I bought a bunch of items because they were practically free. Items came and no problem. Next time I order and buy, stuff came all wrong. You gotta be some kind of special to have a racket that sends stuff right on first orders and then send garbage afterwards. You make millions before the public figures it all out. Pics below show what I ordered and what I got. Straight garbage. F these guys. Don't bother ordering because it is quite the scam.

The most terrible company, in every way. Products of execrable quality, extraordinarily bad shipping, but the worst experience is that of the return. After walking from one side to another to drop off the package (the instructions on the website have nothing to do with reality), you wait a month to receive a refund that was not even issued. I have been to the bank several times so far, only to be told that the ARN code sent by them to verify my transaction is invalid. There is no other solution/proof that the money left them. But the bank claims that no refund request was issued from them...

So, keep in mind that you will never receive the money for the products you send as a return, from this terribly bad Chinese company!

I used to love temu, i deleted the app recently. Somehow in my pocket i placed a large order that i have no idea how it made it into my cart, and also checked itself out. Within 5 mins i tried to cancel the order, but the site said the items had already shipped.

I purchased a laser rangefinder from TEMU but did not open it until golf season arrived (after their 90-day return policy). The product looked nothing like the one I ordered, and it doesn't work - it won't power up.

Shopping through TEMU is like spinning a Roulette wheel. I have made about 10 purchases in the last 6 months. One purchase arrived a month late, another item I bought did not arrived and when I checked, it showed it had not shipped so I contacted the seller and was told the item was no longer available. Three times I purchased items only to find out shipping would be delayed by several weeks. Today I received a package that was to contain 35 panels of decorative garden fence however it only contained 10 panels. The seller showed item was no longer available so I have to repackage and bring item to delivery company to return then wait for refund while once again shopping around for item. Of purchases that have arrived on time and as advertised quality has been mixed. I'm done with TEMU and would not recommend.

Tip for consumers:
TEMU wants pictures of the item you are wanting to return and tries to get you to take a store credit instead of a refund to your payment source.

Products used:
Mostly gardening items and shirts.

I bought 3 pair of sandals to try the quality and I must say it's garbage, you can't put them on twice because the upper synthetic material is so thin, it's almost see thru and they don't weight nothing, materials are so light you could be surpised it's not invisible.
I also bought a casual dress and it didn't fit me, the material was so bad quality!
The thing I'd like someone to explain to me is just where these amazing reviews on their page come from, should be like Shein that you give a bad review and it doesn't appear on their site.
50 dollars gone to the garbage...Lesson learned.

Only good thing was I didn't have to pay shipping because I'd die if I had to do it

Update: for you to return a product, you need to pay for them, so, sending an item from the Dominican Republic to China would be ilogic; they give you a refund option but it was only for 1/4 of the order and they don't show bad reviews on their products, be aware!

This was the worst customer service ever. I was never told it would cost me 7.99 to return an item. If I had of known that then I would of kept the item. I didn't want to use my credit on shipping it back to your company. I am very disappointed in this experience and will not recommend your company to anyone. I should have received my credit back due to not being notified of your plans. Worst experience. Then when I asked to talk to a manager I was told I couldn't. Not acceptable.

Not happy and wouldn't recommend them to anyone

I purchased a pair of shoes at $12.65 and received a wrong size (too large to wear) in Jun. 2024. I requested a "free return" and I received a $4.66 refund in July, 12th. I contacted the help center, and the real person agent told me that the $7.99 deductible is for the shipping fees. I argued that shipping fees should be showed before the return starts, not after. As a result, the help center didn't issue the refund of shipping fees.

I recommend you not to purchase from this APP if your time is more valuable than the cheap price. TEMU is designed for those housewives, retired people who have no work, no income. I am a working class. After purchasing and returning a hundred of items on this website, I decided to quit.

This APP is not reliable. They do not have credibility to trust with. Sneakily charging customers the shipping fees is not the American way in doing E-Commerce. Temu should be banned. I would continue to file complaints with BBB and other government regulatory agencies.

Tip for consumers:
Be aware if you have time to kill, you can try Temu for returning their products. I returned 75% of what I purchased. It was very stressful because I am a full time employee and full time student. The price saved is not worth the time I spent on shopping and returning.

A bit of an unreal situation. 1 week of chats with customer service to warn them that the delivery couldn t reach me in time because I was moving abroad for good. So they decided to wait for the delivery to go forward anyways and process the refund once back in their warehouse...and you know what happened? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 the package was apparently delivered to a Ghost so they don t process a refund now. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
At least I did not have to pay the ticket for this show which is making my days! 🤣🤣🤣.

Temu refuses to provide refund for defective products!

