Festive season not so Festive thanks to TAKEALOT.COM

<p>Dear Takealot.com</p> <p><br />Order # ********** </p> <p><br />Festive season not so festive thanks to TAKEALOT.COM</p> <p><br />On 19 November 2016 I placed a Christmas gift order for my tree children to the amount of R 6 465. Not wanting to have any disappointments on the delivery I specifically made sure that the items I selected showed ‘ IN STOCK ‘ I even clicked on the tab that asked ‘will I receive this before Christmas’</p> <p><br />Check out went well and the funds was deducted from my credit card same day..... no problem taking my money right. I also received a confirmation letter stating I would receive my order before 05 December 2016.</p> <p><br />Well today is the 5th of December, I went onto the order tracker only to see that my order is still in the ‘warehouse’! I wrote them a mail because I'm unable to call as I’m working abroad. The response I got was that Takealot is waiting for one of the items I ordered from their supplier……. WHAT ? then why does it state ‘ITEM IN STOCK’ on the website when in fact it is not?</p> <p><br />TAKEALOT.COM you seriously need to up your game! Judging by other reviews it will take you years to be on the same playing field as AMAZON.COM and EBAY.COM</p>
