The BIG QUESTION now lies to this "so-called trusted site", IS IT A SCAM? Only you who had experienced how this site works can tell. If you are one of them, VOICE it out... We don't want this to happen to someone else. If this is something to be REPORTED then it should be!
29 Jan 2014. I was amazed by how Hallo Hallo Mall, thinking that this site can really make the internet traffic huge. How they advertise and provide promo is truly amazing, and this is the reason why I got them featured in my blog that time, not thinking that this can turn out bad. After few days and weeks of having it posted in my blog, comments regarding this site blew my mind away. One user even said that the blog title should be changed from BEST to WORST. Another one says that this is truly a SCAM. Take note of those two words - SCAM and WORST. Now it is your choice if you continue to shop in the said site. Just an advice, don't take the risk of losing few bucks, because there are other sites that are truly convenient.
These are the few comments posted in my blog post, Best Online Store – Hallo Hallo Mall:
I checked Facebook regarding further reviews for this site. And I guess there's a lot of people complaining the same way. Here are the few comments in Facebook:
Now it is time for you to say something! Don't hesitate to post your comments. BE SAFE WITH INTERNET SHOPPING!
I've ordered a lot here and it seems na hnd naman sila scam cause narreceive ko naman, lalo na sa Countdown. Yung ibang items matagal nga pero worth it ang wait. Depende naman sa seller ksi un, bumili kayo sa trusted seller nyo sa Hallo Hallo, wag agad maghusga.
ReplyDeleteCorrect :)I really enjoy this site. Infact, malaki naitulong nya sakin. madami lang talaga mahilig manira. I've read from a site na may employee sila named Lanee noriega na nagkakalat ng rumors kasi tinggal sya dahil sa pagnanakaw. So don't believe everything you read. Kawawa naman yunh mga sellers na naghihirap kumita, para lang siraan. :((
DeleteHindi ibig sabihin pag negative na ang reviews naninira agad.
DeleteGood for you positive ang naging experience mo sa kanila.
Pero sa amin na may bad experiences it is a lesson learned.
I'm also a seller kaya I understand where you're coming from. Kaya I was so stressed and affected dahil sa pangit na serbisyo nila.
As for me, I already found a new site to establish my shop. So far smooth,hassle-free at stress-free naman.
Continue to support Hallo Hallo Mall dahil okay naman ang service nila sa iyo.
But don't judge other people na may bad experiences sa site nila dahil hindi mo naman alam kung anong pinagdaanan nila.
San po ngaun ung new website mo? I'm looking for new site to post my products. thanks po.
DeleteFor others scam, for others not scam. People speak of their experience and hindi ibig sabihin nun nanghuhusga agad. Ang iba may good experience ang iba naman nightmares. Masisisi mo ba sila kung iyon ang naranasan nila? Pag nagbayad ka ng tama, you should also expect right service. Different sellers yes we understand that. Kaya nga big factor ang customer service. When you search the net for Hallo Hallo Mall reviews, ang daming negative feedbacks. Point here is: “aantayin mo pa ba na maranasan mo ang naranasan ng iba? “ Why risk your hard-earned money kung makakabili ka naman sa ibang trusted and proven na. Former seller ako dito sa site na ito. When I started I was very positive kahit na marami akong nababasang negative feedbacks dahil OKAY naman ang naging experience ko sa kanila. Pinagtatanggol ko pa nga ang Hallo Hallo noon pag may nagpost sa FB page nila ng negative. I ignored the complaints dahil sa isip ko isolated case naman siguro un. Pero nang tumagal na, nade-delay na ang payout ko. Dapat nga eh palitan na nila ung payout sched nila dahil hindi naman nila sinusunod. Ang mga shipped orders ko naging pending. Di na mahagilap ang customer service. Kahit mag-request lang ng approval for shop reviews para naman kahit papano mataas rating ng shop ko dahil pinaghirapan ko naman din un, ang tagal ma-process. Halos araw-araw akong nage-email walang action. Buti nga ako nade-delay lang ung payout ko, pero ang ibang sellers hindi nababayaran nang tama. Nung open pa ang FB wall nila, maraming sellers ang nagrereklamo dahil sa hindi sakto ang nare-receive nila at hindi binibigyan solusyon ang mga complaints nila. Hihintayin ko pa ba na hindi ako mabayaran bago ako matauhan sa kabulukan ng sistema nila? Wag na, salamat na lang, tama na ung delay.
