1 Dane B.  · Thank you for prompt refund Unfortunate that it had to take my bank and multiple emails to get to this point. I suggest new delivery company
1 Rhonda E.  · No customers service No delivery No refund AVOID AT ALL COSTS
1 Karen A.  · Never will order again Didn't receive my items and they tried to give me ab incorrect tracking number . So disappointed
1 Luke L.  · If I could give them a zero, I definitely would, products are horrible. Delivery takes forever and they will not let me unsubscribe from their text messages.
1 Katerina C.  · Please don't ever buy from this website. EVERYTHING IS OF VERY BAD QUALITY and the price is more than we would pay for in au for the same bad quality.
1 Carolyn  · Ordered two woman’s tops .Both shorter than picture and sizes are smaller than stated. Not happy with trying to receive refund .

After years of purchasing my account is now temporarily frozen due to irregular activities. According to them there were multiple log in attempts (LIE) or unusual login patterns, (LIE) multiple failed transactions, (LIE)or activity that differs from your typical usage (ANOTHER LIE). Probably it was because i was returning bad clothes but what am… Read more

i supposed to do if the fabric is disgusting or the M size looks like S? You offer me the opportunity to return, so what's the problem? So its been 4 months and they don't know for how long they will be investigating more. Maybe they need 4 more years who knows. Maybe they need CSI or CIA. So now i am trying to delete the account and finish with them. but it needs their approval. and a code which they send to my email but i never receive the code...I receive the privacy request email but not the code in the same email. THE SAME EMAIL . Of course they need 24 hours to get back to me, with stereotypical answers that answer nothing and lead nowhere and offer no help. Disgusting

Stop using imile. They are useless. Uncontactable. Complete waste of time trying to get confirmation on the status of my purchase. Shein lift your game. I have now received a refund. Will never ever use Shein AGAIN. Stop using cheap couriers,

I prefer it over other websites. Products look reasonably similar in real life. Nice site to find cocktail dresses. Swimwear are unique too. Had bad experience with white shirts ( for work) and pants. The fabric was very harsh and barley had any cotton in it

I was under the impression that a gift card for a store is accepted for their whole inventory. Read the fine print as dollar for dollar currency in the form of a SHEIN gift card is not accepted for all products within SHEIN.

Extremely frustrating experience with SHEIN. I never received my parcel, and this has been going back and forth for over a month of daily emails with no resolution. The courier confirmed in writing that the package was left in a public area and that this was against their delivery policy, meaning it was not delivered securely to me or anyone at… Read more

my address. I provided SHEIN with the courier’s admission email, the delivery photo, and photos showing my mailbox could not even fit the parcel. Despite all this clear evidence, they kept insisting the order was “successfully delivered.”

Customer service repeatedly asked for the same documents again and again, ignoring the courier’s confirmation and sending looped, scripted responses instead of actually solving the problem. After a month of constant follow-ups from my side, there was still no accountability or proper investigation.

Paying for something you never receive and then being pushed in circles for weeks is unacceptable. This has easily been one of the worst customer service experiences I’ve ever had.

Unable to get any customer service from them. Tried online but they keep sending you back & forth with zero results. Products not up to standard. Colours are different to advertising. Sizes to small. Show details

 Follow-up  · The sizes are at least 2 sizes to small. Faded colors not the same as advertised. Firstly it was an issue as where to find help or to even find an emails or support system on their pages. Eventually I found it after having to delve deep into their system, in a very round about way. Once sent no reply. This issue happened awhile ago so its already… Read more

I received Lancome cream , didn't come in the box and no safety seal on the jar. I asked for refund. Shein wanted me to pay for postage for return. Shein policy is free return. I didn't get refund.

