Customer service sucks

I have order some stuff on the 15th of May. Some of it was in stock and the rest had to be ordered and would take 7-10 working days to be ordered. <br> <br> I have called today and was advised that the stock, which is now on the 12th working day is delayed by the supplier, when asking if I can cancel that as a delay in my order being delivered I was advised yes it would be fine however I will now be charged the delivery fee of R35. <br> <br> I have then enquired about cancelling the entire order and adding it in a new one however I wanted to know if I would still get the items at the special price that I have paid for them, I was advised that I need to send an email to the buyers and they will decide if they will give it to me at the special price I paid for it.<br> <br> I feel like takealot is all about getting there money and no customer service at all, Kalahari has always had a box that there customer could tick to deliver the items in stock, I was only made aware that takealot could do this aswell however I need to call in to have this done.<br> <br> I have had nothing but trouble with takealot and feel that I dont want to do business with them.<br> <br> Kalahari was much better and it is sad they are now combined!

Hello bwbrown01,

Supplier delays are unfortunately not something we have control over, but we do realise this has had a negative effect on your experience with us & we do apologise for this. Seeing that the delay wasn't your fault either, we should've tried to accommodate your situation better & try to find a satisfactory solution or alternative to still assist you in getting the great deal & experience you were looking forward to.

We've asked our complaints team to go over the details of this situation & they'll be in touch with you to try & turn this experience around.

Sincerely,
