Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 6,766 reviews, most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. Customers frequently complained that ordered items disappeared during transit, arrived completely damaged, or failed to arrive at all, leaving buyers deeply frustrated with poor product quality and missing packages. Buyers also struggled extensively to obtain refunds, as return requests were routinely denied, ignored, or met with endless bureaucratic roadblocks. Furthermore, people experienced terrible support from automated bot replies and unhelpful customer service agents that completely failed to resolve genuine issues. Some reviewers were happy with past purchases, noting fast deliveries or successfully finding unique products that are difficult to buy elsewhere.

They use deceptive marketing practices…

They use deceptive marketing practices and, in my instance, blatant false advertising of actual discounts/price, unless it was malfunctioning, but there's no way for me to find out because....They then make it basically impossible to communicate with any actual humans. If you do get a human, they're unable/unwilling to do anything and essentially just give the same copy the bots give. They really need to be sanctioned for lying to customers, and they need to overhaul their customer support.

Warning

Warning, they do not refund genuine complaints. I have received an item totally smashed and they have refused a refund.
Also, a lot of the adverts they allow are misleading and the items you receive are not what is offered. I ordered an item which had an official logo in the advert and was sent a different make.I am in dispute with them over three items that have missing parts and they are putting every obstacle in the way to refund my money!
I will not use them again!

Think twice before ordering.

If I could give 0 I would. scam and do not pay refunds even though you return the package because completely not as described. They just close the case and Fraudulently take your money and the returned parcel.
Customer Service non existent appears to be just automated as it is always the same replies.

Dear Customer,

Thank you for your patience. We sincerely apologize for the delay in our response.

We appreciate you taking the time to bring this matter to our attention regarding order 3029167104638848.

Due to the age of this order (over two years), detailed records such as complete logistics tracking information and delivery notes are no longer accessible in our platform or logistics systems. To help us investigate further, if you have not received your package, could you kindly provide an official document from the logistics provider? This document should clearly display the tracking number and confirm that the package was either lost or failed to be delivered.

Once we receive this official proof, we will prioritize resolving the issue for you immediately.

Thank you very much for your understanding and cooperation.

Best regards,
AliExpress Customer Service Team

AliExpress allows fraudulent sellers to operate off-platform and fails to protect buyers


Title: AliExpress allows fraudulent sellers to operate off-platform and fails to protect buyers

I am writing this review to warn other buyers about how AliExpress handles fraud.
A seller on AliExpress asked me to cancel my official order on the platform and send payment directly via PayPal. After receiving the money, the seller delayed shipping, deleted the product listing, refused to refund my money, and ghosted me.
I contacted AliExpress support, submitted all screenshot evidence showing the seller luring buyers off-platform to scam them, but AliExpress support responds with automated generic emails.
They claim they will "record the behavior" and
"penalize" the seller, but they take no real action to ban fraudulent shops or compensate victims.

AliExpress refused my refund despite a police report and shipping evidence — extremely disappointing!

I am extremely disappointed with how AliExpress has handled my return and refund case.

Order Number: 3076929450584847
Escalated Case Number: 2053809066481919

I purchased an expensive smartphone and returned it through the designated shipping process. I have an official shipping receipt and have even filed a police report regarding this incident.

Despite providing supporting evidence, AliExpress has refused to refund my money.

What makes this situation especially concerning is the contradictory information I have received.

Initially, I was informed that the warehouse allegedly received an EMPTY PACKAGE. However, after my case was escalated to a higher team, I received an email stating that the returned product was DIFFERENT from the one I originally purchased.

How can the warehouse claim that the package was empty and then claim that it contained a different product?

To make matters worse, the tracking information does not even confirm successful delivery of my return parcel.

I contacted customer support, provided my police report and shipping receipt, and was assured that my case would be thoroughly investigated. Instead, I received another rejection without any photographic evidence, warehouse inspection details, or clear explanation of these contradictions.

I am now left without my phone and without my money.

I trusted AliExpress to protect customers and handle return disputes fairly, but my experience has been extremely disappointing.

I am publicly requesting that AliExpress reopen my case, investigate the warehouse and shipping discrepancies, properly review my evidence, and issue a FULL REFUND.

AliExpress, please review my case carefully instead of sending another generic rejection. I have already contacted your support team and provided my evidence.

I expect a transparent explanation and a fair resolution.

I will update this review if AliExpress resolves my case fairly.

This is two weeks in and Aliexpress sellers are still being sheltered by Aliexpress support team on creating fake labels. DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM. STORES ARE USING STOREFRONTS TO CHANGE THEIR NAMES ONCE IDENTIFIED BY CONCUMERS. THEY ARE STILL SENDING ME AUTOMATED SCRIPTS MESSAGES. NOT REFUND MY MONEY FOR PACKAGE BEING HELD AT CUSTOMS ON ABNORMAL STATUS. FOR 22 DAYS. IT HAS NOW TURNED INTO LEGAL CHARGES. DO NOT CHANCE YOUR MONEY

USE TEMU : ALIEXPRESS IS AN ABSOLUTE FRAUD AND ZERO CONSUMER PROTECTION

AliExpress has turned into a total scam. They collect your money, packages get lost, and you are left completely stranded behind a wall of useless automated bots.

They systematically reject legitimate refund requests and close disputes in favor of fraudulent sellers, ignoring tracking proof. Offering a non-working €1 coupon for lost orders is just insult to injury.

Here are 15 closed dispute tickets where they simply took the money without delivering:

2053808978310750
2053808931790631
2053808931670908
2053808907348408
205380853750139
2053808553692586
2053808479908794
2053808479957393
2053808315890045
2053808316250992
2053808090391478
2053807940848325
2053807940547733
2053807334649800

Don't be fooled by their copy-paste support replies: this platform is a scam. Delete the app and buy literally anywhere else.
