Tried to contact Swiggy, no option to call them directly through an app for already delivered food and the only option is to chat but they aren’t responding either!”
He further added that “He wants to sue both restaurant and Swiggy too for partnering with a restaurant which doesn’t practice general hygienic method like using hand glove or not allowing any kitchen staff with injured fingers/hands in the kitchen.”
Meanwhile, Balamurugan also added that he hoped he has raied awareness among other users of the app from his post. And he further expects from the aggregator to corrective measures.
However, Swiggy has responded to his Facebook post and mentioned that they wiill investigate the matter and will get back to him. However, responding to the complaint, Swiggy has suspended the outlet from its list.
