Shell Market Refused to Exchange Wrong Cigarette Despite Their Mistake

November 1, 2024 1:43 AM43

On November 31, 2024, I was in Antalya Döşemealtı, where I often visit. Today, a friend of mine was checking out the bakery section at Hilmi Beken. I had a heart attack three years ago, and I have two stents in my heart. Since I don’t smoke, I offered to buy a cigarette for my friend. I specifically asked for "Parliament Slim," but the cashier—a man and a woman—gave me a different cigarette. I paid for it and handed it to my friend in the bakery section, only for him to say, “I don’t smoke this brand.” I turned around and said, “Excuse me, this isn’t Parliament Slim. Could you please exchange it?” I wish I hadn’t asked. The scolding I got, the lecture in front of everyone—they said they threw away the receipt, that exchanges and refunds weren’t allowed. Even though I said, “It was your mistake,” I left feeling deeply humiliated. I told them, “I’ll be filing a complaint about this.” Please check the records; I do not forgive them for any of this. I left the cigarette there and walked out.

"Are you prioritizing customer satisfaction? Well, I think people should read and decide for themselves. Following this post, Ms. Tuğba, an employee of Anka Mobil Tedarik Inc., called me and asked why I was threatening them. When I asked how I threatened them, she mentioned the email I sent to their headquarters and the post I wrote on Şikayetvar.com. I reminded her that when I called them before writing those posts to resolve the issue, their employee on the phone said, "You can do whatever you want, we can't help you." Then they offered to give me a 1000 TL discount voucher. My intention here is not to extort money but to rectify the wrongdoing. No one who loves this country can raise prices by 2.5 times within an hour at their whim. No one who loves their company and brand can keep a customer waiting for more than an hour with error messages during the purchasing process, and then, as if mocking, raise the price and ignore it. You are fueling inflation, people like you are fueling it. I stated that I wanted a discount voucher only for the difference in price, neither a penny less nor more; because I spent hours on your site due to the prices I initially saw during the payment process. She said she would speak to the authority and get back to me. She didn't. Five days passed, I called and said if you are going to resolve it, resolve it. She stalled again and did not return. Moreover, a rather strange situation occurred with the company owner. If this attitude continues, I will explain that as well. He probably thought I would share screenshots. We know these moves, I can explain without sharing, no problem. Thankfully, this site exists. Since there is stalling, exorbitant price increases, and strange tactics, let the whole world hear about it then. I hope you resolve this soon and that Anka Mobil Tedarik Inc. does not deliver another blow while your country is struggling with inflation."
