Consumer exploitation by Reliance Jio Mart
Ambani has come out with an excellent business model for his online delivery platform-Jio Mart. The items available are definitely at discount from market price. The customer places the order and compelled to pay in advance. He is assured delivery within 48 hours. Then will start the wait for at least a week. During this time, the customer's money is used by Jio to purchase items from the market for delivery to customer after a week. In lieu of the discounted price, the customer finds one or two items missing. The delivery boy will assure customer that the amount will be refunded in next 2 days. That's it. If the customer calls customer care and he is lucky enough to get his call answered, they will assure that the matter will be escalated to concerned team. His mail to customer care will not even be acknowledged. Same fate awaits him if he decides to tweet or post message on Facebook. They definitely are cold blooded traders!
(Based on experience. One may verify it by ordering through Jio Mart app at his own peril) more
