Zomato Complaints & Reviews

We placed an order through zomato order number is[protected]; it was an ultimate bucket from kfc. We kept waiting for order delivery since last 30 minutes and after 30 minutes they told us that kfc rejected the order but when we checked with kfc they told us that zomato cancelles the order themselves. We made an online payment and we requested for refund they told us that we need to wait. It is such an agony that we first waited for the food and now we have wait for our own money customer care executive who spoke to us was rude and acted more of a robot than an active sensitive human. This is a worst website to place an order. Guys just uninstall this app these guys fool you specially when you make an online payment.

I am writing this complaint regarding one of my order placed on 21st Jun 2019 from Biryani Blues.I have never experienced such a bad experience from Zomato earlier.Due to some technical glitch from your end, the order was placed twice and the money got deducted from my account. I have made an order amounting to 1627.30 rupees.Just after that I immediately called the Biryani blues outlet and asked him to cancel the order as there was some error in the server while ordering.The person asked to contact Zomato for the same.I called the outlet directly and the guy there informed me that he has not received the order and within seconds I saw that the status changed to "Food is being prepared".
This is extremely sad that Zomato having such a big name does not have a customer number to contact. I struggled getting the agent on chat, as to which I had to answer few of your objective kind of questions.After getting the order cancelled, the agent told me that the amount will be refunded and to send a mail to [protected]@zomato.com. The agent confirmed that the money deducted will be refunded because there was some technical glitch faced by zomato at that time.
I request you to kindly refund the amount or else ask your agent to refund the amount who so politely informed me that he will refund the big amount from his pocket.
I do not understand as to why the customer should suffer between your so called policies and why zomato is not having a customer care number for resolving queries. The contact email id([protected]@zomato.com) is completely useless as I could'nt find any satisfying reply from there end.
I request you to kindly work on my complaint as soon as possible.

Order placed at 7.40PM and cancelled within a minute at 7.41, due to change in plans, on chat support they said to drop email to customer care they'd help with refund, till day I'm waiting for the refund. They've totally unexpected, and unfair trade practices and exploit customer's trust, this is not the first time I've faced issues here.. kindly help

Worst service ever experienced with zomato back to back two days. I ordered some food on 28 june 2019 from
Downtown granny's dhaba
Sector 20, chandigarh
Order number: [protected]
But no one came for delivery, we ourselves had to go to the restaurant to collect our food and in the billing delivery charges were their.
Again on 29 jun, 2019

Food was ordered from the same place, but no one came for delivery and we had to go ourselves to collect the food and in the bill delivery charges were added.
For what reason zomato is working if we ourselves had to go to collect our order.
I don't think so i will continue my association with zomato, not only this i will warn people and make sure people in my known don't take your services.

Hi,

Order #[protected] is being shown as delivered but i didn't receive the order but payment was done online.
I called up the rider ph :[protected], arshad but his mobile was switched off.

I contacted your customer care but got no help, they told the rider has switched off his mobile (Attaching the conversation and also location of the rider when it is being shown as delivered)

I have used this app a lot of times but at least 4-5 times i have ordered food and after waiting for a minimum of an hour in each case i have been told my order is cancelled and the amount will be refunded only after 5-7 working days. If they cant delivery why the hell do they accept the order in the first place. They cut the amount for the order immediately but then cancel the order and refund the amount only after 5-7 working days. They make people wait for their orders hoping to get their orders and then after all the wait they say it has been cancelled and may a times that has caused the other restaurants to shut due to which the person ends up remaining hungry because of the screw up of zomato.

I have ordered from KFC unfortunately my phone number don't response. I go to KFC with in 20mnt I collect delivery boy phone number and I call him but he do very bad behavior with me he said he don't know about my order because my phone number don't respond. I have one question why he don't back the order in KFC why he don't wait atleast 30mint for me...why he ate my order.

ORDER NO [protected]
My order has Not been delivered by the restaurant FIRANGI BAKE in Secunderabad. Its cheating and pathetic service and not expected from ZOMATO. Despite speaking twice with Firangi Bake call center they said of refunding amount after few days. I have ordered food, what will I do with refund?
The delivery boy has called me thrice and now says that he cannot come to deliver.
PL take action. I have been harassed and harrowed by your company despite pre payment including delivery charges.
Pl help

People pay attention please, if you dont want to loose large amount of money to zomato please read.
Tldr: zomato is asking people to pay cancellation fee for the order i already paid for and ate. Delivery boys are scamming people and customer care is ful of kinds who do not want to help you one bit.

