Not sure why so many haters - Anyone wish to comment why this is a bad deal ? Genuine question.

Temu are a suspicious company. They show regularly that they make a loss on most products.
The app is made by the same people involved in credit card scam in the past and numerous people have reported that foreign payments have been taken after using Temu.
This is why so many people are voting cold

I work in schools on a project to reduce knife crime. TEMU sells bladed weapons to anyone, no age checks no nothing. I wrote to them and suggested they stop. They didn't reply.
Not a bad deal just a bad retailer

Same as Amazon until recently

Temu is even more awful than Amazon

Personally I think this company is a scam. Some of the items you receive may resemble what was being advertised but a lot of the time they're not. They have fake reviews which are so blatantly obvious. For example, the ad will be for a plan black pair of trousers. However, in the reviews, you see people holding up trousers which have all sorts of things mixed into the material - thus looking nothing like the ad. The customers are holding up the trousers saying how happy they are with the purchase. When you get to the middle of reviews, you will see all the complaints about the item being totally different.

Gotta love TEMU. I’ve ordered loads of stuff from adhesive pads to dodgy Lego. Never an issue. Refunds immediately if you’re not happy. Always look forward to me bag of shizzle from TEMU.

I have done about 7 Temu orders and all have been perfect, exactly as described, great delivery updates, never had any money taken or fell victim to any other bank issues. Makes you wonder if those voting down have ever actually used them.

Temu is fine, I ordered something at the wrong size by mistake and they refunded me right away and told me to keep the product.
Data harvesting, I laugh at this. All the details they keep are exactly the same as with any other online retailer. You can pay with PayPal so no card scam there either. It's just that they've done lots of damage to older businesses/retailers and they're trying to fight back by spreading false rumours.

I've personally ordered lot of different items from temu from jackets to household and electrical items and not a single item has turned any different than I bought it. Its been a great experience so far and will keep using it.

Soon after my very first purchase, I started getting spam text messages. Doesn’t take a genius to figure out what happened.
