Default Temu. Anyone shopped with them?

I've seen some nice things on the Temu site, but I've never shopped with them before. Anyone had any experience?

I was pretty sceptical but everything I’ve ordered alright and delivery is quite quick considering how far away it is.

That sounds cool.

I think that Amazon has been needing a worthy competitor.

Sooo, there have been reports of incidences of stolen card details with Temu etc. (my wife had a dodgy transaction after using them, but the bank caught and declined it).

That doesn't mean don't use them BUT, personally, I would recommend using a one-use disposable virtual card. Much safer as there's no risk with card details being cloned (as the card ceases to exist as soon as you use it). Revolut or Monzo or whatever.

So my order arrived from Temu yesterday, and everything was great. Jacket fitted perfectly as did the boots. Also got a couple of items for Karl. Less than 25 quid all in. No postage costs.

I'm definitely ordering again this coming week.

I’ve ordered loads of Temu over the last couple of days. It’s a bit addictive

It’s quite funny actually - I work in A&E and lots of admin staff rave about Temu. Like, full on rave and get excited about the stuff they’ve bought. Yet by the sounds of it, most of it comes ‘not as advertised’ lol

I've just received my 2nd order from them and everything was yet again perfect. I can't fault them at all. I'll do some Christmas shopping from them next month.