 Follow-up  · Shein gave me refund recently. Thanks

Scam website. Classic bait and switch scam. I ordered 2 of the same item shown as in stock, exactly what I wanted. A day later I received an email saying they were not in stock, and offered a cheap and nasty alternative I did not want. I immediately cancelled the order. Shein then sent a refund to Paypal but for only one item. A Paypal dispute is… Read more

open to get the other half of the refund back. I have now received a full refund. Do not use this website. There is no guarantee the item you order is in stock. Or if you do make sure you use Paypal to pay to ensure you get your money back

The website does not Shein, it is a web of darkness

Ordered a single local 'quickship' item from Shein at the same time as I placed an order on AliExpress (from China). My AliExpress order was just delivered this morning. My Shein order hasn't even been despatched from the warehouse yet... Customer service keeps spewing there is a TWO WEEK estimated delivery for a local QUICKSHIP. How on earth is a… Read more

1 week processing time and 1 week delivery time QUICKSHIP. Considering you pay more for local product than if I just ordered from China and it is quicker to just order from China. This is a complete scam.

Edit: 7 days later it hasn't been sent and I'm informed it's coming from overseas!! Wth I paid extra for local item I could have just bought it cheaper and quicker off AliExpress myself. What a SCAM and USELESS customer service

Edit 2: They offered a refund but we're actually lying just trying to look like they've done something so Shein refused the refund they offered, they didn't actually mean it... doubling down on the scam part...

Terrible experience with SHEIN’s delivery partner iMile. My order was marked “delivered” even though I was home all day and no one knocked. The courier uploaded two different photos — one of the wrong door, and one of my door with the parcel left out on the public pathway. By the time I checked, it was gone. I never received the package, never… Read more

saw it, never signed anything, and the delivery proof is unreliable according to them. When I reported it, SHEIN rejected my evidence the first time with no clear explanation. Extremely disappointing service from both SHEIN and iMile. I will never be ordering from SHEIN again.

I recently ordered my Hobibear Shoes from Shein. Prices were good, unfortunately the size didn’t suit me. Size 6.5 too tight and 7.0 too loose. I sent the shoes back for a refund. I paid $62.30 for the shoes but received back only $48.90 some excuse about discount. Previously they did refund the total amount. I like shopping with Shein but it’s… Read more

increasingly difficult to trust them. I have asked for the full amount from customer service, waiting for 24 hours to hear from them. Latest email from SHEIN today 7pm. Tuesday 20th January 2026.They have refused to give me the TRUE refund. I will not by anything from SHEIN again.

I placed an order with Shein, and it was delivered by imile logistics. They delivered it to outside my retirement complex near the carpark, they never delivered it to my unit like they get paid to do, instead, they took a photo and marked it "delivered" I never received it! I don't know if the delivery guys stole it, or someone else stole it, but… Read more

it really didn't matter to Shein, because they wouldn't refund my money, even thoe the photo's provided proof that imile left it out front! But because it was marked "delivered" that's not Shein's problem. They asked me for CCTV footage of it getting stolen, but they just didn't care that there WASN'T ANY CCTV CAMERA'S. That's the last i ever shop there! Goodbye Shein!!!!

I wanted to refund something because it was too big even though I followed the sizing guide. Shein sent me the return tracking label to sent the item back. Once it returned back to their address they refused to refund me my money. I opened up a dispute with PayPal & shein lied to PayPal saying that there was nothing wrong with the item & they… Read more

cannot refund my money. So they ended up getting the order sent back & kept my money. They are the biggest scammers, their clothing is poor quality & they are not to be trusted. Tell your friends & family not to buy from them.

I bought a number of personalised items from Shein and the printing was totally wrong, the wrapping paper completely crushed and all the wording was incorrect, but they don’t allow you to return anything that has been personalised in any way. I sent numerous messages that were just ignored. Totally disgusted. Illegal behavoir to not be allowed to return faulty products.

I just received my package of tops from SHEIN. I spent just over $200 for a lot of tops and only 1 top which was adorable was a tad too short at the waist for a large lady like myself to wear so my daughter took it, but the rest of my choices were spot on, material is lovely, designs are gorgeous, I always go an extra size up as I like roomy… Read more

comfortable clothing and I can honestly say I am THRILLED with how fast the delivery was, the quality of material and designs. I am very happy, thank you (from Melbourne, Victoria)

Every aspect of Shein is getting worse and worse. I had so many problems lady. The website is impossible to navigate. You put items in your cart and purchase them only to find out that half of the items did not ship because they were not available, and you paid shipping fee for a few silly items that were shipped. A lot of information misleading… Read more

-prices changes when you put in the items in your cart. Also I was browsing the website, all of a sudden a message came up and said you successfully purcased such and such items. They sold me items I never intended or did anything to purchase. I think it can't get worse that this.. And when you have a problem you can reach customer service, you can't get help to resolve your issue.

