The worst customer service ever. Called and talked to a woman who tried to help but had to transfer me over to a different dept. but found out they don’t work the weekends. She left a message for them to call me on Monday but no call, no call Tuesday, no call all week so I wrote to them five different times and never got an answer. I call the following week and talked to someone who could’nt help me so he transferred me over to the fraud dept who could’nt answer my question either, but said I could reorder the product which by now was too high of a price for me so I told him no and I will never buy from them again. Customer service sucks.
Hello all buyers……I would like to give 0 ( zero) star to the service department and company website providing false information to me. I ordered a 5 piece dinning table on 21st June 2020 because ,it shows stock of 8 in their warehouse. The delivery date was 25th June 2020. I called them on 22nd June and spoke Rachel J , service supervisor ,she also confirmed 25th June 2020 but could not provide me tracking number. Called yesterday ( 24th June) and spoke to another male supervisor , because I did not receive any tracking number on my email. He said the order will not be shipped till 29th June with Delivery date 3 rd July 2020 . (Reason it is on backorder). How come it is on back order when it shows 8 in stock. The website cheats the customer with false and misleading information ,which is an offence under the digital laws and I am waiting for 3rd July 2002 and after that I will consult for an action against the company for cheating , harassing and creating stress to the customer. Also I have written two emails to service department and they have not responded till date.
Buyer Friend’s …..Please think twice before dealing with Wayfair website. I would prefer dealing with Amazon as they are honest and responsive with emails and individual concerns. All the best.
