Cancelled Order, No Refund, No Contact

Contact FAQs

What is the Puma Australia customer service phone number and when can I call?

The Puma Australia customer service phone number is 1800 786 228, a free call available Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm AEST/AEDT, excluding Melbourne public holidays. If you cannot get through by phone — which is a common experience reported by customers — submitting a request through the Puma Australia Zendesk help centre is the recommended alternative. Have your order number ready whichever channel you use, as it speeds up the process significantly.

How long does a Puma Australia refund take after returning an item?

Puma Australia's stated refund timeframe is 3 to 5 business days after the warehouse receives your return, with up to 14 business days from the date you lodged the return. In practice, customer reviews on ProductReview.com.au and Trustpilot report real-world wait times that frequently exceed this — in some cases reaching 50 days. To protect yourself, keep your return tracking details and save every piece of correspondence with Puma so you have a documented record if the refund does not arrive within the stated window.

Can I return a Puma Australia online order to a physical store?

No. Puma Australia online orders cannot be returned to physical Puma stores. Returns for online purchases must be lodged through Puma's online returns process within 30 days of purchase, with items unworn, tags attached, and in original packaging. Exchanges are also not available for online orders; if you want a different size or colour, you need to return the original item and place a new order. One free return is included per order, with additional returns at your own cost.

What are my rights if a Puma product is faulty or falls apart quickly?

If a Puma product is faulty, you have rights under Australian Consumer Law (ACL) that go beyond Puma's voluntary manufacturer's warranty. Under the ACL, you are entitled to a repair, replacement, or refund for any product that fails to meet acceptable quality standards. These rights apply regardless of how long ago you bought the item or what Puma's warranty terms say. Contact Puma as soon as possible with photos of the defect, and if you are not getting a satisfactory response through standard support channels, you can escalate your case to a consumer rights body or use a complaints platform to apply additional pressure.
