    Same boat here, battery issue that has never been told by the lightinbox company as the light is the box only. Since we dont see the box no light can be seen.

    i have asked for refund again and will let you guys know what they gonna reply. The first time i asked fro refund they said cant as it has been picked up by SF.

    There is no light, my ozbargain comrades, wake up, fight

    I had opened a dispute asking for refund, anyone follows?

  • simonizmaster on 13/04/2017 - 13:37

    Woohoo I've received my package~! NOT
    I guess somewhere along the way, it got stuck.
    Now the question is still wait for the package ? or proceed to refund process?

    Thank you very much for your support to S.F Express.
    <my tracking number>:this shipment have a lithium battery,we have informed colleagues to follow up.If you want to get more information pls contact with shipper .Should you have any enquiries, please contact our Mainland China Customer Service Representative

    Here's what I got after I 'complained to supervisor' after getting the generic response on a custom support ticket.

    Thank you for shopping by Lightinthebox.

    We are sorry to inform you that the package shipped via SF-Express has been shipped due to customs clearance issues. We are working with the logistic department on this issue, and your package can be reshipped out in the next 3 days. After that the shipping tracking number will be updated and you can check it in the order page.

    If you still have any further inquires, you may reply back, and we will try to reply your message at the soonest on Monday at the latest.

    Your kind patience and understanding will be highly appreciated. We once again regret the inconvenience caused to you and we will do our best to improve our services.

    I assume they mean it "hasn't shipped", but they seem to be saying it will be shipped out again in the next few days and the tracking number updated. This seems to be in line with what Miniinthebox said above.

    I hope they do prioritise it.

  • musicinbed69 on 15/04/2017 - 19:10

    Well looks like the re-shipment process has begun as I received a new email stating shipment, and a new tracking number.
    So far it just says "Shipment information received", which doesn't mean it has been picked up yet (or even available to be picked up necessarily), but rather just that the tracking has been lodged…

    They seem to be planning to send it from Singapore with DHL… So that's good news, I guess they shipped it there over the weekend or plan to.. Hopefully the packages will show as "picked up" soon.

    • simonizmaster on 15/04/2017 - 19:12

      Yeap, I've got that email as well, so what is our compensation from Lightinthebox? for this stupid delays and etc..

      • musicinbed69 on 15/04/2017 - 19:14

        well much earlier on (back when it hadn't even been shipped), customer service stated to me

        After you receive the order and confirm everything is fine, you may get back to us and require for a promotion rewards which valued 10% of this order.

        Which would mean $67.9 rewards credit with them so you can repeat this experience at a later date :D

        • simonizmaster on 15/04/2017 - 19:18

          Yeap, I've got that email/msg from Lightinthebox as well. However it's extra stupid delays now. We should ask for extra 10% may be?
          what does the rep offer for us? But to be honest, I do not want to go thru this again ever… meaning no shopping from delayinthebox.

        • dust on 15/04/2017 - 20:46

          @simonizmaster: Likewise I got the same email tonight. Would appreciate some form of compensation too.

        • Birdseye on 16/04/2017 - 11:44

          Compensation would be great but I will be happy just to get the damn thing in my hands at this point!

          @Birdseye:

          True, seems mine has been picked up now though which is good. Might have it by Tuesday :) For what it's worth though, I clicked one of those spam emails and got a $30 USD rewards credit (with a $150 USD minimum spend)… But it expires in 1 weeks time.

          I have a feeling a 10% reward credit will also have a similar expiry -_- . ffs

        • Birdseye on 17/04/2017 - 06:50

          @musicinbed69: Yeah I probably won't jumping in to use a 10% credit anytime soon…
          I got the same tracking notice as others so it looks like everyone (hopefully) should have their package by tomorrow. Counted back to order date that's 15 business days for me, which is 6 above the upper estimate they gave on their site initially for processing + delivery. Felt like longer than that!

          I'll give them some credit for getting the final delivery done through the weekend so at least we're not waiting even longer, though an extended warranty as Slong mentions below would be a nice incentive to give them another chance.

        • simonizmaster on 17/04/2017 - 07:12

          @dust: Dang.. the first order date was in 24th of March! This took almost 1 month! to get it delivered…

      • B1N CH1CKEN on 16/04/2017 - 23:49

        My DHL tracking estimates Tuesday delivery…about damn time! I think an extended warranty would be a nice form of compensation. Would prefer that over anticipating snail mail delivery all over again.

