AliExpress Reviews Summary

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.

If I could give 0 stars I would
If I could give 0 stars I would.
I never received an item from 2 separate orders.
Also when dealing with customer service, it's more useful to find the nearest inanimate object for help to fix your problems.
When I did contact customer service they asked for my order number for each order I placed and I realized THEY ARE THE SAME.
Not sure how that's possible as they were placed at two weeks apart.

They denied my refund because they said my items weren't paid for. Then when I sent them my order number I already sent them 5 times they apologized and said they will request a refund.
All that did was reset my 48 hour refund time I was already waiting on from the previous chat.

They will not help whatsoever.

I asked to cancel all items and be refunded for everything and they said they can't because they're shipped (one order hasn't even been in transit)

By far the worst customer service and company I've ever dealt with in the 32 years I've been alive.

I'd suggest Temu over this, at least you'll EVENTUALLY get your items.

This is the biggest scam of a company I've seen.

If you're waiting on a refund, just go ahead and dispute them to your bank. You'll save some time unless you want some proof of how huge of a scam artist this company is. Lol

Sad they are literally stealing items from children as that's all I bought were toys for my son's bday and Christmas.

Do NOT use this company for anything. Any cent you spend is just giving them your money or letting them borrow it until you dispute it with your bank.

I bought an emszero body sculpt machine with RF handles and got it on a 1.1 sale for 57% percent off. With a coupon for an additonal 80 off. It was an amazing deal and seemed too good to be true. Well, it was definitely a scam and too good to be true. They processed the payment on my credit card. Then two days letter they sent me a message on whatsapp saying the payment I made was only a deposit and I needed to pay an additional $420.00. I told them there was no mistake made and I paid what was due via alliexpress. I told them I would report them and the scam they were pulling. Do not trust buying on this site, because the sellers are very shady and this happens often. I was so sad, as I really wanted that machine. I waited for years to get that sort of price, but feared it was too good to be true. They told me if I was unwilling to send the additional 420.00, then I needed to cancel the order. Not sure Alliexpress will do anything about it. I am not certain I will ever buy via alliexpress again either. This has really burned me. Beware! Many scam sellers are on this site and if you think the deal, even a sale is too good to be true, then it more than likely is.

I paid for expedited shipping but it still took forever to get here. When my shirt finally arrived, it wasn't the right color and didn't match the description at all. I tried reaching out to the seller but I didn't get much help.

I ordered 12 rechargeable batteries and a battery charger from Ali Express store "D-V-C-N-A-battery Store". I received only 6 batteries and the charger. The seller claimed the batteries were 9900 mAh, but they test at only 420 mAh. The charger has a U.K. Style wall plug and so is unsuitable for use in the U.S. I initaited communications with the seller, but they now refuse to communicate further.

I ordered a Sata Jet 5500 Digital spray gun from Aliexpress Shop*******303 and Order ID: ************** for approx. $400. What I received four weeks later was a small package with a plastic pin in it. This was a scam / fraud and I have reported it to Aliexpress but they do nothing, so much is the buyer protection worth. I will NEVER buy from Aliexpress again.

I was not provided with real costumer support when a package was lost and I asked for a refund.

Deliverer didn't receive it and still Aliexpress told me to wait the 35 days before refunding. When companies only care about money and not costumers despite of legit proof, there we have those dirty ethics that we all know and despise. Disgusting.

I placed 2 orders with AliExpress in October 2024. The first one arrived and was OK. The second order did not arrive but the USPS tracking stated "delivered in or at mailbox". The question is: Whose mailbox? The seller and AliExpress would not help out with this other than stating "sorry about that". The seller is responsible to work with the shipping company in the not-so-rare case where the postal service delivers to the wrong address. Fortunately, I successfully disputed the charge with the charge card company.

The site has started to follow new methods of fraud, and it also protects the fraudsters on the site. I have been scammed more than once, and I talk to customer service, but they do not pay any attention
I have strong evidence that I have fought with the site several times regarding such things, but it did not pay any attention to it. It is really a bad experience. When I spoke to customer service about one of the scammers on the site, and many consumers were also harmed by him, the site does not pay any attention to it, so it continues its work. It only wants profit. It does not care about the consumers' experience. Frankly, it is the worst site I have tried so far because it is really a scammer by all standards

I was put through constant hoops after "I" reported that there was an error in the tracking due to them not paying for the proper shipping amount. "i" sent them the tracking data and was told "you have to put in a refund request" so i did. I waited WEEKS and was stuck with "Please keep waiting". I realized, at close to a month, i was NEVER getting my money back.

And NO, it CANNOT be blamed on the seller. This ALL is to do with Aliexpress and THEIR rules, THEIR procedures, and THEIR lack of refunding.

So, when something goes wrong with Aliexpress, DON'T expect an easy refund if you get into a situation like mine where the shipping gets turned around. All you will get is a lot of "be paitient/wait" requests and NO MONEY BACK.

And their whole argument was for me to start a refund to "protect" my money. I know you can see the irony in this.

Order date: Aug 27,2024
Order ID: **************

Order date: Aug 27,2024
Order ID: **************

I tried, FOUR TIMES, to get my money back and they (eventually) deleted my refund request and acted like it was MY error because their link led to an internet 404 error (which means the page isn't there).

After two months, i'm tired of being respecful and patient.

BEWARE SCAM SELLER
October 17, 2024

BEWARE OF THIRD PARTY SELLER SCAM! On ALIEXPRESS

I ordered 3 dresses from a 5* seller (BRIDAL 2 STORE) and received the message below for ALL three orders:

"PLEASE DONT IGNORE THIS MESSAGE AS BELOW ( we will refund 15$ as gift when you get the dress.) Due to my mistake, the logistics tracking number became invalid. We will fill in the correct tracking number again and let you receive it within 1-2 weeks. However, you need to click on confirm receipt to prevent the order from being closed, if you dont confirm, the order will be automatically closed, please do that if you still need."

I responded
"I cannot confirm receipt until I have physically received the dresses. I guess you'll have to close the order and refund my money as I WILL NOT confirm receipt of something I don't have in my possession"

The seller sent another message
"yes i know, so now i need your help. Please confirm receipt it,i just want to print new shipping label and send out and let you get the dress within 2 weeks, if you dont want anymore, you can ask refund in dispute. Thanks for your help dear.

To protect myself I will have to request a refund which was processed by AliEx CSR.

I cant imagine a seller demanding that the customer a confirm receipt for an item NOT even yet shipped.

I tried placing a complaint on https://www.reddit.com/r/Aliexpress/ but it was immediately deleted by the moderator. That tells me they are aware of the problem

Aliexpress sold me a broken helmet and then instructed me to return the item then the seller or aliexpress would refund the return shipping fee. Months later they said I do not have enough evidence eventhough i sent the postage invoice numerous times. This is a cheap chinese scam site. Better to go with amazon who will treat customers better. $#*! you scammers!

Had the worst experience online yet ordering from this website. They took my money, but didn't send the item I ordered. They gave me someone else's tracking number to make it look like the item was underway, and then delivered, which never happened. When I contacted support about this they were useless, very incompetent, unprofessional people, their delivery guaranteed or refund policy is total bs, they didn't care at all about the problem and provided no solution. At the end I paid for something that was never sent, I sincerely warn anybody reading this not to order from this Chinese website, save yourself a headache, time, and your money. Just order elsewhere in America.
