Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

I love the variety and prices on Temu, but the constant pop-ups and misleading promotions are frustrating. It feels like a game to get the 'free' items, which often require additional purchases. Please make the offers clearer and less intrusive.
RidiculouslyWeird
Temu has great deals and a wide selection, but the free gift promotions are misleading. I ended up spending more than expected to qualify for the 'free' items, which never arrived. It's disappointing and feels like a scam.

The app offers good products at reasonable prices, but the constant notifications and confusing promotions are overwhelming. I wish the app would be more straightforward about the deals and stop pushing so many pop-ups.
