Tomtop.com presents a mixed reputation among its customers. On the positive side, many appreciate the competitive pricing and the quality of certain products, particularly when sourced from their European warehouses, which often results in timely delivery. However, significant concerns arise regarding customer service, with numerous complaints about unresponsive support, difficulties in processing returns, and inadequate handling of defective items. Customers frequently express frustration over shipping issues and perceived deceptive practices, leading to a growing sentiment of distrust. Overall, while Tomtop offers appealing deals, potential buyers should be cautious due to the inconsistent customer service experience.

Ordered a phone over a month ago, still hasn't shipped, and support doesn't answer their emails. They said:
Dear customer,
Thanks for shopping.
We are sincerely sorry to inform you because there was something wrong with the product of our supplier before, so you may not receive your order right on time as we original planned.
I waited 10 business days - nothing. No answer from support.
Very disappointing. If you want your product on time, or AT ALL, look elsewhere.
Great products. Arrived well packaged. The items were priced well. Staff were helpful with my query.
Very good shipping, valuable materials, after several purchased item, I'm just recommending this site
I'm from Romania btw.
Tomtop.com, thank you!
Great for rugged phones, good help through helpdesk, and i could change my order whitout any problems
I was looking for some exclusive clothing which I readily found with free shipping. This is highly recommended for free delivery to India with excellence service
Wonderful tomtop... the best... fast shipping and excellent products... I recommend buying here...
After creating a claim with Paypal, and going to the end of it expiring, I escalated the claim to Paypal, and Tomtop refunded me the amount I paid for the item (about $8). They had offered me $4 two weeks ago, but never responded to my counter-offer of the amount I paid. I am surprised, but it took quite a while.
I purchased and received a small bore camera that was supposed to be waterproof. It was not waterproof at all. I have emailed requesting a refund several times and included a picture of the problem over the last 3 weeks, and Tomtop will not even respond to my emails. Worst customer service I have seen, they are not interested in any refund or the real quality of their products. Do not buy anything from Tomtop that you are not willing to throw away and call it a total waste of your money.
Very very very bad web site, very bad products, very bad service and very bad customer support. They have stolen my money.
I strongly advise not to buy any product at tomtop. I bought a mobile phone "UMI Super Smartphone 4G MTK6755 Helio P10" in July 2016.
After 8 months he had a big battery problems. A month later the battery had swollen enormously and the phone didn't work.
I tried to contact support of tomtop to explain my problem and I have suggested they give me back 75% of the price.
But I have got any answer until now.
I've ordered 2 earplugs. The order was put on hold. I was told that the price increased 250% and asked if i was willing to pay the difference. I said no and asked the order to be cancelled and a full refund. The order was cancelled and a new order was created automatically. No refund. While trying to contact someone to solve my problem contact was very difficult. After submitedgoogle app and other sites negative reviews i've got an answer and the goods shipped. Afrer 2 wrong tracking numbers sent and 2 weeks waiting the goods finally arrived. I dont recomend

Great seller! A++ I order a lamp, and they sent it immediatly. So it is very fast processing and shipping
I really like they talking really nice and they shipping was good and fast. I think the products are so quality
I bought a $350 item, It came deffective. It took 36 mails and almost 3 months with TomTop warranty service to get a sutpid $70 refund. All I wanted was my item to work. Bad, bad customer service. Don't recommend to buy anything expensive on TomTop.

Absolute nightmare to deal with, my partner bought a cable which was faulty. Purchased a 2 months ago and the saga has been going on since then. Back and forth emails trying to get my money back product doesn't work. So far they have offered me $10 usd and a $10 usd coupon on a £30 cable. Told me to take it somewhere to look at I did and the mechanic told me the cable will not work but couldn't ascertain if faulty or incorrect.
DO NOT USE DISGRACEFUL COMPANY

A month go I purchased a 3D printer from this company through eBay. First of all the reason I chose them is that they claimed to be a domestic company, based in NJ, as I needed the item quickly. Obviously now I know that are based in China. The item I received was defective. I had to take video and upload to youtube, take photos and send, it just dragged on and I kept explaining that I needed the printer working quickly (it was ordered to help out a charity who print prosthetics for children). Eventually they admit that parts were defective and offered me a $30 refund so I can go find someone to fix it! To take more of my time running around finding a repair place and waiting for the repair! I said no and that I wanted a replacement or full refund. Days later they offer $40... days later $70. Ate this point I just needed to get a working printer so I said refund $100 and I wouldn't never use the company again and also leave appropriate feedback on ebay, which I did. I got the refund and ordered another printer from a reputable company. THE NEXT DAY they contact me again saying that they had 'spoken to their manager and GOOD NEWS! He had approved sending a replacement", I cancelled the one I had ordered from the other company Based on this. Then they start telling me I needed to change my feedback as it was 'hurting their business' BEFORE they ship the new printer. I said no. They kept messaging me telling me I only had 10 days to change feedback, after that it was too late, this is NOT TRUE, don't fall for that. IF they send an official request for feedback update you have 10 days, otherwise you can change it whenever. I told them to send me tracking and when I saw it was on its way I would deal with the feedback. They said it would ship in two days. Three days later nothing so I messaged again. Next day I get tracking and it showed an item now shipping from CA however I could not see that it was being shipped to me so I waited. Yesterday was the delivery date and the item WAS out for delivery... in SAN JOSE, CA which is 6 hours away from me. So... stay away and find a reputable company that have reliable products and who will not lie to you and try to trick you into giving they '5 Star feedback'

