Was good now more than terrible
I have been ordering off this site for sometime. It was initially brilliant receiving items quickly and accurately. Now it is awful. I have tried to process orders but it says it doesn't recognise my paypal. Items aren't even described properly. Postage used to be capped and service good. I'm wondering if it has been sold????

A lesson in extreme frustration
I was unfortunate enough to try and purchase something from Mumgo. The order was sent to the wrong address and when I tried to get in contact with them I found that there was no phone number listed anywhere and my only option was to fill out a customer contact form.
I filled the form out and got a reply email saying that my email was in a queue and would be answered in turn which would take approx 2 business days. When I finally got a response I was told that once the item had been returned to their warehouse I would be contacted and it w...Read more
ould be resent to the correct address. I had been tracking the item with Australia Post who advised that the warehouse received the item on August 2. I waited a couple of days to hear back from them and nothing so I went back on the website, filled out another form and waited 5 days for a reply. Apparently the item has been resent and I just need to be patient. I waited another few days and still didn't receive my order. Another form filled out, another 2 days to hear a response which basically said "perhaps you didn't see our last response on this matter". I have just filled out my 5th customer service form demanding a refund or at the very least a tracking number to the apparently resent item. I'm still waiting for a response and it is now August 29, which is 27 days from the date Australia Post had advised they had returned the item back to the warehouse. I have unsubscribed from their service and will never use again. There is no custmer service with these people. No customer service,

Ripping consumers off
They pick the most expensive price comparison to say they are providing a discount, yet the real retail cost price is less than the price they are selling for! Example: they are selling a "radio flyer trike $180 discounted to $89", but u can buy on the radio flyer website for $69!! What a joke.

Used to be good but now...
I used mumgo frequently when I was pregnant and had a great experience, and postage was capped. They had some good quality products at great prices and shipping was fast.
Mumgo, however, is now merged with Catch of the Day (check out their terrible reviews!) and it has gone to the dogs. My past couple of experiences are disappointing - poor quality, very slow shipping (3 weeks!) and the wrong item sent - they did offer to arrange for me to send it back but was more effort than it was worth. The sales are same old garbage on sale over and ...Read more
over, and not relevant to baby/kids items anymore. And the postage!!!! How outrageous! I put a small order through for a baby towel and a small rattle and a small tub of cream and they wanted something like $20! I don't think so! I won't be using them again. What a shame. In the past I got some great deals It's gone downhill- postage outrageous, same old rubbish for sale1 comment

Great experience
I've been buying from mumgo for about 6 months now since a friend told me about it.
I've had nothing but positive experiences so far.
I bought my husband an electric blanket for his birthday and after about a month my side stopped heating all the way through and making a warranty claim was quick and easy, it was sorted out within the week.
My only complaint would be the lack if combined shipping ( i get sometimes orders ship separately but if you're buying 2 of the same thing you'd think shipping could be combined) and the cost of shipping...Read more

Postage is a rip off
When i first signed up and started buying through mumgo they had a $9 flat rate postage fee, which was great as i usually purchase multiple items. Now i really dont know how they calculate it but for a ladies jumper, soft baby toy and 2 small tubes of baby bum cream they wanted $26 postage! I will no longer bother with mumgo as what you would have saved you pay for in postage.
There are good deals
You dont end up saving anything as postage it too high.

Postage costs are ridiculous!
Not only is the postage ridiculous but if you don't receive an item that their computers say was sent, they won't refund you unless you take photos and keep labels! Their customer service team are rude as well. Now they have mixed Mumgo with Catchoftheday it's gone down in quality items to purchase. I wouldn't bother. Go on eBay instead!!
Convenience
Postage cost is ridiculous, returns/refunds are not handled appropriately, terrible customer service

Positive first time experience
I have to admit that I had low expectations of Mumgo once I read "up to 21 days for delivery" on my confirmation of order email and then read of other's bad experiences. However, the next day I received another email noting that my item was dispatched. Five days from my order date, the item (just what I ordered) was delivered to my door. I was kept informed of the item's delivery status along it's journey from Mumgo to me. That's great service!
Inexpensive, good communication

Wrong items received, no refund or correct items sent later!
I received the wrong items, they asked for a photo which I sent, then was told I can return the products at my postage expense and I might get a refund. Not worth it as spending on postage twice would cost more than the products worth!!! Never use this site!!!
Wrong items sent, they have no customer service skills!

