Xiaomi UK Reviews 494

I purchased the Redmi Buds 6 Lite, and after only a few uses, the case lid stopped closing properly. This meant I couldn’t carry it in my pocket, rendering the earbuds completely useless. It feels like an absolute waste of money and is certainly not a product I would recommend.

Since the earbuds were under warranty, I returned them for a replacement. Weeks later, I noticed the status of my return was updated to say "Protective case key feeling defect." However, I’ve had no further communication or updates about my replacement. Despite patiently waiting, I still haven’t received a replacement, and the entire process has been unnecessarily lengthy and frustrating.

This small purchase from Xiaomi has caused me nothing but stress, and I would strongly advise against buying this product—or any other from Xiaomi—based on this experience. It feels like an outright scam, and their customer service has been absolutely appalling.

wont let ypou leave review online , wont let you retun brocken product as i dont have original box - avoid like the plauge .
Packaging was kept for 30 days it’s been about 85 days and product broke.

Poor Customer Service Experience
Bought WITH THEM , but when it had issues, customer service was unhelpful.!

I bought the Redmi Buds 6, and after just 3 months of normal use, the small grill on one earbud fell off. When I contacted customer support, they blamed it on usage instead of admitting a manufacturing defect. The response was dismissive and unhelpful.

I regret not checking Trustpilot reviews before buying, as I now agree 1000% with others about Xiaomi's poor customer service. I won’t be buying from them again. Avoid this brand if you expect quality or decent support!

Have never experienced such terrible customer service from a major company.Hsd to return a phone for a replacement.After doing that on December 12,as of January 2 neither received a replacement or a refund.Instead experience customer service seemingly not from U K citizen that involves deliberately refusing to tell you what is going on and when they do eventually promise that will have resolved the matter not doing so I have been customer of Xiaomi since 2018 but never again as they have total contempt for customers and even worse blatantly ignore UK consumer law.This attitude obviously comes from senior management who are responsible for their staff acting like a bunch of scam artists.

Terrible customer service such a shame over such a small issue which would have been easy to sort. Recived a phone from my wife for Christmas was unfortunately not the one required. Requested a return but was a few days over there very short 14 day return policy. Product was unopened and only looking to get a higher spec product from them. They would not extend there policy as a gesture of good will and refused to put me through to a manager. I understand there poicy is 14 days but customer service goes a long way to building a Good reputation.

Zero stars. Worse company ever.

Placed an order 2 weeks ago for 2 phones. One for myself and one for my son for Christmas. A week later I happened to notice a refund on my PayPal account. They'd refunded myle for the phones, however they hadn't told me they were doing this. No communication at all.
Contacted customer service who said they were out of stock but now back in stock, so I could re order.
I re order. A week later, they've not been dispatched and xmas is a week away, so I speak to them on live chat. Assure me they will be dispatched soon. Get an email 2 hours later saying there's been an issue in the warehouse and they will refund me!!

So I place a third order. The only reason being I've had this phone recommended, I know nothing about phones and no time to search as it's an Xmas gift. So I placed the third order and speak to customer service online chat asking if they can ensure a delivery before Xmas. They tell me there is no stock and my THIRD order will be CANCELLED. So until I'm refunded they're holding £1000 of my money. I'm not getting any phones and it was my son's Christmas presnet.
Disgusting company. Avoid.

Do not buy Xiaomi phones.
I had high hopes for xiaomi when i bought poco f6 (my first and last xiaomi phone)
I am facing a lot of inconvenences
deal breakers are :
Android widgets disappear from home screen regularly every day. don't bother putting them on your home screen again, they won't stay there for long.
The very basic app most peope use in day to day life like android auto is just simply not working, tried all suggestions available, my 4 other phones work just fine only xiaomi doesn't.
I wish i didn't buy xiaomi but couldn't expect the number of isssues is increasing with every consecutive update

Got a new tablet in August for birthday but it's faulty and sent it back for replacement as requested but only returned by the end of October. Request for refund before it sent back but they just ignored. Worst customer service and no communication between department.

I was using mi 11 lite ..It's very poor phone after using 1 year it updates software since then power button and fingerprint not working.

If you want to assist I still got the receipt I bought mi 11 lite from Argos but after few months power botton stopped working I was using the phone tapping the screen.

I bought a Xiaomi 12T in September using Amazon website. Received on the 15th, first problem in March, sent it to be fixed and received back. July, again, sent it and noticed that it was taking too long to get it back. I was able to find out that they delivered to MY NEIGHBOUR who I never see, I don't know any of my neighbours. However, I submitted myself to the humiliation of going there to take the mobile. The lady said that she gave back to the courier. I spoke to Xiaomi who said that they would do an investigation. Result of the investigation: 5 months to tell me that I needed a crime report from the police which I was the one to do. Am I their logistics partner or client? Are they thinking that we are in China? Such a joke! Just a few days before they delivered the mobile there, I saw 3 police cars at the property. So no, I would never ever put my life at risk for such a miserable company! At the end, they didn't solve my problem, I didn't have mobile and money and LUCKILY, I bought it with Amazon. Amazon gave me the refund! Never ever waste your money with Xiaomi!

I have purchased smart clock and its cable
Does not work. I tried to produce return label but i have not received any return label. There is no help line or customer service. So, please think twice before purchase from this company. You can not find anybody if you have an issue with your products!

I do not recommend this company and I discourage any purchases because the customer service is non-existent, when a situation arises they will not want to help you and will ignore you and avoid this

Scam company, cancelled my order after around 10 days during shipping then said I had to reorder the item again at a £100 markup!. Customer service non existant, wish I had looked at reviews before ordering. Do not order directly from xiaomi

Fantastic experience. Great prices quick dispatch and next day arrival. Can’t get better than that

They made a mistake on my order

Waited for an hour to talk to support, then they said nothing they could do to amend it, then additionally that the coupon used couldn't be refunded. So they're basically just leaving me high and dry, wasting my time.

I bought a wristband 6 months ago and despite being 'waterproof' it failed on the second day of swimming with it. I had a long e mail correspondence with them but they insisted on me providing the serial number before they could help despite pictures and proof of purchase. It is almost impossible to read the serial number on the wristband and despite taking pictures of the back of the watch and blowing them up it is a very faint imprint. I sent them the best picture I could take and asked them to find the serial number but the response was 'we can't read it - please take a better picture.' They ignored my request for money back or replacement. Eventually I gave up and went back to Amazon who were very helpful and resolved the issue immediately. If you buy from these people write the serial number somewhere safe but don't expect them to be helpful!

Ordered my phone 12days ago, still there is no indication if the delivery to my home is gonna happen or not. They delivered to a pickup shop instead.

While raising this to XiAomi, instead of taking the responsibility they are asking me to coordinate with delivery company directly. Is this something a customer should expect?
Also while raising to their team they said they can refund after 10-15 workings days and offered me a XiAomi coupon of 20£. Is this something fair? Are you still expecting that I gonna buy your products in future (as you are offering coupons).

I strongly think, it is not in top mobile and the reason is quite simple.
