“Worst experience of on-line shopping ever. Zara have taken my money for a jacket but no jacket received. l want my money back. Customer Service is so bad and you go around in circles and they ask you the same questions and you get nowhere with them. Please don't order with this company.”

“Terrible online service. After 11 days my order is still in the headquarters..and still they can not provide an arrival date?!! Every single time that I request an answer they say they will let me know once the order is sent and, like this, the days go by”

“I actually loved Zara o der very frequently and never usually have a problem But I recently ordered online before level 5 restrictions. I needed to return my items but I don't have a printer I got onto the Zara what's app to be assisted at first seemed helpful telling me an post would print my label off to return as I don't have a printer all libarys are closed where I would usually go . Went back to Zara explaining an post said they couldn't they assisted go to another an post that they should print of label. I went again today they said they could print of label if Zara sent it to an post. Got back onto Zara today literally no help said go to a neighbour I ordered off them last week I said could they arrange to out my return labels in that no. Then I said shops are open on 1st of December could I just get a refund but still no said I was outside the 30 days even though shops are closed . Will not be spending any more money here and will be spreading the word to family and friends.”

“Be very careful ordering online. I have placed an order that was delivered to my old address despite the fact that I updated my address online. They now are acting like it is not their responsibility and don’t want to help find a solution. I have talked 3 times in the past month to customer service and they tell me they cannot help because the course said he delivered it. they even have transfer me and hung up. When I call customer service I ask to speak to the manager; I literally have to beg before they transfer. me. A real nightmare. I would absolute would avoid ordering from them online. Very Very poor customer service.”

“Purchased three items, the sales assistant was miserable from the beginning, terrible attitude, she said receipt was in the bag and gave me my change. I walked away as it was busy checked bag, no receipt, checked change was short changed. Went back told they would wait until end of day takings checked, have never felt so mistreated, got upset in the end gave me my money, I offered to leave my name and number should there be a problem with cashing up. Will never go to this Zara again, the staff in Spain are so much nicer. Please at least train your staff to smile and be polite.”

“Never got my delivery and ZARA refuse to refund me.m I set the delivery address to my work, which is in a building with high footfall and multiple businesses. It was addressed to the business name I work for, therefore should be delivered to this address. We have a reception team available between 06:30-22:15, so no excuses on delivery. I did not receive it, and whilst the courier could have dropped the package anywhere in the building, anyone can pick it up and take it home. I never received the package, and they are refusing to refund me, because their courier is lazy and decided to leave it anywhere in the building, except for where it should have been taken to, which is the business delivery address. Customer service team are a joke and didn’t get back to me for 2 WEEKS! So I had to chase them. I even offered to provide CCTV of the date and time of confirmed delivery, and no response. ZARA is a joke and should be ashamed of themselves how this has been handled. All I’m left with, is not delivery, out of pocket and completely infuriated!”

“Ordered a jacket to belivered to store for pickup. I ordered last Monday online (28 Sept) and it finally arrived today (09 Oct). The wrong size was sent?! Asked If I could just swap the wrong size that was sent by Zara with the correct size that is in store. I was told to do this, I would have to purchase the item in store and then CANCEL or SEND BACK my order and apply for a refund. Why?! I decided not to purchase either and cancelled the order anyway. Complete amateur and complicated experience. F*Ck you Zara.”

“I sent two lots of orders back in one box and they have only refunded me for one order - They are not refunding me for £78 worth of clothing because I put them in the same return box as the other order. This is THEFT, you cannot keep my money and the clothing!!”

“Went to collect an order, which wasn't in store when I arrived. Had to wait 4 days for zara to confirm it wasn't delivered to store to eventually get a refund. Waste of time and poor customer service. Avoid.”

“Honestly had the worst experience at Zara. They sent me a dress without a belt and I was told to send Back but they were really low in stock so I decided to pay the postage and order the size small as there was only one in stock. When I received it (with the belt) it was an XL (couldn’t be more opposite...) so when I rang customer service they said I can’t keep the belt with the small and I have to send the XL back with the belt?! It’s only a fabric belt so I’m shocked that they can’t amend this in their systems to make everyone’s life a bit easier?! Also 2/4 of the representatives I’ve spoken to have been very rude/not bothered when talking to me which has really made my experience a dire one... I have put in a complaint and was emailed today to ring them, where I had to re-explain the situation to be told I need to send back the XL with the belt despite not having been contacted about my complaint to hopefully rectify this. It has been their mistake twice and I can’t believe that this can’t be resolved.”

“Zara refuses to refund or credit a piece of garment that is defected due to poor design. The gemstones around the sleeves kept catching the fabric against the torso. Their customer service said there were no other customers complained about it so they would not honor it. What happened to dissatisfied customer number one??? Will never purchase from them again.”

