Seeing delivery charge for f-assured item on my flipkart plus account. Have seen it on couple of item and have been seeing it for past few days.  

Anyone else faced this issue?? any possible solution ?

Happening with two of my account. Showing free shipping on third one

Customer care informed me that shipping charges vary from account to account.

Flipkart is becoming worse day by day. Their return policy, cod charges, return charges, blocking accounts. If some one launches a website like amazon/flipkart as it was 3-4 years ago, he is gonna rule the market.

If jio mart has a more accessible customer support and a criteria for trusted sellers (like f-assured or amazon fulfilled) they can capture a good size of market

Still free for me but not expecting this to continue for long (Plus membership extension based on orders / sc earned in the past year or so)

Exploitation is happening at a very large scale, once any marketplace gains significant user-base/popularity they got to opt for similar polices (If they hope to survive for long). Until 2021, Amazon used to blindly trust customers, approve returns / replacements easily (even to scamsters who used to fake defects / loot parts - No inspection & pick-up agents are noobs) but now they've learned their lesson - Doesn't block accounts but started denying replacement/refund for many dispute scenarios like Wrong product / missing parts (after 1/2 complaints initial hassle-free returns)

I feel Open-Box delivery policy is the best thing FK did in a while (hope amazon adapts the same very soon), even the return charges seem justifiable (if they stop considering cancellations as returns) + Category-wise restrictions.
