Shein, COUNT YOUR DAYS
October 26, 2023

Shein, you've been good so far but something has been wrong, I ordered $80 worth of items and when I check on my email, half of my items were missing and the one of the items I ordered was a total of $65 even though it is actually $7, I hate SHEIN and will NEVER use it again

The clothes are usually good for the low price; however, I received a top with a defect in addition to overall awful fabric and cut. Tried to make customer service aware that I shouldn't be subjected to having to return this item, never asked for a refund before. Their site is so disfuncional or perhaps on purpose, after many attempts I couldn't get this through to them. Had an issue with an item from a similar business. They issued a refund without return within minutes. If SHEIN had customer service I would continue to order from them. Not after this experience. I won't spend my money with a company who won't even let me communicate with them.

Items not delivered
October 24, 2023

I purchase items worth over $80.00 and receive 2 items since September. It's 10/24 and I have never receive anything. I receive 1 email that they were sorry for the lateness and they would give me extra points. I don't care about extra points I care that you have my money and no items. To get to someone its a loss cause.I need to know if this will be delivered or refund my money.

Horrible communication. No response. Clothing cheap and later to find out all sweatshop labor. No accountability to help me return clothing that did not fit. And they gave me no refund. I'm 40 years old and have NEVER written a review before, but this one deserves zero stars. Do not support this company. They stole over $300.00 from me and refused to refund and I was within the legal return 30 days guidelines.

Scammers
October 22, 2023

If I can save one person time and money, that would be great. This company is the worst. I believe they are total scammers. I placed a large order over a month ago and I never received it. Of course the tracking said the package was delivered to my mailbox. It would have never fit in my mailbox, so I know it was never delivered. I live in a very small town. If it was delivered to someone else, they would have returned it to me.
I checked with my very small post office and they were not able to locate the package either. So, no package, no items and no refund. Never again will I order from this terrible company.

Service ruined
October 21, 2023

I have been ordering from shein for awhile now and have never had any issues until my most recent order. Since shein partnered with speedx, there has been a decrease in reliable delivery. My package is missing in transit and I am currently in contact with shein to get a full refund. I no longer feel safe spending my money on shein in fear i'll have to deal with speedx handling my package. Smh

Account hack
October 21, 2023

BEAWARE of using shein website Last time I placed and order and after few days I got alert from my main credit card that some had tried to use my car to buy apple products and book plane tickeys. I didn't use the card any where else. I had to close my card got late fees on my other accounts due to change of card. This time I requested my husband to use account via PayPal and guess what his personal information has been leaked on some website. He has not done any online shopping o
Ther then this. This is really dangerous. It can't be a coincidence that we both only used shein and all of sudden our information has been leaked. I will just advice people to be very carefull.

I started noticing items missing from orders and then realized time to leave. They said the orders were complete and I was lying and it made me feel less valued as a customer and my business was not important to them, so I decided to close my account and go elsewhere. No need to deal with that. They sure did not want me buying from their sight.