ReplyDeleteAnd I think this is really TRUE... Before I can comment on their FB page, and I posted my blog there for others to have a reference with with the reviews. Guess, they all just want positive feedback hanging on there.
ReplyDeleteI think their site is one of the best.
ReplyDeletewho gives out points just like that diba?
I also got my items on time, mabilis din naman silang sumagot sa email. So over-all, I like it :)
i pity these people,sabi nga duon sa ibang blogs, they hire people to spead positive feedback na decoy sila as customer and shop owners but the truth is..they are hallo hallo mall employees :) good luck sa pandarambong ninyo. people, read other blogs ara matauhan kayo at di na maloko.maging mapagmatyag. also there are people na who visited peza and dti, we already filed a complaint. please read below: magtulungan tayo mapasara ang kumpanyang ito,we heard malakas ang kapit pero kung magtutulungan tayo,mabubuwag natin ang mga banyaga na niloloko ang mga pilipino.
ReplyDeleteWORST CUSTOMER SERVICE SA LAHAT NG ONLINE SHOPPING SITE SA PINAS. OVER OVER SA PAGKABASTOS MGA EMPLOYEES. OMG.
Deleteread other blogs, nakapag file na sila ng complaints. follow these blogs.
ReplyDeleteAko very satisifed naman, mukang di namna sila scam, kasi sila pa nga nagbigay ng points sakin para makadisocunt e. So far dumating naman on time. mabilis din yung processing nila..
ReplyDeleteI love this site! I've been getting Free items since nagopen ako ng account sa kanila.. love their point system!
ReplyDeleteFor those bumibili gamit ng points, recently napapansin ko na pag nag oorder ako, deal@hallohallomall.com un nag sesend ng email at d na un mismong email add ng mga shop owners gaya ng dati. Kaya puro unresponsive sellers at nacacancel un mga order. Naranasan nyo din b un?
ReplyDeletefirst time ko kumuha sa countdown nila. worth 11,000 php na ipod touch blue. na debit na agad sa credit card ko. ni wala manlang confirmation about my payment. then sasabihin nila nag-email sila na fraud ako dahil hindi ko sinabmit ang requirement na kailangan nila eh wala naman silang email tungkol sa mga requirements. first of all, bakit kailangan pa nila ng requirement when naibawas na sa card ko na nasa soa ko na agad, and hindi pa naman nila dineliver ang item. second, kung hindi ko manlang sana naipasa ang requirements na pinagsasasabi nila, meron akong contact number ni wala manlang tumatawag. bigla nilang sasabihin na cancel ang item. tapos ibabalik yung kinuha nila sa akin within 15 banking days, eh 1 min lang nakuhanan nila ako. this is the worst website na natransact ko. unlike ebay.com. sa usa pa galing ang item pero maayos ko natanggap. ang hallohallo pilipinas na nga walang nangyari. never na ako oorder dito, pati yung authentic daw na pabango imitation lang. also, iisa lang ang customer service nila, ano ba yan?
ReplyDeleteHi ask ko lang kung narefund mo dahil same tau ng nangyari. huhuhuuh
Deletenapahiya ako ng todo sa father ko ng binilhan ko ng pabango dito, imbyerna ang website na ito. mga nagtitinda ng fake! at fraud sila!
ReplyDeletehmm. So far, maganda naman experience ko with them :)
ReplyDeleteI actually specifically like their website among the other ones.
