Common Kmart customer issues and complaints
Here are the most common support complaints Kmart receives—based on forums, reviews, and customer reports:
- 📦 Cancelled Online Orders: Items marked "in stock" sometimes get cancelled after checkout due to sourcing issues.
- 🚚 Late or Missing Deliveries: Delays with third-party couriers are a common pain point, especially during peak periods.
- 🔁 Returns Without Receipts Refused: Since Aug 2024, proof of purchase is required for all returns. No exceptions.
- 🧾 Refund or Billing Frustrations: Problems processing refunds or errors in payment charges occasionally occur.
- 🤖 Chatbot Fatigue: Some customers say the 24/7 live chat system can loop or struggle to reach a human agent.
Kmart does address these complaints, but being prepared (with your receipt, order number, or photos) can mean the difference between delays and a quick fix.

Kmart Contact FAQs
What should I do if my Kmart online order is cancelled or missing items?
If your Kmart order is cancelled or arrives incomplete, you'll get an automatic refund for missing items. Delivery fees are refunded if most of the order is affected. To avoid delays, contact support via live chat or phone with your order number handy. For faster fixes, try Click & Collect instead of home delivery, especially during busy periods.
Can I return a Kmart item without a receipt?
No, Kmart requires proof of purchase for all returns as of August 2024. Without a receipt or digital confirmation, returns-even for gifts-are declined. Always ask for a gift receipt or save digital copies of your order. Having these ready speeds up store returns and avoids disappointment at the counter.
What’s the fastest way to get help from Kmart customer service?
Use the 24/7 live chat for quick responses-ask for a human during business hours if the chatbot stalls. For urgent issues, phone support is best, though wait times spike during sales. If it’s non-urgent, the enquiry form or in-store visits work well. Keep your order number or receipt ready to speed things up.
What are Kmart’s refund and return rules for faulty items?
Faulty items can be refunded or replaced under Australian Consumer Law-even after 60 days. Bring your receipt to any Kmart store for resolution. If you're out of warranty but still eligible, staff can escalate your case. You don’t need to return online purchases by mail-store drop-off is allowed and often faster.
