Sun & Sand Sports

WORST ONLINE SHOPPING EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD — DO NOT RECOMMEND

WORST ONLINE SHOPPING EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD — DO NOT RECOMMEND I ordered a pair of Nike Vomero Premium from Sun & Sand Sports, and what I received was absolutely unacceptable. The shoes arrived in a degraded/defective condition, with visible glue all over the sides and an actual cut on the shoe. This is not what anyone should receive . . . when paying for a new pair of shoes. I immediately tried to return the item. However, when the delivery driver arrived, he refused to accept the return and told me that I had to contact customer service first. Fine — I tried. And this is where the nightmare started. I called customer service and was told that someone would call me back within 24–48 hours. Nobody called. I tried contacting them through chat, with no proper response or resolution. I also emailed customer service, yet I am still left chasing them for a basic return of a defective product that THEY delivered. Why should the customer have to waste hours trying to get a defective item returned? The whole process is unbelievably frustrating. You receive a damaged/defective product, the driver refuses the return, customer service doesn’t properly respond, emails go nowhere, chats are useless, and phone support simply tells you that someone will call you back — but nobody actually does. This is not customer service. This is the customer being forced to do all the work to correct a problem that was not caused by them. Order Number: AE03644723-7297 I have wasted an unreasonable amount of time dealing with this. I ordered a new pair of shoes expecting a normal shopping experience, and instead I received a defective item and had to spend my time chasing the company just to get a return processed. Absolutely unacceptable. Extremely disappointing. Worst experience I have had with an online sports retailer. If you are considering ordering expensive shoes online, think twice before ordering from Sun & Sand Sports. The product quality control and, even worse, the after-sales/return support have been extremely disappointing in my experience. 0/10 experience. I would not recommend Sun & Sand Sports to anyone.

Pure Scam. Deceptive Return Policy and Invalidated Claims for Faulty Laptops (Order: 105357)

Do not trust Revibe UAE. I am having the exact same nightmare experience detailed by multiple users on Reddit. I purchased a refurbished Dell 7420 (Order: 105357), and it is completely defective. Just like the experiences shared by other disappointed customers online, Revibe uses deeply dishonest tactics to avoid taking accountability. When you . . . report a major technical fault with a laptop, they drag their feet on support. Then, once they finally take the device for an inspection, they issue a blanket rejection. They completely ignore your written evidence and screenshots of the hardware failing. Instead, they send a generic, short video showing the laptop “working normally” to declare your warranty or return claim “invalid”. Worse yet, once they falsely invalidate your claim, they attempt to hold your device hostage. They either demand exorbitant shipping fees to return your own broken laptop to you, or they threaten a predatory 20% processing deduction fee plus delivery charges if you push for the refund you are legally owed. Their advertised “easy returns” and “rigorous inspection processes” are a total illusion. They wait out your return period, send a single video to override your valid claims, and try to exhaust you emotionally until you give up your money. If you are considering buying a refurbished device in the UAE, DO NOT BUY FROM REVIBE. They are untransparent, their policies are highly misleading, and their customer service is completely useless. I am officially escalating Order 105357 to the UAE Consumer Protection authorities. Save your money and buy elsewhere.

Right Solution


Bad

1 star review and very bad experience. NEVER recommend to anyone

⭐ 1/5 – Very disappointing experience with Right Solutions Garage (now Orange Garage) in DIP. I took my car there because of a noise that increased at highway speeds. They diagnosed it as brakes, bearings and tyres and quoted around AED 4,200, including AED 3,800 for parts. I sourced the same required parts for around AED 1,900. Later, they . . . identified additional radiator/cooler issues and charged me another AED 2,400. After nearly two weeks, I collected the car — and the original noise was still exactly the same. The supervisor then insisted the tyres were the problem, so I replaced my 2023 tyres for another AED 1,500. Still, the noise remained. After rechecking, they then blamed the propeller shaft and suggested either removing it and driving without it or spending another AED 2,000–3,000 to replace it. I finally took the car to another garage in Sharjah. They correctly diagnosed the issue as the front differential, replaced it with a used unit for AED 2,300, and the noise was completely resolved. I spent thousands of dirhams unnecessarily because of repeated incorrect diagnoses. Based on my experience, I had very little confidence in the supervisor’s technical diagnosis. Definitely a 1-star experience for me.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND

We paid for a specific flower arrangement and service, and what was delivered was completely unacceptable and fell far below what was promised. The actual flowers were in a condition that did not remotely match the expected standard. What made the situation even worse was the way the company handled the complaint. Instead of properly refunding . . . us for a service that was not delivered as agreed, they offered a discount on a future order — essentially asking us to spend more money with them after they had already failed us. We have photos, videos, and screenshots documenting the flowers we received and the company’s response. I would strongly recommend potential customers look carefully at the quality of service and, more importantly, how complaints are handled before placing an order.

