Love Açai clothing. I can’t rate a 5 star as the return and refund process is very slow with very little communication like most other online stores. Really am hoping they improve this

Lovely clothes, but the returns process needs improving

I absolutely love the clothes and the quality is beautiful. However, I ordered a jacket which was too big and contacted ACAI straight away to ask for the returns instructions. I’m still waiting for a response.

As I really liked the jacket, I ordered the smaller size, which fits perfectly. Unfortunately, this meant paying another delivery charge. Although the jacket was half price, by ordering it twice and paying two lots of postage, I have effectively paid close to the full price.

The clothes are lovely, but the lack of response and the extra postage costs would make me think carefully before ordering again in the future.

Ordered 3 items but returned 1

Ordered 3 items but returned 1. I am still waiting for the refund 2 weeks later. This is not really acceptable as other retailers are able to refund items within a few days.

Hi Vindi

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear you were concerned about your refund.

After reviewing your order, we can confirm that we received and processed your return earlier than our standard processing timeframe of 21 days. While we understand waiting for a refund can be frustrating, in this case the return was completed more quickly than our usual turnaround.

We appreciate your patience and hope this helps clarify the situation. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact our customer service team—we're always happy to help.

Refund process needs to be fixed!

I’m a new customer, and previously posted a review praising Açai for their lovely clothing but I’m now less enthusiastic about this company. I purchased quite a few items over two orders and was unsure about sizing , so I had to return two pairs of shorts. The refund I was told was on its way was for only one pair of shorts and another cheaper item ( top) from the order which I didn’t return! I am actually due a refund of £79.65. I have sent all the details to Açai along with photos of my Post Office receipts etc as proof but Açai have only responded with an automated generic message saying they have problem with their returns process. This has really knocked my confidence in buying from them again as the returns process seems to be a bit of a nightmare. Hopefully Açai will restore my trust again soon!

Ordered next day delivery

Ordered next day delivery, item said delivered but nothing here and nothing on ring doorbell. No response to emails. No number to ring.

Edited to add, 8 days have now passed with no response. I did a charge back via my bank to get a full refund.

I am not the only person with this issue of non communication.

Edited again: I have responded with order number however still no response from my original email 8 days ago.

My order didn't arrive

My order didn't arrive, the courier sent me a notification that there was an issue with my package and it had to be returned to sender. I emailed Acai to see what had happened and ask if I could get my order replaced as soon as possible as it was meant to be a gift for someone but they never replied, I haven't had a refund, haven't had my item and haven't had a response to my email it's been really disappointing

Hi Tara,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're very sorry to hear about your experience and understand how disappointing this must have been, especially as the order was intended to be a gift.

Unfortunately, your parcel was returned to us by the courier due to an address query before it could be delivered. By the time it was returned, the item was no longer available for us to send a replacement, so we issued a full refund for your order instead.

We sincerely apologise if you did not receive a response to your email and for the frustration this caused. This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We hope you'll consider giving us another opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future.

Just awful experience

Just awful experience, particularly having been a customer of Acai for many years. I have sent three emails to customer service regarding an outstanding refund with absolutely no reply, not even an automated one. I then took the time to write the following letter to the owner on the 20 July and I have received no response. Sadly I will not be purchasing anything from this company again and I am still out of pocket.

Dear Kasia,

I hope you don't mind me contacting you directly.

I have been an ACAI customer since the early days of the company and have always loved both the quality of your clothing and what the brand stands for.

Just before the COVID lockdown, I was honoured to be invited by you and your team to a customer weekend to help shape ACAI's future. Although the event was sadly cancelled because of the pandemic, I have never forgotten what a lovely gesture it was and how valued it made me feel as a customer.
That is why it is particularly upsetting to find myself in the position of having to repeatedly chase outstanding refunds.

I am currently trying to resolve a refund relating to Order AC490303, placed on 5 May 2026, totalling £175.20.

The items were returned some time ago and, although my later return from Order AC497487 has now been refunded, I have still not received the refund for the May order.

I contacted your customer service team on 10 July and received an automatic acknowledgement advising that I would receive a response within five business days. Unfortunately, I have now received no response whatsoever.

I completely understand that your team may be experiencing a high volume of enquiries, but this refund has now been outstanding for over two months and I simply don't know how else to resolve it.

I would be extremely grateful if you could ask someone to investigate this matter and let me know when the outstanding refund of £175.20 will be credited to my original payment method.

I genuinely hope this can be resolved directly. I have recommended ACAI to many friends over the years and would much rather continue to be a happy customer than have to pursue the matter through my bank.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read my email. I hope you might be able to help.

Kind regards,

Caitlin

Hi Caitlin,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear about your recent experience, especially as a long-standing ACAI customer. We truly appreciate your loyalty and are disappointed that this has not reflected the level of service we aim to provide.

We have reviewed your case and can confirm that we have responded to your enquiry with detailed information regarding the status of each return. Please check your inbox (and spam/junk folder) for our response, and if you need any further support, please reply directly to our email and we’ll be happy to assist.

For order AC490303, this was purchased through John Lewis, so any refund queries must be handled directly by their Customer Service team, as they manage returns and refunds for orders placed through their platform.

Order AC497487 has already been processed and refunded. For order AC499971, your return is still in transit and has not yet reached our warehouse. We have contacted the courier for an update and will process your refund as soon as the return arrives and is completed.

We understand how frustrating it is to wait for refunds and apologise for any inconvenience caused. Thank you for your patience and for giving us the opportunity to clarify the status of your returns.
