A thread for chatting about Temu bargains.
Happy days. now when credit is back rinse repeat. Sometimes it will say promo is finished or expired but give it a couple days and it's back again
Also don't miss any claim days or ya will lose the last day with the big credit back, and for anyone who hast done it don't make a purchase close to midnight as it'll make ya miss your first days claim which will make ya lose the big claim at the end.
I was going to order a few things and got onto the bot for a coupon but nothing doing. Asked for a live agent and got one fairly quick but they too refused to give me a coupon. They are being very mean theses days.
They are. I downloaded app and got a discount off my last order. Don't ask me how, there was a lot of temu offers coming at me. I dunno which one worked!
the discount777 worked a treat for me
Discount777 then claimcredit works better than coupons
FYI warning with the claimcredit one… i used it and have approx 40 euro to claim over the next days… each day you need to login and search "claimcredit" and it brings you to the place where you need to claim. Today i noticed it started a new game and i could not figure out where to claim…. Eventually I found that you need to go through the new game , and it brings a section where there is a "claim" button for the previous game(s) - so was able to get todays credit applied…
You go through the new game but don't have to play ya just have to press the annoying banners. Ya can have more than one game going at the same time if ya want also, max I've done is two at the one time.
Always use the discount777 game before playing and if ya can't find it in your basket in the claimcredit game just search the product while on the cc game and ya will find it with the discount already applied.
Do you know what happens if we return a product purchased using credits, will the return get adjusted based on credits or you get the full return?
I have returned stuff after getting the credits and got refund of full amount of items twice and one other time I got to keep the item but it made it to the bin straight away, all times I got the credit and the claim. Seen some on Reddit saying they got bans from the game for doing such things.
Filled my cart with a load of stuff and left it for 2 days. They've started to discount items in my cart to get me to checkout. 10 euro discount in 1 case.
Whats the delivery times like these days? I ordered on Monday, saw 'arrives in IE in 5 days' thought grand, ill have the stuff in good time to do a bit of diy with it for halloween. Now that its ordered its 'if you dont have it by the 30th €5 credit'. Should I make a backup plan?
Took 8 days for my last order. Arrived 3 days ago.
That message appears with every order. I got an order delivered about 2 weeks ago which was about 6 or 7 days after placing it.
Thanks guys. I havnt shopped on TEMU in a long time, im usually better organised and use Ali so was just wondering. Touch wood sounds like i should have it in good time

Terrible for the workers but Fastway's delivery service was woeful any time I had a package with them.
Always dreaded when they were the delivery company
Awful shower. Pot luck if you'd ever get your parcel.
They were a prime example of cost cutting gone too far and a delivery lottery with absolutely no recourse other than small claims court. Good riddance. Finally PostNL (a similar bunch of cowboys) will need to partner with someone else for last mile deliveries from Aliexpress in Ireland. Now looking forward to reading a similar news about UPS Ireland.
Wait until their delivery drivers (🙄) are hired by the other companies.
Sh1t show coming up on the horizon 🤦♀️
Anything I got from Temu arrived by An Post.
Stuff from Ali Express was delivered (almost) by Fastway. Usually they just leave the parcel inside the gate. I presume they are under too much time pressure to bring them to the house - or maybe they're just lazy and their managers don't care.
Requesting a coupon from Temu chat got me 20% discount and free delivery.
It's a prime example of free or very low cost delivery (like Next's €2 delivery charge) being completely unsustainable.
I think the cost cutting was all on Fastway's side.
There will always be retail demand for the lowest cost logistics, but courier companies need to remain realistic and provide an acceptable quality service instead of trying to undercut the competition by any mean available and wrecking the market. Fastway's business was toxic. Insane that in 2025 they would deliver a 90 cent with free shipping item to your door from China.
It wasn't though, it was being imposed by the online sellers, who dangle the prospect of loads of business but at unsustainably low costs.
I'd reckon the online sellers go for the lowest cost courier. Haven't seen any increase now some of them are using An Post.
Free shipping is standard, in fairness.
Usually a min 25 spend for free shipping
Is it not a min €25 to order at all?
Its sorta both. They wont ship anything unless the min amount of €25 is spent and that then gets the "free shipping"
So if you spend €24 they wont ship it.
