Surprisingly Bad Service, such a shame

I logged a return for my son's faulty toy on March 2nd (ref RRN-de84-4793). I was contacted and told it would be collected on Tuesday the 3rd, however it was rescheduled for some reason and I was told it would be collected before 4 on Wednesday the 4th. I then received a call at 4.30 to ask if it could be collected between 5 and 7pm that same day. I receive all my Takealot parcels at my work address so I stayed late to wait for the parcel collection. No courier arrived which wasted my evening, and I did not receive a call or email relating to this matter. I was then told it was rescheduled for friday 6th, again noone came to collect.<br> I contacted Takealot on Monday 9th March to let them know that the parcel still had not been collected nearly a week after logging the return, I was then told the courier would contact me. Did they? You guessed it! Nothing!<br> I am just very surprised, after 10 years of buying from you, out of the blue this terrible service. I know you guys are better than this because I only ever get great service from you. I am just a bit annoyed because my 16 month old son badly misses this toy! <br> Please sort this out, I need resolution not promises.

Hello John3623,

You're completely right in saying we're better than this & we're really sorry for the bad experience after all these years. We're quite disappointed by the situation ourselves as we can imagine the frustration it must've caused you. We're sorry you were messed around like this & will try our best to get the collection scheduled for today so that the return can be processed & concluded soonest.

We've asked our complaints team to get onto this straight away & will be in touch with you shortly.

Regards,
