The overall reputation of the company reflects significant customer dissatisfaction, primarily due to pervasive issues with order fulfillment, delayed deliveries, and inadequate customer service. Many customers report difficulties in receiving refunds and resolving disputes, often feeling ignored or misled by the company's support channels. Positive aspects, such as product variety and competitive pricing, are overshadowed by complaints regarding fraudulent sellers and the lack of buyer protection. This trend indicates a pressing need for the company to enhance its customer service protocols and ensure accountability among its sellers to rebuild trust with consumers.

Was looking for the bluetooth speakers having glowing lights but never found one. One of my friend suggested me this site and luckily on the very first visit i found it here and price was reasonable. The reason for giving 4 star is that my shipment reached 1 day late but overall it was good using AliExpress
Aliexpress partner with scammers, Aliexpress takes money from your account and dont pay sellers until you get it. But when it comes to you finding out the seller is a scammer, You cant cancel until the sellers agree!. Aliexpress wont give you your money back no matter how many times you have chatted to customer service, They wont help instead they feed you lies that they will take it up to management and you will receive an email from them soon. All lies.
I have been waiting for 15 days for this scammer seller to cancel my order. They keep reading my messages but no reply. Even though aliexpress has my money, They wont give me back until scammer sends me the fake phone... Awful Service.
Spent 60 quid there on shoes that are a British size 4 they sent me US size 6.5 now I'm responsible to pay the return God knows how much I'm disgusted the buyer protection is a big fat zero if truth be told
I bought a silicon doll from them. Instead of the face/head that was in the picture on the listing site I received a generic and not so attractive head. Their site says we would 100% guarantee get the same head that is in the picture.
It's been over a month now and I still haven't received the correct head. They keep stalling and giving me excuses that it is still in production, etc.
Their site also says that you're protected and that they don't collect your funds until you receive your item and you enter an approved or satisfied comment. They lie about that. The money was drawn from my credit card the day I ordered it. Very angry about this. Such a trivial reason to irritate the customer.
Edit
I have ordered several times from AliExpress and it's products and services are so bad that I have decided no more buys with this bad company. My purchase items came to me as damaged, missing part, defective, used item and broken sent to me as new, late late arrival, etc. the time has come no more no more AliExpress. The last encounter was defective item was refused to refund. See the picture as attached here. I buy no more from AliExpress and that is my recommendation. Btw. The AliExpress seller is Smart 3C Storage store, I have warn them that I will tell this seller to the world.
If the item sent matches the item advertised there are few problems. Around 20% of the time the seller is dishonest in some respect and after your money, products are very low quality or do not match description - AliExpress does little to help customer.
Example: item purchased was not fit for purpose, provided photographic evidence and evidence of other purchasers stating the identical issue. The seller was dishonest and provided non genuine assistance, I opened a dispute to resolve & aliexpress provided assistance to the seller, resulting in full payment for a useless product being authorized and no action available to me. Dishonest seller and very little support
While the prices are a bargin make sure you are going to keep the item,trying to return/refund is impossible it's like they make it so inconvenient they want you to give up,also descriptions are not always accurate, they will advertise 2 bicycle tires send you one but picture shows 2 and says tires,they said they show 2 tire to show they have 2 sizes,BS! Just recently I tried to give them another chance I ordered a tube guitar bass overdrive, while it sounds fantastic on guitar on bass the bottom end is completely sucked out, advertised as guitar bass overdrive but useless on bass,sent a message but so far no reply I think I'll stick to Amazon,Ebay and other U.S.based supplier's.
I was scammed out of $400 - I ordered a piece of professional sound equipment and was shipped a tiny plastic astronaut in bubble wrap. I reached out to the seller with no reply - then to AliExpress - after their process they said I was due a refund but then "froze" the order so I can no longer access any correspondence (Thankfully I took screenshots of everything before it disappeared. I am now hoping PayPal can refund my money but it has been over a month now.
Horrible communication and rife with scammers!
Ordered a bathing suit 3 months ago, it said the order was complete and delivered but it never showed up and no refund was given. Do NOT use this site! It's a scam. The things I could say! Not happy at all!
There are problems with refund. I had 3 orders for which seller didn't sent product at all. After 100 days no refund at all. Support is lying that it is sent but my bank don't have any details. After few emails aliexpress start to ignore my emails. Also on all orders there is guaranteed money back after x days. In few orders that day passed and they refused to refund. A lot more for compliant and it ts really bad experience.
Do not know why I purchased goods from here, they are a fraud. Thank God I only spent 3 dollars but what a waste of money! Never ever buying from here again. Don't get tempted, you wont receive your goods from them.
I bought the fake Lenovo phone here, although the seller was guaranteeing the originality of the phone. After my several asks to consider that buy I still got no reply. Wish there would be an option to grade them with 0 stars.
I had a very bad experience on a mobile from Black view company because the send me a default mobile, even the small refund that AliExpress gave me are still haven't receive it after 3 weeks. So be very care full pls.
First time to shop on Aliexpress, spent $56 and being sent a defective product, after hours and days to provide videos, proofs etc and then being instructed to pay more than the item cost $87 to ship it back and wait for months for a refund, but the seller refused to refund the shipping fee, after more houes and days chatting AliExpress issued me $87 coupon with great redemption restrictions. Finally they are successful to force me spending more to buy some useless stuff on their site, what a greedy company! Be caution on this site.
In the beginning, fine contact with the seller.
Everything painted to my liking.
Then it remained QUIET.
Several times tried to get contact
But no reaction at all.
