive when I checked in.
Would recommend!

Made my first purchase with KG Electronic today via Catch who I have purchased from previously. Your product price attracted me to deal with KG Electronic ( order # C39323118-A ,
tracking #GNY4841025 ). I have some concerns with some of the negative Feedback on your reviews , However; you have some good positive reviews as well. Can you advise who your courier is , as the tracking # does not register. Your assistance is appreciated.
Regards
Kenny

Kenny, it would be Australia Post. KG assign a tracking number BEFORE they despatch it to Australia Post. Might take up to 72 hours before the tracking info is shown.
Patricia N.asked
I am a new customer and want to buy a Heller Fan Heater. They have a good rating. My concern is that there are so many negative reviews on your Company that I am questioning my purchase. The complaints on line appear to be 3 years old. Has the online purchasing improved in the last few years.
Appreciate the odd question but your prefer to go direct to the selling Company rather than via Kogan.

Hi guys ordered to Marley headphones that were dispatched on the 11th of December still have not received. When will I receive my headphones?
1 answer
Hi Kez I've dealt with this company before and not with good results. Keep on top of them, message them at least once a day and call them as well. If you've paid by paypal open a request straightaway otherwise contact your bank. I know they do what seems to be to good to be true deals, but with my experience that's all they are to good to be true! Best of luck and I hope everything works out ok for you☺

Hi Ryan,
We're really sorry to hear that you didn’t enjoy your experience with usI...
Read more I have just looked up your order and can see we had provided you with a pre paid label to return unit at no cost to you as you advised us the item was faulty. We received the unit back and it was found to not be faulty after being tested and we offered 2 different solutions for you. Sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused. Kind regards, KG Electronic.
