Sent pic of soundbar model & model no. - they then matched remote which was same as my original just no brand name - arrived quickly but what a piece of cheap crap. Instructions are useless as is remote. Sent an email saying so which they responded with “send us pics blah blah blah” Already did that and it got me nowhere. Got an immediate refund thru Paypal Steer clear - scammers Show details
On Sunday 16th November 2025 I purchased this for $19.99 with postage of $7.99. On Monday 1st December 2025 I received the remote but it wouldn't work so I would recommend not buying from them because they rip you off by selling you faulty stuff. Show details
Bought a remote for Changhong Led 19c 1000 TV, well that is what i ordered from there web site & payed $29.50 for it. I received a remote that would not change any channels or up or down the volume, no functions worked. Emailed them at first they said they would help so i asked for return address so i could send this non working remote back and… Read more
they could send me the right one. After that just got back a email saying they have created a ticket number and someone will contact me shortly. But no one does contact you. Very shifty & slimy people are running this business.

Ordered a couple of replacement Panasonic remotes, arrived on time & work perfectly , great service & great price ! Show details
After reading many negative reviews, I took a chance and bought from the website. I deeply regret it! This is a dropshipping site; the best option is to go to Aliexpress and buy directly. That way, you'll have more protection. With OzRemote, you can't contact the website, nor do you receive a tracking link or order confirmation. Trust me! Don't buy!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ You will not regret choosing this company. Outstanding customer service and excellent advice. The team went above and beyond to find the perfect replacement remote for my tv that cant pair with universal remotes. I would highly recommend Oz Remote Australia to anyone looking for a great shopping experience.. Show details
I ordered a remote for my tv and they sent me the wrong one. After having a conversation with the people there, they told me it is what i ordered. Well it wasn't even remotely like the one i ordered and he just stopped writing to me and that was it. scammers be very carful if you want to buy from them Show details
Positive reviews
I ordered a new remote for my older Panasonic tv then realised quite soon after that the problem was with my tv and not the remote. So I immediately emailed OZRemote and asked for my order to be cancelled, half expecting to have wasted my money. However I received a reply quite soon after, then a refund within a day or so. That's great service and I would certainly buy from OZRemote again. Show details
Ordered a remote for my Panasonic (old) AC. The remote looked exactly like my old one but I couldn't get it to pair. Contacted the company and they tried to help - offered advice on how to check if the infrared was working which it was, I honestly think it is the machine. They kept in contact and refunded my money without asking for the product to be returned. I found them to be efficient, helpful and provided excellent customer service. Show details
Ordered online a QT1D replacement remote for an old Soniq HD TV. The remote arrived in excellent condition and earlier than expected and at a good price . Ya cant ask for more than that. Ordered 20/5/2025 arrived 27/5/2025 Show details
Negative reviews
The only problem i had were some tracking gaps otherwise the remote arrived within 5 days and works perfectly. I was worried due to the many poor reviews but in my case all went well. Show details
An update to my review is that the remote is only working intermittently and will need to be thrown… Read more
need to be closed down – Remote buttons fell out after 3 days by just wiping it down, tried to get a refund or replacement and they just ignored me and would not respond, very bad sellers I wish I had of checked reviews before ordering from them.. their score says it all!! Do not waste your money avoid ozremote completely!!!

Tight butt – Okay after losing our remote so many times and not always finding it for hours or days I thought but a replacement one and since it’s a voice activated remote it costs more , I could buy a cheaper one on eBay but it won’t have that feature , so I found OzRemote and they sell the voice activated one for$49.99 otherwise eBay sells the non voice… Read more
activated for only $18 , so I was going to go with Ozremote , once I found it it did say free shipping $50 and over , well the remote is $49.99 and then they want to charge $7:99 for postage !!!!!!! Like WTH Really all for $0:01 , how stingy is that . I can’t believe they want to charge me $7:99 all because of $0:01 . Sorry but that’s just nonsense to me .

