Most of my wardrobe is Venus clothing. So I was surprised to see so many bad reviews. Bevause all of the clothing I have received was very trendy and of good quality. When I did have to make a return for an item that didn't fit right, I had no problems with returns either, as Venus refunded my money without any problems. I tend to think that more people report problem issues, because they are upset, and not many take the time to report when they've had good service.

This is a scam
December 9, 2021

This is a scam. Venus said that my order was delivered by ups, but I never received my items. I will never order anything from this website. I tracked my package and ups said it was already delivered. Venus said its in on the way. This is a joke… Amazon is the best

I ordered on line two items, I decided to keep one and return one, I didn't care for the material of the item. I used the return label that came with the items. Once it had been a month I emailed and asked had they(Venus) received it, because I wanted a full refund, well I was told that they didn't have and had no way to track and their labels are not customer order specific, it's my fault I didn't get a receipt for the return from UPS or USPS ( they use both) I thought it would be safe to use their labels guess not, I won't buy from them again.

Returns
November 30, 2021

After sending back 3 items I received a email that a credit had been processed. I called the company to get the credit returned to my credit card. After spending over 30-40 minutes with customer service and with a promise that the money would be returned to my card and sending multiple emails I did not get my return processed. After many attempts when I tried to get credit in the wallet to use up the $95.64 it states it is expired. After I paid in full they continue to process fees. Then charge late fees when you don't even know you owe. I will never shop Venus again. Poor customer service, poor emails, poor returns, poor phone service of not telling the truth and putting you on hold. To bad as I liked the clothing but not the service. I will continue to spread the word of the poor overall business that Venus offers.

EVERYTHING OUT OF STOCK
November 15, 2021

I have ordered several things from Venus and very satisfied. I get sent links via email from them showing me items I might be interested in only when I click on the items... there is an X over my size! It seems every item I want to purchase is sold out. Very aggravating. How do you run a business if your most popular items and sizes are always sold out? I'm going to look for a womens clothing store that actually has stock to purchase from.

Hi Lisa! Thank you for your review and we apologize for your frustrations. We do our absolute best to re-stock items as soon as we can. Although uncommon, we do experience vendor or shipping delays for new shipments. Also, once we receive the merchandise it has to pass quality inspection before it can be shipped out to customers. We hope this information is helpful. If we may be of any assistance, please send us a message to [email protected].

I love Venus
October 13, 2021

This is my favourite online store at the moment. I've ordered many times this year and I love all my new clothes.
I live in Canada and I always read the reviews regarding sizes so I don't have to return any clothing.

I just received my latest order today and I love my boots and sweater coat.

Poor Quality/ Bad scam
October 4, 2021

I ordered from Venus twice. 1st time early 2017, 2nd time November 2017 before a cruise. I ordered about 8 items the 2nd time. The quality was TERRIBLE both times. I returned all things except 1 piece in 2nd order. I was upset because I was going to have to go and reshop for decent items at the last minute. I returned of December 2017. January, february, March 2018 go by with NO credit made. I pay on the credit card account through them (Comenity) for items I DON'T HAVE because I have an excellent credit history with my cards. A year later I stop paying, account has NOT Been rectified. I had 2 items totalling about $65 (which was MORE THAN Paid), but had a bill of almost $400. Stopped paying after complaints, they refer to collection company that try to double amount for items NOT in my possession. IT's Extortion! All because they do not refund/credit as they are supposed to, they try to lose you in the shuffle and use Excuses! Never again. Filing claims. - P H

Hi Pam! We are sorry to hear that this was your experience. Returns generally should take no more than 14 business days to be received and processed. After that timeframe, it is best to reach out to us for further assistance. However, this issue that you are currently having with Comenity Bank would have to be resolved with them. We are still happy to assist you in any way that we can to make this process easier. Please send us an e-mail at [email protected] for more assistance.

Jean zippers suck. I love everything else about Venus, but their jean zippers. Very cheap. I have one pair of jeans that I absolutley love, but the zipper is stuck in the down position & I cannot get it to budge. For having such well made clothes I wish they would install better zippers.

Hi C. P! We do understand your frustrations. However, the $6.95 pre-paid return label fee covers the return service for the items you return. You may also return items through the courier of your choice and pay their return service fee directly to them. If you have any other questions or concerns, please send us an e-mail at [email protected]. We are always happy to help.

Disappointed
September 26, 2021

Ordered the Rush Mesh Bodycon dress. Received it September 4 tried it on excited loved it Im a size 6 I ordered a medium fit perfectly. The event is September 24 I go to put the dress on my husband goes to zip it and the zipper breaks! Do you know when you look so forward to an outfit and you have all your jewelry picked out you know what you're gonna wear and the zipper breaks! I can't tell you… I know it's just a dress but it was a wedding I was going to and I was scrambling looking for another dress to wear to this wedding. I am very disappointed and hope Venus does the right thing and refunds my money..

I purchased 3 items from Venus, which took a long time to ship. 2 pairs of jeans and a skort, all of which were too big. I followed their size chart and had the impression that some things would be too small so I am confused as to what is going on with that.

I was going to return to Venus, but noticed I didn't have a shipping label. I contacted them and was told that customers in Canada are responsible for their own returns. I Check out the cost and oh man, we are not doing that.

Decided to resell online, hope that works. Venus' return policy isn't very good, why the hate towards Canada? I spent the money same as your American customers, I'd like to be treated fairly. I would have been happy to exchange, but being told that lets me know that shopping with Venus will always be a hassle, returns and exchanges will never be possible. There are plenty of other places for me to shop.

The clothes I got were actually pretty nice, I'm sad that I cannot enjoy them. But for those prices and making exchange and return this difficult, I'll pass on that from now on.

Hi Maggan! We do understand your frustrations and we apologize for any inconvenience. All customers are responsible for returning items to us. However, some customers choose to utilize our pre-paid label to assist in returning items but this label is only valid in America at this time. We are so grateful for all of your feedback and it will be taken into account as we continue growing as a company and implementing new changes.

Gone down hill
August 26, 2021

I used to be a die hard Venus fan. Never had an issue with anything. The service agants were accommodating and helpful. Now they are just horrible. Wait time is over 10 minutes, just to be disconnected again. They never return emails. Just overall disappointing. I'll never order from them ever again. Everything has just gone down hill, fast.

Poor quality
August 23, 2021

I have bought a few things from this company and all of their garments are poorly made and poor quality. Over prized and over Rated. I bought a shirt and the it had a hole and lint balls after the second wash. I also bought a cardigan sweeter for 70 dollars and it was ruined in the first wash. Never again!
