Cashier attitude

So I went to Jet-Maponya Mall yesterday to exchange my nieces shoes and I as I arrive at the till the cashier tells me "Uzobizwa" With an ample amount of attitude of course,I replied with a "sorry? and" she repeated "Uzobizwa" and I responded with I came here because I had already heard a "next" otherwise I wouldn't be standing here. As I decide to Walk away a male cashier (Nkulee) asks that I don't not go back in the queue and She asks him who called me and he then says it was him,he then pleads with her to do the transaction. So she does! I was so upset! My emotions were running wild! I don't understand how a person/ people can take their jobs for granted in such a difficult time and the unfortunate lack of respect there is amongst black people
No apology, no remorse just attitude and just bad customer service, I believe the cashiers name is T. Ngubane according to my receipt. It would be nice if people actually respected their line of work and deal with their unpleasant attitude privately. Many people with the right attitude and energy are deserving of these jobs than those who just take it for granted. I hope the store will improve its quality of customer service.

No new Jet store cards available

Good day, I have been trying for the last three months to get a new Jet store card as I was told that the old card does not work any longer. This is very frustrating and unfair to the customer. I pay my account every month on time via EFT because the card does not work but I am not allowed to purchase anything in store. I would like to know when your Wynberg Jet branch will be getting the new cards. I go there at least once a month to check and get told next month. I was there again today and the sales assistant said maybe next year. This is totally unacceptable. I would like to know what's being done to rectify this issue so that one van get the new store card.

POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE (JET)

I am seriously starting to wonder if the people at JET just so happened to "leave the planet" during COVID. They don't know what it means when you tell them you are unable to make full payment but have been paying half due "from the maintenance money I receive for my child." This is met with "Yes, but you are still in arrears."

People have lost jobs. People are relying on delayed UIF payouts. People have received a portion of or nothing of their income. One would think that Jet would have empathy for those in this situation but this company appears to be run by people who have a "don't give a sh*t" attitude.

Months that I paid more than I should have, I never got a thank you. When I never received an income month end (not even a warning from my employer), I immediately sent a mail to Jet and paid half instalment. Over the past two months I receive calls DAILY and sms'es DAILY from Jet and all I do is repeat the same story over and over again.

Two weeks ago one of their customer service officers called and explained to me that I could access the insurance I pay on my account and that she would send me a statement to see whether I indeed have the insurance. Two weeks later I'm still waiting and still the calls keep coming. Yes, I'm sure I can get a statement online but has anyone else tried doing this? It's like trying to pull an infected tooth from a rabid dog's mouth. The fact that their customer care number reflected online - 0860 113 639 - is not operational and the 0860 111 881 number has that annoying voice telling you "they will tend to your call shortly" but yet it doesn't get done.

When they tell me to "go into a branch to make arrangements" the branch then says, "No, you must phone customer care." So here I am, frustrated beyond belief and still faithfully paying over the minimum payment.

Today I dropped the F bomb with the poor girl that called me about half an hour ago. SHE phones ME then tells ME that SHE wants to confirm that she is talking to the right person and starts asking me security questions then reminds me the call is being recorded and so we launch BACK into my stuck gramaphone recording telling her that until I am earning a full salary again I am STILL using money from my child support to pay JET. Her response? "Yes but you are in arrears and need to pay ...." F bomb drop and call dropped.

JET, a call from a customer service officer - who keeps her word - would be GREAT! Clearly my mail to you has been "recycled" and you aren't recording calls otherwise you would know that what you are doing borders on harassment!

Nobody is running away "with your money" but people are seriously gatvol with Jet's attitude. As a store that was facing liquidation a few months ago, one would think you would learn a lesson from the likes of Woolworths who have been PHENOMENAL with the challenges facing everyone during COVID.

SHAME ON THE EDCON GROUP!! When this account is settled, you can kiss by a** and my business good-bye!

Enough is enough!

ACCOUNT BEEN PAID

I have settled my account according to my last statement. Still a receive statements monthly showing the full balance outstanding. If I call the call center number with the various options my balance is R40.00. I need a paid-up letter urgently. There is no option to talk to a agent directly. Proof of settlement was forwarded several times without any success of acknowledgement.

I really need assistance.

Replacement card

Hi all

I am not happy with the card replacement process. My mom lost her card 2 weeks ago, she blocked the card and went to get a replacement however none of the staff members were able to assist as they advised her that they don't know when they gonna receive the cards. Secondly she wants to continue to pay her account but she cannot because she doesn't have her card. Thirdly, her cellphone insurance approved her claim but she cannot get her phone due to not having the card.

