I ordered Christmas gifts from shein at the starting of Nov. And my order said it'd be here the 5th of dec and here we are a few day before Christmas still nothing and they did this before also. They tell u it'll be here and then tell u that u can't return it this place is terrible.
If I could put 0 stars I would. Horrible customer service that does not value their customers. They sent me a damaged item and when I reached out to customer service they told me I needed to return it to them so they can make verifications and then they'll be able to refund me. Mind you the item is a 1$ cheap flower. I have never had any issues returning things that didn't fit me or I just didn't like but cmon all that for a 1$ item (that they sent to me damaged which is their fault!) thats cheap. It isn't even about the money it is about the principle you send a damaged item you fix the issue. Especially now that Canada Post is on strike they dont even take any packages and im not going to wait I dont know how long for a 1$ refund which I told them and they didn't seem to care they said the only way that I can get refund is if I send the item back. Even if I do send it back to them, then what? They'll probably throw it away so why make things more complicated.I would 100% understand if it was a pricey item and once again I never had any problems returning the items back if they didn't fit but this is ridiculous. I have ordered with them for years and the way they treat customers is disgusting and unacceptable. They don't even care about making their customers happy or finding a good solution. The customer service agent kept giving me answers that weren't even about my request and it felt like I was talking to a robot without any compassion. Anyways it is the last time I order from a cheap and disgusting company that doesn't value and treat their customers right.

I ordered 20+ dresses to ensure that 1 fit great and was the correct color for my daughter's destination wedding on Nov2 2024. They were delivered Oct 11,2024. Couldn't even choose one until I got to the destination on Oct 31. Was going to return what I didn't choose for wedding. When I got home I found my dad in a coma. Had to take him off life support on Nov 10th. The funeral was Nov 16. I had to pay 100% of it myself. I needed the $ from my dresses I was going to return. I tried to return them a few days after the funeral and have been denied everytime I tried due to it being outside the time frame of 30days from delivery. So I was Apx 2 weeks outside the time frame. I didn't even know I only had 30 days. I thought for sure I had at least 60 days. Returning dresses wasn't on my mind until the day I tried to return them. They refuse to make an exception. It's ridiculous and unexceptionable that they will refuse my return. I will provide proof of wedding and death certificate if I have to. I need shein to let me return these. I try every week since Nov and keep getting denied.

I have been a Shein customer for many years.
Recently I made some orders and sent some stuff back.
Shein now refuses to arrange for reimbursement despite existing proof of shipment, just as they refuse to submit an investigation.
It is not even discussed, the customer service leaves something to be desired.
It doesn't work that way and I will do everything possible to get my money back and remain persistent!
If I do not receive my refund promptly, I will go to the lawyer.
How much would you like to pull your customers over the ear please?! Customer service no help! You have enough evidence and yet the employees lie and say it's not in storage?!
Please Shein shame on you!
Every time it says, as with other customers, it is not registered in stock! Why do you deal with your customers like that?! Do you really need to rip off customers?!
In addition, I would also like to point out the return policy on the website. Targeted to point 3
*We may withhold the refund until we have received the goods back or you have provided proof that you have sent back the goods, whichever occurs sooner. *
I have documented everything so that I can prove that I am entitled to the refund.

I ordered a pebble ice maker in silver and received a regular one in black. I contacted customer service and told them this and that they would need to pay for shipping as this was their fault, not mine. They said I would get my money back. I took the item to UPs and shipped it back on 8/29/24 to the address they indicated. It was delivered back to them and signed for on 8/31/24. I have inquired about both of my refunds and they are stating it hasn't been received and to check with the courier. I have proof and have given them the tracking number. What they are doing and allowing is not right! They are allowing a store to sell an item they are advertising under false pretenses. Other customers have bought this same item and the same thing happened to them. I think attorneys need to get involved at this point.

HORRIBLE customer service and liars. I ordered something and changed my mind within am hour or two. According to their website, orders can be canceled if they have not shipped. I had just placed the order and nothing had happened with it yet but they told me that they could not cancel the order. They told me several times and the responses seemed to be automatic replies that haven't even really read my message. I will never order from SHEIN again and I will be happy to share my experience with othersto save other people from experiencing the grief that I'm going through now.

Do not buy from SHEIN! I purchased multiple items(yukata dressing) from SHEIN and most of them were missing accessories such as fans and belts. I opened a case to let them know what were missing and uploaded requested pictures and videos. Instead of investigating into the matter, they shut the case and marked it as "resolved". This is a company which has no regards for its clients and it seriously lacks professionalism. I am not sure if I would ever receive missing items.

