"Surprised News": Girl Accused of Delivering Goods to Wildberries Faces Charges
Wildberries Delivery Charges Cause Confusion Among Users
A woman in Omsk, Russia, was recently charged an additional 700 rubles for delivery on Wildberries, a popular marketplace. This unexpected fee came as a surprise to the woman, as she had ordered items totaling 2,500 rubles and had expected free delivery, according to product page information.
The extra charge appears to be a result of recent changes or bugs in the Wildberries app, where delivery fees are being charged even if product pages state free returns or deliveries. This has caused confusion among users, as these charges appear despite earlier policies or expectations of free shipping.
To avoid these unexpected delivery fees, users are advised to carefully check at checkout whether a delivery fee is being added before confirming the order. Another option is to use the in-store pickup options, which may avoid delivery charges, as the company supports pickup points and adjusted assembly order handling.
Staying updated on app updates and release notes is also important, as some changes in order assembly and delivery protocols could affect fees. Users are also encouraged to contact Wildberries customer support to clarify any discrepancies between advertised and actual delivery charges.
The exact reason for imposing these fees is unclear—some user reviews suggest it may be a new policy or a technical bug after an app update. No official detailed explanation is currently available from Wildberries' communications.
Meanwhile, the city of Omsk is implementing a new general plan. The details of this plan are not fully disclosed, but it includes the establishment of childcare centers and does not include the construction of trams. The reasons for omitting trams from the plan are not provided. "Om1 Omsk" is advertising its association with the new general plan for the city.
It is unclear how the new general plan will impact the city's infrastructure and its residents, particularly parents. The impact of paid delivery on Wildberries, which may be introduced in busy pick-up points or during peak shopping periods, remains to be seen.
