I returned an ASOS item in perfect condition and waited over two months with no refund. I had proof it was received, but nothing was processed and no one followed up. It made managing my finances harder than it needed to be. - Amila

I sent back two ASOS orders worth $400 and never saw the money again. I even got a notification that they’d arrived at the distribution centre, but ASOS went silent. I’m still out of pocket with no refund in sight. - Phoebe

I returned an ASOS item worth $190 three months ago and still haven’t received my refund. I’ve tried reaching out, but there's been no update or resolution. It’s exhausting chasing what I’m rightfully owed. - Ugen

ASOS admitted they received the shoes I returned, yet they still haven’t refunded me. They claimed an issue on their end but couldn’t prove anything. I just want my money back-this has gone on far too long. - Vanessa

Refund FAQs

Can I get a refund from ASOS if I change my mind?

Yes, ASOS allows refunds for most items returned within 28 days in original condition. Returns must be unworn, unwashed, and have all original tags and packaging intact. Items marked Final Sale or without hygiene seals (like opened cosmetics or underwear) are not eligible. If you're unsure, log into your ASOS account to check each item’s return status before sending anything back.

How long does it take to get an ASOS refund in Australia?

Expect your ASOS refund to take 2-3 weeks from the day you post the return. Transit via Australia Post can take 2-7 days, with up to 14 days for ASOS to process it. After that, bank processing adds another 1-7 days depending on your payment method. If your refund isn’t visible after 21 days, contact ASOS support with your tracking info.

Why was $7.99 deducted from my ASOS refund?

ASOS charges a flat $7.99 return fee per parcel unless the item is faulty or incorrect. This fee is deducted from your refund automatically and is clearly shown during the return process. Keep in mind, original shipping costs are not refunded unless your entire order was faulty. Always check if your return is fee-free before posting.

What can I do if ASOS rejects my return or refund?

If ASOS rejects your return, review the reason and escalate with proof if needed. Common issues include items not in original condition or returns made after 28 days. If you believe your return was wrongly denied-especially for faulty items-Ajust can help you check your rights and push for a fair outcome without the stress.

You deserve your money back, don’t let it slip away.
