Order *** - Takealot.com - I want my money back

I have ordered a desk for R11k that was supposed to be delivered within 5-7 days. After placing the order, I received an automated email with "expected delivery" for Jan 24th. I decided to cancel the order. This has happened 20 min after the order was placed. Takealot conveniently does not have the option to cancel an order within the portal. After reaching out to their contact center, I was told the only option was to refuse delivery. Is Takealot seriously going to keep my money for 3+ weeks?!
