customer service

Fast Resolution Through Live Chat

Multiple customers describe Pet Circle's live chat support as prompt and genuinely helpful — with staff resolving issues quickly through refunds or replacements. Customers managing auto-delivery subscriptions also note how easy it is to skip or reschedule without needing to contact anyone.

Order Stuck in Processing — Slow Email Follow-Up

A recurring pattern in 2024–2025 involves metro customers waiting well beyond the advertised 1–2 business day window, with orders sitting in "processing" for up to two weeks. After emailing support, many waited 72+ hours for a response that didn't address the core issue — leading to multiple rounds of follow-up before orders were reshipped or refunded.

Auto Delivery Charge Dispute Required Bank Escalation

Several customers report being charged for auto-delivery orders they did not intentionally set up — in one case, $120 across two additional orders over consecutive months. When contacting Pet Circle, the customer received an investigation offer rather than an immediate refund and ultimately escalated through their bank to recover the funds.

Contact FAQs

What is the fastest way to contact Pet Circle customer support?

Live chat is the fastest way to contact Pet Circle customer support, available 7 days a week from 7am to 10pm AEST. Access it through the Pet Circle Contact Us page by clicking the Help button in the bottom right corner. For urgent billing or order issues outside chat hours, call 1300 60 80 03. Email support carries a 72-hour response window and is better suited for non-urgent queries or when you need a written record of your dispute.

Can I get a cash refund from Pet Circle if I change my mind?

Pet Circle does not offer cash refunds for change-of-mind purchases - only exchanges or store credit within 30 days of purchase. If your item is faulty or not of acceptable quality, Australian Consumer Law entitles you to a refund, replacement, or repair regardless of Pet Circle's internal policy. To start a return or escalate a dispute under ACL, contact Pet Circle by emailing sales@petcircle.com.au or calling 1300 60 80 03.

How do I cancel my Pet Circle Auto Delivery subscription?

You can cancel a Pet Circle Auto Delivery order at any time through your account. There is no lock-in contract or cancellation fee. Log in, go to Order Management, select the relevant order, click the three-dot sub-menu, and choose "Permanently delete this order." If you have been charged for an Auto Delivery you did not intentionally set up, contact Pet Circle support directly and, if unresolved, consider escalating through your bank as a billing dispute.

What should I do if my Pet Circle order is stuck in processing with no update?

If your Pet Circle order is stuck in processing, contact support via live chat first for the fastest response rather than waiting on email. Pet Circle's email response window is up to 72 hours and some customers report receiving generic replies that require multiple follow-ups before resolution. If live chat does not resolve the issue, send a written email to sales@petcircle.com.au to create a documented record, which strengthens your position if you need to escalate to a formal complaint under Pet Circle's Complaints Handling Policy.
