Poor customer service
May 30, 2022

Not able to reach Shein. A big company should have at least a line available to contact concerning orders. About to order again but never mind.

If you're looking for an efficient, reliable, and ACCURATE online clothing retailer then SheInside is by far your best bet. We all know the excitement that stirs when waiting for that new top or that new pair of shoes, but sadly we also know the cruel disappointment when opening an order just to find that it's not quite what we thought it was...

You will not meet that disappointment when you purchase from SheInside. The website alone offers an amazing collection, clear photos of their products, and even accurate and extremely detailed descriptions of each product. Their prices are fantastic, and I have yet to browse their growing collection without seeing huge sales across the board. The icing on the cake? FREE SHIPPING

I recently purchased a pair of boots from SheInsider and was very satisfied each step of the way. It was difficult to make a decision with so many options. Every pair of shoes in their line offers such a great description right down to the type of material inside, outside, on the sole, style, and season. Also, each product has individual reviews from customers who have previously purchased the item(s).

Ordering from this site is pretty fun - you get 20% off your 1st order, 50% off if you refer friends, and even a points system to earn future discounts by uploading photos or sharing your purchase on Facebook (which we all do anyway, admit it). The process is simple and reliable - everything you'd hope for in a checkout. Free shipping is standard at a minimum of 5 days and my boots came in 7 days despite the holiday season!

This company/site has allowed me to feel excited for the delivery of my package 100% of the time - hands down the best site you could choose. You won't be disappointed.

Dear Sonia,

Thank you for ordering from our website, and we are so sorry for letting you down.

We have measurements on the each product page for your reference when purchasing, hoping to make it easier for you next time.We know that is not good enough and still might cause trouble to our customers, but were doing everything we can to work on that.
Normally we do not pay for the return shipping charge, except the quality issue, please kindly understand.

Looking forward to your reply!

ABSOLUTELY AVOID!
October 19, 2014

ABSOLUTELY AVOID!
I had to convince myself a week after I was supposed to have received my order that this website is not a scam. I ordered over $100 worth of (very cute and well priced) clothes and was promised free express shipping, meaning I would receive my order in under 10 business days. Not only did my order take eleven days to be processed before it was shipped (I ordered my clothes on September 30th) But when I logged onto the web side on October 10th to see what the #$% was going on, it turns out that my order had been processed and I had to "urge shipping" by pressing a button on the side of the page. I did not receive ANY kind of email notification that this was necessary, so as far as I know, the order might have been pressed and just sitting there for three or four days. My package was shipped on the 11th and I have still yet to receive it. I used the live chat to see if I could get some sort of explantation and the associate was not only unhelpful, he was completely condescending and just advised me to wait like "everyone else." (screen shots attached.) I cannot believe the state of their customer service and the false promises they lure you in with. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Save yourself the headache and shop elsewhere.

Christian: shipped on 11th
[03:35:54]	Aliza: I ordered on the 30th...
[03:36:04]	Aliza: I had to urge shipping
[03:36:23]	Aliza: no one sent me any kind of notification about my order having been processed
[03:37:49]	Aliza: I checked the tracking

Hey,
I apologize for this situation, but this is not the SHEIN website. Unfortunately, you have found a fake website representing SHEIN.
If you made any payments, we suggest you report the fraudulent activity directly to your card bank and ask for help in initiating a chargeback as quickly as possible. This is the fastest and safest way to get your money back.
