Fiona & Co SCAM - DO NOT TRUST
I saw and clicked on an ad for Fiona & Co on Facebook marketplace. They advised themselves as a Sydney based company that has been in business for decade. I fell for the spiel and purchased from this company 2 dresses, that were supposed to have embroidery on them, and a pair of green "orthopedic" soft leather shoes. Unfortunately, I didn't review the company further until I had paid for the items. What initially made me suspicious was the fact that on my credit card statement, my money went to a company called "Seta service" and I was charged a foreign fee on the purchase. I discovered that this was a company based in China, and when I tracked the order it was confirmed that it was being shipped from China. I immediately emailed the company and told them to cancel my order but was told that wasn't possible as it was already in shipping, which according to the tracking it didn't leave the warehouse for 10 days, so that was a lie as I had emailed to cancel only a few hours after placing the order.
What eventually arrived from China, some 18 days later, were 2 ugly printed dresses made of polyester and no embroidery at all on them. They smelled funky too. Also the shoes were a hard plastic with some type of material over them that the seller is trying to say is vegan leather. I have some items that are vegan leather and these shoes are NOT vegan leather. Also, the sole of the shoe is plastic and definitely not orthopedic. I contacted the seller and she is trying to get me to exchange the items for something else. I had already looked at the items on their website and only wanted the 2 embroidered dresses and the leather shoes I had ordered, so I don't want an exchange and because they have been dishonest I don't wish to purchase from thm anymore anyway! I told her I want ALL of my money refunded or I will go through PayPal for the refund. She hasn't replied again. Definitely not an Australian company, and the quality of the items are rubbish. Definitely not high quality as they have advised. I would rather buy through Temu. At least you can return things easily though Temu if the quality isn't up to scratch. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!
