“I ordered the textured wall covering, worked hard to transform my living room. Was really nice looking for 2 months then during a family gate one evening, the wall covering just began to fall off in front of our guest. This was humiliating. Don't fall for this company's lies and deceit.”
“I’ve been ordering for Temu for about a year. Most of the products are of adequate quality. Some of the products have dupes on Amazon that sell for twice as much. I have never had a problem with them anything I don’t like they immediately, immediately issue a refund. Actually, it’s the best company I have found for a refund. That being said, I’ve ordered some things that were very cheap and guess what when they arrived they look cheap. Other things were perfectly fine including clothes. I suggest you take the leap. You can’t go wrong for the pricing. I understand that it will take a while to arrive. For me they turn around time has been 2 to 3 weeks usually. It’s worth it to me for the savings. I recommend.”
“I have ordered from SHEIN numerous times and never had a problem. I decided to try Temu for the first time. I ordered 5 items. I received a message that my package was lost. I tracked the number on UPS for more details. Apparently the box was empty and damaged when it got to customs. I was emailed about the lost package from Temu and given a choice to reorder or get a refund. I tried to reorder but 2 of my items were out of stock and not available. I have requested a refund and will not use Temu again.”
“I orderd 12 thinga from temu some are damage and 2 jacket have large size that is not fit on my body and they didnt give me refund i waste my money i will do something about temu”
“Number 1, l have purchased quite a few items from Temu however a recent purchase of a car air freshner for $7.94 which l did not receive Temu would not refund my purchase to my credit car. Number 2, l returned a car jump starter for a $18.17 credit however Temu insists my card had been credited on June 26, 2024 them that l had not received my refund as of July 17, 2024, so l will no longer purchase anything from Temu and I no longer trust this company, Be leery of this company...”
“I would give it a zero if I could. I decided to give them a try because they were offering a free tool set but after downloading the app there was no free anything to be found and after talking to support for 10 min they had no idea what I was talking about. It's a scam and I deleted the app
SCAM SCAM SCAM”
“I had ordered several items and when they arrived, they were the wrong size very very large. I ordered a size 12 and it turned out to be more like an 1820 I returned two sets back a sweatshirt and sweatpants and a two-piece jacket and pants outfit. They were supposed to refund my money, I waited weeks and weeks. I never got a refund although the items were very cheap. It’s still came to $40 and I don’t work for free. I work very hard for $40 and I would never buy from them again because they ripped me off.”
“I have been purchasing from Temu for a long time. Usually I am pleased. The last order was terrible. I requested a return/refund for 3 items. Total cost $32.66. I was offered a "partial refund of $3.24" to avoid a trip to the post office. REALLY!
I requested a full refund and will order again until I use all the credit.
I agree with the reviews that at first Temu was great. Great service, great products until recently. Be careful what you order and read the fine print regarding refunds! D”
“Temu is an online marketplace that I once believed offered great deals and a variety of products, but my experience quickly proved otherwise. Initially, the platform seemed promising with its wide range of goods at incredibly low prices. I placed several orders, excited about the potential savings. However, the excitement turned into frustration as the weeks went by with no sign of my purchases. The delivery times were excruciatingly long, and when the packages finally arrived, they were nothing short of disappointing. The quality of the products was far below what was advertised, with many items being poorly made or entirely different from the descriptions and images on the website. Some items never even showed up, leaving me out of pocket with no recourse.
Determined to resolve these issues, I reached out to Temu's customer support, expecting a quick resolution. Unfortunately, this experience only deepened my conviction that Temu was a scam. The chat support was designed to be a convenient way to handle customer inquiries, but in reality, it was a series of automated responses that did nothing to address my concerns. Each interaction felt like I was talking to a machine rather than a human being. The responses were generic, repetitive, and often irrelevant to the specific issues I was facing. For instance, when I inquired about missing items, I received scripted replies about standard delivery times and was repeatedly asked to wait longer. Even when I managed to get past the initial automated replies, the live agents provided little help. They promised investigations and follow-ups that never materialized. Each chat session ended with assurances that my case would be prioritized, but nothing changed. Weeks turned into months without any resolution.
In one particularly frustrating incident, I received a damaged product and sought a refund or replacement. The chat support agent assured me that a replacement would be sent out immediately. However, after waiting for another month, I reached out again only to be told that no such request had been logged in my account. This cycle of broken promises and lack of accountability was infuriating. The customer support agents seemed trained to deflect and delay rather than provide real solutions. They would often disconnect the chat abruptly, forcing me to start the entire process over again with a new agent who was equally unhelpful.
The tipping point came when I tried to escalate my complaints. Despite numerous attempts, I could not get in touch with a supervisor or anyone with the authority to make decisions. It became clear that the chat support was a facade, designed to give the illusion of customer service without actually providing any. The supposed 'live chat' was a loop of pre-written scripts and disingenuous reassurances that led nowhere. I also noticed that many of the positive reviews on the website seemed fake, likely posted to lure unsuspecting customers into the same trap I fell into.
Feeling deceived and out of options, I turned to consumer forums and social media to share my experience. To my surprise, I found countless others with similar stories of frustration and loss. It was evident that Temu's business model relied on misleading advertising and subpar customer service to exploit customers. The lack of transparency and the deliberate obfuscation by their chat support reinforced the perception of Temu as a scam.
In conclusion, my experience with Temu was a stark lesson in the dangers of too-good-to-be-true deals and the importance of reliable customer service. The platform's failure to deliver on its promises, coupled with the ineffectiveness and deceit of its chat support, highlighted a systemic issue within the company. For anyone considering shopping on Temu, I would strongly advise against it. The apparent savings are not worth the risk of poor quality products, endless delays, and a customer service system that seems designed to frustrate and deceive rather than assist. Temu may present itself as a haven for bargain hunters, but my experience shows that it operates more like a scam, capitalizing on unsuspecting customers and offering little in return.”
“Several items I bought there were of poor quality. I bought 2 dashcams from them. The 1st was only 30 euro and the video was blurred. I spent 60 on the 2nd hoping it would be better. When you try to upload the videos to pc it's just a black screen with the sound.”
“I purchased a pair of shoes at $12.65 and received a wrong size (too large to wear) in Jun. 2024. I requested a "free return" and I received a $4.66 refund in July, 12th. I contacted the help button, and the real person agent told me the $7.99 deductible is for the shipping fees. I argued that shipping fees should be showed before the return starts, not after. As a result, the help center didn't issue the refund of shipping fees.
I recommend you not to purchase from this APP if your time is more valuable than the cheap price. TEMU is designed for those housewives, retired people who have no work, no income. I am a working class. After purchasing and returning a hundred of items on this website, I decided to quit.
This APP is not reliable. They do not have credibility to trust with. Sneakily charging customers the shipping fees is not the American way in doing E-Commerce. Temu should be banned. I would continue to file complaints with BBB and other government regulatory agencies.”