UPDATE: I posted this review, plus similar reviews on ResellerRatings and TrustPilot. Emailed TomTop with the links to all three reviews, and let them know that I'd be adding comments to other negative reviews on these sites. They shipped me a replacement drone within hours of receiving that email. Replacement was fine. So you can get adequate service out of them, but you have to do this to get it. Still don't recommend buying from them, but if you made that mistake, here's how you might get some satisfaction.
UPDATE TO UPDATE: Just noticed their idiotic response to this update. Of course I knew they could be contacted by email. As I said, I had been emailing back and forth with them. But you don't get any actual ACTION from them until you do something public like posting on here. For other customers who have problems (and I'm sure there will be lots of you), here's what I recommend: Email them one time and see if you get a legitimate response from them. If not, start posting on sites like this one. NOTE THE URL for your review, and email Tomtop with that address. Then you might expect them to actually try.

I bought a drone with camera from them. When it arrived, it was clear it had already been put together and used by some previous owner, though Tomtop was selling it as "new." I wouldn't have cared, except that the camera wasn't functioning properly. I e-mailed them immediately about replacement or refund, and they told me I would have to pay return shipping! I didn't do anything wrong - they did! They sent me a non-working unit, and now they want me to pay more to correct their mistake? We e-mailed back and forth for two weeks or more, and finally they agreed to send me a replacement AND reimburse me for return shipping. I shipped them the item almost two weeks ago, though, and have yet to receive a reimbursement or a notification that they've sent the replacement.
I do NOT recommend dealing with this company.
Answer: Do not do business with Tom top. Stole $350 FROM ME! Failed to fulfill order and string you along with lies and fake shipping labels.
Answer: They have emailed Me back several times. Every time it was an excuse on why they can't give MW my refund
Answer: Simple answer is NO they will not refund your purchase. Doesn't matter what the reason is. Best bet is to go through your Credit Card if you can - I'm assuming you haven't purchased item yet. My story a while back is... I made a $5 purchase for a tackle box from TOMTOP through eBay. TOMTOP seems like they have several accounts under eBay. I have made a total of two purchases under their different accounts. Both items were for a tackle box. The first purchase was never received and waited 2 or 3 months (I can’t recall) for it to arrive as they described in the listing. TOMTOP’s customer service is excellent when they are selling or in the process of selling you an item. The problem starts when you have to make a claim or return an item. Well they kindly assured me to wait all the way until eBay’s money back guarantee was gone (I think this is within 30 days). I could’ve gone through my credit card for refund but since this was only $5 it was not worth it. Writing the bad review here was fulfilling to me. The second time I bought the tackle box from TOMTOP through eBay arrived quickly this time. The only difference was that they were under different Ebay account holders. I would have liked to leave them bad feedback but didn’t since I did receive the tackle box. Now why did I purchase from them the second time? It was because I didn’t expect to receive it and wanted to go through eBay for the money back and leave the bad feedback……………. Moral of story…. Don’t purchase from TOMTOP unless you can eat the loss.
Answer: Dear customer, don't worry about that.We will do our best to make you satisfied.Our service will help you.
Answer: Smart buyers who don't know about TomTop will read the 1-star reviess. Shipping from TomTop is rather quick -- in my case it was only 8 days. What takes so much time is getting your defective product replaced or getting your money back -- in my case it was over 13 weeks. Good Luck.
Answer: Smart buyers who don't know about TomTop will read the 1-star reviews. It is no accident TomTop has so many: these are real customers with problem experiences. TomTop, like most Chinese sellers, pay customers to post good reviews of their products and many have employees who post positive reviews as well. If you buy from TomTop, chances are very good you will be writing another one of those 1-star reviews three or four months from now.
Answer: Dear customer, I am sorry to hear that, could you please take videos and pictures, then send them to support@tomtop.com. Relevant service will help you.
Answer: Please, please, please start the complaints procedure now. Do not wait any longer, they lie and you will lose your money. They buy time and make phoney excuses. Read the good reviews of Tomtop again - you will spot similarities in the poor gramma and spelling - THEY ARE FAKE and planted reviews by Tomtop to offset the genuine complaints. DO NOT USE TOMTOP. I hope this helps you to be one of the lucky ones.
Answer: Dear customer, I am so sorry for that, we are trying to do and service better. We are glad to hear your suggestions and questions.