I ordered a number of items, one of which was defective. I took photos of the defective item that cost $2, fully expecting an immediate acceptance of my refund request. No. After two hours of chat time Temu still refused to issue a refund without me returning the product, which would have required me to walk an hour away to a shipper. Again, for a $2 defective product. Please shop at AliExpress. They are reliable, trustworthy and professional.

Tip for consumers:
I spent hours trying to secure a refund but was refused by Temu. I immediately deleted the app and will never consider using Temu again.

Products used:
The product I ordered was defective, and was an apple core cutter.

Living in Montreal, I bought an outside bicycle storage tent in February. It was not until Spring when I was able to open to attempt to use product. Which puts me out of the 90 day return window.

I unfortunately discovered it is defective, as it is missing three places for the poles to fit that are meant to support it. Particularly what I paid even if were not defective would have been disappointing. When I went to leave a review for the purchase, the Temu.com site would not permit me to upload a photo.

With much editing, I was able to upload a photo here. Second picture uploaded here is the picture from the Temu.com site for comparison. Buyer beware...

Tip for consumers:
A very disappointing first and perhaps last purchase with Temu.com. Very involved and time consuming process to leave a review. Undoubtedly to discourage people sharing experiences as this....

Products used:
Did use. Product defective. I could not refund as more than 90 days had passed between purchase and opening package to discover product is defective.

Discovering this site was for me - perhaps belated - but definitely a piece of good luck. It is similar to AliExpress, as regards prices, but has the following advantages, which I can think of offhand: it offers free shipping (for the time being), carries an extremely wide selection of true-to-size, plus size clothing (not easy to find everywhere); shipping and delivery is incredibly fast; returns and refunds are no problem whatsoever. As prices at online stores seem to be rising by the hour, it is good to have an alternative for bargain buys.

All of them.

All products come in damaged packages. The products are cheaply made. They're no different than Wish. One thing I will give them, is most of the time it's free shipping. They cater to mostly new customers.

Tip for consumers:
It states the package came from California. Don’t understand why it looks like it came from overseas.

Products used:
Dispose of most products, due to cheaply made. Kept the air pods and iPhone chargers. Haven’t tested them yet.

-Definitely poorly made... CHEAP materials used. Hammock- cotton yarn is hardly more than thread. You can see through. Size is not as described (29"×72").
-Light- on/off switch sticks; does not work properly.
-The beads are cheap enough I won't judge. My granddaughters will like them.

It is very disappointing of receiving damages items and missing pieces from the package. I have contacted with the customer service but they say that they cannot offer any refund. It's really impressive to buy bad products.

Placed a order paid over 100 dollars for items never received. Messed my Christmas up. Now I am going to request a refund and see how it works out. Very disappointed. I heard good things about the App.

Hello Latonya, thank you for shopping with us and we are sorry you are experiencing difficulties with your recent orders. Temu is an online marketplace that offers quality merchandise from the world's top suppliers and brands to consumers at affordable prices. We work with UPS and USPS to ensure that your order is delivered timely and efficiently. Most packages arrive between 7-15 business days. However, we are currently experiencing shipping delays due to the high volume of orders during the holiday season. You can track your shipping status and see your expected delivery date directly in the Temu app or on Temu.com. If the tracking status is not updated for 15 days, you can request a full refund and keep your items when they arrive. If your order arrives later than the estimated delivery date, you will receive a $5 credit (for standard shipping) or $13 credit (for express shipping) as a sign of appreciation for your patience. Finally, if your items do not arrive, arrive damaged, or do not match the description or photos, you will be offered a full refund under Temu's Purchase Protection program (https://www.temu.com/temu-purchase-protection.html). Customer satisfaction is the most important to us and we are constantly working to improve our service quality.

I order often. Shipping takes some time but worth it. I use it for business and personal reasons. If something is out of stock they refund your money and give you an additional credit. Plus frequent shopping credits. Their $18 shoes are better quality and more comfortable than my $100 name brands. Forever a customer and I always check them first when I want something.

Tip for consumers:
Not a scam or deceitful like Wish. Trustworthy.

Temu is a great website. You can find some of everything, like women's tops, sneakers, jewelry, household items, silicone molds. They have some nice quality items. This is better than Wish, they keep you updated on your order. They actually credit you $5 if they pass their estimated time to ship and if your delivery is past the date they estimated delivery. This company has no problem in refunding your money if that ever happens. Everything I brought was just as described. Don't get me wrong there are some items that looks cheap but are worth the money to try them out. I recommend this site, I love Temu, It's hard not to buy at least 10 items an order. It can be addictive.

Tip for consumers:
I plan on buying some women tops I saw about 10 I want to buy. They're about $9 and probably a couple pairs of sneakers. It really is hard to stay off that site.

Products used:
Jewelry, belts, cleaning tools, make-up and silicone mold.
