[Resolved]  Flipkart — OD[protected] Expected Delivery - 31st October 2020

Dear Sir/Madam,

Greetings for the day!

Despite my attempts to try and talk to some senior executive in Customer service and make the point, it seems the "TECHNICAL ISSUES' always stop at the customer service executive.

I have been given false assurances till 11th Nov that the product will be delivered and the same have been continuing now for the next date 18th Nov.

I have been asking for a simple and logical (as per my humble common sense) question - kindly provide me with the TRACKING ID where I can track my product and know that it is actually on the way.
The TRAKING ID[protected] Tracking id is incorrect)provided or is in records with your team "DOES NOT EXIST" . So, either the SELLER or the COURIER PARTNER is selling you lies and I am the one suffering here.

IF YOU CANNOT TRACK IT, ASK THE SELLER TO SEND THE REPLACEMENT, BUT DO NOT ASK ME TO WAIT ANOTHER 7 DAYS AND THEN DO THE SAME EXERCISE OVER AGAIN!!

I AM EXPLORING ALL AVENUES TO GET THIS ISSUE ADDRESSED BUT HAVE FAILED SO FAR!! HOPE THERE IS SOMEONE WHO SEES THIS EMAIL.

Regards,
KRISHNA

Flipkart escalation team contacted me today at 15:00 hrs 13 nov, and told me to cancel the order and place a new order in its place. The product will be delivered at old price.

Only catch - i cannot cancel the order and they will take 4 days to find a solution for that. So, the struggle continues...Will post updates.

Dear Sir,
THANK YOU FOR YOUR KIND EMAIL BELOW AND APPRECIATE YOUR RESPONSE.
It seems the matter is not that easy to resolve. I cannot CANCEL the ORDER at my end and am at mercy of your customer service executive who has promised me to move it to the escalation team, in spite of me sharing your email as an attachment. 
So, first thing - the ORDER HAS TO BE CANCELLED AT FLIPKART's END as I DO NOT HAVE THAT OPTION. The SELLER policy is clear that once the ORDER has been placed, the customer cannot cancel it after 24 hrs once shipment has been done. (PLEASE SEE THE EMAIL ATTACHED - THEY WILL HELP ME BY 17th NOV TO CANCEL THIS ORDER ?????)
Regarding the refund and bank details:
Name: MURTY KRISHNA MARNI VERA VENKAT SATYANARAYANBank ACCOUNT NO:[protected]IFSC: ICIC0000258
I hope this issue is sorted out on an immediate basis and not wait until 17th NOV now just to cancel the order. 
Regards, Krishna[protected]

THE FLIPKART was finally able to cancel the ORDER after much follow up and complaints on 17th Nov. It was agreed refund will be processed to a designated account.

They further management to screw it up and sent it back to the CREDIT CARD which has been since discontinued. So, now taking up the issue with the banks.

The complaint was escalated to the CEO ESCALATIONS TEAM, yet they managed to screw up on each and every level - first non-delivery, then cancellation took 3 days, then REFUND was processed but into wrong account. So, it has been a suffering all through.

The problem is that there is no single source of resolution once the complaint has been escalated and everyone from every desk keeps responding with different information and status. This non-coordination leads to confusion within their own organization as well ensures that the CUSTOMER - suffers even more.
