***** Takealot Suppliers
On the evening of 25 February 2025 I purchased a Laptop from Takealot. I was directed to pay EFT and not on the app as usual. No problem. The next day when I paid something via EFT I erroneously paid R 19 700.00 into Takealot/suppliers account from who I purchased the laptop. R 19 700.00! I managed after a few hours who the money was sent to as I have the screenshots of sent money and from the laptop transaction the previous evening. The account numbers are matching it says Payfast/Takealot. This is 4 weeks later and after being asked for pdf instead of jpeg for the proof of transactions. I sent as requested twice, 3 weeks later a bank confirmation letter🙄 she must of forgotten to tell me the first time exactly what she will need. Jesus Christ don’t forget to inhale and exhale!
This was sent, they acknowledged the funds, but just don’t pay the money, pleading and explaining when they call but nothing is happening!
Shocking how they treat customers! It’s my money it’s not a return of a product or **** like that.

26 Mar 2025, 10:25It’s been 4 weeks and you have all the relevant documents. I’ve been given this response multiple times! Unfortunately that excuse is worn out. Can I ask you to wake the **** up! I want my money and it doesn’t take longer that 30 minutes to review, it’s simple you first check your bank statements (what should be done monthly anyways) then the confirmation of banking details that you also have, then a payment requisition stated the bank details, proof of payment that were made, signed off by manager and accounts department process the payment. It’s not that complicated if you know you running a business and not your husband’s Lemonade stand. Be a bit more specific! What day are you indenting to resolve this? Maybe next summer?

Only difference is mine is R19 700 and not cents and Rands. It’s THOUSANDS.

Your soonest response will be an appreciated. Meaning get to it or I’ll come to your offices in Rondebosch! Then you’ll have a nasty ***** to deal with, now a nasty ***** whose money you withholding is a serious problem. For YOU. Pick your poison. Your choice

26 Mar 2025, 13:46Oh my. After speaking to the manager now it’s strange that he had no idea of this. I spoke to the Manager Mr Shaaiq R
Do someone is clearly being ********* here. Takealot or Payfast? It’s one of the 2, perhaps both!
But can’t be neither

A different Takealot ***** counted me now and asking documents that was sent 3 times by now! 3 weeks ago. The problem is every time a different idiot contacts you and asking the same but no results. We going in circles nowhere slowly
Come on people do your jobs right are required from a mental asylum?
