Bad company
January 19, 2023

I placed m order on 11/29 and have yet to receive my order. They were fast in taking my money and keep giving me the run around. They have changed the delivery date 3 times already and keep telling me to wait another 48 hours. My order is still sitting in the warehouse somewhere. They refuse to give me a refund but they must not know me. I already reported them to BBB and local new channel. I also cancelled my card for any further deduction from afterpay. I am in the process of getting a lawyer

Beware!
February 14, 2023

Beware of downloading the Temu app! To make you a new customer, they send you a picture with $100 gift coupons as a trap to make an account with them, without mentioning the requirements of spending money over $100 or $150 in order to receive the "GIFT". Keep in mind the same products are on Aliexpress for cheaper price/free shipping as well. They have a camera icon as well as google to upload a picture of the product and search all places. Good luck!

Worst
August 17, 2023

This is the worst system ever. I order many things online and this is incredibly bad. The tracking is vague, never says where items are only things like packaging, cleared customs, it never updates you as to where items are or specifically when it will arrive. Never ordering from them again.

Do not trust the photos that are shown with the dolls. The company ships from China, and although the doll is okay for a child, it is not for a collector. The shipping is slow. The doll is mostly vinyl, and can not be posed as shown.

I found Temu's website through one of their Facebook/Meta Ads. They posted a photo of a lovely pair of earrings which caught my eye. When I clicked on it, I saw they were selling the earrings for $1.88 which did not make sense to me. I Google searched the image and found the original pair of earrings on Etsy for $28. I messaged the owner/artist who confirmed she did not give Temu permission to use her designs. This is a shameful practice that must be stopped at once. I bought the earrings from her instead.

Temu for crafts and household, small toys
March 5, 2023

We have over 20 orders on Temu. We loved almost our items. 98 percent satisfaction. I wouldn't rank it high on clothing, but for household, and crafts, and adorable building block toys, Temu is unmatched. I encloses a pic of a few items from our recent orders, charging cords, cat tissue box, stainless steel thermos and tank building block set

I gave Temu 2 stars because the bird feeder I purchased is decent. I didn't give them more because the wreaths I got were an absolute waste of money. Not even worth the trouble it would be to return them. Doubtful I'll be purchasing from them again based on the wreaths.

Good experiences so far
September 5, 2023

I've ordered twice from Temu. The first order was small and the second larger. My first order was more of a test and I was very pleased with the 3 items I received and extremely pleased with the price. My second order was 39 items and I was very pleased with all but 3 of them.
I understand if people are upset with the customer service, return difficulties or quality of product and give Temu bad reviews. However when people complain about the packaging or lack of I don't feel that's valid. From the items I've received it is clear that cost can be kept lower for consumers by not providing additional, unnecessary packaging and by not shipping in a box. Keep in mind this is not Amazon, it is Temu who provides free overseas shipping for orders over $10.
We as consumers have a responsibility to be 'smart consumers'. Read reviews, check dimensions and understand how economics and business works. We need to educate ourselves.

I've been using Temu to order various styles of hats which I hand paint for resale. Unfortunately, with each order at least 50 to 75% of my order contains crushed hats which are NOT usable, and the damaged goods must be returned for credit. More care MUST be taken while packing orders in order to prevent damaging goods. It appears that Quality Care is lacking during packing.

After I made the purchase, site promised items will arrive before Christmas otherwise I will get $5 credit within 48 hours. Now it is almost New Year, so I talked with customer service and was told my payment is unusual and the order is canceled! I always shopping online with this card and never had an issue! They canceled my order without notifying me! It is terrible!

Hello Cindy, thank you for your feedback! We are sorry for the inconvenience caused by your canceled order. We are pleased to inform you that we investigated your issue further and have already lifted the temporary restriction on your account. You can now complete your order and start saving on Temu! To protect your account safety, our system had temporarily frozen the account, because it detected unusual purchase or payment activities. That’s the reason why your order had been canceled and refunded. Thank you so much for your patience. Customer satisfaction is our number one priority and we are constantly working to improve our service quality. If you wouldn't mind sending your order ID and a screenshot of your review details to me at candy.wong@temu.com, I would be happy to look into this for you right away. Best wishes, Candy