Don't Waste Your Time!!
My first order with Mumgo went smoothly. Since then every order has been a disaster. I ordered two items and after 3 weeks of waiting I received an email saying that my items had been dispatched. Then a week later I received two separate emails to tell me that neither of the two items I ordered could be sent as they had no stock left! What a waste! One gift was for my best friend and I could easily have purchased something in the meantime and the other was for my newborn's nursery.

e frauds as it often completely negates the "savings" on the item. My other tip would be to pay via Paypal so you can quickly and easily receive a refund when things go wrong. I would honestly say it is better just to go to a shop or Google the product they are advertising as 9 times out of 10 I have found a better or comparable price on another website. Slow, Unreliable, Full of DisappointmentSimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Positive experience to date
As a frequent user of Mumgo i.e. about 10 orders, my experience with them to date has overall been positive. There was only one occasion when I had to follow up & my enquiry was attended to promptly. They have pretty much kept within the delivery timeframes they advertised & I have received the products intact.
Easy to order, enquiry followed up quickly

Not fast but still good
I am surprised by so many negative reviews. I have had 8 different orders with Mumgo over the past year and my purchases have always arrived in tact (pack very well) and just as described on the web advertisement. I agree that the goods generally do not arrive quickly. I have waited around 2 to 3 weeks on average. So if you are in a hurry.. go to a store to buy. I am happy to wait for a bargain!
Bargains can be great!
If you are in a hurry for your goods, go elsewhere

Terrible service, won't use again!!
I ordered a kids table and chairs set and I received the two chairs and the table base but no table top. I emailed to find out where it was, it ended up coming a week later. Went to put it together and a set of screws for one of the chairs was missing. I emailed again and they told me the only thing I could do was return the entire setting (how ridiculous) - with the process of returning goods being such a pain I will have to go out and find some suitable screws. Buying online is supposed to be hassle free - and it has been from other sites I ...Read more
purchase from - never buying from them again!! A week later the same set I bought was 'on sale' for $59 cheaper! Unreliable delivery, parts missing with no resolution & making the product considerably cheaper a week laterSimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Late delivery, Broken goods, Zero service,
I ordered melamine plates for my kids especially for their hardiness. Well, they came so late, that I had completely forgotten that I'd ordered them. They came so badly packed that they were broken & scratched. To try to return them, I filled out an online form, which they were supposed to respond to in 2 business days. Its been weeks and no response. I can't even seem to reset my password. There is no phone number. Infuriating. I am never ordering from them again. Which is really disappointing, because I was hoping to find something like the s...Read more

No delivery
Wouldn't you expect a delivery of Easter eggs before Easter especially when you order two weeks before. The goods are local products only coming from Victoria. So I need to go shopping today to purchase more for the grandchildren, then I will have an unwanted order turning up after Easter. Can you imagine trying to get a refund??? They can't even provide a phone number. I will be un subscribing once I do receive this unwanted order If I receive it.

Pathetic Service!
I have never come across such an unorganised company! I have been waiting nearly a month for my item and it hasn't even been dispatched yet! They can't cancel it/ they can't make any address changes to it- don't they have a phone number with their own warehouse?! Obviously not!!! I will never buy. I will never buy from them again!
Their procedures are at a Pre school level! My child could run a company better than they do! Not to mention their website! How annoying! Bit of advice Mumgo get a contact phone number and have a actual search engine- I would rather go to the shops at Christmas time than scroll though every single page to find what I want!!!

Exciting to see deals on offer, but disappointed every time I order
It is always exciting seeing what deals they have as they often have items that you don't see in most stores, although once you place an order, the shipping cost negates any "savings" - and every time delivery is so slow (average 3-4 weeks). Once an item that I ordered, never got delivered and after many emails (also unsatisfactorily - they need to provide a phone number) they finally tell me that item was out of stock (so if I hadn't contacted them, would they have just kept my money??) all I got was a $5 voucher to use next time. Refuse to us...Read more
e them again and prefer to go with catchoftheday.com.au instead where delivery lead time is average 1 week. Funnily enough they belong to the same corporate group ha!

8 week wait
I purchased over $100 dollars worth of stuff for my first order, after many email sent they assured me it had been sent, many more emails later they told me it hadn't been sent & I finally received it after an 8 week wait! Along with a $10 credit that expired the following week! Furious at mumgo!!! Also I ordered baby lotion which the top wasn't screwed on tight & went all thought my order, & I couldn't be stuffed dealing with them again to get a replacement. Very disappointing service
The prices seem good

Happy with Mumgo
I placed five orders with Mumgo and was happy with the quality of the items. Once they run out of a product and they were quite late with an order but I have been given a $5 credit and a $10 gift voucher. They are a reasonable internet seller, others are much worse. I would recommend Mumgo, they have good bargains sometimes.
Good and cheap products.
A bit disappointed when an item I ordered was not available anymore.
