Officeworks Anmeldelser 

Officeworks Epping VIC could do with some extra training in their photocopy section.
I asked the female at the counter to "mirror image" a copy for me. Then I was told "the copy machines (both assisted and self serve) don't do that anymore".
So I went to the self serve copier, and God shone down on me and miracle happened... I got a mirror image copy.
I don't know how people get a job there.

I preordered online a new Ipad Pro M5 last saturday, the website took my money then sent me an email telling me they had cancelled the order and refunded the money and that I should call support if I thought it was cancelled in error. I had too wait until Monday to call support and when I did they told me (which I later found out was a lie) that they had no idea why the order was cancelled. They suggested I should just reorder, but I cant because they still have not refunded the original order. They promised to sort it out and get back to me but of course they didn't. So I am still waiting, cant order from someone else because they havent refunded my money and havent given me any idea when they might get around to it. This is not an islated incident, I had an almost identical experience 3 months ago but I thought maybe they might have got their act together by now.

I made the unfortunate decision to trade in and buy a new iphone through Officeworks. I'll never do this again. When I made the decision to get a new phone, I wanted to get an iPhone 16 Pro but due to their horrible service I'm now getting an iPhone 17. Please note, I am greatful to be able to get a new phone however I should not have had to get a phone I wasn't planning to due to their poor service and uncommunicated delays.

I contacted them to enquire about the process and received the return label on 24 September 2025. On 25 September 2025, I went to the post to send them my phone. They only confirmed on 30 September 2025 that they received the phone. After that, it was radio silence. Not a word form them. So on 02 October 2025, I sent an email asking them when to expect feedback on the trade in assesment and there was no repsonse. the following day (03 October 2025), I decided to call them. After jumping through hoops amd being on hold for what felt like eternities, I finally find out that the assessment was actually complete. The just hadn't sent me my gift cards. They were just sat on my gift cards and not saying a word. So I ask them to send me my gift cards and eventually get them.

Now that I had my giftcards, turns out I can't use them to make an online purchase on the Officeworks website. So on 04 October 2025, I went in store to order my phone. They let me know that the estimated delivery date would be 17 October 2025 and I accepted it. The took my details (phone number and email) and emailed me my receipt. Today (16 October 2025), I decide to open the tracking site because I wanted to get an estimate on what time my phone would be arriving tomorrow (17 October 2025). Turns out, they have moved the estimated delivery date to 30 October 2025 - 06 November 2025.

I want to make it clear that I understand that delays happen and are typically not something that can be controlled. My issue is the lack of communication. I beleive that at whatever moment they (Officeworks) realised they wouldn't make the estimated delivery date, they should've emailed me to let me know. It was wrong for them to remain absolutely silent regatding this.

Another thing, customers should not have to always be the ones initiating conversation. The company should communicate and inform customers of any changes and delays. It is literally the BARE MINIMUM. The service is absolutely atrocious.

ONE of the worst experiences of my LIFE. do not ever make a minor or major purchase this business. After dealing with 5 staff, one of the staff realized after many faults with the TV , one with two dead pixels, we were entitled to a replacement.But they refused , said we have to send it off for repair. even the company said they dont repair dead pixels. they the staff waned us to suffer without a TV, the staff seemed so happy wit glee with this. A service guy named Gus, Told me that any TV under $500 , one must expect the TV remote may not work all the time, that is just how is. and we can if we play around , It will work. then we can watch a movie. we dont watch movies thank you. But we had to fight for our rights, on the phone to head office and recorded part on body cam, 55 minutes of hell. . i will Never ever Buy anything from these companies ever ever again. OFFICE WORKS the staff the worst I have ever experienced in my LIFE. even after the replacement, continued to give directives and advice, I promised them we will never purchase from them EVER again. UPDATE :" Eventually they gave us a replacement , the remote works fine. unlike the staff who said we have to accept it not working because we didn't buy a high end TV,

I'm still waiting 2days for a water cooler to be delivered from Welshpool warehouse. I'm FIFO and was promised this would be delivered Monday - Tuesday, it's now Wednesday.. tracking saying preparing your order hence why I called yesterday Tuesday saying it should be "Out for delivery" not preparing. The status still hasn't changed. I would not of gone through Officeworks if I was going to be let down. I've just received my item Fresco Water Cooler, let it sit as it has a fridge army the bottom. Got home after a few hours, plugged it in, read instructions, attempted to fill and empty a cup per hot/cold taps, and zap, puff and leaking everywhere.. it was smoking, has to unplug it, mop up water and remove. I want a full refund I ordered online.