        I mean, at this point they would need to give us $120+ as a partial refund to be satisfied, but I can't see that happening.

        And they sent this from singapore… but they aren't even based in singapore.. so where the (profanity) has this been 'returned' to?

        They keep repeating the same problem of not (profanity) checking that these packages are okay to send with the shipping company. Do they know and just ignore it? ughhh. Paypal disputing tomorrow unless something miraculous happens.

        • Needles on 17/04/2017 - 22:34

        • Birdseye on 18/04/2017 - 10:31

          @ATO: Dude I would but I didn't actually go through Paypal…which means I will have to try and get a refund direct from LITB. Seriously worried about my chances after this debacle.

        • Needles on 18/04/2017 - 12:22

          @Birdseye: I did try to get refund from LITH but they rejected for the reason that it has been shipped out. shame on them. That's why I go for Paypal

  • Autonomic on 18/04/2017 - 02:35

    I'm still in the processing stage. However they sent me a voucher for 72USD off a 144USD purchase. Anyone else get that?

    • dust on 18/04/2017 - 09:10

      No I didn't get that. Not sure if I want to fork out another 72 USD with LightInTheBox though.

      If we just got a 72 USD voucher with no minimum spend that would be okay.

  • mightyboy on 18/04/2017 - 22:51

    Has anyone had LITB confirm their order has been sent back to the shipper again?

    I enquired about what was going on, specifically regarding the shipping return notice on tracking number, and got the same generic message back that it had been shipped and to wait a week.

    Have they acknowledged it's coming back, or is it an error in the tracking?

    They also refuse to respond to questions regarding compensation. How is it that some people have been offered vouchers?

    Very poor service. Sadly I didn't pay with PayPal. Lesson learned with LITB.

    • Needles on 18/04/2017 - 23:22

      It is very unfortunate not using PAYPAL. There is no way you can get refund but have to wait

    • musicinbed69 on 19/04/2017 - 00:46

      DHL wouldn't tell me why it was sent back, but DHL told me yes, it was sent back. A new tracking number was used for each package to be sent back, and person by the name of "FONG" accepted it in Singapore just after 9AM on the 18th.

      Yeah I honestly think their customer service could be automatic and computerised because they never listen or mention specifically what you're saying.

      Sucks you didn't use paypal :\ . I hope they're telling the truth that they simply didn't put the right sticker on it and can re-send (AGAIN). But I also wonder, maybe they didn't put the sticker on it because they were hoping they could sneak these through.

      • McBanjo on 19/04/2017 - 10:36

        I had the same FONG accept my parcel in Singapore. Their customer service is appalling… Every question I ask gets a generic response asking me to wait ridiculous amounts of time.

  • Birdseye on 19/04/2017 - 06:35

    Finally a breakthrough! Got a new tracking number from DHL last night at 7:45pm, and as of 5:15 this morning it is showing as 'Customs Status updated - Location: Melbourne, Australia'.

    Hoping that 1) It actually is in Melbourne and I'm going to finally get it today and 2) that everyone else's are on their way too!

    • Needles on 19/04/2017 - 08:52

      you must be joking. How do you get the new tracking number? From DHL or LITH?

      • dust on 19/04/2017 - 09:10

        Mine still says returned to shipper. I submitted another ticket and the response simply asked if I would like it to be reshipped??! Unfortunately I didn't use Paypal either.

        • Needles on 19/04/2017 - 10:30

      Oh nice. Good for you and thanks for the update. Here's hoping the rest of our orders arrive soon!

  • mightyboy on 19/04/2017 - 19:58

    Good news… I think!

    I also got a text tonight from DHL saying my order was being delivered soon.

    It quoted a different tracking number; one I hadn't received from LITB before.

    When I look up that tracking number it says it's expected to be delivered by end of day tomorrow (Friday).

    It seems the recent DHL tracking number LITB gave us was erroneous, irrelevant or out of date. They've reshipped it again and not given us the most recent tracking number.

    Hopefully that means we call get our orders soon. The next step is seeking compensation as we didn't get what we paid for.

    Good luck!

