AliExpress Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of the company reflects significant customer dissatisfaction, primarily due to pervasive issues with order fulfillment, delayed deliveries, and inadequate customer service. Many customers report difficulties in receiving refunds and resolving disputes, often feeling ignored or misled by the company's support channels. Positive aspects, such as product variety and competitive pricing, are overshadowed by complaints regarding fraudulent sellers and the lack of buyer protection. This trend indicates a pressing need for the company to enhance its customer service protocols and ensure accountability among its sellers to rebuild trust with consumers.

Most material is low quality, comes damaged or in bad state. As the sellers are chinese and their english is the worst kind of language skills you can come across, most of the times they can't even answer simple questions about the products, product images are sometimes unrelated to the products and so are their subselection labels for product variations such as size or colours.

I still use AliExpress but it's getting increasingly more frustrating to use as it ages. If Ali is listening, my main gripes are:

1. EVA - the annoying virtual assistant that cannot be switched... ever.

2. The lessened ability to add items to the wishlist (now only from search result pages)

3. The scam-like behaviour of multiple sellers who quote a range of prices like $1.03-19.55 -- when the lower price is for a battery or some minor thing -- this dirty practice successfully games the AliExpress search engine.

4. Give When I'm logged in, please give me an option to save my search preferences instead of having to apply three or four filters to EVERY search.

Thank you.

Charged twice
November 19, 2019

I ordered a "Large Capacity Water Bottle with Straw" item by mistake with the wrong address, I contacted the seller to help me correct it and he told me to cancel the order and reorder, which I did. Only to realize later that the purchase money was deducted twice, I tried to contact the seller again but he didn't help me. I then contacted AliExpress customer service to complain and was told to wait 10 days to open a dispute. Days have passed and in my account all the details of my purchase have disappeared, as if they had been deleted, I do not know if by the seller or by AliExpress, but now I have neither my order, nor my money nor way to claim my refund.

Bunch of scammers
November 18, 2019

Just buy what you want from Ebay or Amazon it's a pure advice, because if you buy something you will suffer to return it that if you can. I had my horrible experience few times and was an expensive lesson so don't buy from them. Sellers may disappear after you buy and their items are pretty much Horrible quality.

Aliexpress is the best!
November 16, 2019

Ali Express is the best website from China! Buy goods for many years and never had problems! If the product is quality then confirm the order! If the product is not high quality or did not come then open a dispute and I return the money! I recommend to everyone!

Beware of FlovemeOutlet Store. I believed their rating, number of orders and good reviews. As a result, I had to wait for more than 2 months, decided to open a dispute, but they convinced me to wait a little more and if I don't get anything, they will resend. Of course, I didn't receive the item and let them know about it. They said they resent the parcel, but didn't provide me with a tracking number and were very sneaky this time. I asked them to tell me where my parcel was, but they either ignored me or used template replies that just pissed me off. I asked for a refund and they started playing their stupid games. The dispute time was over and I decided to talk to aliexpress customer service. Provided screenshots of my conversations with these crooks and one dy later they full refunded.
