How to submit a complaint with Temu
Submit a Complaint with Temu – Get Started Now
Live Chat (Fastest):
For instant help, sign into your Temu account (app or Temu.com) and use the 24/7 Live Chat. On the app, navigate via “You” > Support > select your order/issue > “Chat Now” for immediate assistance.
Online Help Center:
Visit the Temu Help Center online. Scroll down, click “Contact Us”, and submit your request (ensure you’re logged in for faster handling).
Email:
Send detailed emails to help@temu.com or contact-us@emea.temu.com. Provide your order number, account email, and issue specifics clearly, but expect a slower response compared to chat.
Phone (Limited):
Temu has no Australia-specific phone line. International customer service at +33 2 41 74 78 90 (8am–1am CET) exists, but charges may apply, and a response isn't guaranteed for Australian customers.
No Physical Stores:
Temu operates exclusively online. All complaints must be lodged through digital channels (app, website, email, or social media).
Acknowledgment:
Temu responds to Live Chat complaints within minutes and emails or form submissions within 24–48 hours, assigning you a ticket number.
Assigned Support Agent:
A customer service agent will review your issue, often resolving simple complaints (refunds, returns, order issues) during your initial contact. Complex complaints (lost packages, account issues) typically require 1–2 days for investigation.
Resolution Timelines:
- Simple Issues: Immediate resolution via live chat.
- Complex Issues: Usually 1–2 days, but longer during high-volume periods.
Follow-up Contact:
Temu contacts you via your original channel (app or email), providing resolution updates, refund confirmations, or instructions.
Escalation Internally:
Unresolved issues get escalated to supervisors. Temu prioritises customer satisfaction but recommends polite persistence and comprehensive communication.
Common complaints against Temu
Delayed or Missing Deliveries:
Common issues involve late or never-arriving packages. Temu policy guarantees full refunds or credits if deliveries exceed promised timeframes.
Product Quality & “Not as Described”:
Complaints frequently note items arriving damaged or inferior quality compared to product descriptions. Temu’s Purchase Protection covers returns or refunds for such issues.
Refund and Return Difficulties:
Some customers report partial refunds or slow processing. Temu refunds usually appear within 5–14 business days. Always follow return procedures carefully and keep evidence.
Customer Service Responsiveness:
Users cite challenges contacting human agents, repeated automated responses, and multiple attempts needed for issue resolution.
Account and Payment Issues:
Less common complaints include charges without confirmed orders or account access issues. Temu support helps with account resets and verification.

Maintain detailed records (chat transcripts, emails, receipts, photos). These will be essential if you seek external regulatory help.

Temu must adhere to ACL. If your rights aren't honored, you can escalate externally.
