“I have ordered so many things from Temu because their prices so cheap but remember that, you get what you paid for. Most things from Temu are bad qualities and some can't use them. Sometimes they don't send me my order and no refund back. Finally I stop buying things from Temu. Beware of scam.”
“I want to warn others about my experience with this company. I placed an order to qualify for a “free item” promotion, only to end up in a confusing, frustrating situation that still hasn’t been resolved.
The checkout process is deliberately misleading. They overwhelm you with huge discounts (90%+), 1-cent deals, and “free” item offers — but you can’t clearly view or review your cart before completing your order. Once you enter your payment information, you’re basically locked in without fully knowing what you’re actually being charged for.
After spending a long time carefully selecting my items, I received two full-priced products — one of which was not what I ordered. The receipt shows the correct item, so the mistake was clearly on their end. Despite that, I’ve now had to contact customer service multiple times, speak with three different reps, and submit photos of the wrong item twice. Each time, they stall or ask for more information, but never actually fix the issue. The shop owner hasn’t responded at all.
I paid for a higher-priced product and received a cheaper substitute, with no resolution in sight.
This entire experience feels like a bait-and-switch — designed to confuse customers and avoid accountability once the sale is made. If a company has to hide the truth to make a sale, that’s a huge red flag.
I’ve saved screenshots of everything and will be reporting this to my credit card company and appropriate consumer protection agencies. Be careful — once they have your payment info, you’re trapped in a mess.”
“I recently received a number of items from Temu for which I was billed. It is much easier to eat the cost than to deal with them. But here is an example of the quality of their products. I ordered a 4TYBE hard drive. When it came it seemed a little light. It worked for only 3 copy paste files. After that it was dead. Out of curiosity I took it apart to see what was inside. I tried to provide a picture. In short, the only meaningful component was a micro SD card glued to a small board. I removed it, stuck it into my PC and it worked fine. The only problem was it is a 78GB drive, not a 4TB. What else will they do?”
“So, I returned an item to Temu and received a $10 credit. I decided to spend that credit, but learned while I could use the credit, I had to buy a minimum of $20 to redeem it. OK, fine. I got an order of about $24 together and paid.
The next day, I received an email from Temu telling me to not forget the items in my cart. Yep, PayPal deducted the money alright. When I complained I was told to cancel the orders. Of the 10 items I bought, three went through - total of about $7. I canceled and got a credit. No option for a refund.
I told them I wanted my $24 refunded NOT credited. I spent about an hour trying to rectify the situation and was stonewalled the entire time. I complained to the attorney general's office. Hopefully, I'll see my money again. NEVER AGAIN, TEMU.”
“The items that came were not as they had been pictured. In order to return them I had to take pictures of the items and fill out their robot review. After all that, they approved the return and had me print a label and send the items back in the same package which I did. They claim they never received it and cancelled my return request. I can't get a person on the phone unless I pay them $5.00!!!!!!! I will never deal with them again!”
“In July, I have had 2 orders that said they were delivered but they were not. I am no longer interested in ordering anything from Temu again. I deleted my payment method and my address as well as my email address. I'm done.”
“I ordered a dress in 2 different colors same dress was sent ,dresses were inferior in quality, thread was unraveling and when attempted to reach I encountered aggravation, site was not user friendly,so I contacted PayPal which I use for buyer’s protection and Temu emailed me back and asked that if I removed the complaint and negative review, I would be reimbursed. So much time has been wasted, so Temu refused to refund. I choose not to do business with business that treats their customers as I have been treated, & am only to glad to let consumer beware doing business with Temu.”
“We ordered in the past with no problem, now we ordered and can't stop receiving items that we did not order with multiple same things with different prices that we did not authorize, had to stop credit card to stop,now left with multiple packages that we don't know what to with, so beware!!!”
“I tried to pay for a ‘free’ mystery box, which was delivery costs only, when I put all my bank details to pay for it, it was sent to a firm in Ireland (Catt-aid provider.com) which is a firm selling on-line course from code-tutor, informing me I had bought a course! A very expensive one. Unacceptable! I now have had to change my bank details. Should know better at my age! Never again Temu!”
“I ordered only 1 top but 3 were delivered. I paid for all three. I also got something which I didn't order.
Problem is, I always leave money fir all my deliveries.”
“They are trying to charge me $75.00 for a $22.76 order. I’ve tried to find customer service or ANYWHERE to talk to someone and even with Google’s directions, they are false. So far as I can see, they HAVE NO CUSTOMER SERVICE AND ARE OVERCHARGING ME. I have been mostly happy with them in the past but something is screwy now with their pricing. My sister noticed it too.”
“They do nothing but scam. I want my funds returned to my original form of payment and instead I get $17 credit for a company I would never consider using again The customer service is the absolute worst. I will consider it a lesson and don’t recommend using them at all”
“DO NOT use TEMU. I had ordered some items and specifically requested they deliver it on the front porch.Absolutely.Do not put it out by the straight, which is exactly what they did and the package was stolen.They refused to resend or credit the items that I never received. Even though I expressed NOT tp deliver it near the street.”
“I returned an item to TEMU and provided full proof of return, including the receipt and reference number. Despite this, they have refused to refund my money. I contacted customer service several times, but only received generic responses with no resolution.
This experience has been incredibly frustrating and disappointing. I followed all their return instructions, yet I’m left without the item or my money. I won’t be shopping with TEMU again and would not recommend them to others.”
“Will not be purchasing any more stuff from this Temu company anymore.
I had ordered an outside patio rug, sent Sofa cover instead… who in the world is filling and shipping , can someone not read what a customer had ordered???
Did not pick up the merchandise shipped, asked me to go a UPS store to drop it off which is about 15 miles away, or pay 7.99 $ to have UPS come pick it up.
First the merchandise sent was wrong, and then didn’t want to pick it up , the quality of goods they sell is poor and well below par.
I will not buying anything else from them again.”
