Do you pay monthly maintenance fee on the barter card

Nope.

But a 2 usd single payment for creation of the card is charged alongside your first funding.

Please oo which site can I use to track this number. It has arrived Nigeria by aliexpress tracking since 1st April 2022.
Re: This Thread Is Only For Aliexpress Shopper by Emrys(m): 5:31pm On Apr 06, 2022
The question does it still make sense to use shipping agents for your parcels from China.

Over the past few years when i buy things from china, i have the sellers ship to my agent after which the agent ships to me, however, a few weeks ago I bought a number of things from different sellers one of the sellers shipped to Nigeria directly, using local tracking I can see the items from that seller crossed customs today and is on its way to my local post office which was way faster than I expected in all 4 weeks

Considering agents take 14 to 24 days to get parcels to Nigeria does it make sense to keep using them, especially if the items are for personal use.

the only advantage I can see with agents so far is bulk shipment and storage till your ready to ship down to nigeria

P/S if you have agents that are faster than the above please share

Had a rude shock some days ago when I ordered an item on AliExpress, price was very moderate but problem was that it was those shops that do "free DHL shipping"; I scrolled through the options and saw AliExpress standard shipping and choose that instead.

Few days later seller ships with DHL (which kind wahala be this ), Tried to check the shop and it was no longer available, I almost shouted; I then sent Seller a message demanding why DHL and not ASS as I chose, and that he issued a fake tracking number, all I got was an auto response, seller didn't even read not reply message.

Fast forward to yesterday and I had an update on the package, so I copied the tracking number and checked on DHL tracking site, lo and behold the tracking was legit shocked shocked

Waiting to see if they really deliver and I hope I get what I paid for, fingers crossed tongue tongue


So update on this story, package arrived Lagos last week and was held by customs, was finally cleared over the weekend and dispatch for delivery, unfortunately I was wasn't contacted and by evening tracking read attempt failed cos receiver's office was closed shocked shocked.
Had to contact DHL CC and was reliably informed that the package was not in my name and it was for someone who works at daily times Ikeja and it weighed a hefty 81kg; at that point I knew seller had given me a fake tracking number.
I just jejeli made use of the dispute button with all my evidence intact, less than 3hrs later, seller agreed to the refund, no questions asked.
Chai but e pain me sha, after all the waiting. Oh well we move on to the next one..... grin grin

@bolded. I don't know about that. I am a new barter user who got registered about 2 weeks ago. My first barter AE purchase was made three days ago and it went thru.

Mfunkynation:

is your AliExpress account new?
maybe you need to appeal

Could it be that these problems are results of conducting a new type of payment method on a known account logged in on an IP address different from the one the account is known to usually log in from.

@ bolded. Dayuuum! That seller is one hell of a scammer. And this thing can pain ehn.

I know something about AE dispute which I'm not sure if it applies to this situation or if it is still in effect. I was once a beneficiary. It is a form of penalty for seller in which the refunded money (to the buyer) is more than the cost price the seller paid originally. The seller is penalised an additional percentage of the total price of the item and the extra is added to the money refunded to the seller.

Now after you must have slammed on the dispute button, try to be as detailed as possible to make sure that there is enough evidence to ensure the seller is indicted for dishonesty. This should include screenshots of your chats with the seller.

Edited: I see you've already filed a dispute.

When sellers try to prevail upon you to do business outside of the app, they are trying to bypass the various means of buyers protection in the event that they (seller) default. Such requests by such apparently dishonest buyers include chatting/messaging outside the app and payment outside the app.

So it is not advisable to heed such requests, at least from my own experience on AliExpress. I haven't done so much on Alibaba to claim expertise on the platform.

Don't deal with such sellers, all genuine sellers do not try to make you pay outside of Alibaba's platform especially if you are a first time buyer.

FYI I've made payment outside of Alibaba's platform, but that was my fourth time dealing with the seller.
