Kalahari said to me now, the bank rejected the payment as they thought it was fraud - i called the bank they have no record of any fraud claims on their system.

Something sounds fishy here - i asked kalahari for the confirmation they received from the bank

I placed 4 orders on friday all with the same card, 3 of them went through only the largest one was cancelled

I'm in the same boat (almost). I phoned Kalahari and they say "We are waiting on an Authorization Code from FNB". I phone FNB, and they say they waiting on Kalahari even though I have an email from Kalahari saying "Thank you for the payment" email on Friday.

Thats what i dont understand, i also have that email from Kalahari thanking me for the payment - why would they do that if they didnt receive the money? Also FNB states that if any fraud was suspected the funds would have been returned immediately - up to now the money still isn't in my account

Unless you think they have an issue with stock? I am going to make this a huge issue as i saved over 5k on my order with the goods we bought and i want my goods!!
 
I think FNB had allot of people to call on Friday, my wife was also called when I used her card to buy her laptop. It was verified and the order proceeded.
 
An update: So after Kalahari/FNB blaming each other and waiting on each other, sent an email to both of them with the facts as given by each of them. Order now says "In Progress"

Kalahari now claims no authorisation was received from the bank - the bank says the funds are authorised and have left my account

Kalahari now says the order is already cancelled and they cant do anything - they wait 2-3days for authorisation and its not even 2 business days that have passed since payment was made

this is total rubbish

Same ***** here, hated uses kalahari in the past due to poor service and delivery times, seems they just as bad several years later. Items on hold pending payment confirmation.

I did buy a new keyboard and notebook! Just haven't had the time to transfer all necessary information to the new notebook. Once that is done I will start using the M key :) That way you'll understand me.

Haha, play nice now. All he needed was the letter 'm' in many posts. Back on track now, that is really pathetic from Kalahari!

IIRC many individuals were saying the vouchers weren't working any more and Kalahari took it upon themselves to cancel orders as they see fit.

Contact your banking institution if funds were indeed taken from your account ask your banking institution for the trace number/authorization number that way you can pass this information to Kalahari and their accounting department can trace the transaction!

Kalahari should implement OTP whereby your banking institution sends you an SMS with a OTP(ONE TIME PASSWORD) in order to process the transaction! I was quiet surprised how easy it can be to commit fraud on Kalahari! Dion Wired and TakeAlot both ask for OTP!

Too many orders were processed on that day and their accounting system wasn't fully operational...

No complaints on my side whatsoever Kalahari have delivered everything without any hiccups.

Hope you folks do come right
