#bankingfail disappointed with @AxisBank's customer care and lack of accountability @ Dumdum branch. Despite repeated followup, corporate account remains deactivated for 2 weeks, directly impacting business operations. Level of negligence is unacceptable. @AxisBankSupport

Disappointed with Amazon! Ordered a famous five-boxset, but received cheap Archie. Invoice is from @Flipkart ! How can AMAZON fail at basic order accuracy? Feels like cheating customers out of their expectations. @amazonIN , please do better! #AmazonFail #CustomerExperience

@Flipkart @amazonIN @penkeepersoham @DebrajMoulick1 Look at the invoice, it is a flipkart order! So, @amazonIN , are you working for @Flipkart now?