I have been zomato customer for long time and i order from them here and there, 4 days ago i ordered from hong kong restaurant. The bill was for 690rs
After 30min app showed order is out for delivery, i called the delivery guy and he said its just an error and order is still being prepared. I said ok. Then when the food was still not delivered after 1 hour i called him again, he said still no food, i thought maybe they are taking time to prepare some fresh item (I can empathize with other restaurants as i have run my own restaurant, so i usually dont pressure them to hurry up)
After 1 hour 30 min called again and delivery boy said just got the food from restaurant and he is coming. After reaching my home the guy started rambling about the restaurant being late, i was really loosing my patience as it was hot standing in sun and my food was getting more and more soggy (Golden fried prawns get soggy very fast) i just gave him 700rs and said 10rs is tip keep it. I would have given more if the order was on time.
He gave me food and then to my surprise he asked me to put my phone on airplanne mode, i was like wth? He is so late and now he has audacity to ask me to switch off my phone, he kept requesting me, telling me that he will get paid more, also me and him will get bothered by the customer support. I was so frustrated at that point i just put my phone on airplane mode and showed it to him, he said ok sir now please keep it this way for 10-15min. I did not suspect anything as i was tired and just wanted to eat my food. I just went upstairs and ate the food.
2 days later i was watching a video on youtube about a day in life of zomato delivery guy, there the guy said we get 10rs for every good rating or something like that. I was happy to hear that and so i though let me rate all the orders i have got till now so delivery guys gets extra money.
When i opened my zomato order list to my surprise my order of that day was showing declined, i was confused as i already ate the food and paid for it, then how come it is showing declined? Then i checked the list and some of the orders i already got and paid for were also showing declined. I contacted chat and asked them why was it showing declined when i ate the food, restaurant did not get the food back and i paid for the food? The chat was as helpful as a monkey can be, the guy took 30mins of time to tell me that i will have to pay the cancellation fees as i rejected the order. I was dumbfound, the order was so late, the delivery guy was hell and now i have to pay cancellation fee for an order i already ate and paid for???
I contacted the email support and got the same bot reply from them, but one important thing was exposed during that, the reason for order rejection was that i was unresponsive to delivery boys calls and zomato customer care calls. Thank god i have call logs where i called delivery guy so many times and even when i got the order. But now i understand why that delivery guy asked me to switch off my phone. If you are as polite as me then when a person face to face asks you to do something, you would usually do it even when you do not want to do it. This resulted in me having to pay 700rs for an order i got and i already paid for.
The incompetence of zomato customer care is beyond any measures, simple solution for this was that they could just ask the restaurant if they got the food back. As i got the food it will have not gotten back to restaurant and hence proving my innocence, but no the customer care will send you automated replies asking to pay cancellation charges for an order you already paid for.
700rs is nothing, i would have just paid the amount to them if they had tried to help me instead of asking for money like greedy bastard without any though and without reading my mail even for a second.
My main reason for writing here is that i want everybody to know what kind of scam is going on here, just think if you ordered for a party and bill is around 20000rs, then you pay for the order and next day zomato asks you to pay for that order again as the order shows declined (Even when you got the order and paid for it) what would you do?
Be careful, i have already posted this on many social media platforms and have taken my business to swiggy, i advise you to either be careful or switch to swiggy as when your time comes these so called zomato executives will not help you one bit, they are kids working in call centers just there waiting for the paycheck to arrive. They dont have 1% motivation to help you. Worst customer service i have ever seen and the delivery guy should be in jail for scamming me.
The main problem here is he knows where i live, i am from a good family and if i complain about him and he is of criminal mentality think what he can do?
Will you take the risk? He looked like criminal and was accompanied by other guy, which was unusual as delivery guys are usually alone.
Think before you order next time as you dont know what these guys will trick you into.

This is in reference to my order dated 27th june # no. [protected]

The order was not delivered, the runner said he tried calling me, although he did not reach the address i had provided, i was waiting. When i saw the missed call i called back and the runner said zomato cancelled my order because i did not answer the call.

