Request for Refund – Order #*** (Hisense TV still under warranty and credit approved by Hisense)

Hi Takealot Team,

I purchased a Hisense TV on 29 Jul 2022 (Order #***). In December 2024, the LED backlight failed. I contacted Hisense on 2 Jan 2025, and they collected the TV for repair as it was still under warranty. After a lengthy process, the repair company returned the TV broken and irreparable.

Hisense collected the TV again and approved a credit (Credit Approval No.: ***). Despite being told the refund would come from Takealot and after logging multiple calls online, I still have not received any clarity or my refund.

Please credit my card (***56 1474) with the amount of R 7,998.00 by the end of this week. Due to this frustration, I have purchased a replacement TV from another retailer.

Sincerely, Bev

No response from Takealot!

I cannot recommend Takealot and longer as I am still not refunded for a Hisense TV. I purchase it in 2022 via Micropoint WC Pty Ltd on Takealot. Hisense have confirmed credit and say that this will be done via Takealot.
Unacceptable that I cannot get hold of Takealot regarding this. Hisense not forthcoming either.
All I need is the refund into my card that I originally paid with.

I have already replaced the TV as this is the second month of struggling.

I really wish that Takealot would call me on *** as there is no way of tracking this via their website.

Still nothing forthcoming from Takealot or Hisense despite the credit approval number. Unacceptable that I have still not been refunded, and the buck keeps being passed!
