Frequently asked questions

Temu tracking delivered but package not here — how fast to report?
Report within 24–48 hours via Support Center → package shows delivered but not received. Check neighbors, household, mailroom. Late reports weaken Delivery Guarantee and theft claims.
Temu delivered photo shows wrong door — refund path?
Screenshot carrier or Temu delivery photo mismatch. Chat immediately with address comparison. Strong evidence for refund without return on low-value orders.
Temu marked delivered while still in transit — premature scan?
Wait until end of latest estimated delivery day. If still missing next day, file delivered-not-received. Carriers sometimes pre-scan — document timeline.
Porch pirate after Temu delivery scan — Temu refund?
After valid delivery to correct address, theft risk shifts to buyer on many marketplaces. Police report and camera footage support appeal. Success varies — not guaranteed.
Temu apartment locker empty but delivered status?
Contact building management same day. Screenshot locker notification vs empty compartment. Chat Temu with management statement.
Partial Temu order delivered — other items missing?
Treat undelivered SKUs separately — missing item refund path per package. Do not return delivered portion for missing sibling shipment.
Temu Delivery Guarantee vs delivered-not-received — which form?
Missed latest ETA without delivery scan: Delivery Guarantee. Delivered scan but no physical package: delivered-not-received. Pick accurate reason — wrong choice slows review.
Neighbor signed for Temu package I never got?
Retrieve from neighbor first. If unavailable, document neighbor denial and chat Temu with signed tracking showing your name mismatch.
Temu refund without return for delivered-not-received low value?
Temu may grant keep-item refund on low-dollar non-receipt after investigation — not automatic. Chat determines path.
How long Temu investigation for missing package?
Often several business days to two weeks. Respond promptly to chat requests for doorbell footage or sworn statement. Carrier trace runs parallel.
Temu chargeback delivered not received after Temu denied?
Possible goods-not-received chargeback with chat denial screenshot and tracking. Try Temu Delivery Guarantee exhaustion first.
Gift Temu order delivered not received — recipient reporting?
Gift orders may need purchaser to file from account with gift order access. Save your order email link if no account.
