How could I get my refund
4 months ago
On November 8th i made a prepaid grocery order in flipkart for Rs.622 and delivery is said to be done on 12th November. But i didn't received my order due to some issue from seller side. I made a call to customer care and they told me to cancel the order and put a new one. But I'm not able to cancel my order. After that I made a call weekly to customer care to know about my refund and they replied that they inform the higher authorities. I got many mails from their different representatives with content that:-(a) put a new order / (b) need more time / (c) prescribed hours or day that the problem will be solved.... like this. I'm fed with this game. I know for everyone this is a small amount but for me this is my one day wage. What will I do?
