Full Refund Requested - Do not EVER buy from this company!

I placed an order on 21st January and all of the 10 items I ordered and paid for were available for order. I now discover that NONE of these items is actually in stock and your website states they are 'Temporarily Out of Stock'. I have contacted you via email on 3 occasions and have not received a reply to any of these. I have tried to call your 1800 number and it is a fax machine. Your online chat is never available. I do not believe you are a bona fide company at all and want the full amount I paid via PayPal refunded immediately and my order cancelled. I am reporting this to PayPal and am providing all the emails I have sent to you as evidence. You have debited my account and you should, by law, be providing the goods I have paid for. This is a dreadful way to be running an online company. I have never experienced such appalling service from any company i have dealt with online and it appears you have way too many other dissatisfied customers! A full refund is requested for this order.

UPDATED Menorah arrived broken in two pieces, still waiting for replacement, no response to emails...

I ordered a Menorah on 22/11/2017. It arrived broken in two pieces just before Chanukah. I emailed multiple times between 18/12/2017 and 20/12/2017 and only got a response after days that I would get a new Menorah shipped. Since then I heard nothing. I am extremely dissatisfied. No replies to emails, no replacement Menorah, unreliable, very frustrating.

UPDATED 02/02/2018. Today our replacement Menorah finally arrived. I am happy with receiving a new Menorah to replace the broken one, however I think this procedure has taken much too long (almost two months). To be fair, I have updated my review from 1 star to 3 stars. I recommend World of Judaica to invest in a larger and more responsive customer support team and to use expedited shipping for warranties.

Terrible Customer Service!!!

I received an email on November 28th informing me that the order has shipped. Tracking number only states that it has been sent to the US. I sent an email to Customer No-Service with no response. I called the Customer No-Service number listed on the email. After about 20 minutes of hearing "You are the next person in line" it finally said to send an email, or leave a message. Sent I had already sent an email, I left a message asking for a return phone call. Again, no response. I really need the product delivered this week, but am not hopeful it will arrive in time. It seems, from reading some of the other reviews, that this is a recurring issue with this company that they are either unwilling or unable to fix. However, just ignoring the customers attempting to contact them tells me that they don't really care. Terrible experience!

Still haven't got my gifts for …

Still haven't got my presents for Hanukkah.
I have tried several times to get in contact with you but can't get through. Very annoying.
I have ordered my items at the 22nd of November and payed three pounds for faster delivery. The items I ordered (and payed for) were gifts and since Hanukkah starts on Tuesday I am frustrated because the order status is still "in fulfillment". I understand that you will not be able to deliver before Tuesday, and the order is already delayed.
Therefore I am expecting a fast answer and hopefully compensation for both the delay and for not getting "the faster delivery" which I payed for.

Dear Adrian,

Thank you for your review,

World of Judaica aims to provide a good experience to all of our customers and I am so sorry to hear you had an issue with your order.

I would like to apologize for the delays encountered with your order. Such delays can occur around Jewish holiday seasons given unusually high order volume and we do our best to ship all orders out as soon as possible.

I see that the Ani Vdodi Li Blackened Silver Ring With Biblical Verse Text is delayed from the supplier and thats why the order got delayed. All other products are ready to be shipped.

I have splitted your order and opened an inquiry with our fulfillment department to get an ETA on the rign and ship what we have on the expedited method right away. Once the ring arrives we will ship it free of cost in a different package.

Rest assured that all orders are attended to and we will take care to email you the tracking information once the package ships out.

Once again, we sincerely apologize for the delay and any inconvenience caused.


Kind Regards,

Sara C.

I am so frustrated

I am so frustrated. I have ordered a Bas Mitzvah gift on October 4th. I hadn't heard anything so I have emailed....left voice message....and live chatted to be told that I would receive an email in regard to my shipment. ....and I have received no emails. Sadly, I will have to cancel these beautiful gifts because this company will not respond to my repeated requests as to when I.might receive.

DO NOT ORDER FROM THESE GUYS

I made my order on the 19 August and it is not here yet! I am not sure if they actually sent it or not as I found them to be liars.

This has been by far my worst online shopping experience ever!
The Shiping Policy is not something they regard as their obligation.
They don't have the items they publish on their website and think it is acceptable to let the customer wait for weeks until they organise the goods without even ask if the customer is able/willing to wait!

They rarely answer their emails. After I filed a complaint against them an Norton Shopping Guarantee, they contacted me and promised to refund the money yet, I never received the money.
When I compliant again, they promised again.. yet no money back.
I guess the next step will be with the Israeli Consumer Council.

Save yourself the hustle of dealing with crooks and order from other sites, not from professional liars and thieves!

Dear Hila,

World of Judaica thanks you for your feedback.

I see your order was placed on Aug 24. and shipped on Sept 06.

Unfortunately we do not control postal and custom delays that might happen during busy times of the year.

We have replied to your email and your Norton contact as well to inform you about the status of your package. It was shipped to Australia on Sept 10.

If you do not wish to keep the products we will process your refund once the package is heading back. If there are no updates from the postal office on the next week we will consider the order lost in mail and process your full refund as well.

If you do decide to keep the products we will be happy to offer you a special discount that was sent to you by email, as an apology for all the inconvenience you experienced.

Although we cant control the postal issues or eventual delays we want to make sure all of our customers have a good experience with us and we will continue to assist you in finding a satisfactory solution for your case.

Please let us know how you wish to proceed.

Rest assured we remain available to assist you on our live chat, email and toll free number.

We hope to hear from you soon and turn this experience into a good one for you.

Kind Regards,

World of Judaica
