All of them basically does the same thing. In my personal experience, I used to get a lot of failures on gpay so exclusively use phonepe now where failures are almost non existent. But I think it's got more to do with the bank you use UPI through.

Even credit on UPI is far smoother and zero failure rate on Phonepe Than Gpay. Gpay rarerly has problem with normal upi payments though.

Is it? I haven't used gpay much after shifting to phonepe. I used to have a lot of issues with it mainly with HDFC and SBI UPI handles.

What the absolute f**k is up with xpressbees?

 

Ordered some stuff recently. On the 26th of May, one order was delivered.

 

But the second order wtf

29th May - Out for delivery, could not deliver. "Address Incomplete"

31st May - Out for delivery, could not deliver. "Customer not available"

2nd June - Out for delivery, could not deliver. "Address Incomplete"

5th June - Out for delivery, could not deliver. "Address Incomplete"

6th June - Out for delivery, could not deliver. "Customer not available"

 

Weird sh*t. They could deliver an order a few days back, but now the address is incomplete. Also I'm not available. Funny considering my wife and I wfh. Not to mention I get the messages that its out for delivery around 8:30-8:45PM and then the undeliverable message around 9PM, every single time. SMH

 :wallbash:

Xpressbees are notorious for such practises. I don't even choose them as an option while booking via Shiprocket. 

Same. My return pickup from Tata Cliq is scheduled via Xpressbees and the damn pickup guy just keeps updating that pick-up wasn't possible because customer wasn't available.

Even Delhivery is sh*t.

You know what - this happens to me with BlueDart. The golden delivery boy. They are utter rubbish in my area. Anything else is miles better. 

Second level is sh*t has to be ATS. Both of them take the cake.

For all the hate DTDC gets, I believe it is still the best cheapest option available. Of course doesn't beat blue dart but they are 3 times more expensive. 

DTDC is not cheap anymore. I’ve used them frequently in the past, eventually their price went up and it’s now more expensive than Delhivery Direct.
Been using Delhivery past year or so, was cheapest with the 10% off discount coupon code, now it’s exhausted but still cheaper than alternatives for me.
People say shiprocket is the cheapest but I don’t find any option for shipping via personal account (not business). 
Never had any major issue shipping from my side from either company, but getting stuff delivered to me, yes! Delhivery can be quite rough and bad occasionally.

plus they don't give the deliveyr guy's contact and all. So whatever they saud, you don't have an option!

Side Note - Amazon / Flipkart have a delivery service too, never use them! My brother had ordered some HotWheels cars from a reasonably reputed dealer via a Facebook group, he received stones in the box. He didn’t record unboxing, I’ve told him make sure to record every important delivery.

Well got a message it's out for delivery again. Waiting for the next message where I'm either "unavailable" or my "address is incomplete"

 

I think I'm going to turn this into a saga and see how long we can keep this going 😜

Any cheaper way to get Disney hotstar at cheaper prices rather than paying 1499

Amazon gave me a coupon for ₹250 off few days ago. Just renewed. Also PayTM has occasionally.

Has anyone bought anything from ebay.com that ships from China? Trying to buy the MiBand 7 (since it didn't launch in India) but the seller backed out at the last moment and has begun the refund process. 

 

Also, I'm on the lookout for a non-watch type fitness tracker, but the good ones haven't come to India yet (MiBand 7/8 etc). Any recommendations?
