TAKEALOT leaves themselves a a possible *****ster. Which might put potential customers off

In these days of ***** etc we must all be well aware. I tried (and eventually succeeded) in making a purchase from TAKEALOT). Online, I was making a purchase and made a payment via my bank. I then received a message "Äpprove your secure payment" from DPO PayGate. I have never heard of this company. I immediately called my bank and stopped payment. Then to call Takealot to enquire if they knew who DPO PayGate is was virtually impossible. The following day I did receive a call from TAKEALOT in response to an email, and the matter was cleared up. However, they couldn't tell me why they do not associate themselves with DPO PayGate TAKEALOT NEEDS TO ASSOCIATE THEMSELVES WITH DPO PayGate
