Hello,

I apologize for this situation, but this is not the SHEIN site. Unfortunately, you have found a fake website representing SHEIN.

If you have made a payment, we suggest that you report the fraudulent activity directly to your card bank and ask them to help you initiate a chargeback as soon as possible. This is the fastest and safest way to get your money back.

Thank you for your understanding.

I noticed 2 fraudulent charges on my bank card from SHEIN I had never even heard of. I contacted them to get them to look into it. They contact at night via email. Refuse to look into it and tell me it's pretty much my fault or my banks fault. One more reason to only support American Companies

DHL DELIVERY
August 26, 2023

Order from SheIn last week and the extra $12.99 for delivery by today, the tracking number says it's at the facility in my city but the agents tell me it's still in transit to be patient... So why pay for quick delivery and it doesn't happen then you should refund me the shipping cost.

I have used this company and have spent hundreds of dollars on a weekly basic,and then one of my orders got lost in transits and i order it on August 4,2023 was suppose to arrive between 8/12 to 8/16
All I have been doing is asking for a credit to the wallet so i can spend it with them.
And they keep telling me to wait and track the delivery service.
Then don't want to refund my money for there lost of merchandise.
Not a good company on REFUNDS

First time!
August 25, 2023

Shipping packaging handling great. Buuuut….Omg the chemical odor from the shoes and some of their products was so intense that my whole room got filled with that order and stunk for hours. Now I'm not an expert but no one needs to tell me that that odor doesn't cause cancer or some other conditions. The shoes I bought were for my kids. First time and last time getting anything on Shein. I learned my lesson

Stealing my points
August 23, 2023

So, Shein is definitely getting over on their customers. When you click in everyday to gain points well I got up to like $6 of points. Everyday somehow my points are disappearing. I'm supposed to be accumulating the points but it seems as if they are taking them.

August 23, 2023

I had 38 items in my WISHLIST not my CART and SHEIN GO AHEAD AND ACUSE ME OF BUYING THEM AND NOT PAYING. Sure they have really nice items but i will not be tolerate this. They have sent me repeated messages acusing me of buying and not paying. I even sent them a screen shot to prove it and circled my EMPTY cart. I will no longer shop on SHEIN or at SHEIN.
