Update: they fixed the issue.
I did not receive part of my order but I did receive a random item I did not order. I returned several items in addition to the item I didn't order. They would not give me a refund for the missing item even though I sent back the trash item that was in my package.

They want you to market, and invite people for them with the promise of 5 free items that you will not receive! The app stated for every new person there will be a $5 price cut but then only gave me a $1 price cut. They still want me to continue inviting people, and I'm not going to because at this point the next person will probably only give me a $0.50 price cut. I told everyone that the app is a LIE. They also word things like spend $20 for a "$100 coupon" and come to find out there's no $100 coupon. Just more discounts like spend $50 for $10 off. Like why continue lying and building a false narrative. That's NOT what keeps customers.

Not worth it
November 7, 2023

Orders are late they say they give you a $5.00 credit if it is late but you have a $10.00 min. Charge so that $5.00 is worthless so no matter what they are not giving you anything.

Hello, thank you for your valuable feedback. To support our commitment to sustainability, we encourage customers to meet a minimum order value so that we can more efficiently utilize the available packing space from bags, to our shipping boxes, and containers. By fully allocating the available packing spaces, we reduce the number of boxes used and number of trips made for our deliveries, which helps to reduce carbon emissions to the environment. However, we understand your concern about the policy and will share your feedback to our team for further review. Thank you for helping us understand and serve our customers better. Best wishes, Temu team

Scam!
November 7, 2023

Temu frequently don't send you small products, then charge you extra to repurchase them. They are operating a scam and there is no means to actually talk to a person in customer service about your complaint, just A.I. And automated responses.

October 9, 2023

I've not 1 problem with this company, I've been ordering from them for 6 months and got everything I ordered. Nothing broken all still in packaging. They might be a little late on shipment but that's not their problem and they do give 5.00 back for late shipping. Over all I give them a 10 out of 10.

Temu has a good customer service, unfortunately the temu company has terrible rules in changing address or order cancellation. But they found a way to rfund 100% of my products that was sent to a wrong address "still waiting for refund but received an email they will refund everything. Temu products are fair enough for their price. - i hope they keep improving and the customer service will continue to be superb at their jobs

Excellent Website for retail purchases
October 8, 2023

I have excellent connections with TEMU through purchases and customers service agents. Amazing. I am very happy with their overall quality. They refunded my products due to delay in delivery. Only problem with them engaging UNIUNI carriers. UNIUNI is hopeless in their delivering. But I will keep buying from TEMU for ever. They are not only genuine but they have excellent customer service. They not only refund your money in delay or lost parcels, but in case you receive the package, they let you keep it. Amazing. Himansu Padhy *******670

I've now processed over 2 dozen orders with Temu. Nearly everything was as good or better than brand name, clothes, kitchen ware, household, toys. After 50+ different items I've only returned 3. Two returned were too big, my fault, 1 was not as described. So simple, place in box, print return voucher & drop off at my choice place. Return to my bank was quick. I received 1 item broken & they sent another no charge within a week. Package wrapping looks terrible but it ships. I love Temu!

I ordered some clothes on several different orders. Temu had me pick the items, put it all under one label that the post office could not print out. I had to find a printer. I sent back 7 items. They partially refunded me for only 2 blouses $45.41. BUT they charged me $23.61 to return the TWO items although I returned SEVEN. So my return of $23.61 is suppose to be proccessed. WHAT A SCAM! DONT BUY FROM HERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO THROW AWAY MONEY! Then customer service wanted me to jump through hoops to even receive that refund. Basically asking me to email, mail through mail, etc. the order information, which they have because they sent me the label. HUGE SCAM!

Very cheap clothing quality, order instead from Noracora or Zulucky.much better quality and 15-20 per item vs like 5-7 with Temu. Took about 3 weeks to receive, nice customer service but very poor cheap cloth and quality, will donate to Goodwill likely. Also, ordered size L and it was 8-10 and was more like 12-14.so would have ordered M instead.

I ordered from Temu a lot before because the stuff was at a good price and the shipping was good. All of a sudden some piggy ship got involved and all 7 packages they have I have yet to receive. I've contacted them and have yet to email me back let alone update the system. After I get all my $5 late fee credits I'm deleting this app.

Items missing in the package and had escalated to PayPal. Later returned another item but refund yet to receive. Customer service communication is circular and not to the point. The returned item has nothing to do with PayPal escalation. Will never again buy on Temu. I m paying interest to my visa while refund is being delayed since last two weeks.