I have been a loyal Shein customer for years and have never encountered issues with payments or delivery—until recently. My last experience was nothing short of a disaster.
For months, I've had trouble with their delivery partner Uni Uni. To resolve this, I specifically requested that future orders be sent via Canada Post, as customer service had previously assured me they could accommodate this request. However, for my last two orders—placed at the same time with separate order numbers—I reached out to ensure this was done, only to discover that both were sent via Uni Uni.
When I contacted customer service about this, I was met with excuses. They blamed the warehouse, even though I had sent a clear request. Then, they casually stated, "We will punish Uni Uni"—an unprofessional and completely inappropriate response.
The problems didn't stop there. When I received my orders, I wanted to return a few items. That's when I discovered a $26 shipping fee on one of the orders. I was told this could be due to a glitch, but instead of resolving the issue, I was asked to provide proof that I didn't select express shipping. Seriously? As a long-time customer, I expect better than being treated like this.
Adding insult to injury, I was told that the coupon I applied made my order ineligible for free shipping—even though the pre-discount total was $129.62, well above the threshold. I didn't notice this at the time because I was focused on requesting Canada Post for delivery. Yet, customer service implied it was my fault for not catching the error.
The final straw was their dismissive attitude and unprofessional language during our chat. I've never experienced such poor treatment from Shein before. I wasn't asking for free service; I simply wanted fairness and acknowledgment of the issue.
I'm done with Shein. Once I receive my refund for the returned items, I'll be deleting my account and app. To anyone considering shopping here: BEWARE. Their customer service has taken a nosedive, and their attitude towards loyal customers is Appalling

After 4 years of buying off of SHEIN I've decided to fully Cut ties with the. Their products used to be very affordable and you can get a lot for a reasonable amount of money but now everything is just so much more expensive and their coupons do not work plus the shipping is very high considering all their stuff is made cheaply and poorly, and China. Their stuff has never been good quality, but over the years it's gone downhill and now it's just pure garbage, especially with all the harmful chemicals that are past the illegal right to put into products and all their stuff. It's very devastating and they've lost a really good customer I spent a lot of money in the past unfortunately Them and now I will no longer support them or give them money. I also got into their games which is supposed to help you win and earn some free gifts but they never give you the free gifts and they make you play over and over again, you get very close to receiving the gift and they don't even give it to you so frustrating you guys are shameful shameful fraud! Plus, I've become more of an elegant lady and elegant ladies do not buy from Sheen Fashion Nova and absolutely not from Temu. We buy from high end independent sellers that are based in New York Paris Italy and the UK. Not from companys like yours who have all the products manufactured, real dirt, cheap and places like China Who pay people over there pennies and sweatshops in child labour places and then charge a normal amount over here in the western countries with horrible toxic cheaply made products.
1st they make me waited for almost a week. Then yesterday one courier from Imile message me order will be delivered I call he said he is in Abu hail now again I receive call feom courier from I mile and he is in wrong location. Fyi! Courier sultan tailor is very rude he even shouted on me
Product from SHEIN is nice only that the problem is the courier. Imile service is very worst

Lack of Flexibility for Loyal Customers
I've been a loyal Shein customer for a long time. Recently, due to a health issue, I couldn't return an item on time (exceptional circumstances). Despite explaining my situation (and requesting a chance to exchange the items size at least.) my request was denied, and the escalation was never raised. My ticket was closed and marked 'COMPLETED'. I feel ignored and will never use this shop again.
I understand return policies, but exceptional cases should be handled with empathy. Disappointed with the lack of flexibility.

I have been purchasing Shein clothing and home textiles for approximately a year.
I found the clothing to be of decent quality, and true to the images and descriptions on the website. Home Textiles were usually cheaper materials and smaller than presented on the website.
My issue is that recently a purchase was made through a vendor who posted an item that was significantly lower price then other items of similar design. I purchased this item and it was given a tracking number that was fraudulent, as verified through my local post office. I notified Shein and customer service advised that I had to wait for the process. The vendor refunded the money, however to repurchase the item would been significantly more money.
In researching the vendor, I noted that all of the reviews on the now closed store had the same review,"item not received wrong tracking number". It seems this vendor sold items at lower prices, put in fraudulent tracking number, and refunded the money once the complaint was made. Why would a vendor do this? To collect payment information and addresses for fraud or worse, to sell my information.
When I brought this to customer service attention, they commented that "it's a pity" and that they could not do anything since the money had been refunded. I had contacted them twice before the money had been refunded and they told me to wait.
I had also provided them with screenshots of all of the complaints, and the closed store that I had purchased my item from. They had no response regarding this shady vendor, nor any remedy. Just, you've been refunded (which was part of the scam).
I feel that Shein is complicit in allowing their customers data to be compromised by their Marketplace vendors.
Shein countering accusations of fraud with pad answers from customer service is an insult to your customers. Advocating for your vendors who may be stealing from your customers in your name is not good business.
Well I appreciate it the value that Shein offered on its clothing and Home Textiles, I now have to monitor my credit card statements for fraud. I don't know if the trade off is worth it. I will not be doing business with this company going forward and I suggest others take this review into consideration before they do business with this company as well.

