As Flipkart took a dig at its biggest rival Snapdeal for not being able to find good engineers in the country, the former’s fashion portal Myntra.com witnessed a major debacle.
Myntra had set announced its ‘Mega Sale’ on May 30 and 31 offering a discount of up to 80 per cent on all products, but failed to manage the traffic as the app crashed due to some major technical glitches.
The e-commerce portal has now apologised to its customers by sending a letter stating the problem was due to technical glitches and how they will live up to customer expectations hereafter.
Keeping in mind customers’ buying patterns, Myntra moved to being an app-only portal earlier this month. Till last month, about 90 per cent of the traffic to Myntra was from mobile.