Therefore, very dissatisfied with this seller
I bought few Shirts and jackets and they are all of bad quality and not as seen in the picture plus the sizes are complete fraud made just to rip you of all wrong sizes. I use Large and ordered XL for all, but they are like size small to me... Don't know why they do this...
And one seller was so rude and annoying in responses and I had the dispute open for 10 days or more with no help or place to report this bad attitude (stealing basically) from AliExpress... I will never use this rip of service at all and especially for clothing... It's a scam service.
At the end of those bad experiences I am left with useless clothes which I am ashamed of giving them to others even
Bought a wig for $167 in March, wig was different from what i ordered and could not be worn. I was told to send back and i would be refunded, cost me $42 to send back, now i am told package was not received even though post office said it was delivered so does the tracking. Despite numerous complaints left on Ali express nothing has been done to assist me in getting a replacement or my money back. I would not recommend this site to anyone.
Never got my order and will not get any refund. SCAM Postal service said they try to delivery. I have video recorded doorbell and no one ever try to deliver. No possible way to contact the shipping company they use
Never received items. I opened a dispute and keep getting told to wait 10 days. It's been over 3 months. They still refuse to do anything about it. The items come from China, shipping takes several weeks. The site says they'll step in to solve the dispute, but they don't; just keep saying wait 10 days. Then when the 10 days are up, they say wait 10 more days. They just keep doing that. Very fraudulent site. Do not buy from them.
I have many different products from AliExpress over the years but don't expect any service if there is a problem with an order. I have had two problems and will never deal with them again. The first was for an item that never arrived and when I let AliExpress know about the problem, they sent me a copy of the delivery document which did not even have my name on it and no signature. Their comment, "We have looked into the evidence and the case is closed". The second was a faulty pair of gloves, I was asked to send photographs and a video and even asked if I could fix the problem myself. It was finally agreed that I return the gloves and the seller agreed to refund the $33.75. I returned the gloves and did receive the purchase price but the seller nor AliExpress will refund the $33.75. All I received from AliExpress was, "The case is closed and don't reply to this email".
Answer: You are taking a very big chance by ordering anything from them... you will never get your money back and chances are you won't even receive the item you want. BUYER BEWARE
Answer: In my opinion. NO. I had to jump through hoops and make reports and threaten to make reports, it didn't help. I got my order, but couldve gotten the same thing from ebay faster and easier.
Answer: I purchased 3 pair of van's brand shoes via different companies on aliexppress and all were true to size. The off brands are not, so you need larger than you wear. But, ask and ali will usually provide a size comparison chart for you to use.
Answer: No customer service. Some sellers are dishonest. No way to recoup your money for items never sent. Bogus tracking information since no custom number unavailable. Sellers asking for your your PayPal account to make a refund when they are suppose tp use Alipay. Clean up dishonest sellers like co-co fashion store. I have ordered tother items thru Aliexpress without a problem but you should get rid of the bad ones. I am reluctant to use Aliexpress again after this bad experience.
Answer: There is no customer service what so ever so be very careful when buying on AliExpress. Buyer protection is a load of BS and if problems arise with your order they will always side with the seller. I would suggest using a shop that someone that you know has already used to purchase hair.
Answer: Omigod, they're not just knockoffs, they're knockoffs that are produced in someone's ill-lit basement by captive chimpanzees that are blind, malnourished, and suffering closed head injuries. Seriously, you'd get better value from your money if you used it to wipe your bum. Don't buy from this group of criminals and ripoff artists!
Answer: I had this issue several times. The issue is that they only allow a certain number of characters ( Letters and numbers) in the description of the problem. So you will need shorten the number of words in the description and re-send until it goes through.
Answer: From my experience, there are as responsible sellers and is not responsible sellers. Second worse then have to raise a dispute. If this does not help, then raise a dispute above, and then as they say it all depends on You. As far as your arguments are strong. Almost always get a refund in the amount of shipping cost or part cost of the goods, if the goods were not received appropriate quality. Less full price. The full value is returned when the order didn't come at all. Also when you have paid but you did not send an order for a certain time. But again, it all depends on your arguments and facts provided by the seller or, to the Commission on the proceedings of the claims. But it is also necessary to take into account all the items from the seller, this is what guarantees he gives, product reviews buyers. And his overall rating. Never be lazy to write a review about the product from a particular seller, you will be the same customers as You. There is also an important factor, which I would say is pretty negative. It if the product was defective and not as described on the website. The seller has the punkt Returns accepted if product not as described, buyer pays return shipping; or keep the product & agree refund with seller.) 1. If the seller accepts returns, and the buyer also wants to return their purchase, simply follow the seller's sets of Returns on who will pay the return shipping fee. If the seller will pay the fee, communicate with them in advance about the payment method and the logistics service. 2. If a seller sets no return necessary or you want to keep the product, simply agree the refund amount directly and ignore the return shipping fee. It turns out that if you decide to return, it will often more expensive than the product itself and the meaning of no turning back, because when you return the money, only for the goods excluding the cost of shipping there and back. Therefore, I can not sell brand quality products, and will only return part of the money for the goods. That financial will have a negative impact but only You. Which means be careful, cock all the "pros" and "cons". You are not forced to buy it personally, Your decision. The more You provide facts that you have been deceived, the more chances and money You have spent, You will return. For all the time of purchase, the money is returned in full or in part. The Commission for the analysis of complex situations works, but is considering the case for a long time, so don't despair if You didn't reply, just "keep abreast" and you will not lose anything Sorry my bad English :)
Answer: Do not buy from aliexpress the quality is terrible and lots of sellers never send the items. Also they sell counterfeit designs too which is illegal to purchase.
