4) Not charging
5) Finaly Going off completely

I contacted Jumia via email about two months ago about returning the Phone and I was told I cant return the Phone The Phone make is Oukitel k3

I want to buy Nokia 6 2018 i will simply walk into a store n get 1.

today i saw 1 for 70k black friday special, all dats going tru my head is that someone returned it and dey decided to do black friday with it, cause Nigerians dont sell things cheap for nothing.

wel for ur case d pone is a sub standard pone not guaranteed to last that long.

I bought the phone just before this thread was created. I feel bad because the money was hard earned money. I wish I had seen a thread like this, I would have ran away from Oukitel.

My biggest issue is to find a way to claim my waranty or somhow get the phone fixed.

Very wrong statement. It is what you want you get. Cheap things gives short duration. That's just it.

I have bought iPhone 8 for a customer from Jumia. Still working well for him. Will I come here and say Jumia and fake things?

People (especially we Nigerians) love going for fake things because it is cheap.

Even as cheap as it goes.. We still price it further.

@Op..
The item might be sold to you by Jumia Global. This mean it will stress the hell out of you because the phone was sent to you from oversea. Returning it will also move the phone back to oversea too.

Save some cash, buy Xiaomi!

The item (Oukitel K3 phone) was not sold by Jumia Global and I made sure it had waranty as Jumia Global does not offer waranty. My main issue is to get the customer care center address so that I can send the phone to them for fixing.

House,

I need help.

I placed an order for a shirt from aliexpress and according to tracking system, the order had arrived the post. I did not get any call from post office as usual, so i decided to checked. I was told, they have not receive the item. I opened a dispute, aliepress came in to say the tracker shows product is received in post office. i went back to the post office and still same story of not receive yet. I dont know what to do next. Now disputed closed. Please advice on next line of action.