Good for those who have a positive experience, but it looks like 8 out of 10 customers had a bad one. I myself had a terrible experience with hallohallomall. I order an item through their countdown promo. I paid them with points and the remaining via bank deposit. I e-mailed them the deposit details and received a reply that my bank deposit has been confirmed and order is process. The problem is the night I check my email, they told me that my order has been canceled without any specific reason. Trying to contact them but no reply. Base on this experience alone, I can conclude that they are a SCAM!
ReplyDelete-they didn't send the item I order
-they didn't give back my money
-they didn't honor the points I earned
-they don't reply back after the item has been paid
-very very bad customer service
-most of their promo's are marketing b*ll$h!t
Now, you tell me, is it a scam or not?
You might want to check my items in hallohallomall :) http://hallohallomall.com/stonesattached/index.html i am still a starter and i hope things will be good.
ReplyDeleteI got the corn kerneler today after 7days (w/in Manila delivery, item came from Manila as well) and it doesn't look like it's brand new! It appears to be a second hand item that was placed in a crumpled box with lots of tape to make it appear like brand new. Oh well, maybe that's how it was supposed to be since all of my points was used to purchase the said item.. Don't know if I should be happy or not.. After so many reviews and inquiry made on the sellers shop, none of it was posted. They never really allowed to post a poor review so that they will all look good. I'm starting to think that this site is really a scam!!!!
ReplyDeletei agree to all of the negative comments regarding hallo hallo mall. please don't take your chances, you will ultimately
ReplyDeleteregret it someday. beware of scammers, fake products of this site. i recommend those who will avail you the COD privilege like lazada, zalora, a-deals, ebay phils, cheap dito, etc. they are more trustworthy, classy and onliner shoppers friendly.
I was so amazed about the services rendered by Halo-Halo Mall. I ordered Maxx Buzz cellphone. I used points and I'm very happy that it was honored. My order arrived late to the time we have agreed but I was satisfied with it because it was arrived. For me the services of Hallo-Hallo Mall is good so far.
ReplyDeletefor me, hindi ito scam..kasi natatanggap ko lahat order ko..good for me.. :-)
ReplyDeleteI was very dissatisfied with my order from them, it was my first time pa naman. I waited for 5 days for my order but wla pa.So I emailed their customer service and dun ko pa nalaman na na delete daw ang order ko due to system error. They will re process the order daw pero 2-30 working days naman ang eta for delivery. So I asked for my order to be cancelled and get a refund. They'll process it naman kaso I need to wait na naman for 15 working days for the refund. Hay!!! Very bad experience. I'll never shop with them again.
ReplyDeleteNatatanggap ng friend ko lahat ng order nya kahit man points lang ginagamit nya. I believe the site is not a scam.
ReplyDeleteFIRST ONLINE buy ko Got free 8 gb microSD card gumamit kasi ako ng POINTS. okay naman
ReplyDeleteSya 5 out of 5 lalo na pag natapat ka sa Mabilis na SELLER.
Yung una kong transaction eh pinacancel ko eh kasi mabagal. nothing to worry kung points and COD ang way of payment mo.Mas maganda hawak mo pera mo bago matanggap.
i was so happy at first getting started..later on i tried several times to purchase puro cancel, i think more than 10x ako nag order, walang tawag puro cancel, until such time na nag email ako of whats really happening but nakacancel, i always receive email na pending yong status tapos next email cancel..i was thinking na baka hindi legit ang website na ito..nakakatawa kasi recently nadisable pa yong account ko, now na more than 300 points na ako sa account ko..nakakaloka naman yan..
ReplyDeleteUsed their service for almost 2 years and I was very pleased. But they've been on an account cancelling spree lately. My account got cancelled due to violating the multiple account policy. Thing is I didn't have multiple accounts. They just cancelled my account and orders. I guess they're a sinking ship now.