Shein is not reliable, do not order stuff from them. I have ordered 20 items, all needlework related. Have only received 8 items. Some of very poor quality. I've been robbed. And my original order just disappeared from the Shein app, is no where to be found so I can have proof of my order. Total rip off.

The pricing is fair, and they offer a good range of products, but their customer service is severely lacking. My order placed during Eid arrived with an open package and several items missing. Despite my repeated attempts to contact customer service, I received no satisfactory response until they finally agreed to issue a refund for the missing items and suggested I reorder the items.
This experience has left me questioning how reliable your service is.

I am extremely disappointed with my experience on Shein service. I requested a refund for my recent purchase, but despite multiple follow-ups, my issue remains unresolved. It's been from october 14 th, and I still haven't received any communication or refund. Shein's associate courier service IMILE confirmed that they delivered the return item on the same day. And shein is not accepting that they received the courier. This courier servise also Shein's associate.
The customer service team has been unhelpful, providing vague responses and not addressing my concern properly. I provided all required documentation and followed their process, but the lack of response is frustrating and unprofessional.

First time ordering. Everything was too big. Returned as instructed. Only refunded for one of 6 items. Theres no way to get to anyone about this. Its not worth it. 0 stars. I would not bother ever again. Absurd.

Utterly frustrating to deal with. Worst customer service and uneducated "fraud team". My order was shortly flagged by security for fraud check. They demanded screenshot of the transaction showing on my bank account. Sent. Rejected. Sent it again. Rejected again. Logged into my banking website to send screenshot from statement. Rejected. Sent screenshot from mobile app. Rejected. These foolish people don't even know what they are looking for and asking for. Eventually after 4 or t attempts. They said I failed the checks and cancelled my order. The refund was processed and I received less money back into my account than what I paid them. They are unhelpful and utterly useless. Heartless. I will never try shop here again.

My account has suddenly been suspended so I can no longer post reviews of received products. I'm completely confused. I haven't posted anything offensive or violated any policies. No one from the company will give me a straight answer on why this has happened! Btw,previously my reviews have been positive!

Answer: They asked me 8 times to change my review! And offered me $15 out of my over $100 that I spent as a refund. "consider it carefully" consider the fact that this company steals brands
Answer: Hi SHEIN takes about 2 to 3 weeks if your from the uk or USA and Ive order a few things from and the clothes are amazing Im from the uk but if youre from any where else it might take longer
Answer: Do not waste your money on this website, they are very disrespectful, and they do not help their customers. It was one of the worst shopping experiences ever.
Answer: It is a hit and miss. Some items are OK but others are made by them recreating clothes from other companies and the fabrics are literally table cloths of worse. It is best to look at the photos of clothing posted by the users themselves and not she inside. I wouldn't purchase anything they add themselves. Also, to let you know how long it takes. I ordered a few items on April 15th via express shipping and they still haven't shipped them. It is JUNE! So I would save your money and shop at other sites even if they're a bit more expensive.
Answer: It's better for you to check the measurements fir each
Answer: I personally have only ever purchased off of their website. I got my clothes in a good period of time and sure some of the clothes didn't fit the way I needed them too but that's the risk you take buying online without trying something on. I found the clothes to be a good quality. I would compare the quality of items I received to be similar to that of like forever 21 or urban planet. No where is going to be perfect and you have to use your discretion when purchasing something. Obviously you're not going to get this intricate beautifully crafted A+++ quality item for like $13, but I would say the quality was better than I had expected given the pricing.
Answer: My order took four to five weeks. The clothes weren't at all how they looked online either.
Answer: Whatever you do, don't order anything from this site. The shipping took 3 weeks, even after I had paid for express shipping. Further, the items are SO CHEAP, and their return policy is so terrible, that I literally threw items out... Don't think anyone at a thrift store would even want them.
Answer: Takes AGES to come and the quality and sizing is very poor.
Answer: Yes, no phone no., bad reviews will get their attention immediately. Worst online shopping experience ever.
