“I ordered quite a few items from Temu, and was very disapointed. I ordered a set of egyptian coton sheets and I received Microfibers sheets instead! Not every thing has been a scam, but you need to be lucky.”
“They are selling into the UK, mains electricity products with no fuse in them. The mains plug on these products do not conform to British standards in law. The lack of a fuse is creating a fire hazard as the cable becomes the fuse! A fuse is required because British houses have a ring main configuration!
Despite highlighting the problem to TEMU multiple times, they insist on ignoring the issue and are happy to let their products BURN British houses to the GROUND.”
“After ordering a few times we have decided not to use Temu ever again, products are very cheaply made, and the performance is not as good as it’s supposed to be, some products are delivered damaged and it’s not from shipping, it’s from manufacturing or the warehouse, but basically we gave up because we couldn’t trust that what we were buying wasn’t a piece of junk, the free gifts are all cheap junk to hook you into buying more, don’t fall for it like we did, bought a mini projector for my cell phone and the image is absolute garbage, I don’t even use it, bought a shower curtain and the stitching on the folded edges is defective in a few places, bought a shower head with a hand held piece and the connector came all gouged up as if it had been cut with a hacksaw, anyway that’s what we have to say, be warned.”
“They started out good but then when I placed some orders for 1 item they sent me 4!! And charged me for them. Then I ordered 1 rug about a couple days later they sent another! I will never use them again and before they started this I bought a lot. Be careful it’s their way of scamming us!”
“It is fraud. They sold me ceramic bathroom accessories which turned out to be plastic. They advertised grill that turned out too be a sticker. They sold me green net that's turned out to be black and green. Free items where changed as well. Beware of Temu. My request for return is sitting there for the past 10-days.”
“They are such liars. They make you think your going to get free or discounted items but you don't. They just try to drain your bank account. Please don't fall for it”
“I buy quite a lot from TEMU and to be honest with you, I've had better luck with them than Amazon! It's not that difficult to determine whether an item is inferior or not on TEMU. Quite honestly - I've had bad luck with the big A because TWICE they sent me the wrong sized item!”
“I purchased 17 items to my surprise it was despatched in 5 delivers and I had to pay tax and custom 5 times which amounted more than double that I paid from temu. The items I purchased from temu is now cheaper if I bought locally.
Disappointed with temu”
“I was offered $130 in Temu credit, which sounded great at first. But when I tried to use it, I found out I had to spend at least $250 just to unlock it. That’s not a real deal—it’s just a trap to get you to spend more money. The offer is totally misleading and feels like a bait-and-switch. Be careful and read all the fine print before trusting their promotions.”
“I had purchased several products from Temu without any issues until a few weeks ago when a shipment arrived missing over half of my order. The shipping box was clearly marked with the quantity and weight. I informed Temu that my order was missing items and sent pictures for verification. However, they refused to issue a refund or send the remaining items that I had paid for.
Everything was fine until it wasn't. Temu is a rip-off, plain and simple!
P.S.
The order was for a 230 lb weight set that was supposed to consist of eight pieces:
- (2) 45 lb plates
- (2) 35 lb plates
- (2) 25 lb plates
- (2) 10 lb plates
What I actually received was a box labeled with a quantity of 6 pieces and a net weight of 45 kg (100 lbs):
- (2) 25 lb plates
- (2) 15 lb plates
- (2) 10 lb plates”
“I don't like the auto buy feature because I don't get the chance to study what I'm purchasing.
Also, when you have specials, discounts, percentage off & free shipping on some items, the items I would like to purchase are not on the list.
Your recent pop up of religious, black & education Tees are an interest (& I'm trying to get them all) but kitchen, pants/slacks, furniture, etc., are also in my mind.
Can I include items sitting in the cart on some of the discounts you offer?”
“I've been a Temu client for many years and have many problems returning some items. If I make a mistake, they ask at least 10 questions. I only want to get into my account and ask if it's okay to return some items, but it is impossible to do so.”