Made an online order for pencil top rubbers and was prepared to pay the high price for such and postage because impossible to find, then low and behold out shopping at a discount store and they had packs on the shelf. A quick phone call to office works to delete my order which I had made only the night before and the gentleman said it had already been processed, now that's good company service, but he couldn't stop the delivery, so he gave me a refund instead. Still got pencil rubbers. Thanks office works.

J.Burrows Ultra Stick-it Notes 76x76mm Yellow.
I know this is small beer, but I bought these because the 3M number wasn't avaiable.
They are labelled "Ultra Adhesive"...the poor girl writing that must have had too much to drink the night before.
These are crap. You stick them on once, and if you have to reposition it, you're done!
Now I've gotta chuck these out and spend $15 on the 3M stuff.
"Ultra Adhesive"....absolute joke, Officeworks......absolute joke?!

I ordered a device online from Officeworks in the morning and paid EXTRA for same-day afternoon delivery because I urgently needed it. Unfortunately, the delivery never arrived as promised.

I called Officeworks before 5 PM to check the status, hoping to ensure it would still arrive on time. Instead of helping, I was simply told that if the delivery failed, the shipping fee would be refunded — but I would still have to wait until the next day for the item. That defeats the whole purpose of paying for same-day delivery.

The following day, I called again to follow up, only to be told I’d need to call back in the afternoon for updates. This is not only inconvenient but also incredibly frustrating. The reason I opted for same-day delivery was because Officeworks advertised this feature and I badly needed the device that day.
If Officeworks cannot provide what they promise online, then they are failing to meet their own service commitments (SLA) and misleading their customers. Simply refunding the shipping fee does nothing when the actual product is urgently required.

Honestly, this behavior should be audited by the ACCC because it looks like Officeworks is breaching its own terms. Customers shouldn’t be lured in with “same-day delivery” if it isn’t actually reliable.

I’ll think twice before trusting Officeworks’ online delivery again. Extremely disappointing experience.

I am very disappointed with the service I received today.
1 poster not found
2 had to prove that I actually paid for it
3 after leaving for 1hr for them to find it
4 still not found had to show that I actually paid for it again
5 now they see I did order this poster they print it while I wait.
6 no cylinder or envelope to protect it, but given a rubber band,
Not happy with how this was all conducted.
7 then told have a good day. Really??
This was at your Fyshwick store in Canberra

I purchased a modem router from Officeworks about 3.5 years ago. It ceased working. I took it back to Officeworks Joondalup for a refund as one would expect under the Australian Consumer Law, 3.5 years is a shorter than expected life for a modem router.

One particularly officious staff member first sought to deny me on the basis of warranty. It was claimed the Officeworks warranty was 1 year - for a router which cost c. $300.

I pointed out the box had “3 year Warranty” printed on it. The officious staff member was joined by another equally officious (although not as nasty) staff member.

When I raised the Australian Consumer Law, the staff claimed they knew nothing of it. I find it hard to believe a Company like Wesfarmers, which owns Officeworks, is not training its staff on the Australian Consumer Law, if it be the case.

I will be avoiding Officeworks in the future, and suggest you do too.

Shocking customer service from the head office customer care team over the phone. Wasn’t able to pay for my online order for printed documents. Error message kept saying payments with a credit card are unaccepted at the moment. I called customer service to then be told to clear log out clear the cache and try again. Same error. I called back and she told me to try it from a different device so I tried on my mobile while on the phone to her. Error again. She then asked what engines I was using (I tried both chrome and safari) she then wanted me to download edge (not willing to do that) she said there’s no problem on their end. I asked if I could just pay over the phone, apparently you can only process stationary products over the phone but can’t pay for print. Looks like I’ll be going to my local printers instead. Thanks for not helping officeworks!

