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.

Safe for honest people
December 2, 2018

Aliexpress in general is best option (for me) in shopping on line, with the security of getting your funds back if anything is wrong. There are better and worse shops, but in general the experience is good.

Switched over from Ebay to Aliexpress
December 2, 2018

Seems like Ali have faster shipping.
Anyway you have more shipping options.
They lack good search filtering!
Bigger more expencive things like tools and machines are way better to shop at Ali vs. Ebay

On Nov. 1,2018 (order **************) we paid US $8334. 00 via wire transfer as instructed to ALLPAY Singapore at Citibank N. A. but your bank never gave you the money so our order was cancelled for non-payment. We have no money and no goods - this is a scam and theft. Citibank does not respond to request for a refund. Aliexpress service staff do not care, keep saying no payment received. Very sad.

I trust AliExpress.
November 30, 2018

In most cases, there were no trouble.

In some cases, sellers sent different products. Then AliExpress arranged the refunds.

I have ordered 100 times with Aliexpress and I am very satisfied with the clear information about articles, payement, track and trace of the ordered items proposed by their internet site. They are plenty of options that are very usefull, like contacting the seller, the protection of the buyer in case of problems with the seller, etc. Of course, as the shippment is often free, sometimes you have to wait a bit longer to receive your items, but most of the time, you receive them much faster than the longest time announced on the site. Most of the sellers on the site are very helpfull, friendly and customer oriented; 9 times out of 10 i can give a very good evaluation about my experience with the service from the seller; But of course for that, I select the sellers who have a very high rating history. This is another very usefull asset from this site. The only thing which is less performant about the site is the search engine which doesn't always propose you only items that refer to your search. But you have exactly the same problem on other important sites like Amazon, which I like a lot as well.

I have tried the site myself few weeks ago, I tested the app by ordering spare parts for my drone as a start, and my package arrived after around 21 days ( aliexpress standard shipping to UAE united Arab of emirates) all came good thankfully, but tracking number toke around a week to work, probably due to the seller slow processing time or maybe because it was global discount day that week...

The app is really nice, easy to use and navigate with huge range of many products from many sellers you may want to give it a try.
****** but make sure to find the decent seller and make sure to look carefully to his credibility and costumers reviews, store joining date ETC... because you don't want to end up with bad seller that got low credibility and low experience with serving costumers I highly advice you to do so ***** because its not aliexpress responsibility if you didn't be careful.

Looks like aliexpress has something called freebies giveaway *** sellers giving free gifts to best costumers under aliexpress supervising and recommendations *** you may want to read and learn about that, plus free coins that you can collect everyday by completing easy daily tasks, usually coins can be used to reduce items price... you may want to read about that too.

Final words that i would like to add here will be many thanks to aliexpress team of service and developers I really enjoyed my purchase and shopping online with you and I am willing to order more very soon thank you.

weak app slow shipping bad costumer service
November 16, 2018
Previous review

aliexpress app is very weak, keeps freezing, losing internet connection takes forever to launch ... and keep disconnecting .
costumer service is fake a bot waiting for your questions , and when you click live chat which supposed to redirect you to real agent you will find another bot waiting for you there again .
aliexpress is barley trusted with to many sellers out there half of them have bad reviews and low stars credibility ... you will end up confused which one you can trust or choose. processing time ,dispatching both slow half sellers process your order more than 5 or 10 days and you will end up with invalid tracking number was given by the seller ( that what happened to me ) in brief i had very bad experience with this store
