Worst Online Order Experience - Woodmead

I ordered a fridge 17 March as I knew the fridge I had then was having problems. At least it survived most of level 4 lockdown. But Ecommerce has been open 2 weeks now and yet nothing. I spend about R200 ons calls trying to find out when I will get my fridge since this one has reached its end. As far as the customer support could assist they say the Woodmead store is not responding to queries. I even phoned Woodmead myself but no answer. How does Makro have so little control over communication with stores. No one could get feedback from Woodmead? My fridge is sitting there in the store paid for but i have yet to get any information about delivery. Can I also send my bill to Makro for the food I will have to throw out?

This order was placed 2 weeks before lockdown. The delivery estimate is 21 days. Taking into account you had those 2 weeks we are now into week 5 of possible delivery days ignoring level 4 exclusions.

Further your lovely waiting message on repeat for the call centre states all previously prohibited items wil be delivered in 5-7 days.. we are now past 14days? Why lie so blatantly? I will be driving to woodmead on Saturday and I will stay their until they load my fridge for delivery.

Why all the lies Makro!! Today I phoned again to check ons the status. Now all of a sudden there is no stock? Hoe can that be. I ordered months ago and there was stock. Then lockdown happened and till now no one has been able to actually buy a fridge.. where is the stock!! Or is that another lie? Maybe there never was any stock to start with
