Very disappointed in Billy J

Very disappointed in Billy J, I ordered something for my wife Friday afternoon. I emailed them within 24 hours wanting to change the size and checking the tracking history it had not even left the warehouse, and was emailed back saying nothing could be down,

I think this is poor and lazy customer service.

Hi Dave,

We can appreciate your concerns here. As we offer an express shipping service, our team works hard to dispatch orders as quickly as possible.

In turn, this can mean that sometimes we are not able to accommodate order amendments.
We would always recommend checking over your order before confirming to avoid disappointment.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused, and thank you for your patience and understanding. 

If you need anything else, please let us know.

Kind regards,

Appalling customer service and quality of clothes. Fabrice feels very cheap (smell like chemicals), thin and transparent. The customer service team are so impatient and rude.

Hi Elisha,

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really sorry to hear about your experience - this definitely isn’t the standard we aim for.

We’ve had a look and can’t locate an order or any previous communication under your name, so we’d love to sort this out for you directly. If you could please reach out to our team at customerservice@billyj.com.au, we can investigate the fabric concerns and any customer service interactions right away.

We genuinely want all of our customers to love their pieces and feel supported, so we’re more than happy to look into this further for you.

Kind regards x

Billy J says they care about their customers but they couldn’t give a crap. They will take your money if the clothes are on sale and don’t fit. No exchange or store credit offered. Their size guides are useless and their customer service is horrific.

Hi Keely,

We’re disappointed to see another review as we’ve already responded in detail to your previous one.

Our policies around sale items - including eligibility for returns and store credits - are clearly stated at multiple touchpoints before and during checkout, on the product pages and in our Returns Policy. These policies applied at the time of your order and were agreed to at checkout.

We understand it’s frustrating when an item doesn’t work out, but we do need to follow the policies that are in place for all customers.

If you have any unresolved queries, our team is still more than happy to help - simply reply to your existing email thread with us and we’ll continue the conversation directly with you.

Kind regards,

Temu rip off! Ridiculous mark up.

I made an order for multiple items on Billy J, I had seen one particular set I purchased (Lacole button up shirt and short set) on Temu and the reviews on temu stated it was exactly the same as the set from Billy J, I refused to believe this, as Billy J were selling this set for $109.95 where as Temu had it advertised for $38.00. Once I received this set, I was so disappointed in Billy J and their obvious ridiculous mark up. The set I received smelt like strong chemicals, had loose cotton pieces absolutely everywhere, poorly finished seams with stitching unthreading. Fake drawstring on the shorts, the stripes do not line up on the shorts. The buttons on the shirt were unthreading. Product tag had misspelt words (which basically screams Temu) and did not specify what materials were used - it was a temu tag. The inside lining of the shorts sits LONGER than the shorts material so the liner is visible below the shorts while wearing them. The mark up on this set is disgusting because the set no way warrants being sold at $109.95!

Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that you’re disappointed with your set - this is absolutely not the standard we uphold, nor what our customers typically experience.

We do want to address a couple of points clearly. All Billy J styles are sourced through verified suppliers that meet our quality, compliance and safety requirements. We do not purchase from Temu, and we do not align our products with online marketplace listings. If an item you’ve seen elsewhere looks similar, it does not mean it is the same product, made by the same manufacturer, or produced to the same standards.

That said, the issues you’ve described (chemical odour, loose threads, incorrect lining length, and concerns with the tag) are not acceptable to us. This is exactly why we have a returns and quality-assurance process in place, and we would genuinely appreciate the opportunity to inspect the set so we can investigate this with our supplier.

We absolutely stand by the value of our products, but we also stand by making things right when something isn’t up to standard. If you haven’t already, please reach out to our customer care team with your order number so we can arrange a return for you.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention - feedback like this helps us uphold the quality our customers expect from us.

Kind regards x

Tried to return a dress

Tried to return a dress. Order number would not go through with email. So could not go any further and no reply from company when told order number will not register.
So stuck with a dress to small to wear. Will not buy anything from this company again.

Amazing!

OKAYYY. this website has my most respect. I ordered 2 dresses for my brothers wedding. They both were too big. The wedding was in 5 days. They stated for me to do another order and they'll put an urgent on it. It got here in 2 days. Got my refund. The materials aren't cheap either. I love this website and their sales people are were absolutely lovely and supportive. You've got a high praise from me !

