Amazon EMI Scam + Nord 6 Delivery Glitch?
Hey everyone, I’m trying to upgrade my phone and I’ve run into a massive headache with Amazon. I was looking at both the OnePlus Nord 5 and the new Nord 6, and something feels seriously off.
Issue 1: The "No Cost EMI" Math isn't mathing (The "Scam")
For both the Nord 5 and Nord 6, the offer page clearly lists a 6-month No Cost EMI with HDFC.
Nord 5 Offer Price: ₹32,499 (after ₹1,500 savings).
The Reality: When I go to the checkout page, the ₹1,500 savings vanishes. Instead, they add 17% interest, bringing the total to ₹34,129.
I checked the Nord 6, and it’s the exact same story. They advertise a "No Cost" price, but at the final step, the "savings" disappear and you’re just left paying a high-interest loan. Is anyone actually getting the No Cost discount at checkout, or is the UI just lying to us?
Issue 2: The Weird Delivery Restriction
I’m assuming the seller for both phones is the same (Darshita Electronics) because the names look identical, but here’s the kicker:
OnePlus Nord 5: Can be delivered to my home address without any issues.
OnePlus Nord 6: Shows "Not Deliverable" to my location.
How can one model from the same brand (and likely same seller) reach my house, but the newer version can't? Is Amazon restricting the Nord 6 deliveries to certain hubs, or is this just another glitch in their system?
Has anyone else faced this? I was ready to buy, but between the "No Cost" price jumping up at the last second and the delivery blocks, this feels like a total mess. Any advice or workarounds?
