MAKRO ONLINE ****

I’ve been waiting for a refund for 2 weeks now and just being told that the finance department is busy with the refund . They were so quick to take money from my account for an order they knew they are not going to deliver . I have sent all the relevant documentation, when I follow up I’m told the finance department is busy . It’s not the first time I have an issue with the online service, they tend to advertise items they do not have stock on .

I just need to be refunded, it is 14 days later without any proper feedback but being told that the finance department is busy. What is so difficult with refunding me . My matter is just not taken seriously , I have made numerous calls and sent endless emails but I keep on being told about the finance department .

The Makro finance department seems to be non existent, I am following up everyday and still not getting concrete feedback on my refund . It’s day 16 today and they are still singing the same tune that they will revert back to me once they have feedback from the finance team . Why is difficult to just refund me . They firstly failed to confirm/place the order, then debited my account of which they were comfortable with . Now the money must come back I’m struggling .

I have followed up again and I am told the same story about the finance department being busy . I have requested to be transferred to the finance department, the consultant said it not possible they do not take calls . I then requested to be cc’d on the email since she promised to follow up she said it’s also not possible . To me everything just looks like a tactic to refrain from processing refunds . Avoid purchasing online from makro .

On Monday ,21/07/2025 I was promised that they are busy with my refund and will be finalised in 48 hrs . I was also promised that they will update me . It’s Thursday today and now I must take it upon myself to follow up again . Why can’t they just process my refund . I will get the same response (excuse) about their none existent finance department when I call again .

On Friday 25/07/2025 the consultant I spoke to said my refund is waiting for approval and should be paid over by the weekend , yesterday major repliec privately on my post with a message that there is is no feedback on the matter . I have been following up from the 30th of June and have never gotten any concrete feedback . Why advertise goods you know you will not deliver and go ahead to take someone’s money ? Now I’m being given a run around. It’s exactly 29 days , it’s honestly frustrating.

I have finally received my refund , more than a month later . I received it last week . I’m just happy that I managed to get my money back , but the process was not a smooth one . I will still shop at Makro , but only at the physical shop . Online system is a nightmare .
