Expires 30th September 2014
 
I've received my very last order from KDN: Although it took them another set date to actually deliver it from the initial failed delivery date.

You have failed me for the last time...

Thank you for the fish and goodbye.

I'm going to mail support and ask for my account detail to be removed. However I fear this might not happen looking at recent KDN standards of doing something if something is done at all.
 
We've experienced an operational glitch

Unfortunately we experienced an operational glitch that may result in your order

I expected nothing less :(
 
Still waiting for a return to be processed sent it back 24 hours after getting it, still sealed in the retail packaging. Sent it back on Friday, and they acknowledged receipt on Tuesday. They've basically implied that they can drag it out for up to 14 days after receipt. :mad:

OMG, I can't believe how seriously incompetent these guys are.

Yesterday at about 3pm I got an email which showed they had a 10 DVDs for R100 Promotion. I clicked the link and selected 10 DVDs from that category, but didn't get the discount.

I phone them, and they gave me some BS about the promotion still needing to be updated. I asked two different people whether I should place the order in the interim, and both were adamant that I mustn't place the order until the price corrects. In the meantime I was watching items disappear from my cart as they were being sold out.

By this morning only 6 of the 10 items I wanted remained. I contacted them again at about 8:15 this morning and explained the situation. I was then offered 6 DVD's in my cart for R100 :wtf:. In the end I decided to place the order and add a few duplicates to make it 10 items for R100 again.

Big f**king surprise the discount still didn't reflect and I had to contact them again. This time, I was told to place the order and email a copy of the special :wtf::wtf:. So the staff don't even know what specials they have. I placed the order and I'm still awaiting feedback, but now I'm starting to wonder if what I added to my cart was even worth R100.

If they had just allowed me to place the order in the first place, I wouldn't be so p1ssed right now. Getting nothing but empty apologies and lousy excuses at my expense.

I know Kalahari's service had been bad over the past few years, but wow, this is insane.

I am appreciating the existence of Takealot more and more everyday. When they screw something up, they really go out of their way to make amends, and I respect that.

I keep falling for their apparent bargains which end up either being rip offs or screw ups. :o

Maybe I've been suffering from some form of Stockholm Syndrome. :sick:

Dr Karl Ahari is doing an excellent job of curing me. :p
 
Their service seems really inconsistant, with some buyers having exceptionally positive experiences whilst others have the total opposite.

I frequently buy from them (and takealot plus others) when there's something interesting, and to date the service seems fine, with only the odd delay with some stock items. They do however keep me updated and the correct product does arrive. The longest I've waited for a product is 7 days.

I've also had to send back a few items o er the years and their refund/credit process seemed fairly standard to other online retailers; again never waited more than a week for a full refund/credit.

I admit that takealot has a few more things I'm interested in and I frequent their store more, however I'll continue to use both stores if the product is available at the best price (incl vouchers, specials, etc).
 
I don't know if this has already been posted, but I got this via email earlier. Haven't tried it either, they might be able to temp me back with a 95% off voucher but certainly not with this.

You either support **** service or you don't. When the majority closed their accounts then perhaps things might change, however if you don't then you are just saying to them that it is cool to do business like this.

This is why I closed my account as I just had enough.

The end.
