Based on recent customer reviews, Buyinstor is facing severe and consistent criticism from its customer base. A recurring theme is that customers place and pay for orders but never receive their goods, with communication channels including email, WhatsApp, and listed phone numbers reportedly going unanswered. Customers consistently mention concerns about the legitimacy of the business, referencing bounced emails, residential addresses, and unfulfilled refund promises. Even when deliveries occur, shoppers describe damaged products and unresolved collection requests. The overall tone reflects deep distrust, financial loss, and frustration with the lack of accountability.

hellopeter - can you action the blocking of this site? Ordered and paid for a product - zero response, zero updates, bogus address listed and I know I have just lost R2590. Surely you can report on behalf of all the complainants?

After months of mails complaining about the poor service the product arrived. It was broken beyond repair so I had requested a refund. Apparently this was not a problem and they requested my address details to collect. 5 weeks later the broken product has not been collected and no one is responding to my mails. Seriously do not order through these guys.
