  1. [R1] Wish 1/5 · US Poor products and refused to refund: I bought a laptop case from Wish. The plastic smell is so horrible that even after airing it for a week, the smell is still there. I told customer service about it and requested to refund and I will return the product. They refused saying the product already “fulfilled the requirements”. I insisted and they sound said they will partially refund it as courtesy.
  2. [R6] Wish 3/5 · US Not for kids: It is most definitely not for kids because I was searching up van shoes and showed v**** and toys ifykyk adults.

[R7] Wish 1/5 · US Signing in and reviews: I’ve been waiting for over a month now to leave reviews on the previous items that I received and now I’ve been signed out of the app and when I try to sign back in it just buffers, which is really going downhill and I don’t know how much longer I’m gonna use it honestly UPDATE: still can’t sign back in. Starting to wonder if o got banned even though I don’t think I’ve ever

  17. [R37] Wish 5/5 · US Love Wish!: I love Wish because the prices are great, customer service is great, and I never really have issues with the items. They last as long as you'd at least expect.

CANT ACCESS ON IOS 16.6 iPhone and CAN NOT ACCESS ON IPAD IOS 28. THE WEBSITE WILL NOT LOG YOU IN. JUST REDIRECTS YOU TO THE HOME PAGE OVER AND OVER WHEN CLICKING SIGN IN
  23. [R76] Pick 'n Save 1/5 · US Last APP Update NEEDS FIXING: Not happy at all with this last app update! With all my groceries that I had saved to my list, IT DELETED IT ALL, BUT that’s not ALL, it will NOT LET ME SAVE NO MORE TO MY LIST. I have to turn on and off my cellphone and that doesn’t help.

  26. [R74] Pick 'n Save 5/5 · US Very convenient and focused: Got started using the app during the pandemic, and like it so much I use it all the time. The store maintains a list of the items I buy frequently, and I combine that with the list of items they have on special, which are also listed on the app. The people who select the items are to be commended on selecting the freshest produce. Things I would have selected myself.
