Late deliveries, and pre-order not on time

Takealot have gone down a lot since merging with Kalahari. I used to receive things I ordered next day. Now I am lucky if I get my orders on the 3rd day. Every pre-order I order doesn't come on time and I now have preordered a PS4 game which hasn't been shipped yet and is due tomorrow. With their current delivery turnaround time, this means my pre-order is going to be 2 days late. Takealot, you have moved from a loyal customer to a barely satisfied customer and it is getting more and more likely that I will not order through you anymore and will not be able to recommend you to friends. Why has service dipped so much in the last 6 months???

Hello soapybubbles,

Thanks for taking Maxine from our complaints team's call earlier to go over the details of your pre-order. As discussed it's already been handed over to our courier and is on schedule for delivery tomorrow as per the release date. We always try to deliver parcels as quickly as possible, but same day or next day delivery isn't always an option on standard deliveries. If you require the item urgently please make use of our premium shipping options to ensure you receive it in the fastest possible time.

Thanks again for taking our call. Maxine will monitor your order to make sure delivery occurs as promised.

Kind Regards,