Sharaf DG


Bad

Pre-order

I am extremely disappointed with my experience with Sharaf DG. I pre-ordered the iPhone 18 Pro Max on 12 September, and I am still waiting for my order to be delivered. What should have been an exciting purchase has turned into a very frustrating and disappointing experience. The biggest issue has been the extremely poor customer service and . . . lack of clear communication. Despite placing a pre-order, I have not received the level of service, information, or reassurance I would expect from a major retailer. Customers should not have to repeatedly chase for updates or remain uncertain about when their order will actually be fulfilled. If Sharaf DG accepts pre-orders, they should have a reliable process in place to fulfill those orders and communicate honestly and clearly with customers when there are delays. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Sharaf DG. In fact, I would advise others to carefully consider their options before placing a pre-order with Sharaf DG. Very poor customer service, very poor communication, and a very disappointing overall experience. I sincerely hope Sharaf DG improves the way it handles pre-orders and customer support.

Wasl Group Properties


Bad

Unreasonable Policies and Complete Lack of Flexibility

As a tenant with Wasl, my experience with their customer service and management team has been extremely disappointing. While they manage large properties across Dubai, their operational approach is entirely rigid, bureaucratic, and devoid of any human element. If you face any temporary financial constraint or require minor adjustments such as . . . splitting an installment or requesting a short payment deferralو do not expect any support or understanding. Despite maintaining a good payment track record and proactively reaching out weeks in advance to offer structured payment solutions (including accepting late fees), their default response is a robotic “it is against policy.” Their customer care team lacks the authority to assist, and their legal/collections department pushes for rigid, automated legal escalations rather than working out a reasonable solution with communicative tenants. For a company of this size in the UAE, the complete absence of flexibility, customer empathy, and basic human consideration is appalling. If you value a landlord that treats tenants as partners rather than just contract numbers, I strongly advise looking elsewhere.

I came to DentalDate because I had pain in my jaw for some time and wanted to understand what was going on. Everything was exactly as they describe on their website.

What I liked most is that the doctor explained . . . everything in detail. I asked a lot of questions and nobody was in a hurry, they answered all of them patiently. After the diagnostics they made a clear treatment plan for me, step by step, so now I understand what will happen and why. The staff were very polite and friendly from the reception to the doctor. The clinic is clean and comfortable, and I felt relaxed, which is not easy for me at the dentist. I’m going to continue my treatment here.

Aims Healthcare

Scam – AIMS HEALTHCARE REVIEW

⚠️ SCAM ALERT – GET THE FULL PRICE IN WRITING BEFORE THEY ARRIVE My girlfriend is pregnant and was extremely sick and vomiting, so we urgently needed help. I contacted this company specifically asking for a saline drip. They gave me what seemed like a reasonable price over WhatsApp, so I agreed for them to come out. Once they arrived, . . . however, multiple additional treatments and medications were added, and I ultimately ended up paying an unbelievable 7,000 AED. The bill included 1,350 AED for ondansetron, 1,500 AED for electrolytes, 1,650 AED for multivitamins and 950 AED for an additional 250ml of hydration. Afterwards, I checked other Dubai providers. I have screenshots from two competitors showing their advertised prices for comparable treatments, so people can see the price difference for themselves. Based on the comparisons I made, some of what I was charged was around 3× the prices I found elsewhere. What makes this particularly upsetting is that my girlfriend was pregnant, vomiting and needed treatment quickly. We were in a vulnerable situation and our priority was making sure she was okay — not questioning the price of every medication being offered. I came away feeling that our urgency and vulnerability had been taken advantage of. My experience was that the initial WhatsApp price sounded reasonable, but the final bill became dramatically higher after they arrived and additional items were added. I strongly recommend getting the TOTAL price of everything in writing before they arrive. If they suggest adding anything during the visit, ask exactly what it costs before agreeing. I paid 7,000 AED for what started as a request for a saline drip. I’ve included screenshots of two competitors’ pricing so people can make their own comparison. I feel completely ripped off and would never use this company again.

