Package arrived without screws and hardware required to assemble, which clearly renders the item unusable. Have been advised to return/exchange however the item is now out if stock. Very disappointing.
Kmart removed the Wishlist feature on their website, and has therefore lost me as an online customer. I prefer to browse through the kmart site when I have time to spare, save items into my personal wish list, then transfer the wish list goods into the shopping cart when convenient. I don’t have time to continually go back and forth through the website to relocate the items I wanted. I also prefer to buy multiple items in one transaction to avoid shipping costs.
When I contacted Kmart in early April 2022, this was the written response – “Unf...
Read moreortunately, certain features such as My Favorites and Wish List has temporarily been removed due to the recent website upgrade. These features will be coming back sometime in the future as we continue transforming our website in making it better for you”. Kmart, you are missing out on purchases until you bring back the wish list. I just don’t have the time, nor do I want to pay for shipping unnecessarily.Thank you for reaching out! Our team is currently working on an update for this feature on our website, which will be made available as soon as possible. Thank you!

My rug has gone missing despite saying fully shipped. I was even provided a tracking number yet allied express has not even received the item. I Have rung SEVERAL times and received a different answer each time however no straight explanation. I was told I would hear back within 48 hours.. didn’t hear anything and again had to contact, was then told the rug was definitely there but just hadn’t been picked up by the courier and that I will hear within 7 days.. 7days passed and I heard nothing. I then had a Contact again and they said that the c...
Read moreourier must have not scanned it and it must be missing. I rung the courier allied express and they have no record of it at all, they explained that Kmart had not even sent them an investigation into my missing product so they can not even look for it as they don’t know what the item even is. AGAIN contacted Kmart and had to tell the girl she needed to send them an investigation so they can find it if it had been picked up by then.. all she could do she said was contact her office and they will then do that. I asked to speak to them myself and she said no. The only solution they can give me is a refund, I do not want a refund. I want the rug I purchased to be found as it is no longer available online. I am extremely frustrated and disappointed !Hi Jackie, we're so incredibly sorry for any frustration caused by your experience shopping online with us.

Every time I attempt Kmart online shopping, most of the items I select are suddenly sold out online by the time I reach the checkout. Is it that hard to get your staff to go and get the stock off the shelf? All other stores are able to access all of their stock. Kmart is the only store that not only has ‘online stock’ as opposed to just ‘stock’ but also seems to be chronically out of it. I always end up giving up and buying what I need from Big W or Target. Slightly more expensive for 100 x better quality. And Target always has everything I need because they are capable of sourcing their stock from all their stores all over Australia.

Ordered some items for click and collect. Website mentioned all items were in stock in store and will be available for collection by 4pm on the same day. Come 4pm only 2 items were available, 1 cancelled and no ETA for the other 5. It really shouldn’t have been advertised as being available on the same day when it’s only half a truth (or maybe even less considering only 2/7 items were available). How can you operate a business based on half truths?

Literal HOURS, over the past 3 days. Latest up to date Chrome browser and new iPhone. It’s doing my head in to see so many people experiencing the same exact problem for more than a month now.

Hi there! We’re glad to inform we’re updating our website. You may notice your wishlist isn’t currently available, but this feature will be returning later in the year.
I just spent hours shopping online and adding items to the cart and then all of a sudden the cart was empty (fyi: i'm using latest and up-to-date firefox browser). I really hate the new website. Where is the 'wish list'? At least with the wish list you could add items to it which were saved and I could access every time I logged in. Please bring back the 'wish list' and make the website more user friendly; bring back the option to view more items per page. Please fix the website glitches otherwise customers will go elsewhere!

Place an order a few day ago & expect shipping was the following day. Just received an email 4 days later to say my order has been cancelled due to it being out of stock. This is now the 4-5 time in the last 12months they have done this. Horrible company to order from
We're so sorry to hear about your cancelled order, Ian. Sometimes the team may be unable to fulfil your order, in this case we do have to cancel. We sincerely apologise for any disappointment caused and will share your experience with our team.

Shame on me for thinking using this “Get It Fast” option again (after a very disappointing experience previously) would be any better. DO NOT USE THIS OPTION for your click and collect. The service provider doesn’t communicate and the items are NOT PICKED UP FAST i.e the same day as advertised. Also, during my previous terrible interaction with this service, when calling Kmart to discuss my order they said multiple times that “once an order is placed, it cannot be changed”. 9 days is not what I consider a “get it fast” option. Additionally, ano...

Ordered a bedhead from Kmart at quite a premium price. The delivery arrived & the delivery personnel seemed to be in such a hurry. He dumped the order in my parking & ran away. I did the heavy lifting. I am noticing Kmart is not staying true to last mile delivery. This experience leaves a lot to be desired. Really unhappy. Get much better service from Target. They seem to really care about their consumers.

Please stop using Allied Express as your courier.
I have back injury and that is the reason I have to rely on online shopping for bulk item/s. However, Allied Express staff refused to deliver a very heavy parcel to my front door at first floor.
Kmart, please upgrade your online shopping system and allow customers who willing to pay a bit more and get a proper delivery to upstairs.
If upgrading your online shopping system is not available, please warn the customers with bold warning sign before they checkout some very heavy items, so they could at least have a choice to stop purchasing something that they cannot get it back home upstairs.
Hi there, we are sorry to hear this and will be sure to share your feedback with our team. If you’d like to discuss this further, please contact our Online Customer Service team via 1800 051 800 or bit.ly/Kmart-Feedback.

Frustrating, disappointing, discouraging and don't waste your precious time.
Spent an hour or so compiling items into our click and collect bag, left the PC to measure up for items, when returned bin is empty and all the hard work, time and effort is wasted, absolutely a waste of time, come on K mart, surely you can see you need to fix issues with your online shopping site, distasteful experience.

I've had issues with the Kmart website for a long time. I contacted customer support quite a long time ago as I couldn't save items into the Favourites/Wish List and I kept losing the items from my cart. My issues were referred to the technical support area but the issues were never resolved. I created a new account in hope that I would no longer experience the issues. Instead, the Kmart website now no longer allows for saving items in Favourites/Wish List and still I keep losing items from my cart. I just lost everything I had been adding over...

Questions & Answers
I have place an order 2 or 3 days ago. And Still I havent received any order confirmation and receipt in my email. But I have been deducted in my afterpay account already. How can I check if order was really confirmed and being processed? And how can I track my order?

So don't expect much online help either.

Read mored contact number associated with your account we can check this for you.Hello,
I placed an order online (items that are large).
I originally selected that the items not be left unattended upon delivery and rather that they are signed for, under the impression that said items would be sent together, and thus I would be able to ensure that either myself or someone else would be home on the day or at the time of the expected delivery.
*After* placing the order I was advised that it would be likely that each item would be shipped individually, dependant on what stock was available at each warehouse, which I completely understand. Although, I cannot ensure that either myself or someone else can be home to sign for said items on what could be potentially spread out over 3 separate business days.
Additionally, I do not particularly and potentially want each item to be sent back to the nearest Kmart store because no one was home to accept and sign for the delivery, only to have a refund automatically processed, when instead - any form of communication could be taken to contact myself to then organise the collection from the store itself if the delivery was unsuccessful.
Furthermore, I would then have to wait for the refund to be processed, placed said order again, and pay an additional $80+ delivery fee.
Am I able to change it so that the items can be left unattended rather than signed for?
