I bought my TCL in 2021.

It is working strong until now. I am a light user though.

Since Hisense screwed me up, I decided to buy another TCL again. Hopefully its as reliable. :rolleyes:

What happened to Hisense?
They missed the promised delivery date. Model changed 1 day before next scheduled date. Google TV was OOS so they wanted to replace with their Vidaa OS model. I said sorry no. Cancelled order.

Sounds like a quality issue.

Must replace so many times.

TCL’s order fulfillment and customer service are hands down among the worst one can ever experienced.

About a month ago, my parents-in-law ordered a TV from TCL via Shopee. The order status was marked “delivered” yet no TV ever arrived. It turns out they had no stock, and even worse, couldn’t give any delivery timeline, not even an estimate.

Despite repeated follow-ups, all we got were generic, copy-paste replies with zero useful information. Out of frustration, my wife decided to call them directly. The person who answered had a bochap (couldn’t care less) attitude, and even had the audacity to insist she WhatsApp them instead of calling.

When she pushed for a proper answer over the phone instead of getting looped into another round of waiting, the staff reluctantly said they’d call back. A few days later, their brilliant “solution” was to offer a lower-end, cheaper model as a replacement and no delivery timeline as usual!

Eventually, it was found out that the particular model my parents-in-law ordered was actually discontinued when my wife make enquiry about this model pretending to be a potential buyer.

We promptly proceed with refund.

Absolutely ridiculous.

This is the same with any other products from Shopee.

If delivery date is too long, seller has to mark as delivered first.

But it's easy to claim for refund if you did not receive your order.

So it's either you wait or refund.

For me, I encountered the same issue with Hisense. Cancelled order. Checked TCL for stock. Ordered and arrived within 2 days.

Its my 2nd TCL TV.
