I have re-written to Temu that in their explanation they have NOT addressed the issue of debiting vs crediting my account and sent them a pic dated Aug 21, 2025. They claim that it might be a pending chargebut it is not! It is a completed transaction. This has been made on my ********** Gift Card and there is no way of my disputing through my bank.
Temu needs to view the charge and trace it also provide proof that their bank actually refunded the money. They may have authorized a refund but it NEVER CAME THROUGH!
Temu, explain the debit on my accountIs there a PO? No, there isnt!
You are responsible for 1) The unauthorized debit 2) an unissued credit.
Total owed for 1) is $ ***** and for 2) $*****.

On or around July 26th, I placed an order with Temu for $1,200 worth of orange inflatable couches. The order was supposed to be delivered directly to my apartment door, as clearly stated in the delivery instructions.However, the delivery did not occur as promised. Instead of bringing the items to my door, the delivery person left them outside, which was both unsafe and contrary to the delivery requirements. As a result, the couches were stolen before I could retrieve them.I am extremely upset by this situation, as I trusted Temu and its delivery process to ensure my expensive order arrived securely. I will also be out of town for the next three months, meaning I have no way to arrange for replacement delivery or recovery of the stolen items.I am requesting a full refund of $1,200 to my original payment method as soon as possible. This loss is the direct result of Temus failure to follow proper delivery procedures and fulfill its obligation to deliver the order securely to my door.I have contacted Temu customer service but have not received a satisfactory resolution. I expect this matter to be addressed promptly to avoid further escalation.Requested Resolution: Full refund of $1,200+ to my original payment method.Business Response

I have attempted to participate in the Cut Price to 1 cent promotion with Temu several times. I have placed enough product in my cart to receive the selected 1 items, but at payment I get an error message that the payment can't be processed further, regardless of payment type, bank used, card used, or when I try. They have tried numerous times to blame it on a temporary network error; however, that would only work if it was one payment type; not every payment type. That would happen once, not every day. Temu has so far declined to resolve the issue. The promotion is clearly a scam or carnival game, and you're not getting the deal.Business Response

I received a damaged fan that makes grinding sound and then shuts off after a couple of minutes. I even sent Temu video showing this, but they had the nerve to tell me it was cosmetic issue and they would not help. It doesnt even stay on. In what world is that cosmetic? Totally useless bots. Temu refuses to send me new fan or cover cost to return. I am disabled and need home pickup and Temu demands I pay more than item is worth to ship back. That is against disability laws to charge me extra for temus mistake. I would like new item sent to me, since Temu wont let me return free. It is clear I keep getting bots on customer service that cannot read and send same messages refusing help each time.Business Response

I bought a chair worth $110 on the Temu platform, but after I received the goods, the chair had quality problems. I have photos and videos, and then I asked the platform for a refund, or negotiated a refund, a partial refund, because the product is too big and I can't transport the chair to the courier station.

I wanted to show one or two of the scams Temu has done in just the last 30 days to me. Then after refusing to help they send me a email blaming me!Will list a number of items that have happened in regular order for the company and thier customer service does nothing but keep apologizing but offering no REAL proper resolution to stop it from happening again or compensating the customer. These are SOME of the things I've encountered I won't list all as some happened when I was first learning the company Sellers sell items that are extremely small way smaller then ads show and they even deceptively edit th8er photo ads to make the item seem larger or what would be considered "Nornal item size" for it to be able to function as what it is. ( Example they sell a metal carbon forged weed puller that anywhere else you bought this it would be a functional normal size and able to dig into the ground and extract a weed without breaking or bending) instead what you get is this tiny unusable peice of scrap metal that is useless( Sarcasim incoming, unless for some reason you need that for your tiny potted plant in the house with soft potting soil in it)They send you regularly broken items that you can tell were broken when they lazily packaged them in a soft bag that is undamaged when you receive it but the item is destroyed. ( photos included of some of these examples btw and a email from temu attempting to for the 3rd time steal what's suppose to be a ultimate calander gift after you you log on a certain amount of days (21 without doing any of thier regular pre-claim items event with purchase and is normally a scam) The seller sends a cheap c*** item that isn't even remotely what you ordered and Temu only wants to say sorry you feel this way in thier non English speaking robotic unhelpful way that every agent is trained to repeat over and over to frustrate the customer and act like its a language barrier, it is not!! They understand & know exactly what they are doing.Business Response

I do not have an order number. The created without my knowledge an email account. It was *********************** , they created this without my permission or my knowledge. *** said they never would create an account without my permission to and that they have no record of creating this with ***** *******. I called Temu many times about this and was put on hold many times. There were at least 45 to 50 items or more that they sent me that I did not order. I foolishly used my ***** credit card for a previous pur***** so they could bill me without my knowledge. So when I saw my ***** statement I was shocked. They claim they sent the orders to this fake email address . There are ***** in fake Temu orders charges. I am elderly , I use a ****** and can't carry heavy items. I usually order from ******. I called Temu and said I wanted to send these items back , they asked for an order number but I do not have an order number because he was sent to the fake email. I ordered 3 then they sent 8. I called 311 and they recommended I call BBB in ************* to help me, SInce they can't find the order and I do not have a number they refuse to send a return label to me. I am retired , just living on savings . I have so many of Temu orders in my home , they heated me as I have no way to return these items and I cannot carry them to the post office or **** I am very worried to the point I contacted a psychiatrist to help with this situation. I spoke to Temu customer service many times and they say they are busy and after a half hour no one took the call so I had to hang up. When ***** contacted them they said they needed evidence but I do not have the evidence because of the email created without my knowledge. I am now left with having to pay the outstanding charges. I am hoping that BBB can help me.Business Response
