I paid for my order and got an email that I would be notified when it shipped. It has been 30 days now and still my order has not shipped. When I try the customer service links they do not work.

Defective tv box
November 3, 2020

The received device was defective. The customer service was quick but unsatisfactory because it only offered a partial refund instead of a functioning replacement or a full refund.

I ordered a phone in December and a tablet in January. They have never been delivered and their customer service always tries to find excuses but never resend nor reimburse them.

Prices are ok, sometimes very good. Delivery time could be a bit better but still OK. Service is top in reaction time and outstanding in obligingness. I can recommend Geelbuying.

I ordered an Egreat A5 media player for USD 140 and I received a Vorke Z1 which costs USD 70. I reported the issue and I was asked for a lot of information I provided. I sent a lot of e-mail for a week and after I decided to escalate the issue to Paypal. Today I received a mail from Geekbuying said they were unable to identify if the Vorke was sent out by them (there is their own barcode on the box by the way) and they cannot do anything. After a half an hour Paypal made a decision and I will got a refund. The problem is I had to pay USD 60 import charges and I have to pay about USD 35 to send the wrong item back. This USD 95 will not be paid back, because the decision was made by Paypal and Geekbuying's return policy will not cover my extra costs... I'm 100% sure I will never order anything from them, this was the first and last time in my life!

I had a problem with an android phone I purchased being an unlucky malfunction, when I contacted them bout the problem they gave me all the information about the shipping. After having sent the shipping and giving them the tracking there was a period of time where I didn't hear back from them which drove me to contact them, when they confirmed they had it. The repair was quick and the phone was sent off quickly however I didn't receive my tracking number until I myself sent an email. They have very good customer service that are quick to answer however (probably due to the bulk of orders) you will have to check up on your repair as they wouldn't reach out first.

NOW THAT I HAVE RECEIVED THE PHONE FROM REPAIR I HAVE NOTICED NOTHING WAS ACTUALLY FIXED AND THE PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED WITH MY FRONT CAMERA.IT SEEMS THEY HAVE NOT TRIED TO REPAIR MY PHONE. I WAS THE UNLUCKY BUYER THAT RECEIVED A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO FIX IT.

Hi dear sir
So sorry for keeping you wait so long.
Could you please tell us your order number? We'll try our best to help you solve it.
Sometimes, we cannot ship you order out in time as the item you ordered is too popular to meet the large demand.
We may need time to get it from our supplier, and it will take a little long time.
Anyway, have a nice day!

Ordered a small drone intended to be a Christmas gift for my dad, with an extra battery--this was on December 18. Was hoping to receive the item by Christmas, but anticipating a holiday rush I expected the delivery to most likely be closer to New Year. As a form of precaution I opted for the additional $20 3-5 day DHL delivery fee anyway.

On the 19th, however, I receive the following email from their customer service address: "Unfortunately, DHL shipping company couldn't ship the item with battery for safety reason.

Kindly let us know if you can accept the shipping by Free Registered Airmail (est. Shipping period can be up to 15-30 business days)?

Which no need to pay more fee."

I responded with "If I agree to shipping by free airmail I want a refund for the shipping fee I paid for. Otherwise I would like to cancel my order."

After that email I received no reply, so I tried their website chat feature. The agent on the other end verified that they will refund the DHL fee if I agree to regular shipping, but that would mean a 15-30 business day delivery schedule. At this point I decide it's not worth it, and ask for an order cancellation. After that last line, CRICKETS.

Why would you offer a DHL option if it isn't available? Why is your customer service so abysmal? Why the runaround with cancellation requests? This feels like a $#*!ing scam. I want my money back, and I want it stat.
