TEMU SHOPPING APP

Pezzie — Mon, 09 Jan 2023 00:25:22 GMT

I have not heard of this app, until I came across this article.

I have no interest in it, but thought other posters might want to know. A heads up,of sorts.

@Pezzie Thank you. I have wondered about this site.

Just the word Chinese would keep me away.

Sounds like a good place to avoid.

Customer reviews on TrustPilot are very polarized. Makes me wonder if it's a safe place to shop.

One of my friends uses it. She loves it. She didn't mention any problems. It didn't interest me. I have more than enough places to shop.

I saw the TEMU app but another app previously scammed me. My trust had been shattered. The offer on my "scam app" was too good to be true.... neon suitcases at extremely low prices. Never came and I was send a tracking number saying it was delivered. So when I saw TEMU out of concern, I just delete it.

I did manage to get my money back from my credit card company almost immediately, but not willing to go through THAT again.

@Pezzie

Thanks for the info. I've been tempted to order a couple times- glad I didn't.

@Pezzie Thanks for the info! I clicked on one of the Temu ads a few weeks ago, and now the ads are dogging me everywhere. So tiresome!

I just watched a YouTube video of a guy reviewing 10 or so items he ordered from there. It ended up he said two were duds and the rest were a good deal. The comments section was pretty positive about Temu. Most people said they have good customer service, the orders arrive when they're supposed to, and you get a $5 credit if delivery is late.

I'm leery of giving my personal information to a Chinese owned company. I can't believe that others are so willing to go ahead and do so.

If you use amazon, ebay, Zulily, Wal-Mart and other websites with third party sellers, then chances are they are Chinese companies. I haven't had any issues with my CC information.

@JaneMarple @I don't directly order from any Chinese company. I order Shipped and Sold by Amazon. Only Amazon has my credit information. Same with Wal- Mart. If I ever buy anything on these two sites that might come in from somewhere else, I would order through Amazon or Walmart. When I've orderd on Zulily, I only shared my card and name with Zulily. I have ordered a mask from a lady on Etsy in the beginning of the pandemic. I order from Ulla Popken in Germany.

When I am logged into HSN playing games this is one of the ads that recently has been showing up, noticed the extremely low prices on some of the items they show.

@Pezzie thanks for the information. Armed with that knowledge, I'd NEVER shop there.