“The worst customer service EVER! I bought clothing at the Bromley, London store around mid July 2020. During the next 30 days I tried 3 times to return the items for a refund to store, but each time I went there, the queues were so long (due to Covid) that I didn't have enough time and had to abandon it and return to work, as a key worker. When I eventually got to a till, I was told that I was 2 days over the 30 days refund limit. I asked to speak to the manager who happened to be standing next to my sales assistant, to explain that these were not normal times and to give people a bit more leeway. With a bored and non-caring attitude, she glanced at my receipt and said no. After that she ignored me and wouldn't even look at me. Rude. I was then told that I could only have an exchange. Fine I thought, I'll come back, which I did more recently. I chose some new clothes, went to the till, to then be told that no exchange was available to me. Fuming. I left the store and immediately called Zara's customer services. I spoke to a nice lady, explained my situation, she apologised on behalf of Zara, gave me a case number and told me to give that to them in store and they would issue me with a refund. Today I went in, gave my case number. The manager rang customer services and I was told that no refund would be issued to me. Unbelieveable. That's twice I'd been midled now. I was then asked to speak to customer services myself. Lots of apologising but basically there was nothing they could do. Really??? I find that hard to believe. More like they don't care about their customers. I've now lost £45, which I really cannot afford to loose, unlike Zara who make millions a year. Thanks for nothing Zara. Definitely not ethical in any way.”

“Quality customer service is paramount to any shopping experience! I took my son to the Zara Lenox Square store in Atlanta, GA. I was sitting patiently and quietly on an used display base. A young woman walked by and told me this not a seat and get up. I did not have a problem adhering to her request or store policy. But her tone and delivery was extremely rude! I initially responded with a calm Ok, and then shared with her that she rude. Her response was get up. I asked to speak with a store manager. She responded that she was the store manager. I responded that I did not have a problem getting up from the display base but she did not have to be so unprofessional. I asked for her name. She refused and then walked out. I stated to her that I would contact the corporate customer service to report the incident. When I called Zara' customer service department. The corporate representative was very attentive and professional. She asked me to explain the incident and what occurred in the store. Throughout the incident, I never raised my voice nor use threatening words or actions. But this store manager call the mall security officer to have me removed from the store. I acknowledged his request and left the store. I did not want my son's shopping experience to be ruden because of this incident. He spent over $600 dollars but this will be the last time my family will shop at Zara!”

“Not a fan of this store at all. Clothing is sub par, poorly made, customer service leaves much to be desired (lines are long, stores are messy) and, most noteworthy, Zara’s return policy is THE worst in the industry. There are much better options out there for both online and in store shopping.”

“I placed an order two weeks ago and it was supposed to have been delivered on Aug. 18. Today is Aug. 28. The online tracking link I was given by Zara indicates the package did not arrive to Laser Ship. Nonetheless, I contacted Laser Ship who confirmed that they do not have my items and to contact Zara directly. The first few times I contacted them, I was told to wait 48 hours for a resolution. 48 hours has come and gone a few times since the 18th. Now they just tell me to wait. I didn't have to wait very long for them to charge me. I am very frustrated. This was the first time I purchased from Zara online. I will not purchase from them again and hope that I don't have to enlist Consumer Affairs to get my refund on my undelivered items.”

“Zara robbed me $123 As a big corporate company, Zara doesn't have an ethical policy towards the customers. I recently ordered a birthday present worth of $123. I did not receive the order, and they refused to give me a replacement or a refund. Zara confidently claimed that they double-checked the process of delivery and said there was no error in the shipment. If there isn't any error, where is my package? How can you be sure of there were no errors? Did you deliver it by yourself? Where is your objectivity? I spoke with one of the customer service people, I believed his name is Santiago. He said the package was left behind the gate. So behind the gate of the apartment is free to grab. Unless you left the package in my mailbox or in front of my door (not gate), then I'll be able to retrieve my package. I've shopped with Zara for many years now. Unfortunately, I'm not a philanthropist, I can't do charity to an unethical company like this. Let alone, they blatantly robbed me $123”

“I ordered a pair from jeans from here and paid $5 for shipping, promised that I would receive my item in 2-4 business days. Usually I do not have a problem, but this time I was appalled at the terrible delivery and the rude feedback I received from customer service. The item I bought began shipping two days later, and said it would come by the end of that week through FedEx. However, on the Zara email I received it said I would receive the item in two days. It said it would come by Friday of that week at the end of the day and that it was out for delivery, but it never came. Then, the delivery tracking told me it was at the FedEx location on Saturday, and I would receive it by Monday night. When Monday came, it said it would come Tuesday. By Tuesday, it no longer gave me any information about the delivery and said the delivery date was "pending." After hours on the phone with FedEx, which was an absolute waste of time and shouldn't even be a customer's responsibility, I was told that they would file a case for me and put it under a number a certain number and that they would give me a call back. I spent the whole week waiting for a call, which never happened. I called again at the end of the week and was told that they could not provide me with updates on the case and I would have to call Zara. When I called them, I received horrible treatment and the customer service agent was not helpful in the slightest. She repeated the same information to me from the tracking website and told me to just wait around for the package, which is so stupid since I have access to the screen and can see that myself. Then, she said I can file a case but I have to wait two more days for updates, which is ridiculous considering I have been waiting 18 days for my items when I should've only waited for two days, which is the time she gave me for the case. I know that they would never call me back just like with FedEx and requested to speak to a manger, which she responded to by telling me that I would have to make an APPOINTMENT. In the end, she did not help in the situation at all and was completely useless. I requested that my package would be replaced and she just kept making excuses for why that couldn't happen; she was just repeating the only phrase she knew. Terrible customer service and horrible management, especially compared to other shops. I had the same issue at DSW, and as soon as I contacted them they resent my item and it will deliver by the end of the day. I was expecting the same from Zara but I was disappointed. If you're going to get something from there don't waste money on shipping. Also make sure to request something other than FedEx if possible, it takes forever and is horrible at updating the tracking information accurately. You will never actually be able to know what's happening to your purchase.”
