Asos shoppers baffled after being told they'll be waiting 'years' for deliveries

ASOS shoppers have been left baffled after they placed their recent orders, only told that they would be waiting a little while longer than usual for their must have items.

The online marketplace which sells clothing, homeware, beauty and skin-care items, to name a few, have many delivery options from next day, nominated day and standard.

They also have the option of ASOS Premier costing, at present, £11.95 per year which gives you unlimited next day delivery without having to pay their fee each time.

However it seems that regardless of which option some shoppers went for, they won't be getting it anytime soon.

It comes as one Twitter user took to social media to show that her order has an expected delivery date of over two years.

Taking to Twitter one shopper said "My friend ordered a parcel on my ASOS and it will arrive 803 working days later than expected she just has to wait 26 months for the parcel."

In response to her post, one person replied: "A friend of mines order won’t arrive till July 2030. Hahaha" as they attached a screenshot of their order, similar to that of above, but it instead shows 1,974 working days.

And in an even bigger shocker, someone showed their order with an expected 2,040 working day delivery estimation as they captioned it: "Yep I got the exact same thing, except I get to wait 7.8 years."

In response, an ASOS spokesperson told Edinburgh Live: “We’re aware that a small number of customers in the Republic of Ireland have received emails stating their parcel won’t be delivered for quite a while.

"We’re sorry for the mistake caused by a technical issue on our side, which has now been resolved. We’ve contacted all the impacted customers to apologise and inform them that their parcels are arriving one day later than planned – not one decade!”
