    The Wish app sucks my 90$ Lazer was in pieces when it arrived , no costumer service #, the 9nly way to get the costumer service number was from my bank when I complained about poor quality , and I was refunded my $$$. Products on the wish app are broken products they cheaply fix !! The costumer service # is a cell phone, that’s says inbox I’d full ! FRAUD App 100%

      One broken item & suddenly everything crap !! When you’ve picked all your toys that you threw out of your pram,take a few seconds & actually think !!
      If you read it properly you’ll see the list on the left of every single item is the names of the actual store you got it from along with the option to contact the seller.
      So you don’t even need to go to customer services, which I add is also easy to get hold of,the prices of a HUGE amount of different items is amazing,as is aliexpress website in China,also FREE shipping on most things.
      So with ALL that saving & only a few weeks for delivery, STILL THERE ARE PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE NEVER HAPPY,NO MATTER HOW CUSHY THINGS ARE,I hope no one took notice of your complaining, as you may have put off people with kids or something and a low income that would benefit greatly,especially for Xmas time !!

    Some of you must be technologically challenged. I use Wish all the time. Sometimes I get my items, and when I don’t they literally have a “did you receive your order yes/no” option. When no is selected it immediately gives you a refund. And when that isn’t an available option, I’ve also received refunds from the “shipping is taking too long” or “shipment not received”. You don’t need to call or email anyone, you just need to pay attention.

      You must be working for wish seeing you praising them so as our stuff hasn’t arrived at all and refund ISNT immediately as your shit talk as the not informed mevits 5-14 days!! Wish staff need to shut up!!

        I didn’t get an item and it’d been about a week after the estimated arrival date. I sent them a message saying I didn’t get the item, they instantly gave me a refund. Then a week later the item arrived. You just had a bad experience.

      • Shane

        03/26/2018 at 7:18 am

        I have a hard time believing you successfully informed them of the issue. I have been refunded multiple times through wish and you even get to keep the item. You probably just don’t know how to use the app properly and it frusterates you. I know its much easier to blame the app

    • Shane

      03/26/2018 at 7:14 am

      Im with you, i have had nothing but positive experiences with Wish, even when the item is not the best or not as advertised, they always get me a refund in a very timely manner and in most cases you don’t even have to send the item back. And yes I have been refunded because nd item took longer than estimated to ship, then it eventually is delivered so again I got the item and the refund….very easy, unheard of easy actually.

    Exactly right I’ve bought loads of things for a couple of years now,only one item went missing, I was refunded immediately with no problems at all.

    I’ve never had an issue that cannot be solved. Read things thouroughly, like a good consumer ought to, and you should not have any “rip offs”. Be aware that it is basically a mobile Dollar Tree, things are not always going to be the best thing ever, but this is why you read the reviews. Read a negative one for every positive one.

    Anybody body buying at Wish should know that they can get the exact same mostly at ShopZero ( http://www.shopzero.net) – the only difference is at ShopZero all products are free (chinese stuff) and only have to pay for shipping…

    I can only imagine how little workers in China get paid for making these products if the company is able to charge so little, ship for so little, and literally refund anyone who just says they never received their item. This is sick and I will be deleting the app now that I fully know what it is. It’s not worth the guilt of knowing what someone went through to make some shitty knock off version that I bought for next to nothing and probably won’t like anyway because the quality of these items is ALWAYS crap. I tried ordering things from China 3 times and the products are always completely misrepresented. Would you want your child (or parent) working in the conditions that most workers in China work in just so someone halfway across the world could have a low quality item made with cheap materials that will surely break or wear out super quickly? Hate this system. Check out this article for more starting info and then search on YouTube to find real interviews and individual stories of people who are being taken advantage of in this system just so others can buy something cheaper. Bleh.

    A wish come true or nightmare?! I am disappointed with the quality and snail-like shipping speed. I found a more interesting and reliable shopping app called FashionTIY in app store.

    • Jennifer

      09/18/2017 at 1:34 am

      Wow, thanks! Downloaded FashionTY — good suggestion – just started browsing and looks pretty cool – so far, I would recommend it —- Anyone else have any experience with this app?