Very disappointing experience with Pastel Cake

This was my first order with Pastel Cake, and unfortunately, the experience has been extremely unprofessional from start to finish. I pre-ordered the cake one week in advance and paid for it, yet on the day of collection, the cake was not ready. To make matters worse, I still had not received an invoice or even an order ID confirming my . . . purchase. I contacted customer service on WhatsApp at +971 50 126 5229, but received no response at all. There was no proper communication, no order confirmation, and no invoice provided. I have also been calling customer service since this morning, and I have been given different information by different people, which has made the situation even more frustrating. To top it all off, our driver’s time was completely wasted. We were originally told to collect the cake from Kitopi, so our driver drove there, only to be told upon arrival that the collection location was somewhere else. He was then sent to a different location. For an order that was placed one week in advance, this level of disorganisation and lack of communication is simply unacceptable. I understand that mistakes can happen, but the complete lack of coordination, customer service, and clear information made this a very frustrating experience. This was my first order with Pastel Cake, and unfortunately, based on this experience, I would think twice before ordering again.

HSBC UAE


Bad

Extremely disappointing experience with HSBC UAE after nearly 20 years as a customer.

Extremely disappointing experience with HSBC UAE after nearly 20 years as a customer. I received an offer from HSBC to pay school fees before 15 September and convert the payment into 3 or 6 monthly installments. Before making the payment, I specifically called HSBC to understand the process and was clearly advised to pay using my credit card, . . . then call the bank to activate the installment facility. I was told that the amount would be credited back to my card after deducting the first installment and that this would happen within approximately 2 days. I followed the instructions exactly and made a substantial payment, using almost my full credit card limit. I immediately contacted the bank and activated the facility as instructed. After waiting more than 2 days, I was then informed that the amount would not be credited back as I had been told. I raised a complaint, and HSBC acknowledged that the information provided to me was incorrect and misleading. What is most disappointing is that, despite acknowledging the incorrect information, HSBC did not make any genuine effort to find a solution. I was simply contacted and told that “nothing can be done.” This has created a significant financial problem for us, as almost the full credit card limit is currently tied up, at a time when we have other financial commitments. After almost 20 years with the bank, I find this level of customer service extremely disappointing and unprofessional. Mistakes can happen, but what matters is how a bank takes responsibility and resolves the problem when its own representative has provided incorrect information. I expected HSBC to take ownership of the situation and make a genuine effort to resolve the financial impact caused by its own incorrect advice. Unfortunately, that has not happened. Very disappointing experience, especially after such a long-standing relationship with the bank.

Revive Hub Renovations Dubai


Excellent

0 pressure renovation experience

For me honestly the best part was that from day one I never felt any pressure from them. I have dealt with contractors in Dubai before and usually the first conversation quickly becomes about advance payment, booking amount etc. With Revive Hub it was actually different. I already had a renovation quotation from another company, so first I just . . . went to them to get it audited and understand if the pricing and scope was fair. They did that for free and there was no pressure at all to hire them. After that they also prepared a free 3D preview for my place, again before I had commited to anything. That was probably the point where I decided to go ahead because I could actually see what I was going to get rather than just imagine everything from a quotation. The best thing is what we locked in the 3D and discussed before starting is pretty much what they delivered in the end. Their team was very cooperative throughout, especially when we wanted to change or adjust small things. They give suggestions but dont push you into expensive choices or make you feel pressured. Honestly this whole approach felt something new for Dubai renovation market. First understand the project, see the design, then decide yourself if you want to go ahead. Really good experience overall and a nice team to deal with.

Today was my last try was Keeta. Repeatedly thay had been disappointing with wrong item delivery. When frustrated and requested refund they have denied the request.

Such a let down

I wonder if any of the reviews are real. This place has potential but that’s about all that is positive. Zero vibe, bad food, insipid service. Drinks were just sugar and water. Food had no seasoning except the vegetarian option which was drowned in salt! The club upstairs was okayish but they wouldn’t serve there. A waste of a Friday evening . . . . Avoid .

