If the products do not satisfy the quality standards, AliExpress will issue a refund.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To take advantage of this program and receive compensation for a faulty product or poor service, you must go through <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/onecommerce.io\/blog\/aliexpress-open-dispute\/\">AliExpress open dispute<\/a> <\/strong>process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To obtain a refund, you must first file a dispute in accordance with the policy. If your order came on schedule, you could only open a dispute with AliExpress before the 15th day after delivery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We will walk you through the process of opening an AliExpress dispute step by step.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Step 1: Sign in to your AliExpress account<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Navigate to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aliexpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-schema-attribute=\"\">AliExpress homepage<\/a> using your preferred Internet Browser on your personal computer (PC) or open the AliExpress app on your mobile device.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click the &#8220;<\/span><b>Sign In<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8221; button in the upper right corner of the site.

The opportunity to open a dispute usually becomes available on the 11th day after the order was shipped.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Purchase protection period for most AliExpress orders extends to 15 days after the buyer&#8217;s order was marked as received. Check whether the Dispute option is accessible depending on the purchase protection timer before making AliExpress open dispute.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click the &#8220;<\/span><b>View Details<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8221; button on the order page you opened in step 2 above.

The reminder will inform you of the expiration date of your purchase protection period.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Please keep in mind that the time displayed by the purchase protection timer is Pacific Standard Time (PST), which may differ from your local time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8332\" src=\"http:\/\/onecommerce.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/opendis.png\" alt=\"Check the timer for &quot;Purchase Protection&quot;\" width=\"800\" height=\"401\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<h2><b>Step 3: Open the order or item you would like to dispute<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Navigate to the &#8220;<\/span><b>My Orders<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8221; button, from the list of things you have ordered, and then choose the order that has issues.
