“Bought couple items from Snatcher only to have about 12 of these items missing from my delivery, I been fighting with back and forth email without any solution, the agent Linda is arrogant on the mail and there's absolutely no customer care. I wouldn't recommend this online shop to anyone. Terrible experience!”
“I ordered a product and the delivery was very fast. But I wanted a refund, since the product I ordered didn't work. It has been 3 weeks and no refund has been made. I sent emails and even called and I'm still waiting on my refund.”
“This is bull…., I read a lot of stories similar to mine! Ordered items, waited and heard nothing, phone call goes to 2nd in-line then jumps back to 5th….etc. Emailed a month later just to be told items out of stock, would have refunded… but jip you guessed it, NO REFUND! Now the question is How is it possible for this “company” to keep on snatching people’s money and get away with it! How can this be stopped. Coz we are all complaining yet nothing gets done! And so it goes and goes and they enrich themselves by stealing from others. I can kick myself for not reading this before making the mistake to give my money away to scammers!”
“Poor service from Snatcher. I should have read the reviews before I ordered from them. They sent me the wrong item. They were supposed to solve the problem within 24 hours, it's now 360 hours without any feedback from this company.
I will never order from them again.”
“I am afraid this is a bad review about Snatcher.
In a nutshell: extremely poor service - no refund when is due - extremely poor guarantee.
2 Episodes:
1) Ordered and paid for 2 items. Delivered only one (second one out of stock). Snatcher offered me a credit voucher, which I did not want (I shall never use it). I requested to get refunded on the Credit Card I had used to buy the product: cannot be done. I then requested to have my money credited into my bank account by EFT: request ignored several times. Just no answer. Very bad.
2) Electronic product of poor quality. It worked as expected for just 2 weeks. Then dead. Requested to Snatcher: repair/replace/refund. The answer, after requesting lot of details and photos about the problem: we shall contact supplier and get back within 48 hours. Never got back to me, in spite of many requests.
Conclusion: unprofessional, poorest service, careful to what product you buy, careful with guarantee issues.

“This company is fraudulent. It does not send you the products you ordered, and claims they are out of stock. It does not refund your money.This is a scam, do not shop here.”
“I received a refund of R212.69 on 25 January, a shortfall of R90. (After countless emails I phoned and spoke to a nice gentleman). I phoned again on 25 January to ask for the rest of the refund and he said it will be done within the same week. It is now 28 February. I phoned again but now only music plays on the Snatcher phone nr, telling me I am nr 4 in line, then 3 then two then one - then 4 again, then 4 again so I put the phone down after about 20 minutes. Please sort my refund

End of business was 5 January 2024
It is now 20 January 2024, 6 weeks after I have provided my banking details for a refund.
I started shopping more and more with Snatcher instead of Takealot but this experience will make me think twice before shopping with Snatcher again.”
“You such a scammer u deliver one item that,instead of the tab that I ordered u deliver headphones, and you claim that u deliver my things,when I send them the proof they don't even respond such scammers I will never buy anything from them.”
“I am waiting now 4 months for my money back (refund) I am sending them every week an email and now they don't even respond to me. Snatcher refund policy is that they claim to refund you within 7 working days, but it is now 4 months. The products that I order from them was out of stock and they decided to send me "alternative" products that I didn't even agree to, and the "alternative" products was used and broken and incomplete. I send it back, but now I struggle to get my money out of them!!! Empty promises every week.”
“Placed an order on the 17th Feb and still no further updates,rather pay alittle extra somewhere else then have to deal with horrible turnaround time.”
“Been waiting for a refund since November , they didnt have the courtesy to let me know that the items i ordered was out of stock , they just sent me the rest of my order , wasnt until I queried them that i was told they out of stock and they will refund me …. Well here we are almost four months later , endless emails and empty promises for that refund .”
“These guys simply will not refund you, it’s a total scam, and they should be investigated and closed down!! It now been over a month of email to try and get a R70 refund, and the excuses and run a round are pathetic…I accept they have stolen my money..a cheap lesson no refund received”
“The quality of some products is terrible. The return/exhange policy is very harsh. I wanted to exhange an item wrongly ordered and I did not even receive a reply when requesting an exchange.”
“They are scammers. Pathetic customer service. I've been given the runaround after numerous emails and phone calls. Same story as everyone else here...they're waiting on their supplier. To date, I have still not received my order. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM SNATCHER!”
“Snatcher is a scam who are operating some sort of a pyramid scheme through their refund process. They do false advertising to scam customers and you have to wait forever to get your refund and you'll be lucky to get it. Never buy from Snatcher as they advertise what they dont have only to cancel your order after you have paid and you have to wait patiently for your refund whilst they use your money to pay those on top of the refunds waiting list. Never buy from them lest you become a victim of their scheme. Snatcher and their staff are day light robbers.”
“My mum ordered a white airfryer from Snatcher, assuming that it's a reputable company. A black airfryer was delivered instead. My mum returned the product and requested a refund, as Snatcher did not have the colour she wanted. It is almost 2 months and she still hasn't received her refund, despite numerous emails sent to the customer care department.”