Renovation in Palm Jumairah Experience

We had our home in Palm Jumeirah renovated by Revive Hub. What stood out was that they showed us a free 3D preview before the work started. We could actually see how our bedroom, kitchen and living area would look together. That approach was new to us. It made the process feel more transparent because we understood the design we were agreeing . . . to. The white kitchen cabinetry, bedroom wall panelling and lighting give the rooms a consistent feel. I’ve attached a few photos of the finished space.

HOC Furniture

I decided to purchase mattress from this store and guess what happened.

I placed the order on 24 August and agreed on delivery for 26 August. The delivery did not happen, and no one contacted me with any update. I had to follow up myself to understand what was happening. I was then told that the mattress was still going through customs clearance, even though I had specifically been assured before placing the order . . . that it was in stock. Later, I was told that delivery would happen the following day by the evening. I already had urgent plans, so this level of uncertainty did not work for me. I clearly informed them that delivery could only happen before 2:00 PM. If that was not possible, I asked them to process a refund instead. By that point, I had already received too much contradictory information and did not want any unnecessary drama — I simply needed the mattress I had ordered. The next day, communication was again unclear. Eventually, the mattress was delivered at around 2:30 PM, disrupting my work meetings. When I saw it, I was genuinely shocked. The mattress was made in two different colours and was clearly not what I had ordered. The delivery team explained that the mattress had only just been manufactured, that they had run out of the original material, and that some of the material had therefore been substituted. At that point, I had had enough. They strongly asked me to keep the mattress temporarily and promised that they would deliver another one the following day. However, the next day was a public holiday, which made me question whether the information I was being given was realistic at all. By then, I had completely lost confidence in the company’s communication and in their ability to provide accurate information. On 27 August, I requested an immediate refund. I was told that the refund had been requested, but when I asked for written confirmation or a refund receipt, my request was ignored. I followed up again on Friday and was told that nothing could be done because of the public holiday. I followed up again on Saturday and was then informed that a refund to the original payment method was supposedly no longer possible because more than 24 hours had passed. At that point, I started challenging the company because I could not understand how their internal processes could result in the customer losing the ability to receive a refund through the original payment method, especially when the delay had been caused by the company itself. Around a week later, I was told that the refund had finally been approved, but that they could only provide it either in cash or by bank transfer. I again explained that I required the refund to be processed through the original payment method, which was Tabby. My partner then visited the store in person because the company did not appear willing to make any meaningful effort to find out how the refund could be processed correctly. After further discussion, we insisted that they contact the company servicing their POS terminal and include us in the email communication. The POS provider then confirmed that processing the refund was not a problem and that the merchant simply needed to replenish their internal payment account. Despite this, we again started receiving unclear responses such as “we don’t know how to do it” and similar explanations. Shortly afterwards, the merchant removed us from the email CC, so we no longer had visibility on the communication with the payment provider. At that stage, we had already submitted a complaint to Consumer Rights and simply wanted to end the matter. We therefore agreed to accept cash instead, even though this was not our preferred option. We went to the store again after already waiting for weeks for the refund. The company then told us that the situation was our fault because we had not accepted the refund options they had previously offered. When we finally requested the cash, we were told that there was no cash available in the store and that we needed to come back yet again the following day. At that point, after weeks of delays, repeated visits and constantly changing explanations, we were extremely frustrated. We even contacted the police for guidance. However, because a Consumer Rights complaint had already been registered, there was little else we could do except continue waiting for the official process. The following day, we returned to the store again. A representative went to check the status of the cash refund and then came back and suddenly told us that the refund had actually already been processed through the original payment method. Once again, the company had apparently not checked its own communication properly. Because we had also been removed from the email CC with the payment provider, nobody had kept us informed of what was actually happening. The merchant did not provide us with a proper refund receipt or transaction confirmation. They only showed us a general list of store transactions, so at that moment we still had no clear documentary confirmation that the refund had actually been completed. I am now waiting for contact from an inspector from Consumer Rights. I would like the company’s conduct and customer handling to be reviewed, because the issue was not simply a delayed refund. It was a repeated pattern of contradictory information, lack of proactive communication, failure to follow up internally, and making the customer repeatedly chase a resolution. I also attempted to leave a Google review describing my genuine experience as a customer. Google initially restricted the review under its “fake engagement” policy and my appeal is currently being reviewed. However, I would not state that this proves the company’s existing reviews are fake, because Google’s moderation action alone does not establish that. My concern is simply that I should be able to share a genuine, factual account of my own experience. NOT RECCOMEND!

