I paid for my full SHEIN order, but Buffalo is refusing to deliver my parcel unless I apply for an importer’s code. I am a private individual, not a business. My parcel is being held and delayed for n... See more

Worst logistics company I've ever dealt with. They have 10000 different stories as to where and at what stage of delivery your parcel is. Their communication is pathetic and ons each contact platform... See more

This company doesn't reserve a single star and should receive a zero rating!
It is impossible to reach them by telephone. Their number has changed and when I phone the new number, I am told that I'm number five on the waiting list. This happens five times in a row every time and then the line goes dead.
When I phone the cell number given on their website a spam message appears on my mobile phone screen. Again, no response.
I submitted the following details via email, but received an electronic answer stating that the order number isn't recognised.
Order number: BUFZ6021066220YQ
Skipper Reference number: BG-2402195ETR1SQG2P
NEFDBANK Reference Number: 4NNBPX.
VAT AND IMPORT DUTY PAYMENT OF R80-02 was done on February 29th.
Where is my parcel????????

I am still waiting for my parcel after paying the VAT and import duties two weeks ago.
This company doesn't deserve to do business on the Internet or anywhere on the globe if this is the way they treat their customers.

Dishonest liars

Dishonest liars! I work from home, I'm always home. Yet Buffalo will always lie saying my collections are canceled because they made 3 attempts to contact me. Absolutely bull!!! Zero calls, sms, whatsapp, nothing. No one ever contacts you, the drivers are just lazy and lie saying they have tried to collect. I'm sitting with 3 parcels I'm battling to return to Shein since Nov2023! Almost 3 months of fighting with Buffalo, which is useless. Unfortunately I'm done with Shein until they get rid of Buffalo. Shein needs to wake up and see how awful Buffalo is and stop employing these useless, pathetic lazy LIARS!

Customer Service is POOR!

I have a package that has been at the warehouse for more than 72hours and no information has been updated on the tracking site, when I request a live chat no one can assist me and when I ask questions the agents end the chat and I have to start from the beginning again.

Disgusting service

If I could give them 0 star i would,
Very incompetent service provider. I paid for my parcel on the 2nd of Jan, its now the 9th Jan 2024. They still say they have not received it. I email it to them as a "PDF" format several times, but still they will send a response saying, "please send POP as pdf format"
Like what the hell do they need... So frustrating and disgusting service. I tried their whatsapp helpline its even more pathetic...

I have never hated a courier company like Buffalo. I don’t understand how they are still in business. They are horrible. 3 of my orders were supposed to be delivered and every time they get returned with literally the most nonsensical reason ever. Is there a way we can make this company take responsibility with their bad service. I’m so hurt.

Waiting for a shein order but buffalo keeps sending me update emails with the incorrect delivery address, tried calling them, the whatsapp doesn't get answered. Have sent multiple emails with regards to this, got a response saying it will be resolved yet i still received another update email yesterday showing the incorrect address. It's almost impossible to get hold of anyone from buffalo. Absolutely horrendous customer service

I paid tax using their Credit card link.
Automatic reference, which means you cannot add your own reference. I have sent the traceID several times and Buffalo Logistics refuse to honour their agreement.
They are so incompetent, they keep asking for a POP which is only linked to EFT and not credit card. This is the most incapable delivery service I have ever came across.

Buffalo- micky mouse courier

Hw can your company improve u ask?- find the thieves that steal our goods and prove to us that they get justice for the stress they cause us. Imprison those rats.. Top management is responsible for the thieves at bottom level. These couriers dont even ask customers to sign. Once when asked hw com- was told company policy. That's hogwash. Hence there's no paper trail of lost goods. Pathetic service by Buffalo. 7 grievance from me. The stolen package is the cherry on top. Wake up from ur sleep Buffalo.. horrific service u don't deserve even a 1 star!

SCAM COMPANY! ORDER NEVER ARRIVED

I placed an order on SHEIN and within 2 days the order was already in SA. The problem started with this company. I kept tracking my order for days and to my surprise I receive an email saying I have successfully received my order of which I DIDN’T I was then told to wait 48 hours so they could “investigate”. They don’t communicate with you, nothing from the company, no communication from the driver. Unfortunately they don’t open on Saturdays otherwise I would have drove there myself to get my order because this is a dodgy company. NEVER AGAIN!! I hope SHEIN stops collaborating with you guys because you are giving them a bad name!

I placed an order on SHEIN and the parcel says shipped so when I put the tracking number it it says not found. I’m really worried because I’ve just lost R1500 on a “SHEIN” website that turned out to be a scam. And I can’t afford to lise another R3300. Any advise