    • Siddems on 19/04/2017 - 20:08

      I just got an email from LITB stating that my order has been shipped once again…. and all it says it has been picked up again from Singapore but tracking estimates it is going to be delivered by Wednesday the 26th…. it's something but not what I was expecting to be honest.
      Edit: new tracking number too btw

    • musicinbed69 on 19/04/2017 - 20:44

      I've received a new DHL tracking number too. it estimates delivery by tomorrow even though it was only picked up and processed in singapore a couple hours ago.

      At least it passed the processed part this time. If I get it by tomorrow without any damage or problems I'll be quite relieved.

    There are a lot of people who have been affected by this issue, yet the post only has 5 negative votes.

    I think in the interests of highlighting potential issues for future customers of LITB we should exercise our right to a negative vote.

    If you have ordered this item as advertised with 4-5 day expedited delivery and not received it after 4 weeks, and if you have experienced poor customer service, then I implore you to give this deal a negative vote.

    My vote won't be changing once I receive the notebook. This has been unacceptable.

  • mightyboy on 19/04/2017 - 23:32

    The main post has been updated with new details and a small compensation offer.

    The offer is different (and much less) than Autonomic was offered as per his post above. I'd ask why that is but I'm sure I won't get an answer.

    The update says we need to choose to resend by standard post (7-30 days) or opt for a refund as standard post is required 'due to batteries issue'.

    If that's the case then why is it that several users report receiving their orders by non-standard post already? How is it that DHL is suggesting I have a delivery coming tomorrow? As ever LITB makes very little sense!

    3% equates to roughly US$20 in vouchers…

    • musicinbed69 on 19/04/2017 - 23:37

      I know that's so weird… Cuz mine has departed from singapore with DHL now. So seems again customer service is all over the place.
      I was offered 10% credit way earlier, so hopefully that offer still stands for me.. kinda weird that the rep has been advised only 3%.
      They definitely have some major customer service problems lol..

      edit: kinda makes me think the ones that did get through DHL got through by lying about the batteries. Maybe they kept the lithium declaration on the package and then removed them to resend? Lmao. I'll see what's on the package when/if I get it.

  • Birdseye on 20/04/2017 - 07:49

    Mine arrived yesterday. It had stickers on the box saying it had lithium batteries inside so I don't think they tried to fool DHL, maybe just didn't have the right paperwork the first (or second!) times.

        Well I was after the pro version, which you need if you want to remote desktop into it apparently. I'm not 100% sure installing over the chinese would work, technically it shouldn't since a chinese license != english license. But I think I remember someone saying it worked for them..?

        And btw, all the drivers can be downloaded automatically through windows update, so no need to chase anything down. If you want to use 3 finger press for middle click, apparently that touchpad option is included in the creator update, which is advertised in the windows update section. I'm downloading it now.

  • musicinbed69 on 21/04/2017 - 05:37

    So I tried to get that 10% reward points compensation I was offered a while back. That ticket was closed by customer service before, so I had to open a new ticket, but of course since I've already stated that I've received the package I had to choose between "return or refund" and "custom duty issue" when creating a new ticket. I chose the latter.

    I then stated the ticket # for them to look at where they offered the credit, and to please add it to my account. The response I got was:

    We are contacting you to inform you that our records show that there is another ticket in our system. We would like to avoid confusion when communicating and help expedite the process; therefore, we are deleting this ticket and move forward using the other ticket. Please kindly login to view ticket: 15180626 for our reply.

    They then closed that ticket, so I couldn't 'complain to a supervisor' from within that ticket.

    And of course, the ticket they reference had no reply -_-. Also a day ago they had stated there was a reply to my paypal complaint and to login and read it there, and of course NO REPLY (but this is closed now anyway).

    Their customer service simply MUST be automated or something, how can they state there are new replies when there are none? It's like a computer system taking a guess. I've never experienced such terrible customer service.

    Anyway, I have 'complained to supervisor' on an old ticket (#15187186), and made sure that all my other tickets are CLOSED, and again repeated what I said before. But I wonder if that will get me anywhere either.

    I already have a $30 credit from a previous spam email I clicked on, but that expires on the 22nd (tomorrow). I'd like to combine it with the 10% to YOLO some other stuff but idk if that's going to happen at this rate -_-.
