from numerous retailers - including
Saturn, Media Markt and Amazon.

eagerly
awaiting the arrival of the

PS5: Family confronts Amazon - with consequences
The picture from the surveillance camera reveals the mystery.
The
Amazon messenger
heaves a large box out of the delivery vehicle.
But instead of handing it over to the family, he wraps it up again a short time later.
Apparently the man had scanned the package to complete the delivery in the system.
The supplier
simply
wanted
to keep
the
PS5
to himself.

Jenni Walker then contacted
Amazon's
customer support team
.
The shipping giant offers her a
refund
and a
five-pound voucher
.
But that's not enough for her.
Your daughter then makes her way to the nearest
Amazon delivery center
to confront the employees with the situation.
The company then takes action without mercy: the messenger is fired.
Your opinion is asked!
Playstation 5: Amazon terminates employees after theft
Amazon
told Oxford Mail about the incident: “We have very high standards for our delivery service providers and how they serve customers.
The supplier will no longer work on behalf of Amazon. ”It remains to be seen whether the Walker family will compensate and whether their console will still be delivered.
Shortly after the release, Sony imposed a ban on thousands of PS5 players - with devastating consequences.
The shock is deep.