When i tried to contact the support to get the food back they said i have cancelled the order, where as i already paid in full via credit card why will i cancel my order.

I called the restaurant from where the food was ordered they said, it never went back to them.

I tried to locate the zomato centre where the food went back so i could collect it from the centre, i was denied that option saying they won't return it.

This is a ridiculous response if the client who paid in full for the order, delivery of which was not done by the runner, and the client is ready to pick it up from your centre was denied the pick up.

Moreover zomato now conveniently says i have to pay the cancellation charges.

I need the full refund of my order, which was not cancelled by me but by zomato. Also the runner confirms that company cancelled it and not the client.

A prompt response and refund is required in this case.

Thanks and regards

I ordered a pizza from dominos through zomato at 2:50pm, paid for it already and then after few minutes got a call from dominos that my pizza will be 45 mins late due to traffic to which i agreed but that was not anywhere mentioned anywhere while placing the order, the pizza arrived after 2 hours at 5:00pm, was tired of calling them and everytime a different person picked up and gave some unbelievable response, they also sent me a bill on my phone with wrong details of food and payment and created a fault in placing my delivery, but didn't accept their fault and only kept lying to me about traffic. They gave reason of traffic but in real my pizza was not even out for delivery due to their fault. I complained to zomato to which they just kept saying that dominos delivery is not under their management its just a delivery platform for them and this is how zomato reacted to my complain plus not even gave me the refund after asking, the food was 2 hours late, i skipped my lunch, what do they expect? Couldn't zomato cancel the order?? It was totally their fault but they chose to respond like this to it, also the dominos employees after frequently getting my calls got angry and speaking in a bad manner with banging their phone to end the call

I ordered food from zomato { not for the 1st time as well as i have ordered food from the same restaurent several times in the past to the same address which is already registered on zomato.
A lady called me and said that i have to travel 5 km to collect my order. I denied as it was suposed to be delivered to my house address. She directly said that if you dont come and collect then you will not get refund. I registered a complaint via support. I received a reply saying i changed my address and hence policy is changed so cant get refund. Its a clear case of cheating.
I have call call recordings and order page screenshots. Its not about money but they are cheating people because i also called the restaurent owner as he knows me due to previous orders made. He said they dont deliver it back to the restaurent

I have order from fresh n pure in buradi, one red sos pasta and two white but i have cancelled my order within a minute because my address was changed. After cancellation they have charged my full money. They directly told me no to give my money back and even said now ur food preparation gas began and still not delivering my food to previous address.

Please respond at the earliest to the my complaint against the zomato food based company.. I tried to call zomato customer care number was not connected... Please credit my balance as soon as possible.. Even with my colleagues also same thing happened still we believed and placed order it's a waste app..

Sir,
These people are refund my money since 11th june (The day when i ordered the food).
But i don't know how i haven't received any of it yet.
Everytime i contact them they tell me to wait for another 4-5 days or 24-48 hours (The same thing that they are taught).
Now what i don't get is how is it even possible that they started initiating my refund since 11th of june, then in enquired about it on 19th june, then 20th then 26th and then 28th where everyone of them said to trust them and this is the last time when i am facing this issue. But now i am fed up with what they are doing to me. It has been 5 times when they tell me to trust them and be patient till the date they give me.
Everytime i get a new date and then i wait for the date to come and i receive nothing.
The amount that is to be refunded is not a very big amount though but it was never about the amount.
Every single penny is worth something.
Please help me

At 10:31 pm i ordered my food from subway using zomato.. The time for delivery was 30 min, after 30 min i called the guy and asked him where is he since his location was very far from restaurant.

Order ids [protected] & [protected] i placed order two times, paid in advance, person did not put good effort to deliver it, did not contact, cancelled the order, charged me full amount and went back with food.
I am sure if it was not paid in advance they would try to deliver it but since they did not have to wait for payment, they just scammed me.

I am waiting for my refund for past 9 days. It is disgusting. You guys told me to mail you my concerns and you will solve the problem. But i believe you don't have the time to reply as well. I have heard a lot from you guys now. Now its hard to believe you guys. I am going to tweet about zomato and give worst feedback. And advice new customers not to install zomato. You guys don't know how to maintain your customers.
