Shein adds customer support clause stating help is a courtesy, not an obligation

Shein added a Customer Support section saying it may assist with shipping, return, refund or payment questions at its discretion. It states such help is a courtesy and creates no contractual duty to resolve problems caused by carriers, banks, payment processors, third-party sellers or others. It may refer users to those third parties instead.

Taken from you

  • Assurance of support: assistance is discretionary and may be a referral to a third party

Won back

  • Stated commitment to handle customer service inquiries in a reasonable manner
