“Product ordered, money taken, nothing delivered. Customer service is non existent. Delivery time is, I’m told, in breach of UK consumer law. Having to check regarding Europe. I believe that if you take peoples money you have to have a system where you are easily contactable, this is not the case here.
I would suggest that there are other market platforms where the same products can be purchased without the hassle. I’ve seen other reviews, unfortunately belatedly, that say this firm is a scam etc. I don’t know if that’s true or if it’s inefficient or apathetic but it’s peoples hard earned that they’re messing with. I certainly will not be using again.”
“NZ buyer here
Absolute Scam, Con artists
Absolute Scam, Can't believe I fell for this site.
I am now out of pocket 90 bucks for buying an "official item" which was clearly some cheap knock off straight from aliexpress.
Which actually had the aliexpress supplier info on it haha fml
Customer service is more like a BS smoke and mirrors machine. They will not respond to me any more. Have reported to police and the netsafe nz please kiwis jump on and do the same. These types are preying on us.

“Ordered some sunglasses off fruugo.ca thinking it was a Canadian website. Agreed to the cost of the glasses plus shipping.
I received a notification that I was to pay another $41 in duty fees. Contact fruugo saying I would now be paying more than if I were to purchase in a store. Told it was too late and had to accept the order, too bad so sad.
Order came in a damaged box. Complained to the courier who said to contact the retailer. No word from fruugo at all.”
“Terrible company . They don’t tell you your urgent “ in stock “ item is coming via China Post . They are over priced and deceptive . You will wait forever for a delivery . I’m waiting a month for a small 10x hand mirror that I overpaid for because I got the impression it would be delivered quickly . Don’t use this company !!!!!”
“If I could, I would rate 0 stars.
Totally the worst experience of ordering online..
I placed my order on 17APR21. They gave me a wrong track code, I realized this only yesterday because I made some calls in post offices!!
So I send a message for my order , they replied that OK sorry I had the wrong track code, they send me a new one , again it is wrong since I saw that package was delivered in May!!
I have sent 4 more emails and I am requesting a refund, but of course no-one answers. Also checked on other review sites that this is a usual tactic for fruugo.
So I would recommend to not use it!!
For sure we all can find more reliable sites to order.
Thanks
Dimi”
“Such a stupid online store i have ever used in my entire life, they obviously manipulating the review, everytime when i have asked question, all the reply they have sent was automatic reply. The worst online store, do not shop here. You can experience the worst customer service.”
“Waiting for a green neon blazer sincer May and obviously only pathetic excuses but no delivery. The truth is this site is a FRAUD!!! They do not have real products and they are only using your money.
Must alert my Bank to start an investigation for this lousy transaction!!!”
“I've ordered a product. Froogo keeps telling me that I've ordered the wrong item although I've sent them the full invoice with a photo of the item I've ordered. They keep on sending one line messages that I've ordered the wrong item. After about 10 emails they have not looked into their mistake. It seems CORRUPT.”
“I ordered a blue bear where the stars shine on the roof for my grandson and they sent me a pink unicorn no invoice or receipt came with it so disappointed and it hardly shines up at night and is now sitting in my spare room couldn't even get in touch with this company I tried for days”
“I ordered ink cartridges. never arrived. No refund just lots of fob off messages about how they are trying to resolve the issue. Its been nearly 2 months since I placed the order”
“used Fruugo as they were a .co.nz company and i am in NZ. turns out product retail was in Austria still not received 30 days on . was not given any idea of estimated delivery until after i had payed.”
“I ordered some cheap stuff, no big deal. In the order follow up they appeared as “delivered” but were never received. Nor was the refund I requested. I laid a claim thru Pay pal. Just another scum site, selling goods they never deliver, just to pocket your money.”
“3 months later and still have not recieved my order.. its a good job I didnt spend as much as most people. Not holding out mich hope at this point. As I went with the same product on Amazon.”