    I don’t know why people are so unhappy with Wish! You’re complaining about crappy service and quality when all you have to do is read the reviews! Anyone with common sense should know this! And the shipping only takes about 10 days do you have so little patience that you can’t wait 10 days for a package? I’ve ordered over 20 items and everything has come in perfect condition and were so cheap. I don’t regret buying any items because I know to check reviews and look at customer photos before buying.

    • Tanya

      08/14/2017 at 4:23 am

      Wow!!! Wish we could get our stuff in 10 days!!! What a bullshiter!!! Its 2 MONTHS already and we didn’t get our stuff!!! Stop talking shit!!!

      • Avan Carr

        03/25/2019 at 7:05 pm

        Tanya, it’s different for every user and depending on what factory/store you’re going through the experience is going to be different. I primarily shop with stores that have 90% or over satisfaction, if they don’t then the products are probably not great even for the cheap rates. And the shipping is along the same lines, some modes of shipping are shittier than others. Two of my items are already in the US after like a week while other items are stuck in customs or etc for the same amount of time. It all depends on what it is, who the seller is, where they are located, etc.

        I’m not saying wish is an amazing app, that is yet to be seen. But I think it’s a hit or miss unfortunately. There’s no “level” of service that it averages out to other than a coin flip.

    Not only have I never had an issue getting refunded when stuff doesn’t come but I have been refunded over things being poor quality. I have been refunded over things not being the correct size even though it is the size that I ordered their size charts are wrong. I have been refunded 4 things coming in the wrong color. I have been refunded because I accidentally ordered something. I have never been asked to ship the item back. I always get a very quick response by just going to the my orders page and requesting a refund from their.

    How do you use promo code for wish? When do you put it in and have you ever had a promo code work for fee shipping?

    My friends, family and I shop from Wish quite often. I agree with the comments about quick resolutions to shopping issues. If an item is not received by the due date, you can contact customer service via the app by sending a message. They may ask you to wait a few more days, and if your item is not received, they will promptly refund your money. Even if you don’t want to contact customer service and just want a refund for an item not received, you can choose that option and your money will be refunded. At least that’s how it worked with me for the few items I didn’t receive. I will advise users to read the product descriptions, especially the size conversions, and view the actual product images posted by buyers. On a phone, you can view buyers’ images and ratings by clicking on the Product Reviews tab. We’ve purchased tons of things from Wish over the years and have been very pleased. (Note: I wear a US size Med for a winter jacket. I purchased a winter jacket from Wish in size XL and it just fit. Now I know that my “Wish” size for coats is a XXL. I wear a size 8 US shoe. My wish size shoe is 9.5 or size 40. I have ~ a 10″ foot. Always check the sizing charts FOR EACH ITEM and take measurements before.)

    I stopped using wish because nothing ever arrives. They do have a refund option and honour itwell, but what’s the point of ordering anything in the first place, just to refund it 5 months later?

  18. Melissa

    02/11/2017 at 8:20 am

    I love shopping at Wish. I do use the reviews, and look at the pictures. It would be nice if everyone rated the products that they buy, so the rest of us could know. I have had 3 (1 damaged, 1 for not arriving by their stated time, 1 that broke on 1st usage) items refunded through the app without any problem. I have ordered many things that are absolutely perfect. Wish has saved me a good bit of money, and enabled my money to go much farther. This discount costs one thing patience.

    I shop from Wish and am very pleased with most of the items i have purchased. If there was a mistake in ordering, then it was due to my own fault for not putting the correct address to start with. Yes you have to check the revues and make sure of the sizing, but you should do this with all things ordered online from any company. Most all my item have been wonderful. I especially the shoes. LOVE the red bottom ones. If i could i would have all my shoes have red bottoms. I love the coat i ordered. After reading some revues i figured out the sizes i need to order and all is great now. As i said any mistake was formed on my part, and i have learned how to order now. I will also continue to order items. Each item comes from different companies. Some ship faster than others. So learn to order on time if you need the item by a certain time period. All i can say is im very pleased with all my items.

    HOW O YOU RECIEVE ORDERS? THRU THE MAIL? OR UPS?

