Same as many others have found, disgraceful customer service. Actually non existent
I recently tried to call IKEA starting on the 28/2 about my $450 returns card had expired and would they override the expiration as I have had Covid lost my job and been unwell and forgot I had to use voucher. 3 calls made Yes my fault I forgot it’s like me going and stealing from there business
other companies are advertising extra time to use vouchers due to Covid over the last 2 years
After many calls and since my first email sent on the 3/3/22 with no reply and no one wanting to help on the phone after asking for it to be escalated.I went to IKEA at Tempe Sydney Australia 12/3/22 and the manager at customer Service just didn’t want anything to do with me kept saying call the customer service line, I tried to tell him I had and I was kept on hold each time for 20-30mins and when I got through I had asked to escalate higher which wasn’t happening. Pretty much treated the same way by phone, email. So thats why I went in person thinking it is the best way to work with them. WOW how wrong I was Way worse! his attitude that it’s ok to take over $400 of my money and treat me with contempt and when I said you’re happy for me to put a bad review up he said go ahead do it and walked away and left the girl at the counter with me who at least was saying sorry. I would hate to think how many people are being ripped off and treated not like a customer just a problem they want nothing to do with. Ikea has no customer service skills or empathy. I understand from a business point, but they truly don’t care they have my money now so I’m inconsequential to a big company
If Ikea train staff and managers to treat customers like this or your company’s values are acceptable in your mind IKEA really needs to get their morales right

Yes my fault , but it’s a lot of money for me. other companies are advertising extra time to use vouchers

And If that’s what you train your managers or your company’s way of working with people IKEA really needs to get their morales right
I work in customer service and would be reprimanded if I had that tone and attitude towards our customers it’s just down right rude unhelpful basically told it’s my fault voucher ran out. I guess they have never forgotten anything,a bit of compassion and common sense would be good. Like let me see if I can try to help you would have been a good start
from the manager. I will never buy anything from IKEA again. People CHECK your gift return cards are in date or you will lose your money remember it’s your money!
