DO Not Order
August 20, 2024

They sent half of my items. Have not refunded the money. No phone number to contact. Do NOT trust this company! There's no way of getting your money back. This place is a scam. The clothes that arrived look very cheap and thin.

Crapy customer service
August 18, 2024

Never again will I order Shein crap... I ordered 3 tops in May.received them but all 3 were bigger than I thought so I returned them hoping for Shein to send me a smaller size... nothing since May and no refund of $50. Just glad it was a small $$ amount cos crapy customer service is useless and they pretend to do something but won't. Stealing $50 is pathetic. It's August and still nothing from May... unbelievable

When you have issues with SHEIN
August 18, 2024

SHEIN and its employees do not have any kind of respect towards their customers. They don't have any problem by taking your money but if their service is deficient and you are required to contact customer service, that's when all hell breaks loose. If you must contact cs, you will encounter with employees that don't understand you, employees that are careless on regards of your necessities and overall people more interested in making you feel inappropriate instead of helping you out. They offer benefits for achieving a vip status for spending your money in this website, but when you need to use those benefits they will give you the run around. My problem is with a large order I had placed. Because they keep items all around the world in different warehouses, don't feel shy to think that they mind splitting your order. And they don't care if by doing this they exposed you to spent more money in your purchase. They'd split my order and one single item was sent in a different package than the rest. This package had to be delivered to DORAL, Florida and during the pass weekend it was very close to that area. It was in Miami. On Monday everything changed because the package had been sent to Fresno, California. When I contacted their customer service reps no one seemed to understand my predicament. And here I am, a week later, paying additional taxes for waiting for that package to be send to my country. They are completely careless of your situation! And as for today, the package has not been delivered. I used to purchase items from this website at least once a week and my situation fell on deaf ears. If you request a supervisor they tell you right away that there ain't any available at the moment but if you use "uncivilized" language soon enough you will get someone telling you how awful of a person you are. Don't waste your money or your time in this website.

STAY AWAY
August 17, 2024

They are cheap but you will never receive your merchandise. I ordered a product on August 1st 2024 and 10 days after not receiving my package I called UNI UNI delivery. They said the warehouse was notified to ship the merchandise. I still do not have what I paid for. If you want to waste time and you money you can purchase from this vendor.

DO NOT BUY FROM SHEIN
August 7, 2024

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.

Horrible Company
July 29, 2024

Be very cautious with ordering from this company. I ordered almost $600 in clothes for my daughters back to school and the logistics company FedEx that they used delivered my package to a Amazon warehouse which I should have had USPS not FedEx bananas I chose standard delivery not express. After reaching out to FedEx to try and find my package I got no where and was told they only refund the merchant and that the merchant would have to file a claim so after being directed back to SHEIN I open a ticket. SHEIN refused to help me and continuously redirected me back to FedEx ignoring my request to file a claim. I have still not gotten my money back nor my package found and it's been a week.

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 love SHEIN, but recently I've an experience where a package I ordered was not delivered. I contacted customer service and really and truly it was sort of difficult to communicate with them. However, after getting past the communication issues, they informed me that they would give me a full refund on what I ordered. I was very happy about this because I thought that I had just lost my money and my items. They informed me that I would have to wait a certain time for the refund to show up on my card. To my pleasant surprise, the 'refund' showed up on my card by the very next day, but, did you know that they refund you for each individual item as opposed to the total amount you spent? Regardless, the 'refunds' were coming in, so I was happy. The problem is that I didn't receive all the refunds on my credit card, however, SHEIN's website was showing that the refunds were processed on their end. I contacted SHEIN who informed me to contact my bank and I did but the bank said that I must contact SHEIN because they (the bank) have nothing to do with the refunds. I contacted SHEIN again and they're just telling me the same thing - "According to the refund department, the refunds in question have been processed, different banks have different processing times, blah blah blah." And here I am, almost a month later, no package, a partial refund and the customer service reps seem to be ignoring me now.

FRAUD SHEIN
July 6, 2024

SHEIN YOU HAVE THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE YOU GUYS ARE TURNING INTO A FRAUD! You lost my €115 parcel and claim it was delivered. Instead of helping your customers, you act like you don't care about their hard-earned money going to waste!

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.

Very bad customer service
June 27, 2024

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 had fraudulent charges on my account that I used to purchase items from SHEIN. I was charged $436 on items I never purchased from SHEIN and I never received. My bank said they contacted SHEIN and was told the charges were me and the items were shipped to me. I looked at my SHEIN app and the items were shipped somewhere in Florida (I live in Tulsa, OK). I tried to contact SHEIN and I can't contact them. I have heard of so many other people being frauded by SHEIN also. Now I am so afraid to use them and order stuff, I will not use them ever again for fear of fraudulent charges and they do nothing to help their client.

When I tried to reach SHEIN on their website, I received a ticket number. I had to wait 24 hours for a response. I was looking for a response that said my order went through. But that didn't happen. Instead, I received an email that stated I needed to give them the order number. I don't have an order number because I wasn't giving an email acknowledgment or confirmation that showed an order number. I am in a loop with them. So today I am going to call my credit card company and cancel the order since they did not give me a proper response within the 24 hours and the order did not go through. I don't have any further information from them. This raises my suspicion that this company doesn't know what it's doing. I just started using them and I find their follow up and communications are extremely poor.

I have worked for 400 hours this week just sewing little patterns onto T-shirts. My fingers are bleeding and I keep getting blood on the T-shirts. My boss, Patricia doesn't let me use the bathroom so I keep sharting my pants and sometimes its so aggressive it gets on the T-shirts and I have to just call it Tie-Dye. I will probably get fired and thrown in the basement for this but whatever. At least I won't have to pay to work anymore...

SheIn made me sit on my but in a factory filled with rats that I think carried malaria and the warehouse gave me skin cancer but I did'nt have enough money to get chemotherapy and so I had to cut my own arm off with sewing machine. Im so tired of this job I get 3,000 orders a day and I have to sew the words "I'm so sigma rizz" on thirty sweatshirts everyday. I had to sit on my butt so long it made my butt bleed and I'm currently dying.

This is the second time that I am ordering from Shein because they have very beautiful pictures and modern design of clothes in their website which are very deceptive, but when I received the clothes they are totally different very bad quality and bad cut. Some of them fall apart even while I'm ironing them, so imagine what happens when I try to wash them!
BTW, they have wrong measurement and bad customer service.

I order some stuff in March 2024 And I kept getting an email saying your package is on the way. So last week I get an email saying my package is delivered but I never received it. I tried so hard contacting shein but no reply. I even saw the delivery guy in front of my home,didn't even get out of his truck and he took off without delivering my package. That same time I got an email saying it's delivered. I'm very disappointed in their service. Took my money and I never got my stuff. I won't ever order anything from them again nor recommend to anyone. 🙁