After reading many negative reviews, I feel it is fair to write about my very positive experience. I ordered a remote control for 15 years old SONY TV and it was delivered in one week. Of course, it is not an original SONY product (my TV is ancient), but it is an exact replica of the original (without SONY logo). And importantly, it works!
Very Happy Customer – I ordered a remote for my blu ray machine and I didn't have to wait long at all. I am very happy with my purchase it's perfect and works perfectly. Within a month or so I will be ordering more remotes as I have 3 more Blu ray players I need remotes for. Thank you to the staff at OZ remotes for a good experience.
Hesitant with early poor reviews but pleasantly surprised with outcome – Received my Sony remote replacement in a timely manner in good condition. It works fine on my TV. Communication with the seller was also very good.
Happy Customer – My remote replacement for my Yamaha Receiver arrived in two weeks and works perfectly! Glad to find this company and order before I read all these bad reviews. Show details
Dont buy – It does not work and made with cheap plastics. Dont be fooled. Just buy at Big W; their universal aircon remote. Show details
Remote didnt work and no response – same as most reviews here. I was sent a remote for our aircon unit, which didn't work from day one. I spent a week going back and forward, it's now a month and radio silence. Wont use them again
Replied to my email, then vanished – Useless. I emailed them, eventually got a reply. They asked for a pic, I sent it...then never heard from them again. Clearly they arent interested in offering anything but the laziest, most useless customer 'support' possible. No wonder their reviews are so bad. Show details
excellent service and great product – I was very impressed with the personal service I received from a very polite team member when I was inquiring about which remote control I need for a model which is no longer on the market. After sending a photo and all the needed information I was sent a link to the correct model I needed. I was also asked to send the order number once I'd paid… Read more
for the product. I glad I'd forgotten to check out the reviews before my paying. There were so many negative comments it would have put me off my purchase especially as I dislike ordering things online. I prefer to pick up in store so I know I can return it if need be. I needn't have worried as my package arrived within the week. I immediately tried it out and was delighted it worked perfectly. I would have no hesitation in recommending OZRemote to anyone looking for a replacement remote control. 10/10 for the service and product. Thank you.

Rubbish – QU WEI GONG FANG CO., LTD. Trading as "ozremote.com" (Might be half the problem) Sent wrong model AC remote. I was asked multiple times for photos which were sent promptly. Emails not acknowledged, just repeated requests for photos. Update: 10/01/24 Am still receiving emails asking for more photos of product despite my emails explicitly telling the company I DO NOT want to deal with them again. Show details
Would give 0 stars if possible – Don't buy from these people! Purchased remote, that claimed to have same functions as original. It didn't. No reply via direct email to them. Eventually got response through PayPal and Ozremote agreed to refund once the remote was sent back at my expense. I sent a tracking number as well, but never received my refund. Terrible company that should be shut down! Show details
Same Same – Ordered a Hisense original TV remote control as the description & pictures were correct showing brand name & part number on the remote, however what I received was a China made aftermarket compatible used remote with worn out symbols on the buttons & different placement of the channel, volume & other functions. Paid $42.00 for a $2.00 remote that I couldn't tune into the TV to use!! Show details
Terrible, don’t buy from them – Bought a remote which did not work. Emailed them to ask for a refund. He asked me to send a picture which I did. Then he asked for a video to prove it wasn’t working ( which I sent). Now he’s asking for another $8 to send me another remote which probably won’t work as well. I really wish they weren’t allowed to get away with this. I have had to escalate to PayPal, hopefully I get my money back
DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS SITE – Do not use this company !!!!! Remote is useless - contacted the company many many times by email with a new response (way of holding off) giving a refund. Had enough so I've lodged a complaint with PayPal...wish I'd read these reviews before buying. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY Cheap inferior products Show details
I wish I never found this company – Approx. 3 weeks ago I ordered a remote for my Samsung TV and, have to admit, it arrived quickly but did not work. Tried new batteries, nothing worked. The remote had it's own mind and did things I didn't ask for, especially the pointer. Tried to contact OZremotes twice through their website "Contact" but no reply. At the end I disputed the… Read more
transaction and got my money back through the bank. At that point of time, they contacted me and offered a refund, minus the postage. I declined as I received the full amount spent from the bank. If I can recommend - don't buy anything from them! Poor quality products with no after sale support.
Surprised !! – I ordered a remote RC017SR for my Marantz AV Surround Receiver on 29/04/2023. On 05/05/2023 I received an email from OzRemote saying my remote has been sent and there was a tracking number included: 33XJP294663801000931509 Unfortunately the tracking number from OzRemote didn't work in the tracking app link provided (https://www.17track.net/en) or… Read more
Australia Post parcel tracking. I then did a check on ProductReview.com.au and saw the multiple 1 star posts !! OMG, have I been ripped off ?!?!? On the 09/05/2023 I emailed OzRemote back saying the tracking number didn't work. They replied with an email showing me a copy of the tracking schedule, with it saying that my remote had arrived in Brisbane !! On 12/05/2023 I received an email from Australia Post, my remote had landed in Brisbane and would be delivered soon, with the tracking number: 33XJP2946638
SURPRISE !! Today my remote turned up. I put new batteries in and it works !!
Take out: People like to vent when something goes wrong and Product Review is a great place for that, but people hardly ever give a good review when things go as expected. I wonder how many OzRemote customers have actually got a working remote control but never left a review!!
Only reason they didn't get 5 stars was the incorrect tracking number !!!
2 expensive dodgy renotes – I’ve bought from these guys before and it was great but last time I got two remotes, one doesn’t allow batteries at all as battery compartment is loose, the other it’s also loose, it works but have to take back off nearly every single time to adjust them which doesn’t work for my small kids. I asked for a replacement and they told me to clean the… Read more
battery compartment. Yes. That’s right. Clean the brand new remotes with dodgy battery compartments So I spent $50 on two dodge remotes, one that I can’t use at all
