Makro Online Service a ****?

I wish I could give Makro Online customer service a ZERO star rating because that's how much they suck.

I placed an order on Sep 16th and paid for it but yet to receive it. Below is the email thread:

Guys, seriously…***?

What’s the status of my delivery and why haven’t you responded to me as yet?

You are quick to take my money but you don’t seem to give a **** about the customer receiving what they’ve paid for?

I really don’t want to be nasty but your lack of customer support will certainly drive me to it.

Should I resort to threats before something gets done?

Please, I just want my order then I promise I’ll never contact you again.

Beyond frustrated customer

Hi Thembisile

I have heard nothing regarding my delivery?

You’ve confirmed proof of payment and that you’ll be following up with the Supplier?

I purchased this item almost a month ago, WHAT IS THE HOLD UP????

Regards Lucas

Hi Makro HelloPeter Team

Thank you for at least acknowledging my complaint but having to wait another two days for a response edges us closer to the ONE MONTH mark since I placed my order.

As an Industry giant you should be ashamed of the poor service delivery your online shop has to offer customers, it's *****ing your image. So either vastly improve it or simply close it down as you're alienating customers to rather spend their money elsewhere.

I don't know how long this situation will be dragged out for but I guarantee you that I'll never spend another dime at your Stores, I'd rather pay a little bit extra at a competitor and have the peace of mind that I won't be subjected to this type of ordeal.

Get your house in order.

Hi Makro HelloPeter Team

Your 48 hour reply time has lapsed 48 hours ago and I'm yet to receive any sort of indication regarding the whereabouts of my order/delivery.

@HelloPeter - how do I proceed with legal action as I'm out of pocket and Makro has failed to deliver what I've paid for?

This situation is beyond ridiculous and it just seems as if no-one cares.

Regards
Lucas

Clearly this thread is not being monitored, I'll seek council elsewhere...To the public out there...whatever you do, do not buy anything from Makro Online store...you run the risk of being out of pocket and not receiving what you paid for...In conclusion Makro HelloPeter Team is just as disappointing as the online store....avoid it at all cost

Hi....

So my package finally delivered yesterday...39 days after I placed the original order. Taking weekends out of the equation it's 1 day shy of a calendar month of working days it took you to resolve this matter. A shocker to say the least.

I'll be frank about it...relieved that it's over but confident that it's been the worst online shopping experience ever.

In conclusion...I'll never buy at Makro Online again, and out of principle I'll also be avoiding your physical stores.

I'd rather shop elsewhere, thank you.

Lucas
