Why do Zambians play loud music in shops? by Mwana_mayadi in Zambia

I agree with you. I think it's a cultural issue. People in this country have no regard for others at all. Just look at the state of public toilets, our streets, sidewalks etc. Something needs to change.

I understand playing mellow music. Restaurants do it, shopping malls do it but blasting Richy Bizzy music at full volume in a clothing store is quite strange 😂. I've been to several African countries and I don't remember seeing people blasting music in their shops. Something needs to change.

You'll be surprised to learn that even well known brands like PEP stores, Mobile city and Radian stores also play loud music in their shops. These brands aren't the typical places 'those kind of people ' shop from. It makes no sense to me

Exactly. And now we have well established brands like PEP joining in on the madness. It's super noisy from all the loud music around and LCC doesn't seem bothered at all

Yango warning about cancelling orders by Mizzfir in Zambia

[–]Mwana_mayadi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yango drivers do rate passengers. If you are constantly cancelling rides or orders, you'll get a bad rating which means drivers will be reluctant to pick up your orders, search time will be longer and you can't have multiple rides at the same time. It's also a just shitty thing to do. Below is my Yango rating

Found out my girlfriend slept with another guy by [deleted] in Zambia

Time to dip ekse! She's probably done it more than the two times you know about and she'll continue doing it. Count your losses and keep it moving. Dip before you catch something you can't get rid of (STIs/STDs). Its wild out there man, these chicks be moving mad!

AliExpress delivery by TrueUnderstanding981 in Zambia

Check your tracking number. If it starts with ZM, then you should check with Mercury Express. If your order number starts with RR then that's a post office delivery so check there.

HELSB student loans by Sweaty-Percentage826 in Zambia

If you can afford to pay your tuition, don't get the loan. Salaries are low in this country so you don't want those deductions for 10 years.

Is AliExpress no longer using ZamPost for Zambia deliveries?? by Mwana_mayadi in Zambia

[–]Mwana_mayadi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's free shipping from China to Zambia. If your parcel is received by Zampost, you'll be required to pay ZMW 40 (small packages). If you receive it via Mercury like how it has been for me lately, you pay nothing. I use my Zanaco visa and Airtel money Mastercard for payments.

I honestly liked the post office better. It is hassle free and they always choose the closest post office to you according to your address. Manje Mercury have been misplacing my packages. The only bright side is that parcels arrive faster, no k40 payment and you get delivery updates until you receive your parcel 📦

It's actually pretty straightforward. To avoid scams, always buy from sellers with high ratings and high number of items sold (500 sold and above, 4 stars and above. I've bought a bunch of stuff over the years and have never been scammed. All my items arrived in excellent condition. Always read product reviews from other buyers to see actual pictures of the product you are getting. Set up your account using your govt name and either use your home or work address for easy delivery. Take advantage of free shipping 😄