I wanted to buy a Kindle and was debating between the colorsoft or new Kindle scribe. Office works advertise that they sell both and upon research I found which location stated that both were "in stock". I drove an extra 20 minutes to the location only to find that they dont have them available on display. I was told that display units were not available so even though the products were in stock i was unable to test them.

Shocking trying to get an item scanned, a print and photos and sat for almost 2 hours with equipment not working and staff being cranky because I was asking for help. Will never go back to Officeworks Capalaba

Nowra Officeworks refused to replace a defective product because it's price had increased. Was given a refund and told to buy again at the increased price.

Officeworks is a failure of the free market tbh. The website for this company is a barely functional nightmare. Purchases made via your business account sit under the 'other' label of the breakdown of your next purchase, so the website comes to the conclusion that it owes you money and will thus not let you complete the purchase. Contacting customer service is a waste of your time and effort - they won't help you. Only advice I got from someone who had an audible shrug in their tone was to download an entire separate browser and try there, which, outside of being nothing close to an actual solution, didn't even work!

Horrible experience
Same day printing is a fallacy
Waited 45 minutes at the print counter and left with nothing

I've never been overly impressed by Officeworks but am obliged to use them for ordering at work. For 3 days I have tried to place an order but keep getting logged out, or the website is so slow it lags for ages and by the time it loads there are no items in my cart. I can't even get to the checkout stage. By that time my cart appears empty & because I was logged out involuntarily so many times, my account eventually got blocked.

There is a message on their website that 'some' users are experiencing intermittent problems but to just try again as if it's not a problem on Officeworks end. I have tried to order with different computers with different internet providers with no luck.

The website should be offline until it's fixed. Don't waste people's time telling them to try again when doing so is a complete waste of time.

I've decided to do some blocking of my own. Blocking any further orders to Officeworks and taking our business elsewhere.

Purchased a Lenova Slim line Laptop from Officeworks Lismore in November 2024. On 10th July 2025 computer battery died, wouldn't charge or hold charge. Couldn't back up anything as there was only 5% battery left. Explained to them about this as well, couldn't have cared less. Sent back under warranty for replacement battery, weeks later get computer back damaged which had a big dent in the back of it and absolutely everything had been wiped from computer, all data files and Home Office had been wiped. Took computer to my local computer repairer to try and retrieve data and he could not believe they had wiped absolutely everything off my computer for a battery repair. Had never seen such negligence on their part. I will NEVER purchase another product from Officeworks. Buyer beware of their terms and conditions of warranty as they will wipe all data from your computer. Absolutely no care for you as a customer. At least I had done a partial backup of some of my files a month before and my photos were still on my phone to reinstall.

I just don't understand why shop is selling empty boxes / hard drives with unavailable product in shop including at any other nearest shop and what for is buy and pick up at your local shop option when I need to drive on other side of Melbourne metropolitan area to get that product in far away shop???
GUYS WHERE IS A SERVICE FOR CUSTOMERS???
Why stuff can't pick up a phone??? I called to few shops , zero result !!!
Why you simply pushing me to drive miles away when you should have working buy and pick up option at local store??? why you blocking online purchase ??? you loosing customers !!! If I want to do shopping in local shop I simply go there. I don't need click and collect there but if product in different location - it's you should organise delivery in local shop for pick up!!!
I just in shock you put on shelves empty boxes for product which you can't supply and you don't have .
Half of information on some products is not in english, it is unreadable impossible to understand and plus you are telling me that you can't open a box to check out included items because it's sealed but happy me to buy it first open in front of you and do refund immediately .... isn't it ridiculous????
Do you know what are you doing???
I just so much hope for another shop to come on a market who can take over your bad business and look after customers .... because you can't !!! Absolutely !!!
