The Truth About Temu on SBS Viceland and SBS on Demand – Temu, the Chinese shopping app, has exploded in popularity with over half a billion downloads worldwide.
With the cost of living still high, its rock-bottom prices have enticed nine million UK users to download and shop on its app.
This Channel 4 Dispatches episode investigates whether these bargain prices are too good to be true, uncovering evidence that some products on its website are made with high levels of harmful materials, with other items like climbing safety equipment and even electrical tools fraudulently advertised as holding recognised safety certificates.
Journalist Ellie Flynn travels across the UK to meet Temu shoppers, revealing how the company has reeled in so many consumers and how addictive its app can be.
