Ordered a package off of Temu that used UniUni as their delivery service. My package was going to delivered late which I didnt have an issue with but what I do have an issue with is that UniUni customer service lied to me, told me they did not know where my package was and that they could not get a hold of customs just for me to find out they sent the package to THE WRONG CITY and so far are doing NOTHING to fix it.Customer Answer

I received a message claiming two packages were delivered to my home. They were not delivered. I contacted Temu and was told a refund was granted. It was not. What I did receive for the approximately $60 I spent was a $1 credit towards future orders.Initial Complaint

Today, may 9th 2023 I received an email from TEMU customer support stating my "username" was changed from ********************** to ************************ to my inbox "*********************"The issue is 1. I do not know what TEMU is. 2. Because of this I don't have an account .3. Receiving this email stating I changed my username is a phising attempt. 4. Trying to contact their support is either by logging to an account I don't own and I didn't create or...5. Sending an email from my inbox which contains my actual e.ail address and IP. I'd like to file this complaint to have this company hold accountable for their security leaks and information handling. I do know that an email address is PII, which makes go against local regulations.Business Response

Im not sure what it shows on your side but Ive personally checked all accounts of my friend and the links they used which did not show that they used my link.

They offer all of these incentives and free stuff for inviting people to join. I shared a link with my ***** and he said the link does not work. The screenshot provided is a conversation of him saying the link does not work and also that he spent over 200 dollars on their website. The other screenshot is proof showing that with temu you can get 20% credit for what someone you refered spends. I keep explaining that to their customer service and I keep getting sorry no links get credit for what someone spends . This is completely unacceptable and I followed there rules and games and I never get anything for all the referrals I want more credit in my account other then a **** credit I want the 20% credit of what he spent which was like 220. I SHOULD RECIEVE AT LEAST 40 DOLLARS IN CREDIT.Business Response
