Zepto scam? So recently Zepto is trying this scheme in which they add some money (usually 50₹) to your wallet and say it is only valid for the next order.

This keeps on happening where they expire the money and after two days it credits the same money which again turns out to be ‘unavailable’. Why even credit the money if they won’t let us use it?? 2 10 replies

At first, I was speechless because of the stochasticity of the event, but I politely told them that there’s a Cashify store on CMH road, and they could try there,... 4 6 replies
