How Mulebuy support worked
Before August 2026 Mulebuy handled questions through tickets and live chat inside the account, with email as a backup. Many reviewers mentioned helpful assigned agents and quick answers about sizes, QC and shipping. Mulebuy also replied publicly to about 56% of negative reviews on Trustpilot. That changed from mid-August: reviewers describe a week or more without a human reply, and an automated message promising contact within 12 hours that did not follow.
Support used to be one of Mulebuy's strengths; since August buyers describe only automated replies.
Contact them anyway, in writing
Even if nobody answers, a written, dated request is useful. Card issuers and PayPal ask whether you tried to resolve the problem with the merchant. A ticket and an email are your proof.
- Open a ticket from inside your account for each problem order.
- Send an email to the address on mulebuy.com repeating the request.
- Include the facts: user ID, order and parcel numbers, amounts, dates.
- Ask for one clear thing: a refund, a withdrawal, or shipment of a named parcel.
- Give a date by which you expect an answer, and screenshot the sent message.
The point of the ticket is the evidence, not the reply.
Fake Mulebuy support
Within days of the August reports, buyers described accounts on Instagram, Telegram and Discord presenting themselves as Mulebuy support, and look-alike websites. Their offers follow a pattern: pay a fee to release a parcel, verify your account through a link, or move your balance to another platform. None of these come from Mulebuy.
| Message | Real or fake? |
|---|---|
| Reply inside your Mulebuy ticket | Real |
| Email from the domain on mulebuy.com, replying to your ticket | Probably real; still never pay through a link |
| Direct message offering to release a parcel for a fee | Fake |
| Link asking you to log in to "verify" your account | Fake |
Real support answers where you asked; it never charges to release your own parcel.

When support does not answer: your options
If tickets stay unanswered, the route left is your payment provider. Card chargebacks and PayPal disputes have deadlines counted from the payment date, so check them now if you paid in July or August. Prepare the order details, the dated tickets and screenshots of the stuck status. Payments made directly for orders are easier to dispute than wallet top-ups; see the payment page.
Italian buyers searched "assistenza mulebuy", and the same steps apply. The Italian pages start at la pagina in italiano.
Payment disputes are the route that does not depend on Mulebuy answering.
Choosing an agent with support you can test
Before trusting your next agent with a big order, test its support with a small question: a size check or a request for an extra QC photo. Note how long a human reply takes. Read the agent's recent reviews for support complaints specifically. The alternatives guide covers these checks, and the status board shows the current status of each agent with a date.
Ask a small question before you send a big order.
A ticket template you can copy
Keep it short and specific. Something like this works on any agent:
Subject: Refund request, user ID [your ID], orders [numbers]. Body: I paid for orders [numbers] on [dates], total [amount]. They have shown the status [status] since [date] and have not shipped. I request a full refund to my original payment method by [date]. My balance of [amount] and withdrawal request of [date] are also outstanding; please process it. Screenshots attached.
Send the same text by ticket and email, and save both with the date visible. If you later open a payment dispute, this is the evidence the provider will ask for.
One clear, dated request with numbers is worth more than many angry messages.
Support in other languages
Italian buyers searched "assistenza mulebuy" and Spanish and French buyers searched in their own languages too. Agents generally answer in English, sometimes through translation. Writing in short, plain English sentences gets clearer answers than long messages in another language, and keeps the evidence readable for your payment provider, who may not read Italian or Chinese either.
Short plain English keeps both the agent and your bank on the same page.
Response times on other agents
Agents differ a lot in support. Larger agents usually reply within a day on working days, and many have staff assigned to accounts. Smaller agents can be slower or answer only in certain hours of China time. Chinese public holidays, especially Chinese New Year and the October Golden Week, slow everyone. A first reply within one or two working days is a reasonable standard; anything consistently slower is worth noting before you trust the agent with a large order.
One to two working days for a human reply is a fair benchmark.
Keep your expectations realistic about Mulebuy specifically: since mid-August the pattern in reviews is automated replies only. Write anyway, because the written record is what helps you elsewhere, and set a reminder to check your payment provider's deadline rather than waiting indefinitely.
Save copies of every message you send and receive, with dates, outside your account.
Questions readers ask
How do I contact Mulebuy?
Through the ticket or chat function in your account and the email address shown on mulebuy.com. Use only contact routes reached from the site you typed yourself.
Why doesn't Mulebuy support answer?
Since August 2026, many buyers report only automated messages. Mulebuy has not explained the delays.
Is the Mulebuy Instagram or Telegram support real?
Be very careful. Fake support accounts appeared after the August reports. Mulebuy will not ask you to pay to release a parcel.
What should I write in a ticket?
Your user ID, order or parcel numbers, the amounts, what you are asking for (refund, withdrawal, shipment) and a date by which you expect a reply.
