Please DO NOT BUY from FRUUGO Website co.uk

Please DO NOT BUY from FRUUGO website

Fruugo is a scam site! I only placed an order thinking they were in the UK as their site is FRUUGO website but found out they are scammers based in China.

Placed an order 6 December 2022 and today 3rd January 2023 and I still haven't got my order. There is no way of contacting them.

PLEASE STAY SAFE DO NOT ORDER from Fruugo website.

Never again. This company should be shut down. They already have my money and I hear nothing back when I complain to customer service. I needed the ordered item for Christmas for a gift for my grandchild and never received it. Stupid company run by amateurs. I will write a bad review about their services or (non services, No delivery) all over the media websites. They stole my money and now I don't know what to do.

It has been ok, I got my money back

It seems my device got lost on the way back to the sender, and it (here I am sure) is my problem, as I can get a refund only when the item comes back to sender. As I paid for the item, nobody cares that
Is (Priority Plus delivery status, by the way) has not made any movements since the 9th of December.

Never arrived
December 20, 2022

I purchased a product. It seemed it was in a warehouse in NZ, where a live. I received a tracking number but couldn't track it. It looked like it had to come from China.
I found an email address so I wrote to them, then it came up that it wasn't a real email address. No phone number either. So a scam. The product did not arrive.
My recommendation, do not deal with fruugo

Do NOT order from this company. It's the first time I ordered and I will NEVER do it again. The coat was advertised as FLEECE. I have towels that are thicker than the cheap, thin terry cloth they sent. It was supposed to be a small - for a mini dachshund. It's big enough for a Cocker Spaniel. About 10 times the size I needed. It's crap. Plain and simple. Gave it away.

SCAM - EGYPTIAN MAGIC
November 28, 2022

SCAM ALERT

I bought Egyptian Magic cream from Shen Zhen Shi Ling Zhi Dian Zi Shang Wu You Xian Gong Si on Fruugo.

It is clearly a fake product as I have used Egyptian Magic before. The brand name is different, packaging is different and ingredients are different. The seller now refuses to give me a refund saying they are the same. I tried the product and it stinks and irritates my skin.

I have a picture if Fruugo would care to contact me back and see a product by product comparison of how different they are.

Creating an account
November 23, 2022

This company is very difficult to make a complaint. If you go into contact us page you have to create an account before you can go any further. I bought a jumper but didn't realize it was sent from CHINA so returning it is near impossible and hugely expensive. They do not state that they originate in CHINA and am very disappointed as I try to not buy items from China. The jumper I bought was very bad quality it pulls the thread really easily. I am stuck with it but hopefully will be more careful when buying again. Lesson learned. Would have given it nil stars if that was possible

WORLD CLASS SCAMMERS
November 22, 2022

I placed an order with Fruugo on the 13th September 2022 to be delivered in South Africa. Paid in full and upfront, as of the 22nd November 2022 I have still not received my package or any form of communication from Fruugo. This site needs to be removed from all Social networks as they steal the customers money.

Bait and Switch
November 22, 2022

I ordered and paid for felt place mats. I received felt coasters. I was offered only a refund of 1/2 the cost of the place mats, and I gather I can keep the coasters - which I don't want. Apparently the place mats aren't even available. This is fraudulent and dishonest business practice. If Fruugo doesn't have the product ordered, don't send anything, and refund the full amount of the purchase price.
