Don't purchase online from Makro!

I purchased an Infrared thermometer online from Makro at the end of May. Two days after it was delivered I advised Makro that it was faulty. (I had another identical, thermometer so was very well placed to know that it was faulty). The Makro Call Centre is appalling, hopefully this is a temporary phenomenon due to Lockdown. Nonetheless after a long wait I spoke to a very pleasant consultant and was assured that all was in hand for the courier to collect the faulty thermometer and exchange it for a new one. Since then the progress has been nil. I have emailed follow ups. I phoned the call centre today. After a 15 minute wait to have my call answered, the consultant put me on "hold" to track my query. Another 10 minute wait and then the call was cut!! I have always been impressed by Makro's in store Return's staff and policy but am very disillusioned by my Online experience and certainly do not recommend it.
