I bought two sports bras and a top.
May 18, 2023

Top fitted perfectly true to size. XL I am 14-16. Bra one size 3XL a bit large would fit 40DD but comfort plus. Bra 2 white fastening at front, 4XL but smaller still comfortable. I usually take 18DD. Haven't tried socks as yet.

I have been on the Temu fan-wagon since Super Bowl 2023. Today I am officially making it my last time. I received notice of a delivery in my parcel mailbox which is the mailbox that the post office puts packages in, one per mailbox. Today, I noticed my bag was open but taped up over the excessive tape Temu uses. I will try to figure out how to post videos. The order first is nothing I ordered and second all the packages mostly have been stolen and only the empty boxes/bags were in the package. I am on hold to speak to a live person but thru chat ONLY. I was number 177. Now I'm 134. Hopefully they get to me within the next two hour considering I have been on hold for 30 minutes now. I do not know how this is going to get resolved considering it's my word against their word. Smh. So now I am to the part to upload video and a 30 sec video it's saying its too large. I should've known Temu was too good to be true.

No Problems
May 18, 2023

I have placed three orders so far. I received the first order of mixed household items and the second had more clothing. I am truly surprised. Everything was of good quality and arrived on time. I expected the clothing to be cheap but it was all good quality. I love everything. I bought a fry pan that had a tiny dent in it from the post office, not Temo. When I wrote the review they immediately messaged me to see if I wanted to return it or wanted a refund. I kept it because it was perfectly usable. I can't wait for my third order.

My order in April
May 18, 2023

My order in April of 2023 was perfect. I didn't have any shipping delays, they sent me all the tracking information. The pricing was accurate. However, the order of the CPR Mask/choking apparatus was flimsy. I sent it back and they were very prompt in refunding me the price. The two dresses that I order was PERFECT. Not a problem at all. My only suggestion when ordering online is take more time in finding the fabric for every dress, every shirt.

Company Is a Scam
June 15, 2023

Bought somethings, waited and waited, treys to contact Temu but they have no way to get ahold of a real person, no one responds to emails or "tickets" you submit, and then they finally send an email that the order was lost and they issued a credit to my temu account without asking me if I wanted my refund issued that way, that's not their right. They can't force you to do business with them after they didn't give you the items you ordered. And of course no way to reach anyone. Had to file fraud with my bank.

Really attractive prices and images of quality products. I actually thought it was fun going "bargain shopping" given the prices and free shipping. However, shipping took almost 3 weeks, which was expected as items are shipped from China. The quality of the items are really pathetic. Even worse than what you can find at places such as the "dollar stores." I remember going to underground markets in China and the Temu merchandise is similar to what you find in those knock-off night markets. I ordered drain snake (cheap flimsy plastic and doesn't work), round seat cushions (less than 1 inch thin.cheap and I will not use), a 4 prong blind cleaner and a few other items. I'm sure there is something that is both super cheap and truly useful or if good quality, but for me, not worth it.

No customer service
June 15, 2023

I have been trying with no success to reach someone, anyone, with Temu customer support. They show my order as delivered but it was never received. The order was shipped but there was an issue with the post office losing it or delivering to the wrong address. I followed all of their suggested recommendations of what to do if an order is not received and I'm trying to get a reshipment. On the Temu app I entered the required info for reshipment and whenever I hit submit it pops up with " please contact customer support. I've tried numerous times to contact them thru the live support and it's nothing but a frustrating waste of time. After being # 586 in line and waiting over an hour each time when I got to the 160's in line it says they have disconnected from the chat session and to recontact them if I still need help. Now when I try to contact them thru their live chat option it says there's no connection and try again later. I've tried calling every customer service number they have listed. They're ALL disconnected. Take a look through the responses from Temu to other reviews on this site. Every phone number they have listed is disconnected. Sent emails with no reply or acknowledgement from them.There's no way to contact anyone.

So I decided to order two more for the gym and they told me I'm allowed just to buy one. I was in shock if you want to make profits you want to sell the more you can.

Horrible shipping

I placed an order for the 1st time with temu. Order was received quickly without issues. My second order placed at the beginning of May has yet to be delivered. Agents of temu are useless as all they do is blame the postal service. I would highly recommend that temu be avoided cheap products are not worth the frustration and time wasted when orders are not delivered as expected. One last thing, five dollar credit for my shipment being late. I find this insulting
