Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 52 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many customers found the products to be of poor quality, often not matching the online images, with some items arriving damaged or smelling unpleasant. Reviewers frequently reported issues with inaccurate sizing and poor fit, noting that items often did not correspond to standard measurements or advertised sizes. The return process was widely described as difficult and bureaucratic, often involving short return windows, requests for photos, and the requirement for customers to pay expensive international shipping costs. Many people struggled to obtain full refunds, with the company often offering partial refunds, vouchers, or simply refusing to process returns despite proof of postage. Additionally, some customers noted that orders frequently took several weeks to arrive, which was often longer than expected. However, a small portion of people felt satisfied with their purchases, describing some dresses as beautiful or amazing.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!

Wish I could give no stars as their customer service is non-existent! I emailed weeks ago asking to return 2 dresses and they just won’t get back to me. I have sent many emails since and tried talking to them on their live chat which is an absolute waste of time as it says someone will get back to you but never does! I would just like to know where to return my items to but they will not reply!!
Avoid using at all cost unless you want to waste your money!

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE

Ordered a dress for my works do. I was told it would take a week which would have been plenty of time to find something else but took 4 weeks! This was after my works do so I sent it back. I never got my money back for the dress or nearly £20 postage. £70 down the drain. DO NOT OTDER FROM THESE.

Ordered a dress arrived two sizes…

Ordered a dress arrived two sizes smaller than what I ordered. Contacted seller they do not acknowledge their garment is defective, insists the the buyer pays postage to return item back to China cost £40.00+ on a £100 dress. Bought via PayPal reported to them. Buyer beware it is not worth the hazel dealing with this company. Quality of goods we good it is a shame the company do not except their responsibilities with faulty goods.

AVOID! DO NOT USE!

Quite possibly the worst customer experience I have ever experienced.
Massive delays in delivery
When we finally got the two dresses we decided we wanted to return one.
I have not gotten a response to my email asking how to return because apparently you need their approval to return.
Complete joke.

Very Disappointed 🙁

The suit I ordered for my partner was too small.

But first of all they use a delivery company that doe not leave a card when they are trying to deliver - they left the parcel with a neighbour who thankfully brought the parcel to us.

Trying to return the item is a nightmare - they do not answer their emails and the live chat does not work. I can't get an address out of them to send a return. The ironic thing is I would buy the next size up, but it is too risky
Update - I managed to get an address by starting a PayPal dispute and got my money back

NEVER EVER USE! TOTAL SCAM

I ordered a dress for my friends wedding, I ordered a UK size 14 and then sent a UK10, even worse the dress was not the same as the one I had ordered. Order: WBQDUK5103. I haven't been able to get a response from the email addresses provided for refund, so I have been completely ignored despite the fact they have not sent what I ordered.
I opened a case with PayPal in order to contact them and confirm that I had not received what I ordered, I sent pictures of the dress and the labels on the dress. they ignored my email and responded confirming that the package had been delivered, this is a joke as they did not deliver what I ordered and paid £90 for. I have now replied again for a return label to send back the item I NEVER ordered for a refund and am again Longley waiting a response. the biggest upset here is that I never ordered what they sent but I am expected to pay for it despite being able to prove its not what I ordered. My next move will be to ask paypal to handle the dispute and as I paid with credit card via paypal I am going to report the fraud to the bank. I would completely avoid this company all together and any like it as it is a scam.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY Update……

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY Update… having finally received some kind of response It now turns out you have to return items to China. This is both costly and not easy. I’ve managed to get something sorted at the cost of £10. Dress was £50. I will risk it see what happens as bought via Klarna.
Zapaka is a rip off company and the fact you have to return it to China I’m guessing most don’t bother so they just keep robbing money. Save yourself the trouble and your hard earned cash it’s not worth the risk!! You have been warned. I will update on how the return goes. (Bought dress end of Dec 23)

*TERRIBLE COMPANY*

*TERRIBLE COMPANY*
Do not use them.

My dress was supposed to be new and I paid a lot and ordered from Zapaka UK. A dress arrived from China stincking so badly that I had to seal it back in the packaging, because my whole living room was stincking.

When I contacted the seller Zapaka to raise a return request as per returns process, they have never responded to me. It's a fraudulent company as they do not honour returns for faulty goods.

AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS!

Absolutely terrible customer service! As the company is called Zapaka UK, I ordered a dress thinking that it would be coming from the UK. After a few weeks the dress arrived but it didn’t fit. There were no instructions on how to return the item so I looked on their website. On the website it stated that if you wanted to return an item you must email them within a week of delivery for instructions on how to return it. I have now emailed them 7 times with no response! I have also tried their live chat but, surprise surprise, nobody was available. I am now stuck with a dress that I do not want! PLEASE DO NOT USE THUS COMPANY!!!!

AVOID AT ALL COST!!!
I ordered 2 dresses on 5th Dec and paid for the expedite delivery of 8 business days. I emailed them for an update when the shipment did not arrive. Apparently the business days start counting from when they ship the order; mine was done on 13th Dec and is still not here, and of no use now as the occassion has passed. My mistake, l failed to read the Reviews before ordering. Save yourself a heartache and shop somewhere else.

I WOULD RECOMEND YOU NEVER ORDER FROM THIS 'COMPANY'. Only given 1 star as cannot give zero. Total con! Didn't receive my order so requested a refund. Zapaka UK refunded less than half what I paid, keeping over £50.

Interesting experience!

It's unfortunate there are bad reviews because my product was actually really good!
First of all its based in China which I didn't realise until my three piece suit came all folded up in a small package, second of all, the large jacket was a bit too small and the large trousers were so long my mum had to adjust them by four inches!
I think it's one of them Chinese based company's that are hit and miss!
I actually love my suit but I wouldn't buy from them again.

I was scared to order from this company…

I was scared to order from this company because of some of the reviews saying it was a scam. However I am sooo pleased to say I received my dress after 10 days of purchase & it is STUNNING, a perfect fit & lovely quality material. I have a photo to submit to show the genuine product. I will definitely order from this company again. Many thanks Zapaka kind regards from Mrs L. Tarff .

Do not use this company

I ordered 2 dresses from here and paid extra for expedited shipping. I contacted them by email to cancel the order as it would not arrive on time and would be outside the promised 8 business days. They replied and said if I cancelled I wouldn’t get anything refunded except shipping and then they sent the items anyway.
The parcel arrived almost a week after it should have and they expect me to pay for it to be returned to China.
AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS
They are dishonest and just looking for a way to take as much money from people as possible.
