Been told I need to provide official copy of ID to get a refund of product they never delivered.

I ordered some bioderma products on 30 November (order number 200164393) and waited and waited for the product to arrive. On 22 December I was told it was shipped by DPD by error despite website confirmation email says it was by Mondial replay home. On the 27 Dec they messaged me saying if I want a refund or replacement I NEED to provide a written form saying I did not receive the product dated and signed!!! AND a copy of my official ID!!! WHAT THE F!!! Am I criminal?!!! This is unreal and I have never encountered such appalling customer service anywhere. I am so outraged about this company. I would recommend you not to be using this company.

Frauds #serestocollars

Ordered 2 seresto collars from this site. Advertised as seresto with a different language on the tin which wasn't a problem. Should of known better them being £25 instead of the usual price. Absolute waste of money. Totally didn't work and they obviously got fleas since they weren't protected. Have tried reviewing the product. They are absolutely crap. I can't find them on their site now. Absolute frauds...sending out imitation items that caused my pets discomfort. Shame on you!!!

Dear customer,

All of our products are bought directly from the laboratories in charge of the brands, their authenticity is 100%. Therefore, if you have an issue with an item, we invite you to contact the original manufacturer to understand the issue encountered.

Furthermore, the language written on the packaging is French, as we are a french company.

Kind regards,
Sanareva

Very satisfied

After reading all the bad reviews I was a bit concerned that my order was going to take ages and maybe not arrive at all. However the service was very good. The order took less than a week (from placing the order to home delivery by Royal Mail) with no issues of any kind - and during a super busy period! I would defo buy from this guys again. Thanks!

UPDATE: The delivery was incomplete, and Customer Service was not great - make sure you do a full video unboxing of your parcel, just in case!

UPDATED: Eventually I got a refund for the product that was not sent, but I had to push for it.

Oh dear. Well, reading the reviews, I got off luckily, since most of the order was correct. For me, one item was missing, so I did what any customer would do, I took a photo of the contents of the parcel and contacted customer services.

Well. Apparently, they want a handwritten and signed letter from me, and a copy of some photo ID. When challenged, I was told I can blank out the personal details.

What's the problem you might think?

And yes, seemingly it is in the T&C's ... although it says you 'might' be asked for that, and you 'might' be asked for a photo (I already provided this without being asked).

I have never ever been asked for a handwritten and signed letter 'confirming' a missing item before, never mind a copy of photo ID.

We are talking a very small value item. This is NOT how you treat customers.

However, reading the reviews, it seems that this is exactly how Sanareva treats some of its customers, including me.

They've since told me that there are a lot of 'dishonest' people out there, and that they weigh and check all parcels, and that they have a lot of cases with fraud.

This may be true, but it is still no way to treat customers. I have never encountered another Retailer that behaves in this way.

Be warned.

You may be fine, but my experienced, and that from reading other reviews suggests that that may not be the case. You may be fine with them, you may not, you decide.

Steer well clear is my advice, steer well clear.

I ordered some soaps and body wash in October. I did not get the order . After writng many mails I got a reply that courier did not flash out the order And then I was told that either I can get a refund or replacement order. I preferred replacement order. It was on 01.12.2021.My father and my grandfather have been giving these soaps with Christmas presents to their friends for the last 20 years . My grandfather died last Friday. He waited and waited for soaps.
They even don't reply . Don't have even customer service number.

Ordered 5 dog collars

Ordered 5 dog collars, but we were sent 2 dog and 3 cat ones! Instead of quickly rectifying the problem, Sanareva wanted to ‘launch an inquiry’ into why it had happened. We had to send multiple photos, eventually received a returns label and sent back all five collars, as requested. Still awaiting our full refund as Parcel Force appear to have mislaid the returned parcel. Sanareva informed to contact Parcel Force and yet again, process has come to a halt. Customer services telephone number given to us just comes up as ‘ incorrect number’. Still owed over £126.00 and initially purchased in October. Never offered replacement flea collars ( so had to buy quickly from elsewhere). Shoddy service throughout and would not recommend to anyone. If Sanareva wish to finally bring this to a satisfactory conclusion, the order reference is 200285658

Dear Customer,

We are sorry to hear that your experience shopping with Sanareva didn't reach your satisfaction.

After verification, the courier reported the return parcel "lost" on 17/12. We therefore proceeded to a refund on 20/12.

We were unable to send you a replacement order as the collars have been withdrawn from sale on our website.

We apologize for the delay and inconvenience,

Wishing you happy Christmas holidays!

I ordered 6 bottles of silicon…

I ordered 6 bottles of silicon organique of 500 ml each.i received only only 2 bottles.
4 whole bottle is missing , how can you make that kind of mistake????
I searched sanareva contact details so I could speak to them directly,they don't have a customer phone number.dodgy.
I filled the form to try explaining I received only 2 bottles...after I filled the form and tried sending it ,it keeps saying :
UNABLE TO SUBMIT YOUR REQUEST.
I tried sending so many times ,I gave up.
So no phone number to call and the online form is NOT working or sending complain or queries.Its a big RED FLAG.
At the back of the bottle it says: pack promo de 3 pièces,ne peut être vendu séparément.Mais j'ai reçu 2 bouteilles.
Y a un malaise.
Order reference: 200305779

It's all sorted now

Dear Ali,

Thank you for getting in touch with us. If the online form was not working, that could have been an internet problem or connection problem.

It seems that there was an error in our stocks, the product was sent to you in units instead of packs of three.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused. We have contacted you by email this morning in order to resolve the issue.

We are looking forward to hearing back from you.

Do not recommend - Go Christmas shopping elsewhere

Hi all,

I normally do not write reviews about companies. The last time I wrote a bad review was 5+ years ago. I consider myself quite patient and reasonable with customer service agents.