  21. Natasha

    02/18/2017 at 3:49 am

    hi all I’m from South Africa and have been sceptic about the wish.com app, thus i was totally suprised by the fact that the first order i didn’t receive 1 of the 5 items i ordered, i requested a refund and received it. I’m standing now on my 4th order so far within less then a year and all the way happy I receive my goods in good condition all working 100%. so yeah maybe sometimes there are unlucky people who receives poor stuff heck yeah it can even happen to me but that’s not to say that wish is all bad. I will rather order from with then ebay. but thus will love to order from ebay too cause they also have cheap stuff. anyone from SA have ever ordered from ebay and actually received their stuff??

    • Nikeel

      10/11/2017 at 6:58 am

      Hi Natasha. I am also from South Africa and have been considering purchasing from Wish. I just want to know from you – how long did it take for your order to arrive? I’m also still confused as to what shipping company they use to ship their products.

    Don’t buy from this site cause you will never recover your order it happened to me not once but twice I wasn’t buying but thought I would give it another chance and guess what happened? Never got my item all they keep saying is check post office and the post office never got anything…..

    How about import duty and taxes?

  28. Jessica

    04/15/2017 at 8:26 pm

    When I first used wish, I loved it!! Still do, but its been getting steadily more expensive..and combining the shipping cost with the cost of the item, things are becoming almost as much as I can get here at a bargain store without the long wait times. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll still use wish for lots of things, but I’m going to be more careful now to calculate if waiting 2 months for an item is really worth saving 2 to 5 dollars. Before the savings on most things was over 10 dollars and more..but now…the margins are such that the wait times vrs the savings really isn’t becoming worth it.

  29. Robyn

    05/02/2017 at 8:38 am

    Hi
    Do you have to pay import duties on the items when they arrive in your country?

  30. Georgia

    05/10/2017 at 1:08 pm

    Okay I just want to also add in a lot of people don’t get emails back saying they can send the item back and get a refund or new one, Things may come broken accept it.
    You might get the wrong colour or size you also might not get it all these are the things you have to consider before buying from this app I still shop on it because it’s cheap stuff it doesn’t matter to me if I don’t get the item because don’t forget it’s all cheap if you we’re to go out and buy foundation it will cost more then the app.
    so yeah just thought I should add that in for the people who complain because you should know this stuff before hand.

Would I be happy if I was in China and my mom or child was working there, HE’LL YA it means they have a job! And can afford rent and food! First world priorities and moral dilemmas have no place in the rest of the working class world.

    05/15/2017 at 3:54 am

    Oh and wish is okay, usually the stuff is junk and I just request a refund. Never had a problem getting a monetary return. People complaining here seriously worry me, you can’t put 2 and 2 together and just file an “item not recieved”? Instead of running around like a crazy goose searching all the local post offices… like wtf…? Scary to think these people vote.

  33. Cyndee

    05/16/2017 at 8:16 pm

    Okay my mentally ill 12 year old son ordered a lot from wish.com. I wasn’t too worried about it because everything said refunded only a few things were coming I’ve been in the hospital and checked my cc statement and I have a ton of Wish on my cc that was either not ordered or said it was a refund have been trying to get a hold of CS and to no avail

    DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM WISH! I am now starting to get empty packages. I got my second one in 5 days today. The first one, Wish only refunded HALF my money. If they do this to a lot of people, that money adds up quick. Free money for them.

    I love wish. I laugh at people who don’t read descriptions. They see a pic of a car with 2 led lights but the description says “one light”. They say “it’s not like the pic! What bull! Scam scam scam 1 star.”.
    I think to myself, well the pic also showed a car. Did they expect that too?.
    In China if u order a red hat and they send blue, most ppl in Chinese are like “eh, maybe next time”.
    If you just buy basic stuff and parts at wish, it’s awesome!

    How do I pay if I ordered some from wish

  41. Bonnie

    11/18/2017 at 10:57 pm

    My question is…why do the prices change once you put an item in your cart? The boots I want are shown as $11 plus $7 shipping…yet in the cart, the price is $18 plus $7 shipping. Another change was from $8 to $20! What’s the deal….what am I missing?

