Based on rave reviews from people and my favorite celebs, I made my first order to see what all the excitement was about. I order two items from their plus size line and was surprised none of them fit! While tiring to return I was shocked such a popular store cant afford free return labels. After spending (wasting) on a label I was even more disappointed at their refund policy, they dont give you back your money but a useless store credit to spend on more FashionNovea clothes talk about freaking self-servicing. They didn't even give me the full amount in credit, I utterly feel ripped off I cant believe such a scam of a business is so popular. BUYER BEWEAR!

A few years back i use to be a part of a groups that brought the cultures of black and Asian together, while having fun and making friend. I've only been to three meet-ups and there less than amusing, there were huge age gaps more men are older than the women in the group(some are teens! Ew). Most the women act slutty around the already pervy, socially awkward men, everyone's shallow and kinda jerks, thinks its for dating. I waited some years later and wanted to re-join to see if there any changes, and i was denied because i didn't have a profile pic(for privacy reasons), this group is a joke! I never any friends in that group and if your not thin or pretty they treat you like crap and ignore you.One of the Asian male organizers were really rude to me for no reason. They think their challenging stigma or some crap.

Tip for consumers:
Avoid! the women are $#*!es & the men are asswholes

I'll start by stating in New York uber has the most laziest drivers, more lazy and un- compromising than average crappy cab service. In my experience drivers refuse to contact their customers, they lack any ounce of hospitably, Ive seen cabs on my map literally pass right by me, are too lazy to find me or even make a U-turn. Despite the address I input some drivers will get lazy and drop me off at the wrong spot or a block away from my stop. Some drivers are either to old, lazy or stupid to know how GPS works, which cause locations errors most driver do not want to make up for, for a lot of errors drivers make I "the customer" have to compensate for. Uber's refund system is a joke! If a driver cancel a trip the cancel fee comes out of my pocket! And when I report it they give me credit (not an issue) but I want my real money they toke back! Their rating system is adorably useless, because regardless how many one stars a driver gets whats the point if you can't report the driver on their $#*!ty service or better, make a complaint, I've seen drivers that treat me like crap with five or four stars!?. I'm from NY and a lot of drivers are not American therefore theres a big broken English barrier, try explaining a location to someone who doesn't understand you or vice versa. The only reason I ever use uber is literally because Lyft has error issues on my phone, Lyft is also cheaper with nicer drivers, while uber is the Kwik-E-Mart of cab services. Ubers only good for drunk or lazy riders who don't understand good customer service.

Tip for consumers:
I’d recommend lyft or car renting (if you drive)

All the male members are pigs, their only presents here is to get an easy lay or masturbate to photos, their "admiration" comes off as more as desperation for a lay with anyone! The main "meat" of the site are un-proportion obese Caucasian women, who pose in very sleazy nearly nude photos to the delight of hungry desperate men, while most of the women are not professional erotic models they will continue to post amazon links on their profile in hopes of a loser buying them crap! (like a real whore). The worst part is that its difficult to become popular if you don't look like afro mentioned women, i'm not white and i'm very well proportion with a knack for dressing classy. Looking healthy & classy are apparently not welcomed here. The site's filled with SJW who's "logic" helps validate fat folks, but disregards racial barriers. Don't expect to find a relationship here (unless your want an easy lay) or anyone to take you seriously.The sites demands you pay to just look for members after a short period of browsing, not many people I was able to find in my area as apposed to the rest world where you'll find a dozen.No self-respecting fat woman of any kind should be caught staying here, as the site itself pushes fetishism and stereotypes of fat people.

Tip for consumers:
I would suggest if your a plus size lady not looking for a john and your inbetween or very curvy just try regular dating sites.

I found my first boyfriend on this site! There are some creeps, but the more nice and cool people to chat with out-weight the weirdos and I was able to find so many people in my area. Even if your just playing or browsing, the sites worth a look.

First I refuse to add my order or ticket number here because I already had the issue "resolved", Im just reviewing the service and how I stop trusting them after my very first order.
The first red flag is after I made my first order of a very poorly made electronic, I knew the product was made in china I assume it would ship from china, no, I got an odd tracking number from Czech and worst I was never told it would ship from there. The website to track it was confusing and did not update until two and half weeks later, I tried contacting gearbest joke of "24 hour online support" to tell them I was worried and whats the hold up on my order, Im consistently told to wait before they actually explain what the problem is and they usually tell me after my first or second chat. All in one day!
When that goes wrong they tell me to open a complaint ticket. Another joke of a help system, after my first ticket I'm left with waiting longer than I should, when I'm not getting the help I need or want I go right back to the awful live chat help to speed up this ridiculousness. The next awful part is that the ticket only gets answered after I confront them from the live chat help, apparently help is there its just too lazy to answer. The costumer support is their poorest spot above to all their cheaply sold crap.
My product is eventually delivered, it start to act up and not work as it should I regrettably had to contact their support and the worst was yet to come. I explain to them my issue and they literally tell me to wait two whole business days to get my issue resolved because they needed to contact the manufacture are you kidding me!
Not only was the product cheaply made it is also overpriced compared to how it poorly worked, my issue is I bought a product I needed to use, to wait two days with an overpriced vegetable in my home is unacceptable to me. It came from their warehouse they should have a staff that knows how to fix this problem there, it was so dumbly handled I had to open a dump ticket and wait for their responses, their useless live 24 hour chat could have been beyond helpful here or a proper message forum, they didnt even have that! I gave up and returned the product, for other reason beside their poor excuse of service. I was positive that after the two days they would feed some other crap to waste more of my time and avoid asking for a refund, their true colors show after I asked I was told I only had 7 days to deliver the package back however their website claims I had 48 days to return it, why the change of policy?
Last but not least their review section of their website shows how cheap they are, I typed a review of the product not their service on the product page, it oddly takes a while to post, its now day two since I posted it and its still not on the page. Another thing I notice is that all their products have 5 star ratings which does not sound honest or realistic, it seems their afraid of less than 4 star reviews, I dont know why honesty is what keeps buyers at bay and hopefully warns to the manufactures that they can improve their products. Worst they only keep the five star reviews, thats a cheap lying sales tactic. I refuse to continue to do business with them based on that. My situation is not everybodys but I suggest if youre going to buy something from them make sure its less than 50$ and not a big electronic product, like a tablet. Buyer Beware!

I had to leave Trustpilot because they actually take down reviews! They did mines, over a company i gave a passive aggressive review over their shady business practice. They removed it to appease an over-sensitive bad business, I cant trust trustpilot if they second guess their reviewers.
