Zapptax were brilliant when I used them last year but something has gone terribly wrong since then. My tax forms were approved 7 weeks ago. I’m still waiting for payment and there’s no proactive support or comms from Zapptax. In my latest chase they’ve informed me that I’ve been “unlucky” - but they have no idea when I’ll be paid because it’s down to when the tax authorities pay them and they don't have the funds to pay ahead of this. I guess I’ll just have to keep waiting until my lucky day because Zapptax aren’t interested in helping me.

Refund Was pending for few days but after getting in touch with the reactive team of ZappTax refund was sent within minutes. Just be advised that if your transfer may incur fees (foreign bank account, etc) it might take some time but eu/french accounts ok. Would recommend and use probably again.
I have been using the ZappTax service for years. Always have been paid within a few weeks or within a few months during busy vacation periods.
Super helpfull online chat or by email and easy to use. The highest VAT returns of all services in the market!
I have used Zapptax on 3 or 4 trips now and it is much easier than trying to get the VAT back yourself. They take a commission but that is often made up with by the fact that you don't have to have a minimum spend, so you end up claiming more back than you would have otherwise. Payment is prompt and they keep you informed if there are going to be any delays. Validating the forms at the airport is usually very easy at a self service machine.

2 months without refund
It has been 2 months but still no information about my refund. Tried to contact then multiple times but they have no real answer. Dont use ZappTax for your purchases.

Long reimbursement delay - 8 weeks (not what is mentioned as « their intention », they would be better off mentioning it)
Smooth application and validation process. Prompt answers to messages. The problem is… reimbursement delay. They indicate « our intention is to reimburse in 48-72h » - dont expect it - even for a first time user where you would think they could make an effort, it’s been 2 months now and they always answer the same « it is the administration that is taking longer » »it should be soon » « we are unable to give you any delay »

Incrediblly fast and professional…
Incrediblly fast and professional service. Despite several emails asking my to update my travel documents, I forgot to add one of them that was requières and ignored several emails. I have only realised my mistake when I was queuing at the customs. I have then updated the documents that were reviewed and updated in less than 2 minutes. I sent them a email and 2 minutes after my detox document was issued and I was able to show it at the customs. Totally unexpected in a normal day but even more when travelling on December 30th.
