David Jones Doncaster Seed
David Jones Doncaster Seed
Disappointed in the service at DJ Doncaster Seed.
Last thursday 20th July I visited the store and needed assistance. Waited an hour for a seed staff member and when she does come , she spends another 20 mins talking and laughing with other staff. Disgusting. I’m done with DJ Doncaster Seed
Assunta
Lack of support from David Jones
We ordered two items from David Jones, a blender and a sandwich press. Nothing too difficult. We paid using vouchers from our wedding gifts, ordered online and excitedly awaited our goods. On the Monday one of the items turned up, the blender for reference sake, but nothing else. After querying both Australia Post and David Jones, we had an immediate response from Australia Post advising that they had delivered one of one item.
By Wednesday David Jones had decided to issue a complaint number, by txt and e-mail no less. Now it's the following Monday and nothing. No follow up, no acknowledgement that they are even looking into the missing item, just crickets.
In a world of increasing online shopping ,and ever increasing online options, it's hard to see how DJ's will be able to complete, if they can't resolve such an obvious error at their end.
As noted, this was using their gift cards, making this even more frustrating that our friends trusted them to deliver a service, and we've had nothing ...
Very frustrating and a sad demise of a previously highly regarded organisation.
Maybe we'll hear something, who knows, trying to contact DJ's seems a futile effort at best :(
very helpful service from Josh today in…
very helpful service from Josh today in the 'Calibre' section of David Jones, Brisbane city. It wasnt just the great suit that prompted us to buy, but also Josh's great service.
What has happened to David Jones???
For over 1 week now I have been trying to get in contact with either the Parramatta or Burwood Stores to speak with a Wedgwood consultant. Absolutely disgraceful. Nobody answers the phone not even when it is transferred back to customer care. I have been left on hold for more than 1 hour at times. Today, right now I am up to nearly 59mins. What happened to customer service? Also, the "Chat function" that you are directed to whilst on hold, does not work. Very disappointed, I ask myself why don't we shop at DJ's much anymore? and I have answered my own question, Customer service has disappeared. Not only on the phone but in store, your staff have no idea on the products they sell, and direct you back to the website or phone. When you get given the run around like this, no wonder stores fail to thrive in these economic times. So disappointed DJ's. Generations of shoppers in our family have dwindled with their support for you with your lack of service.
Weird and Unhelpful
I went to David Jones to see if I can get a good purse. I saw an Oroton purse behind the glass cupboard and asked a staff nearby if I could have a look at it. She told me she only worked for Mimco and continue to arrange her things. Oroton was next to Mimco but no one was around to ask. I thought this weird that staff can't serve you because they are in charge of one particular section. Aren't they David Jones staff? I left and took my business to Myers.
I visited David Jones at Macquarie…it
I visited David Jones at Macquarie shopping centre looking for Mother’s Day gift. I was greeted by Kassy who was very cheerful and asked if she can help me with anything. I said to Kassy I was looking for Mother’s Day gift and not sure what to buy? Kassy said (No problems I can definitely help you with that) within a few minutes Kassy found me a beautiful scarf in the accessories area which I was happy with. Then Kassy asked if I needed something else, so I said nice perfume for myself, so Kassy took me to the perfume area and suggested Channel Blue! That was an absolute excellent choice, so I purchased both the scarf and Channel Blue. My shopping experience was outstanding because what Kassy did from start to finish was just perfect. This was truly great customer experience by Kassy, David Jones should be proud to have someone like Kassy looking after their customers. I would give Kassy 5 stars ⭐️ Thank you again Kassy
David Jones are definitely living in…
David Jones are definitely living in the dark ages with online orders. I live in a two Tower complex highrises. I’m Tower one I accidentally typed tower two. I contacted them and there is no way they can update the shipping and they won’t cancel the order, you speak to the Philippines!! I have spent half my day talking to robots via David Jones and Australia Post worst experience ever will never purchased from David Jones online ever again!!!
communication impossible
viewed a leather jacket on their on line store, then tried to ring a nearby store to see if it was in stock. The virtual assistance transfered me to the electrical department, who were apparently unable to transfer me to the clothes department. will take my business elswhere.
Bought a Marc jacobs bag online
Bought a Marc jacobs bag online, they sent the wrong one, numerous phone calls and emails later, post returned the bag to them,
They automatically returned my money, which was good but I wanted the bag, waited 40 mins on hold to ask for the bag, bag is no longer in stock, so because of someone’s incompetence I can’t have the bag. But on the plus side, I have seen the delivery of a $1000 bag, stuffed in a box with paper thrown in, no dust bag or protection around the bag, I won’t be buying an expensive bag from them again,Bad experience and won’t be back anytime soon😘
A STORE I NO LONGER LIKE
They even have trouble sending me my David Jones Amex membership rewards, excuses after excuses, beginning of the year till now, i got ZERO. And they won't let me collect the redemption cards at their store or have a system where u can offset purchases.
This is NOT the David Jones from before. They have ZERO sincerity and service. I won't buy anything from them again anymore...It's less headaches buying from overseas department stores, most of them give free overseas shipping anyway.
Click N Collect poor service
I’ve ordered click n collect and have been waiting in store for 2 hours to collect my product. They said to come back in 40 minutes and it’ll be ready. I come back over an hour later and it is still not ready. They are making me wait for them. Don’t use this service. They didn’t even let me refund the click n collect and simply just buy it off the shelf when I can see the product. Truly appalling! Wasting my time.

Not happy for service at Miranda
DONT BOTHER WITH THE SALES
DONT BOTHER WITH THE SALES, IT IS RUBBISH. Bought a Dolce & Gabbana top online. The original price was $2,300 discounted to $686 two days ago. Didn't bother getting anything else. Received email today that it wasn't in stock. What rubbish. How can they sell online, you pay for it, then be told it is not in stock. So now I don't have the top I am after and all the good designer wear is sold out. Rang customer service and waited an hour before hanging up. Rang again for a call back and was offered a $100 voucher, ARE YOU KIDDING? David Jones didn't have the decency to refund my money yet. Never again. What a waste of time and a huge disappointment. Not surprised they got sold so cheap.
Only store in QLD to range a certain…
Only store in QLD to range a certain 'expensive' shirt from England. Waited almost half an hour on Sunday 13 Nov for the chat bot. The text icon on same page states: Why wait? Text us & a team member will get back to you once available. What They don't tell you is that meant 25 hours later. The following day at 2:15 arrived in Brisbane 2 hours away.
Thought David Jones was in Queens Mall, My Fault.
It was Queens Plaza. Only put one hour on my park. My Fault. Couldn't find Queens Plaza. My Fault.
I left without the shirt. My Fault. Got back in my car and the text came through. Quite happy actually that I didn't find them. Thanks David Jones. Good result.
Avoid David Jones online shopping
Online shopping experience is appalling. They drop ship most of the items then refuse to provide refund if the order is unfulfilled and instead blame the vendor or Australia Post. I am still waiting on my order from 7 weeks ago, and David Jones take 1-2 weeks to respond to emails, they don’t even provide courtesy of including their name. Avoid david Jones online shopping!!
WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE
WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE
It took me 4 hours before being able to talk to someone. They don't respond to phone calls - chat works only sometimes and they just ignore emails.
I can't believe such a big company delivers this kind of (non-existing) service.
