Now, Jumia wants her to accept the laptop like that..
“After paying and opening the package, I found multiple scratches on both the body of the laptop and its screen. I logged the laptop’s Product ID on the official HP website and discovered the warranty had expired. The Styrofoam in new products was not there,” Adekojo told FIJ.
“I immediately informed the attendant that the laptop was not ‘brand new’ as advertised and that I would not accept the product. He directed me to call the customer care line to initiate a return and refund process officially. Unfortunately, my first attempts to reach the customer care number were unsuccessful due to connection issues, and I had to leave the collection centre,” she said.