Disappointing experience

My wife and I decided to try this restaurant out in the beautiful address hotel in creek Harbour. The restaurant itself was well designed. We decided to order a couple of steaks with a side. Waiting for the bread which is typically standard at such a restaurant, we were told it is chargeable at 39dhs. Reluctantly, I agreed expecting a freshly baked . . . loaf of bread but was met with a very obviously store bought loaf with some butter. OK, I let it go until I selected the tomato and onion side with my steak. At 49 dhs, iw as shocked that I recieved, literally, a single tomato which was sliced and drizzled with some onions. OK, the menu did not necessarily lie but for 49dhs I was not expecting something that I can make in my kitchen with 0 effort. It was shameful to say the least. After complaining I was expecting that they would remove the charges for both x but unfortunately I was sorely mistaken…. They did however give me a complementary dessert (which was delicious and worth the 40dhs I would have paid if I ordered it).. The steaks were OK but a bit overpriced… Potential, but sadly very disappointng…

Azizi Developments


Bad

INVESTOR DUE DILIGENCE WARNING: Escrow non-compliance, unremitted statutory fees, and formal DLD regulatory sanctions.

As a deep-tech investor and venture funder, I evaluate risk and contractual compliance for a living. I am publishing this audit of my dealings with Azizi Developments with full documentary evidence, official bank/cash receipts, and formal regulatory findings. Across two off-plan studio transactions (initially booked and subsequently swapped at . . . the developer’s request), I paid a total of AED 238,684. What the paper trail reveals is a severe breakdown of regulatory standards and off-plan governance: 1. Bypassing the Statutory Escrow Protection System UAE off-plan property laws exist to safeguard investor funds via certified project escrow accounts. In direct contravention of this framework, Azizi accepted substantial funds in physical cash on-site-my official receipt explicitly states: “Cash 13th floor Office”-with the balance via card. None of this capital was routed through a designated project escrow account. Crucially, the escrow account field on the Offer to Purchase (OTP) was left entirely blank. 2. Collection and Withholding of Statutory Government Fees Azizi collected AED 66,320 earmarked specifically for the 4% Dubai Land Department (DLD) transfer fee, alongside Oqood registration and administrative charges. A subsequent title search revealed that Oqood registration was never executed, and the statutory transfer fees were never remitted to the government. 3. Asymmetrical and Non-Executed Contracts While the developer aggressively stamped receipts as “NON-REFUNDABLE” on day one, neither the primary Offer to Purchase nor the unit swap agreement was ever signed, counter-signed, or stamped by Azizi’s authorized signatories. In practice, the developer operated under the posture that the buyer is bound to capital forfeiture, while the developer bears zero formal contractual counter-obligation. 4. Unilateral, Post-Payment Contract Alterations When a standard administrative name update was requested, Azizi unilaterally imposed retroactive demands months later: requiring an immediate ~34% capital injection plus an uncontracted AED 5,250 fee, conditions documented nowhere in the original transaction materials. 5. Formal Regulatory Sanctions Confirmed (DLD) Following these practices, I submitted a formal legal complaint to the Dubai Land Department. Following an official investigation, the regulator formally confirmed regulatory violations against Azizi Developments and directed the recovery of funds to the Dubai Courts. The Bottom Line for Prospective Investors: The showroom presentation and marketing collateral do not reflect the operational reality. When an off-plan developer takes transactions outside escrow, fails to register government titles, leaves their own contracts unsigned, and forces institutional investors into formal litigation to recover baseline deposits, the operational risk is intolerable. Before wiring or handing over a single dirham: Demand the verified project escrow IBAN in writing prior to payment. Verify simultaneous execution and stamping by their legal representative. Independently verify with the DLD that your 4% transfer fee has cleared into the government registry within 30 days. Full litigation is underway. Every receipt, unsigned contract, and regulatory finding is preserved on record.

We live in a villa and when I order groceries we have a box outside to put the orders and its just nice that they make sure to leave it in a proper condition and to close up the box before . . . leaving.

Sharaf DG


Bad

Poor customer service

I bought a Canon EOS R50 in Sharaf DG Deira City Centre Mall Branch but the content creator kit was not complete. The memory card was missing because they told me the 8gb was out of stock and I have to go back after 2 days. I went but still out of stock until they just kept on delaying it. Such poor customer service.
