Food delivery company Zomato is once again embroiled in controversies. This time the matter is about learning the Hindi language. A Chennai customer has alleged that he was labeled a 'liar' for not knowing Hindi. The customer says that an officer working in the company told him that he should know Hindi a little because it is our 'national language'. The customer tweeted about the dispute and shared a screenshot of the conversation with the employee. Vikas said in his complaint that one of the items he ordered did not arrive.
The customer said to return the money, the language issue is not my issue
In the screenshots of the chats shared by Vikas, he is seen arguing with the Zomato executive over the order. In this conversation, the Zomato chat support executive tells the customer that he has spoken to the restaurant five times but there is a 'language barrier'. To this the customer replies, it's not my problem. You get the money back as soon as possible.