1. Damaged Returned Items: I returned three damaged items that Shein acknowledged receiving, yet they refused to refund two of them, now apparently stating in another contradictory email that they have not received them. It cannot be both, Shein, you either have my returns or you do not, and if I am to play your game, my internal records show they… Read more

were returned and received by you. Their handling of returns is incompetent, dishonest, and infuriating, forcing customers to chase them for money they are legally owed.

2. Missing Items: On a separate order, several items never arrived, and Shein repeatedly lied, claiming the shipment was complete. Just one week after delivery, they absurdly requested I provide a video of myself opening the package and photos of the sealed package to prove what was already missing. This implies I should already be suspicious and film myself opening Shein orders so that should they not deliver, I have full proof, because we should expect missing items. This is completely unreasonable, impossible, and shows a total lack of accountability. Their customer service wastes time, dodges responsibility, and refuses to correct obvious mistakes.

Shein demonstrates a consistent pattern of deception, incompetence, and customer exploitation. They lie about returns, deny refunds, make absurd evidence requests, and send endless circular excuses, making legitimate claims almost impossible to resolve. Avoid Shein entirely, the stress, frustration, and potential financial loss are not worth it.

I have made a formal complaint to the ACCC and I urge anyone with an issue to do the same. After over 100 emails, I gave up and disputed the purchase. I very much look forward to the day Shein is shut down

STAY CLEAR OF THIS Dodgy COMPANY. They DO NOT label items clearly as non refundable and then hit you when you try to return. I purchased a few items from the size guide, too small. I take care when trying on items and keep my underwear on (wash all purchased pre wear). I'm on a pension hence money tight and why I purchased here. No refund is… Read more

affecting me greatly, including my mental health with all the baseless back and forth AI messaging.

NO WHERE was the no refund advertised or I wouldn't have purchased

Should by customer benefit have a warning at time of order to alert the customer if non refund. NOTHING

THEY DONT CARE

STAY CLEAR

GO TO TEMU, THEY ARE FAR BETTER..

I’m starting to get sick of the customer service. I used to have no issues with shein. It was easy and convenient but now it’s a headache .

team and you end up forgetting the item and it just sits there. I honestly think that they just do things they dnt have to deal with refunding people and they justify it by sending something… basically making you pay for broken rubbish. I’m ready to move on from shein.

Bought a pair of jeans which I was happy with. Since then I’ve purchased jeans with the same image & style 4 times only to receive vastly different jeans not as described being sent. Each time I’m paying for postage when I order. So far I’ve got no where with my complaint of using same model & description & being out of pocket for the postage. Show details

I love buying from Shein. It's always best to check the size guide for each item. I also check on buyers photos to get an idea of how clothes look on others. Delivery is pretty fast too. Thanks Shein.

The items I have received from Shein in the past have been reasonably good , although the clothing is on the small size so do read measurement description for each item . What I wanted to warn about is that their pricing is inconsistent , you may find an item you like and add it to your Cart , only to find that on checkout the price is higher . … Read more

The Boxing Day Sale which I looked into actually on Christmas Day (late at night )had some items I wanted at x $ , good prices . So I went back on BOXING DAY to select and pay the items I wanted only to find that the items had literally increased by a 3rd if not more .

Now somewhere in the find print it does say their items in the Carts may differ because of changes in currency , sales etc .

However this was a BOXING DAY SALE 26/12/25 , items selected and prepared to pay for within hours , yet the prices were raised in a matter of hours .

Not exactly fair Trading . So I deleted the items in my Cart and no purchases from me . Last time I will even look at Shein.

And also just be aware of the switch of an item/s that is shown on the picture to that of what it is actually your buying , you know " a photo in the original listings shows a make up bag for $1.99" but when you click on the listing the $1.99 items is a toothbrush , the Make up Bag now is $4.99" etc.

It is an online place to get some bargains , but you just have to be aware of how they run their sales , because what you see may not be what you get .

obviously don't care less what they are selling. I tried to leave feedback with Shein but I can't even do that.... obviously they don't want any bad reviews.
