Alibaba Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of the company is mixed, with some customers appreciating the variety and affordability of products offered. However, significant concerns dominate the feedback, particularly regarding customer service and support. Many users report frustrating experiences with delayed refunds, ineffective communication, and unresolved product quality issues, often feeling misled by the company's assurances. The Trade Assurance program is frequently described as inadequate, failing to protect buyers effectively. This combination of positive product experiences and pervasive service challenges suggests a need for improved customer support and better oversight of suppliers to enhance overall customer satisfaction.

First time using alibaba
August 24, 2019

Don't know why I haven't used Alibaba.com before. I ordered a couple of led quantum boards from Kingbrite. The whole process was quite easy and I received a great product just as described and it cost almost half as much as ordering from anywhere else.

A platform that offers piece of mind behind ordering from China. They stand behind every purchase you make and care that you stay satisfied. Great process.

Great service
August 24, 2019

Alibaba service is very well organized. Intuitive actions. Support at all stages of the purchase of goods. Availability of a guarantee against loss of money. One wish is to promptly remind the buyer of the end of the purchase protection period.

Basically, I felt secured with my purchasing through the trade assurance. There was only one company, whom I dealt to do a prototype of my shoe designs that I wanted produced in China, but they failed to do the exact designs I gave them to do. They modified my design and two pairs among the 5 prototypes I asked them to do, they sent me with both right foot of the shoes. That's very disappointing and unprofessional. Whilst I have paid them what we agreed as fees for my shoe prototypes.

Muy mala calidad
August 23, 2019

He recibí el pedido, las pulseras huawei honor banda4, no coinciden exactamente con la descripciones, la temperatura de tiempo no aparece, no se ve la pantalla a plena luz al hacer deporte, no se ve nada, y muy pequeña la i formación. En pantalla el podómetro y el en lace por Bluetooth falla a enlanzar, he prodo con dos teléfonos honor 20 y honor 10 lite, fallan, el software del teléfono para instala la App de la pulsera falla, he echo pruebas con dos pulseras una roja y otra negra puesta cada una en una mano diferente una en la izquierda y otra en la derecha he echo actividades durante 4 hora seguidas durante 3 días, la batería sólo duran apenas un día cargada al máximo, y cada pulsera con distintos móviles marcar diferentes pasos y no son exactos, ni en km recorridos, la pulsera de silicona donde engancha para cerrar en la mucheca provocan rozaduras,, el monitor cardíaco marca diferentes pulsaciones en los diferente dispositivos puestos a la vez en ambas manos al igual que la presión arteria, ni L hora se puede ver a plena luz, siento decir que no estoy nada satisfecho con estos productos, he echo pruebas con otra persona haciendo el mismo recorrido con la misma App instalada en otro móvil con otra persona y no coinciden ni los km, son inservibles,
