GBWhat should have been a simple order I ordered a replacement Chromecast remote on Mar. 15. It never came. I checked the provided tracking number and it shows “Awaiting Carrier Pickup” on Google’s side and the number doesn’t exist on the UPS side. Google refuses to acknowledge that the remote never shipped and refuses to ship another one. They won’t let me speak to a supervisor. They want me to consent to providing ALL of my Google account history to investigate the issue. I told them no. They won’t refund my money. So, I disputed the charge with my credit card company. Really, what the heck Google!?! UPDATE: Apr. 11 Never heard from a supervisor. Google Store still shows "Pending Carrier Pickup" and has failed on all aspects. The quit emailing their canned response when I stated that they should all be fired for being inept at customer service. Credit card refunded money and is waiting on Google Store's response. Even if Google responds, my credit card has assured me that I will win this case.

GBOrdering through the Google Store… Ordering through the Google Store presented some challenges. In preparation to purchase our Pixel 8 phones, my husband and I were informed that the items were in stock and available for in-store pick up upon online payment. To avoid any potential shipping issues, we planned to personally pick up the phones, even though it meant a four-hour drive plus associated costs. When we inquired about the availability of colors at the Brooklyn, NY store, we encountered difficulty due to the lack of a contact number and unhelpful customer service. Ultimately, we decided to ship the phones instead. Despite some delays in the shipping process, my husband's phone eventually shipped but mine continued to be postponed. This led to my decision to cancel the order and make the purchase through Amazon.

GBGoogle Warranty Dodgers Phone screen developed terrible flicker after 18 months. Said 2yr warranty invalid due to hair line width chip, less the 0.5mm long on casing. £700 Google 6 Pro v well looked after now useless. Will never buy anything Google ever again! Tried on line chat, emails, requesting formal complaint, they could not care less!

NLWorst experience in my shopping life Worst experience in my shopping life! The repaired device was sent to an incorrect address and I've spent already a week trying to find it and still no luck. All my tries to contact and find it end with the advice to contact UPS not having any information and look for it on my own. After sending it to me with an incorrect address they just say that it's not their responsibility anymore. Be aware and avoid this company.

GBGoogle watch 2 not delivered Orderd a Google watch 2 WiFi. DPD the courier sent a text saying that the watch was on its way but then changed to status to “on its way back to Google”. I raised a case with Google support. After supplying screen prints of the tracking status and texts to Google I was told that after an extensive review by their escalation team (2 days) they told me it was delivered. I informed them it was not and could they provide information of proof of delivery. I then got a message saying that their decision was final and that I was not entitled to a refund or a replacement. I again went back to them and asked if they had read any of the proof I sent to them saying it was on its way back to Google. I then received an email telling me I could take legal recourse and to have a nice day. Unbelievable! I have written to the MD of Google retail and FMCG as there is no way you can escalate the case with Google support. I feel that Google has swindled me out of £300 plus told me if I don’t like it to take them to court. Never order from this company. Their customer support is appalling and you cannot find anyone with any authority to speak to. Senior execs at Google do not give a care about their customers.
