E-commerce has been one of the trendy places in recent times where people purchase anything they need online. The purchased products are then delivered to your home or nearest location. There are several e-commerce platforms such as Jumia, Konga, eBay, and Alibaba among several others.
However, in this article, we will be discussing if Jumia products can be trusted based on reviews from Trustpilot and some other review platforms.

Can You Trust Jumia Products?
Purchasing products online may be difficult especially when you have seen some bad reviews about a particular product. Most often, these online e-commerce platforms show alluring photos of your searched product only for you to get a disappointing product delivered to you.
Many of us may have purchased goods and products from Jumia with a reasonable amount of satisfaction. However, based on some reviews by Trustpilot, we are forced to believe that jumia products cannot be totally trusted.

Looking at some of these recent reviews,
âJumia is so annoying and more like a fraudulent platform, I bought an iPhone X that the battery does work for up to 2 hours, and even if you are not using the phone the battery goes off on its own I ordered for a return these people that call themselves Jumia returned it that after checking the product that my return is not accepted, am going to sue you people stupid company and everyone reading this beware of them doing business with them is at your own risk their useless customers’ agent will never pick up your calls and they threaten to take back your product with refunding you if you don’t accept the fake stuff they send to youâ by Overry Emakpor.
On another review platform, reviews.io which gave Jumia a rating of 2 stars,
âThe shoe I ordered for a friend looked very nice and manly in the picture but when it came, it looked like a school boyâs shoe that has been in use for a very long time.. very very disappointedâ by anonymous.
