Blinkit Customer Wants To Have PS5 Playdate With Delivery Agent; CEO Reacts

Albinder Dhindsa, the CEO and co-founder of Blinkit, made headlines with a groundbreaking announcement. Blinkit, in collaboration with Sony, unveiled plans to introduce the newly launched PlayStation 5 Slim edition to Indian gamers. With enthusiasm, Dhindsa proclaimed that customers in Delhi NCR, Mumbai and Bengaluru could now experience lightning-fast delivery of these coveted gaming consoles within ten minutes.

However, amidst the excitement, a light-hearted incident unfolded during a chat with customer support. A user, injecting a touch of humour, made an unexpected request. The user insisted that he would purchase a PS5 through the app but with only one condition.

He demanded that the delivery agent stay behind to engage in a game of FIFA with him. His intention? To hone his gaming skills and emerge victorious in future matches against friends. This amusing exchange quickly gained traction online, drawing chuckles from social media users. However, it was Albinder Dhindsa’s response to this unconventional demand that truly tickled the funny bones of the internet.

In the screenshot, when probed about the condition by the customer, he humorously insisted, “Only if the rider stays back and plays Fifa with me. I need someone to practice to beat my friends later. Bro?” Soon after, customer support ceased responding to the demand. However, when the Blinkit founder stumbled upon the amusing exchange, he shared it on X with a facepalm emoji, eliciting chuckles from social media users.

Reacting to the post, a user wrote, “Blinkit campaigns are getting ‘simplistic’.”

Another joked, “Hahaha sahi baat hain pls let the rider tag along for at least 1 game.”

“Bro you should seriously consider this offer, I would totally get another ps5 if the delivery person stays to play Rocket league or Genshin with me,” a comment read.

Another shared, “I mean his reflexes could be as fast and precise as his delivery speed.”

One more wrote, “Brother needs to wait for some time, because Blinkit never replies quickly.”
