I would've given a 5-star, but now that delivery costs are so much higher for non-TakealotMORE subscribers, I feel like it is exploitative. TakealotMORE is not really a great option for me, since I only use Takealot once or twice every few months, so paying for a subscription is not a sound choice for me financially, and I'm being penalised for not being addicted to ordering from takealot every week.

Great App. I've been using this app for years now and it's never given me issues. Tech support is great an efficient. the UI is easy and not overly complicated. as far as online shopping platforms go, it's one of the best. 10/10 for me.

NO - RATING AVAILABLE. Order placed with in stock items, for an expected date, now suddenly there is no stock and my order get split etc. what am i to do arriving at a birthday without the gift? And delivery is just as bad, either too many boxes or items not even boxed, for everyone too see what you ordered, no privacy. But the advertising in stock and then delaying the order is very bad. So frustrating. In stock > order place > paid = cancelled order due to no stock - WTH???
