Refusal to refund account :( Return Reference: RRN-ca6d-dbc6

<p>I purchased a 10GB Telkom Mobile Data voucher. The voucher did not work initially. I made other arrangements to get the data as I am studying online through GetSmarter I needed the data right away to make my assignment deadline.</p> <p>I asked that Takealot refund my account but they say that digital products can not be returned.<br />Their website clearly states that:</p> <p><br />Telkom Mobile Data</p> <p>Dial *188* Pin Number# to recharge / SMS Pin to 188</p> <p>Please note the following:</p> <p>1. No reversals of a transaction shall be permitted once a Voucher has been redeemed by a client.<br />2. The Voucher is deemed to have been delivered to the client once the voucher number has left our system.<br />3. Sales of Prepaid Products are Final and returns cannot be accepted.</p> <p>Looking at point 1: I did not redeem the voucher because it never worked on my LTE line.<br />Nowhere does is state the conditions of this product, like what kind of line you need to have.</p> <p>I have a Telkom Mobile LTE line on contract which does allow for top-ups but the Voucher did not work so now I would like my Takealot account to be credited.<br /><br />I am still a great fan of Takealot, I just hope that they see my point of view on this matter.</p>

Hello Dharshan

We are terribly sorry that we were not able to offer you a refund on the mobile data vouchers purchased, however we are currently looking into why you are unable to redeem them and will reach out to you with feedback as soon as it is received.

I actually don't see what the issue is. I bought something from you. It does not work. I would like my money back!