Dresses like liquid gold

Beautiful, stunning and well made bridesmaids dresses. The fabric feels like liquid gold on. And even though is not from natural source, it doesn't make your body static like others do. Flawless. Highly recommend.

Warning for oversea buyers


I’ve been a loyal customer of this company for years, but my experience has completely changed my mind. Their return policy is terrible — you’re charged a $25 fee just to get store credit, so you’re basically forced to keep buying from them even when the items don’t match the photos or the cuts are wrong. I’ve had to return multiple items for this reason.

I decided to make one final purchase even though their products are expensive. After a month passed with no order fulfillment, I kept reaching out to customer service. They blamed tariffs and kept giving me the runaround. Then things took a shocking turn: instead of resolving the issue, they sent me an email that basically threatened me over a chargeback I filed because I never received my order.

In that email, they repeated their policies, claimed the shipping delay was “out of their control,” and told me to cancel my claim or I’d be banned from purchasing in the future. They even mentioned a $25 “chargeback fee” and tried to make it sound like my ability to shop elsewhere could be affected. I should not be intimidated for trying to get my money back for an order they failed to ship.

After all this, I ended up losing around $500 between store credit, shipping costs, and this unfulfilled order. This company used to be one I trusted, but the way they handled this situation — the fees, the lack of accountability, and the threatening tone — shows they do not value their customers.

I will never shop here again, and I strongly encourage others to be cautious.

Hi Lola,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience - we’re truly sorry to hear how disappointed you’ve been, and we appreciate the chance to respond.

We understand how frustrating it is when an order is delayed, and we apologise that the communication around this didn’t meet your expectations. Unfortunately, we are unable to see any previous correspondance, and therefore we can't locate your order number to investigate this for you.

We’d also like to clarify that when a chargeback is lodged, we’re required to respond to the bank with the relevant order information and policies. It’s never our intention to make a customer feel threatened, and we’re sorry if the communication you received came across that way.

We genuinely value the loyalty you’ve shown over the years, and it’s disappointing to hear we’ve lost your trust. If you’re open to it, we’d love the chance to look into this further and reach a fair resolution - please feel free to contact us directly at customerservice@billyj.com.au and mention this review so we can help.

Kind regards x

Will steal your money

My niece and her friend staying with me for the summer ordered a dress under my nose from here. I have been for months trying to get a refund. I sent the dress back months ago and cannot believe that they never received it. Didn’t open the package, didn’t try the dress on, it wasn’t even for me. I worked on communicating with them all along to let them know what happened. They have stopped trying to work with me on the refund even though I refused the dress through the mail. I haven’t heard anything about them and they kept my money without working to give it back. They seem like a predatory business with no help but the money they want to keep of yours. I don’t know the material of the dress or how it fits but I find it repulsive and bad business to not work with fraud and customers. I wouldn’t use them to buy anything since they don’t like working with people on refunds. I wanted to make a chargeback on my credit card but rescinded it because they said they would help me with a return and getting my money back because it looks bad on them to have a chargeback on a credit card. My card that I did not authorize my niece to use. I did everything they asked and worked my best with them to send the item back untouched and unopened. They just kept my money.

Hi Stacey,

We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We’ve carefully reviewed your case and can confirm that the order in question was placed by someone within your household, although you did file a claim with your bank for fraud.

While we understand this situation may have been unexpected, we were not provided with a return tracking number or proof of postage, which meant we were unable to locate any returned parcel or process a refund. Additionally, a chargeback was lodged for this order despite the circumstances being known, which limited our ability to assist further through our standard refund channels.

We take all refund and fraud concerns seriously and always encourage customers to contact us directly through our official return and support channels to ensure prompt resolution.

Kind regards,

Extremely horrible service

Extremely horrible service.
I ordered a dress from their website based on their sizing guide and went with a size 10 like they recommended, but it turned out way too big. I reached out to customer service for an exchange, and they told me they don’t do exchanges—only returns. So I tried to return it, but then they said I couldn’t because it was part of a “final sale.” Honestly, I feel misled and cheated. If it weren’t for their sizing advice, I would’ve picked a smaller size and avoided all this. Now I’m stuck with a dress I can’t wear and lost the money too. They need to take accountability for the information they put up on their website. Absolutely ridiculous.

