Bought a few bits and bobs off the TEMU site.
Anybody else completely confused by the complexity of the silly deals and offers?

Mate had his three accounts cleared out, two were for kids.
Took a few days to notice but the bank did sort it out, took over a month

They make a loss on a lot of the cheap items. But where they make their money is selling your data. Just be aware.

Interesting - do you have any more info? Has this been documented anywhere?
Cheers

Why do I see people posting they "Brought" stuff? Past tense of fetching something, It is Bought, to buy or purchase.
Just my gears grinding I guess.

Wot?

Enjoy it while you can!

When the “de minimis” rules are finally phased out in 2029 there will be customs duties to pay on all those “cheap” imports.

I’m more concerned by the UK allowing them involvement in our nuclear power stations etc (although thankfully now being reined in) …..seems more of a “threat” personally!
