Bad Delivery From Takealot
It Seems like Takealot, should be called TakeAlong! I paid for early shipping for two items. They knew that one item was not on the picking list buit they will not inform you. They will hope you dont notice it! Lucky I opened the parcel infront of the delivery guy. And behold the main item was not there, a Garmin Watch. This was supposed to be given as a gift to my wife. Now I paid R70.00 for early delivery for a Screen Protector and not the Main Item. Which will be only delivered two days later??? Not forgetting to mention, my other order, I made on the 10th of October will only be delivered (Lets Hope So) on the 27th of October?? BUT upon placing that order, it said 7 days delay??? But they ****! I think it is time to purchase anything more from Takealot, cause they are becoming like Eskom, full of promises but no delivery....
Which is 20th October. I received this message at 14:15 today.
And after complaining via numerous calls, one cannot feel that because I complained at Hello Peter, that Takealot decided that my parcel is not important. Let him, that is me wait!
I have been tracking this delivery the whole day, calling numerous times today, asking Takealot to please not disappoint me today. I even asked if it is an issue to deliver the parcel that I would rather go and collect it myself, with no reply to my question. What else could I do but wait.
So yes yet again this delay was intentional on Takealots part and there is nothing that Takealot can do, I will not support or buy anything from Takealot again.

By this time I knew it was all open promises.
I think I did more than doing their work for them, I called Takealot more than once. There was enough time to get back to me and inform me again that Takealot won't be delivering once again.
This is all out of spite because I complained numerous times, with the Takealot staff and complaining here on an open platform for all to see.
Takealot, you did not just spoil my week for me, you spoilt me giving my wife a gift on time. You did not do it just once on the same order but twice.
Please Takealot go look at my Wishlist on my profile and you will see there was still so much I was going to purchase by you but no more.
Thank-you...