However this time I’ve been so disappointed with the level of service I’ve received so I’m making an exception and like to share the terrible experience I’ve had with Sanareva.

As many of you, I order beauty products in advance of a chemical peel or beauty treatment. I ordered approx 85 pounds worth of products from Sanareva. The estimated delivery time was 2-4 days and there was a payment deducted for the delivery costs. Unfortunately I’ve waited approx. 10 days for my order to arrive. I understand that sometimes an order can be delayed, but I think it is misleading information when the delivery time takes 2x as long as the estimated delivery time. The delivery is not for free by the way, which makes it even less customer friendly. I also did not receive any update about the fact that my order would be late. A bit unfortunate, but still not a big deal and I was really understanding towards the customer service.

What happened afterwards has been a really disgusting quality of service. I had to return the products (because they arrived too late for my chemical peel) and this is when the real misery started. I let the customer service know I would like to return the package and they send me their address so I could return the package. I’ve paid for a track/trace/signed for package of £15 because I wanted to be absolutely sure my package would arrive. I received a notification from Royal Mail that my package had arrived at Sanareva and that it was signed for 3 days after I had posted it.

After 10 days of patiently waiting for Sanareva, being very understanding that they were busy during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, I decided to ask whether they had processed my refund. The customer service agents suddenly did not reply anymore and told me the package hadn’t arrived (it was tracked/traced/signed for so this isn’t true!). They came across to me as a bit arrogant and not customer friendly at all. Unfortunately they expect that you won’t take any action for a parcel of less than a £100 and this is true in most cases. That’s how they try to get away with it.

I have never been treated like this before by a company. I would have expected that they would have been more gracious and understanding and unfortunately they deserve this negative review.

Hope you will have a better Christmas shopping experience at another shop !

Terrible delivery and customer service

**UPDATE:

in response to the below reply... Your company said they could offer next day delivery and charged me for such. As for everything else, your website is not clear on what you've said. I think the terrible reviews on here speak for themselves.**

I've written a review on their website as requested by them. Telling them of my exact experience. Firstly they responded to it by telling lies, then they deleted my review saying I was contradicting. I wrote about how I had two bad experiences regarding time taken to receive orders. One time paying £5 for next day delivery which never happened. It was medication I needed for my daughter desperately. They have very competitive prices which is probably why most people use them but I'd rather pay a little more for a better customer service experience. Shan't ever use again.

Dear Faye,

As we explained in our emails and underneith your previous review on Verified Reviews, we do not offer next day delivery. It's mentioned nowhere on our website.

Due to Brexit, we have had to change our courier fees as our warehouse is based in France.

Our courier, Spring GDS, is the French partner of Royal Mail in the UK which we are currently offering at £7.90 and for which you are allowed free delivery for orders above £79. This service does not require any extra custom fees. If you are contacted for customs, we will require you send us the proof of contact and the proof of paiement which we will refund back to you in full.

Thank you for your undertsanding,

Great value, delighted with my order

Really delighted with my order of Le Petit Marseillaise products. For the past few years we spent a lot of time in France, and now we are not able to I have really missed my favourite products. They are extremely good value on this website, far less than Amazon prices. Sanareva dispatched my parcel the next day from France via courier, and it arrived a week later (had to go through customs etc at Amsterdam). I got free post and packing as I ordered extra Le Petit Marseillaise products as extra Christmas presents for my grown-up daughters. One very happy family. Merci beaucoup et joyeux Noël!

DON'T TOUCH WITH A BARGE POLE!!

Notified of ordered items being despatched on 26 October 2021. Royal Mail tracking status "sender despatching item". This status did not change, so sent email after nearly two weeks, told to wait as there had been a bank holiday (in France). Emailed twice further, no resolution so contacted the card payment company, which holds companies emails - service.international @omniphar.com. No response. Telephoned - no contact made. Raised a claim against Sanareva, which has been found in my favour. I have had several emails from "Verified Reviews" highlighted on the Sanareva website - I was placed in "mediation". Both reviews were rejected by Sanareva, the final review stating getting a full refund - no response from "Verified Reviews" are they equally a scam??

So, having posted this review, Sanareva contacted through "Verified Reviews" and "TrustPilot" apparently the goods "were damaged in transit and undeliverable" hence a full refund. Seems from other TrustPilot reviews that "transit" and "delivery company" are Sanareva's fall guys, As to the reply above: the Sanareva Team did not send me an email to inform me that the order was not being delivered and that I was getting a full refund. It was the Credit Card company that advised me 7 days previous to this review that a refund was being made. I will not enter into any further communications with this company. I reiterate - DO NOT TOUCH THEM WITH A BARGE POLE!

You have visibly never contacted our customer service. Could you please provide more information that may justify your poor review?

You haven't yet received your parcel. For your information it was dispatched on November 23rd and is on it's way for delivery. Unfortunately the delivery has been delayed for the following reason displayed on the Royal Mail website if you enter your tracking number : "Sorry, your item went to Rochester DO in error, so we re-routed it immediately. More information will be available as it travels through our network."

Not a good experience

My order was processed and delivered in a reasonable time scale, but the items were incorrect. When I notified the company I was asked to supply photos. I replied I couldn't do that but if they would supply the returns label I had requested they would see for themselves when they received back the incorrect items. Since then I have received no communication. There is no way to contact apparently apart from the message board on the website, and still have not replied to further messages, even though my granddaughter took phots of the incorrect items I received and those photos are now also on the message board. I hope, since they seem to respond to negative reviews, they will actually read this and get their act into gear. SANAREVA - PLEASE READ MY MESSAGES AND REFUND MY PURCHASES. Thank you in advance.

Thank you Sanareva, I am pleased to have now received a refund for the incorrect items.
