Online order cancellation request not being cancelled and refund not being processed

Order number: ***

On 25 January 2024, I purchased an item on the Game online store. On Monday, 29 January 2024, I called the contact centre to request a cancellation of the purchase and a refund. I was informed that the cancellation request will be escalated (this seems to be the standard process) and the order will be cancelled within 24-48 hours. I have enquired this morning and the cancellation has not been processed as yet, nor can anybody provide any sort of feedback. I enquired yesterday and it was apparently escalated again then. Each time there is some sort of interaction, including escalations, the turnaround time is 24-48 hours. So, there is a never-ending 24-48 hour turnaround time and no feedback.

I want my refund, but this will not be processed until the order is cancelled. Surely the cancellation of an order is not an earth-shattering request and can be dealt...

I am extremely disappointed that I have to follow up every day and the response is that there has been no feedback, please allow 24-48 hours and/or we have escalated so please wait for 24-48 hours.

Hi Michael, thank you for reaching out. I'm sorry, your order hasn't been cancelled as per your request. The request was sent through to the store and regrettably, there's been no feedback. This is not the experience we want you to have. I have escalated the matter and you will be reverted to.

It has been more than 24 hours and I have still not been contacted by anyone. I guess even this platform doesn't facilitate speedier resolution - or any resolution for that matter - of escalated queries.

In your response, you mention that the request was submitted to the store - which store? I will gladly go to the store in question to address this and try to get immediate resolution...?

My experience thus far has been extremely poor and I will never use your online order platform again.

Today, I have received both email and SMS notification that my order has been delayed. Seriously...? After I have requested the cancellation of my order at least five times...!?

Customer service, including escalation options, is non-existent.
