Temu Is In Deep Trouble! Insiders Reveal Why It’s Game Over 05/09/2024

Are you hooked on Temu? Watch this and replace Americans with Australians. This can be applied to many things we buy because it is cheaper and encourages large companies (Think supermarkets) to source cheaper imports over quality local products.

Sometimes automation does not work or could this be an opportunity to improve customer service? When people ask me about good mobile phone plans that are of reasonable quality, coverage and price I usually recommend ALDI Australia because in general they meet these standards. A true test of a business or service is how they respond when something goes wrong as this can become more important than a cheap service.

I am not sure if the automation was intentional in this instance but it is a reminder to make sure that any systems you put in place are working as expected. I placed a support ticket and had it responded to and closed within hours without allowing me to respond to it, the responses were automated and my case was closed without a resolution and definitely with a feeling of dissatisfaction and disappointment as an ALDI Australia customer.

I had an issue with my account where the auto renew feature did not work after I updated my credit card and I lost all of my rolled over data ( a feature I tell my customers about when I recommend this service) and when I put in a support ticket regarding this I was told that it is in their terms of service that when you change or update you payment method auto recharge is turned off and you will lose your rolled over data. (I am telling you this now so that you don't get disappointed when your card expires and you have to update it.)
So this is just a bit of a warning that you may not get what you think you are getting and sometimes when things go wrong you may not get the outcome you want. ALDI mobile is still a value option for phone services but when you go off menu the support and service may not be what you are hoping for. Idon't want my customers to be disappointed by something I have recommended without knowing the details.

The image below shows the completion of the support request well short of the 48hrs response time they gave us to work with.

Maggie Beer and Hamish Blake have been caught up in a scam using their profiles to endorse diet lollies sold as keto gummy and similarly named weight loss treatments. AI has been used to create a deep fake video which looks real at a glance with the only clues being the unrealistic claims and the unusual language used used by Hamish Blake in the example. Would you spot this as a fake if you didn't know it was?
