Mumbai Man Gets Call From Flipkart Half A Decade After Placing Order That Never Arrived | Companies News
A report in the Hindustan Times said, Ahsan Kharbai, a Mumbai resident had ordered for a pair of Sparx slippers in May 2018. However his order was never delivered. And since he had opted for ‘cash on delivery’ he never chased the matter.
Sharing the status of his order history on social media platform X in a screenshot, Kharbai shared that the Sparx Slippers priced at Rs 485 were booked on May 16, 2018. The order details showed that the slippers were shipped on May 19, and the delivery date was May 20.

However, order was never delivered to him, while the app always showed “arriving today” status whenever opened. “Even now, the status remains the same”, he told Hindustan Times.

I checked up, the seller doesn’t exist. I’m sure this kind of issue neither buyer nor Flipkart will hold for long. Just a photoshop picture.

Explaining, what could have led Flipkart to contact him after 6 years, is due to him clicking on the order a day before while going through the list of orders.
“The customer care representative asked me if I did not get any call from the logistics team. He ended the call saying ‘we are very sorry for this sir,’” he told HT.
