Makro online disappeared order. Worse that the Guptas and Zuma combined.

On 15 February I ordered an item on Makro online. I received an SMS stating that delivery would take place on the 22nd. Immediately I had my suspicions whether or not the deal was going to go through as the website kept displaying "Awaiting Payment" even though the transaction was paid by credit card, even after the 22nd. Unsurprisingly, there was no delivery on the 22nd. On the 23rd I phoned them to query the status. I was told that they would "get back to me". Of course, they never did. On the 25th I phoned again only to be told that payment had indeed gone through and that the item was now with the couriers who would be contacting me shortly to confirm delivery. This has still not happened and I am still in the dark as to ever my order was processed, payment received or where in the ether my order finds itself floating around.

I weep for this country. I weep for myself. But I don't weep for Makro, who can f**k off and die for they will never see a cent from me again.

Awaiting Makro's standardised response of how genuinely sorry they are and they will investigate and promise to get back to me. Which they never will.
