Big W Online

Hi,
I purchased 2 games through Click and Collect back on the 28th November. The estimated delivery on the items was 12 December. Nothing turned up so I called back and they said it had to be over a certain amount of time before they could do anything and just to wait. I called back again about 2 weeks ago and they said I could just walk in to the store and grab them and show the Click and Collect email. They didn't have those games on the shelf in store so I called again. Now they have deemed the items lost in transit and since they don't stock them online anymore they said they need to give me a refund.

I have a problem with this because they have had my money for over a month and I have received nothing for it, and I could have bought those games in store at the time for the same price ($68). Now if they give me a refund I will have to pay $78 per game minimum for them. I've told them I am not happy with just a refund and I want to speak to someone higher up. I'm now waiting for the call, any suggestions on what to say?

    Save your breath mate. Big W online are terrible.

    Did the same to me with a children's slide.

    They only goodwill gesture they would do was reinstate the $5 off coupon I had used, which was now expired. Not give me a $5 credit, just cancel the coupon as being used - so I could use it again. When pointed out to them it was now expired, they said there was nothing they could do about that.

    My advice would be to not buy online from a buisness that does not rely on online purchases. Most are terrible, because they really couldn't care less.

    Really, move on and vote with your feet (on fingers I guess).

  • Good luck getting a response - their click and collect system is hopeless, and their call centre people seem poorly trained and unable to help in any useful way. My last purchase ended in a credit card dispute for failing to provide items they charged for.

  • Ok, thanks for the advice guys. I'm still waiting for the call so I guess I'll see how it goes tomorrow haha.

  • I work out the back to split the load and the click and collect items comes on the same pallets as do the other items that are required for filling.

    It's my responsibility to get these click and collect boxes and hand them to lay by so they can check it off and then call the buyer.

    So the your "lost" item could be that the load breakers put your parcel with the pile that were to be filled at night.

    Sorry if this info didn't help at all.
