“Placed an online order, only received 1 of the 3 items. Contacted them and they refused to issue a refund because their warehouse dimensions said the items would fit, yet the actual box I received did not match their information. Fraudulent activity is happening somewhere in the company. Buyer beware.”

“I went to the new toys r us at metrotown and was helped by the manager Ethan who was one of the most helpful, patient and nice person I have dealt with in customer service in a very long time. He was insanely knowledgeable of the particular item I was asking about and at the time knew nothing about. I walked out understanding the product and 100% satisfied with my purchases.”

“Worst experience ever never loose you time , your money and respect . An oculus of 1500 dhs was bought last year and before the warranty finished I informed them that the oculus has a glitch , they dragged me till after warranty ( literally I have been contacting them for 5 months ) and manager( Khalil) promised to help but no as his employees didn’t do anything and didn’t care about me putting a review although he was informed! What a bad after sales customer service , and reputation ! I hope this will go to the higher management at least !”

“Ordered a drone, it arrived as promised but was faulty. Return label received quickly, item returned on the 11th March, it is now the 23rd May and still waiting for my refund. Messages from customer services keep blaming their finance team for the delay. It's now been escalated for a 10th time apparently.”

“Poor refund , exchange and credit policy. Essentially they do not offer any refunds or exchanges or even credits. They will only refund in the event the product is faulty so make sure you buy exactly what you need in the correct size or make. Terrible customer service and understanding.”

“It has been 2 months since I send back a faulty item. I am still waiting for a refund. Each time I contacted them I am told I will get my refund. I will not ever buy from these again and will tell all my friends not to either Totally unacceptable waiting time for a refund”

“Do not use - took my money for an item they knew they did not have in stock. Did not notify me that the item had not been dispatched. Did not contact me about my order until I emailed them 2 weeks later. Told me my refund would take 2 weeks. Messaged after a further 4 weeks, still no money and a generic response about it being with the accounting department. Terrible business and terrible customer service. Do not waste your money.”

“Ordered a Xmas gift on 21st December and paid for express delivery which states 1-2 working days on their website. The gift should’ve arrived before Christmas. Nothing was received so on 28th December I requested they cancel my order and issue a full refund. Conveniently the order was then dispatched and I was told I’d need to return the item once it was received. The returns process is antiquated - you have to email them to request a returns label which takes a few days for them to reply and send it to you. On 4th January I returned the item and tracking confirms that Toys R Us received the goods back on 6th January. After 11 days I didn’t hear anything from them about a refund (most companies just process it without having to be asked) so on 17th January I chased and was advised I’d have to wait another 7-14 WORKING DAYS to get my money back. Of course, 14 working days has now passed and no refund has been received. I wouldn’t recommend anyone buys from Toys R Us. You won’t receive the goods on time and getting your money back is impossible.”

“Ordered Lego with next day delivery payment was taken immediately and the order processed. Over a week later it had still not arrived. No response from customer services giving them the final day for it to arrive before we went away for Christmas. I then saw the reviews online and thought I had been scammed. I contacted them to cancel the order on the day we left for holiday knowing that it hadnt even been posted. Customer Services eventually responded saying I couldn't cancel and gave me a tracking number that didn't exist suggesting they hadn't posted it. They did post the package however it was very late and was posted when we were away so it was left on the doorstep. I'd avoid using the company again, they don't do next day delivery, they obviously lie about shipping the item and the customer service is slow and unhelpful. I feel they could have cancelled the order but chose not to and then deliberately sent it knowing it was too late, the order was cancelled and I would be away. It even took them 2 weeks to respond to the refund request on PayPal. This company are using the ToysRUs branding that we knew and trusted but whoever is operating it now clearly has very poor standards and it isn't the same. We did get our goods but it was very late arriving and a stressful experience. Best to avoid unless you are not too fussed when your items will arrive.”

“Just a friendly reminder that there return policy is ‘unopened, within 30 days, with original receipt, the blood of your maternal grandmother and the sole of your first born child’ we’re sorry for any inconvenience and we look forward to stealing your money again in the future.”

“I purchased a present of a Lego toy at… I purchased a present of a Lego toy at £29.99 for my grandsons birthday from toy's r us delivery was meant to be in 2 to 3 days but I waited till a week later before emailing( postal strikes) to see if it had been sent out. I received an email asking for a screenshot of my order which I sent and received an email saying there was a problem I believe in the warehouse. I then after a few more days asked for my order or a refund, I then got an email back saying that they would refund my £29.99 in 7 to 14 days I emailed them back saying that I thought that this was unacceptable as I needed this money to purchase elsewhere I then got an email back saying that this was within there rights! I placed my order on the 26th October and it is now the 15th November well over the 14 days they said that they would refund me by, but I still have not received or heard anymore from them as of yet. I thought that as there shops used to be very good, there new online shopping service would have been as good as there stores were how wrong am I? 😢 Date of experience: 26 October 2022”

“I feel like I’m in a nightmare with this company!! This is my second review all because I am still waiting for my refund? The bank is now involved trying to get my money back from this horrible place!! To cut a long story short I ordered two toys for my grandson, I had no confirmation email yet they didn’t hesitate to take my money! They then asked me what I had ordered? As they had no account of an order from me?? They also took another 51p from my account which the bank said was an ongoing payment?? When I asked them about this they denied all knowledge about it!! Needless to say the bank cancelled this immediately!! It’s now been 3 weeks and still no sign of my money arriving back into my account!! I have sent emails as long as your arm, they continually makes lame excuses!! Never ever use these scammers!! That is all they are!! This is by far the worst online shopping experience I have ever encountered!! An absolute disgrace!! I was reluctant to give one star, unfortunately there is no option for zero star!!! If you do have the unfortunate need to buy from this place, then I suggest you check exactly what they are taking out of your account?? Taking such a small amount on a regular basis probably would go undetected!! Isn’t this what scammers do?? They take a small amount and rob people blind!! They should be investigated and closed down!! !!!!”

“The manager Byran or something was so rude I bought toys and paperbags and he was called for authorizing and he got there didn't greet and cont to say there's nothing that can be done never looked at me but spoke to the employees when I asked what was going in only the employee responded and he just did the refund and took the stuff I wanted to buy. The worst experience. I will never use this store again based on this treatment as why would employees be friendly and the Manager rude. What's worse is I always buy at toysrus”

“I wish I could give zero stars. DO NOT give this company any of your money. An order processed and money taken that had been cancelled and now it is over a month and still no money back. Absolutely disgusting that in these times a company is allowed to keep a persons money for over a month. Who knows when this will be refunded now. Apparently they are behind with refunds. I hope Consumer Affairs can help. What a shambles, I will NEVER buy from them again. An absolute disgrace.”
