Please if I make an order on AliExpress, payment is still being confirmed, I then cancel it

What will happen to my money?

The payment is still not confirmed. And the order has not entered processing.

My money had been deducted sha

I haven't cancelled an order before ever.

I broke my phone screen, and ordered a replacement early today.

Now I'm changing my mind and would rather just buy a new phone.

My money soon enter voicemail?


Your money would be refunded asap depending on your membership level, give or take 5-7 days.

Yes, you can still open dispute after 15 days.
Meanwhile, you can contact the seller to increase your protection period



Okay bro, thanks..

Can you or anyone here recommend any original usb cable? I am tired of sub quality cables.
I use a blitzwolf multiple charger for desktop and car and the only problem I have is the availability of quality cables.

Funny sellers in aliexpress this days
I placed an order and the seller tagged 8days processing period on it. I was not in hurry to get it..., no wahala.
Seller after almost 2 days left for processing days to expire, seller messaged me to cancel the order...., I was like WTF?
Unknown to me, seller has increased the price and asked me to use "others" as a reason for cancelling the order... Which I rejected and used "seller raised the price" as my reason for cancelling the order... Seller rejected the reason three times and I left the order processing period to expire automatically.

Few minutes for the order to expire seller tagged the order "shipped" but refused to process it...apparently to punish me
gringrin

I messaged the seller that I am not in hurry to get back my money or the item, but patiently waiting for my time of dispute....

I woke up this morning trying to log in to my account but got a message saying that the password is wrong? Did someone tried hacking my account?

Also, I tried placing an order in the same store, but my order request was rejected with an error message "try again later" shocked

Thank God my account has been restored...

Guys beware of Chinese grin

He might be one of those arrogant old sellers. Your account not probably hacked but he reported you ,so your account temporarily suspended by the team but when they investigated and found you right, they released your account to u.
By the way, what will be the gain when you eventually open the dispute? Is he trying to refund you lesser money? Are u not to get same money back even if you wait after dispute? Just curious, or are u doing so to make negative feedback for him? I don't get it.

Besides , you people that are able to buy phones for tens of thousands of naira should be able to buy and install apps like cyberus @ play store for a yr licence for around 3$/yr or so for premium protection. It is better than findmyphone app and the likes, because it can easily send you the new number if new sim is inserted and easily you can track the person either through Facebook or security among many other options.
Don't loose your phone so easily like that.

You mean I should've used his excuse as my reason for cancelation?

I am just trying to get back at him in my feedback and probably what he is running away from will still catch up with him. I've written a reported to Aliexpress support team.... I was advised to play along with him till then.. So he will not escape the punishment he is trying to avoid. He is arrogant.

As I said, I am not in hurry to get back my money or the item. grin

Lol, they did it to me too, they just want people to feel how it works then force you to buy their premium product. But I think the price is not that expensive ,for just less than 2k/yr, I think because nobody can say when those idiots can "collect " the phone , though we pray not. So to be on safe side, it is better fo us to back up more with personal security.

Oga, We have Mi cloud.. does almost the same thing as you cyberus, its not an app and you don't have to pay, That's why we use MIUI... grin

Tracking a thief after stealing your phone my be stressful.. cos below 10% of loss were able to recover, 90% only wipe of their data and lock the Device permanently

Once you misplace your phone, It's gone..
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by macbeyland(m): 1:24pm On Jun 03, 2018
Can't it be flashed and his rom and data wiped off to also disable the find device option?

Ok....Does it send u new sim card number if your sim card is replaced? That's what I want to get right....which is my main point. At least you can track easily using Facebook app if that number is ever used on Facebook. Am about to get my first xiaomi product so I don't know may be that feature is there. I just feel for the guy that he said he lost his phone to a thief.

Nope, if he has activated his mi account, the thief would be required to provide same before he can set up the device even after clean flashing it.

How do you think police track some stolen phones from a robbery scene? Talking from experience..Also via Facebook apps, you get the person details if, the same number is connected to Facebook registration.

Anyone using a phone he cannot afford loss, should not buy the phone at all..

As I told you when you phone is lost, it's gone... Only 10% of lost phone were recovered and the stress is to much..

Moral: only buy a phone you can loss.. Some will use all their savings on mobile device and be jumping From Molue in Lagos

The only important thing on my Phone is Data, All Data are on the Cloud.. misplace my phone I wipe and lock the phone.. then recover all my data no time