    • BRIE

      01/09/2018 at 10:15 pm

      when you put it in your cart, there was a deal going on but since you didn’t click submit or purchase before the expiration date, the item goes back to its original price. it will continue to do that EVERRRRRRRRDAY. It’s annoying I know

    • Krisan

      02/26/2018 at 1:10 pm

      BONNIE: Also be sure to check to make sure it’s not on expedited shipping in your cart too.

      To answer some of the other questions: They almost always com delivery by the normal postal service unless you chose the expedited option. Then im not I have never used that option.
      As far as other people seeing what you order, they can only see if you post a review of your products. However, your wishlists are visable to everyone unless you go under settings and change them to private.
      And as far as taxes and other country fees, it usually tells you in the item description area. I’m in the U.S. and I have never had to pay any extra.
      As far as ways to pay, they take credit cards, Google pay, and Paypal. I use paypal personally because i feel its safer, and if i ever do need a refund and they don’t comply, it’s covered by paypal.

      Now to all new and existing customers:
      If your a new customer you can use a coupon code. They randomly give you up to 50% off. My husband used a friends code and got 20% off his first order. When my husband shared his code with me, I received the full 50% off. And you get a usable referral code to give out as soon as you sign up. Although I advise to not hand the code out until you have made your first purchase. And as a bonus, when someone uses your code, you get up to 50% off again as soon as at least one item they ordered shipped. They usually send the shipped notice the next day except on weekends. (NOTE: This discount expires in 42 hours, and unlike the referral codes for new customers, it can only be used by you). Also just a side note, you can google “wish coupon codes for regular customers”, and get discounts as a revisiting customer.
      And the best part of all this is that all referral codes and most sale codes includes the same discount applied to shipping too!!

      So here are some more tips: don’t always buy the first items you like. Instead up at the top it lets you choose “Related” and “product reviews”. Go to related first and by comparing price and shipping costs, you can usually find the exact same item cheaper.
      And don’t just read the reviews on the main item page. Only buy items with good reviews under the “product reviews” tab up top.
      And if you want to know about the seller, about things such as shipping times …you can go back up to where the “product reviews” tab was and slide it to the left to find the “store reviews” tab.
      One more tip I learned is that if you put an item you don’t want in your cart, then go remove it and click your back button, it will pop a message up saying that if you buy now, they will give you an additional 5% off, click the place order button (which won’t place the order, it will simply take you to the page for your information), then use the back button on your device and it will keep that five percent off in your cart until you decide to place your order (and contrary to what Wish claims, that particular discount does stack with your other one.)
      Also, for each item you buy you get points. When you sign up they give you free points (100 I believe).For each picture and review of the item you received, good or bad, you get more points, and for each video you get even more points. Keep in mind that the videos are restricted to under 30 seconds. The points add up quickly, the more points you save up, the higher you’re personal discount unlocks.
      With wish, you just have to be patient, read the info, and it can really pay off for you. Just for an example, ask any female with nice long nails how expensive it is to pay a salon to do Acrylics or gel nail extensions or even just refills or just a bi-weekly gel covering. Long explanation made shorter…I bought the products from wish for my gel fit at home kit for about 35$ including shipping, and half off cost and shipping. I easily learned how to do them from watching a few you tube videos. It’s been about 6 months now and I still have plenty of uses left, and that one kit has payed for itself at least 18 times over in just half a year.
      That’s over 360$, and that’s low estimating it, lol. And as a bonus I get to do my daughter’s nails and get some fun quality time with my very self absorbed beautiful teenage daughter! And btw, that wasn’t including the cost of her nails being done every two weeks either, lol.
      I am sorry to hear so many of you have had bad experiences. I hope this can help future consumers have better ones. I will post a Wish code below, and a Geek (wish company, but geared more towards electronics and men) code as well, both for new customers. Thanks for reading and God bless.

    do not buy clothing from Wish unless you are a midget sized anoerexic. So small I could not even get my tops over my bust, the sleeves were too small and I actually bought two different things and upped the size by two and still were tiny. Hopeless for Westerner. I am just binning them and put it down to experience. Old saying, if something looks too good to be true it often isn’t.