Hi Ankita,

Thank you for your feedback.

We’ve reviewed the email correspondence regarding your order, however could not locate any size recommendations directly from our team. Our size guide is provided as a general guide only and is based on body measurements, not garment measurements.

Our Final Sale policy is clearly stated at multiple stages of the shopping experience, including on the product page, in the cart, and at checkout. As such, items marked as Final Sale are not eligible for return or exchange for change of mind/incorrect sizing.

We understand your disappointment, however the details of your purchase and our communication align with the policies and information provided on our website.

Kind regards,

⭐ 1 Star — Utterly Disappointing Experience: Misleading Product, Broken Promises, and Poor Customer Service
I wish I could give zero stars. My experience with Billy J Clothing has been nothing short of appalling — from unclear product information to contradictory communication and a failure to honour written commitments.
I ordered the Kimberly Midi Dress (White), which clearly did not meet its description and was not as described. The fabric and overall quality did not reflect what was advertised, and the dress I received had no care tag, making it impossible to confirm its stated composition.
After returning the dress at my own cost and following up repeatedly, I was met with dismissive and inconsistent responses. I referenced the Australian Consumer Law, which states that when an item does not match its description, the consumer is entitled to a full refund, including postage costs.
Billy J initially refused to refund the postage, but after I escalated through PayPal, they confirmed in writing that I would receive a full refund including all postage costs. I withdrew the PayPal dispute in good faith — only to then receive less than what was promised. When I queried this, I was told that the refund was “complete,” directly contradicting their earlier message.
This entire experience demonstrates:
Poor product transparency
Dismissive customer service
Contradictory communication
Failure to honour written refund promises
I’ve wasted hours dealing with this, only to be left frustrated and disappointed. It’s deeply disheartening to see a company operate with such little regard for customer satisfaction and trust.
If you value honesty, quality, and accountability — shop elsewhere.

Thank you for your response, but several points need clarification.
The dress I received had no care label attached, so I strongly suspect that the image you provided is not from the garment I purchased or returned. The fabric was 70% linen and 30% viscose, and did not feel consistent with pure linen, which prompted my concern in good faith.
Furthermore, your team promised a full refund, including both the original and return postage fees, yet while the dress and original postage were eventually refunded, the return postage has still not been reimbursed. It also took 10 days after you received this (confirmed by Australia Post) dress to receive any refund, and this only occurred after I personally contacted your team to follow up. For reference, here is the email I received from your team:

Hi Dianne,

Thank you for your reply. We appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns and would like to provide some clarification to ensure there is no further misunderstanding.

Our records confirm that your Kimberly Midi Dress – White was returned and inspected by our team. The garment did contain the correct care label - located on the inner lining- clearly stating 100% linen, which aligns with the product description on our website. A photograph of this label was provided to you during our earlier correspondence. We stand by the accuracy of that image and can confirm it was taken directly from the returned item. Although you have stated the label was not present, it appears this may have simply been overlooked on your end. It is a legal requirement that garments have a care label attached, and we take this very seriously. We recognise that you have disputed its presence to support your perspective; however, we wish to clarify for transparency that the label was indeed attached to the garment.

Regarding your refund, you were reimbursed the full amount of $70.46 AUD, comprising the dress cost ($58.46) and your original shipping fee ($12.00). As explained, the return postage fee was not deducted from your refund, meaning you received a complete reimbursement in good faith. There are no outstanding amounts owed for this order, and a detailed explanation along with supporting evidence has already been provided.

While we understand this experience has been disappointing, we have thoroughly reviewed and addressed each concern in accordance with our policies and Australian Consumer Law. Our team has communicated transparently and acted promptly at every stage, including following up with proof of inspection and processing your full refund.

We recognise you may continue to feel dissatisfied; however, the information and actions provided are accurate. We do appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to clarify the matter.

Kind regards,
Billy J Team

Unhelpful Response to Size Issue

I purchased a dress from the final sale collection. I followed the measurements before placing the order, but when I received the dress, it was quite tight. I understand that final sale items can’t be returned, but online shopping can be challenging as even when following the measurement chart, sizing can still turn out too tight or loose. I emailed them hoping to return it for a bigger size, but there was no negotiation at all. Very disappointing.