This is not fair for my mom and she has been a loyal customer, she doesn't deserve all this.

Is it possible for her to get a replacement card? When is she going to get her card? and Where can she collect her card? Can her card be sent to Maponya or bara mall.

We urgently need the card.

Your assistance will highly be appreciated.

Edcon No Customer Service at all

I have never ever experienced such bad service, if you can call it service at all!!

I have never skipped a payment on my Edcon account, I have even paid the amounts due ON TIME during lockdown. But every Friday I get sms's stating that I must please pay my account - when I got my statement, my Thank U balance says "Contact Us" and my available balance says "Contact Us". What nonense. But what frustrates me most is the fact that I have been sending emails for the past 2-3 weeks to the Edcon Customer Relations email and the Accounts email to clarify this matter - give them the 48hr turnaround time as per their read response.... but up to date NO FEEDBACK. Not an email, not call...but still sms's saying that I must pay my account.
I have noted that I am suddenly a Club Card member and there is a policy on my account that I am paying for that I do not have any record of. Even asked for these policy documents or proof where I agreed to these additional "expenses" but again... NO FEEDBACK.

I can now clearly understand why Edcon is taking hammering at the moment - it is because there is no Customer Service at all.

I will think twice before spending my money at Edgars / Jet in future.... SAD SAD!!

ID FRAUD

I contacted Edcon accounts and ID fraud department last week and spoke to Thebogo first. He advised that the person that will be able to assist is not in but i can send an email to her. Vanessa Ndaba will be able to assist me with my ID fraud request. I sent several emails to Vanessa but haven't received a response. I then called again on Friday, 08 May 2020 and spoke to Thato, she advised i need to call back again today, 13 May 2020. I called the Fraud investigation team on 086 066 6446 again today only to get a COVID19 response and that their office is not operating at this time. Im not sure why some people are allowed to work from home and others not. I URGENTLY need to resolved this fraudulent transaction against me.

I have been listed with Jet for not paying an account. I don’t have a clothing account with Jet or any other clothing store.
I managed to get the relevant account in question from Experian Credit. I then reported the case to them and they supplied me with a reference number. I believe this fraudulant account was opened at a Jet store in Namibia and i am in South Africa!

I need someone to get back to me ASAP in order to resolve this issue!

Handling of accounts during lockdown

To my shock I was contacted by lawyers regarding my Edcon account this morning. Please note: I have not been contacted by the Customer Service department but by lawyers! I find this highly unacceptable. My cell phone number had to be provided to them by the customer department so they have it.

I also never received any statements via email with Edcon's banking details and options for payment during the lockdown. I do not even know how much I am supposed to pay.

This is a despicable way to treat customers who had been with Edcon for years always paying accounts on time. The only time I had a problem before is when a mistake was made with a payment in an Edgars shop. This dispute was handled in a very unacceptable way too and I ended up paying the same installment twice.

I don't think Edcon will survive the lockdown, not due to the economy, but due to terrible customer care!

I HAVE BEEN TO THE FOREST HILL STORE AND HANDED IN AN AFFIDAVIT AND CERTIFIED COPIES OF MY ID AND CARD TO THE FRAUD DEPARTMENT. I NOW WAIT FOR JET TO CONTACT ME REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I HAVE BLOCKED MY CARD SO NO MORE TRANSACTIONS CAN BE MADE AND HOPE THIS AMOUNT IS REVERSED AS I WILL NOT BE HELD L
IABLE FOR PURCHASES THAT I DID NOT MAKE.

Good Day,

I would like to put in a complain regarding the bad service which I experience these past 3 weeks. I Had two cellphones that is insured and that had been reported lost. the ladies at CNA NORWICH BUILDING, ST GEORGES MALL, CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA, 8001 assisted me with the claim of which they email and fax both documents to insurance for claim, on Tuesday 10.12.2019 only 1 cellphone was approve because the insurance consult only received the 1 cellphone document then the CNA lady send for 2nd time again. On Wednesday 11.12.2019 still only the 1 cellphone appear to be approve which was the Huawei y600 valued R2000 but not my other cellphone Samsung z200 values at R1100. then the lady at CNA told me that I must first pay the R200 excess for the approved claim of R2000 and then other cellphone valued at R1100 will be approved on there system of which I actually didn't want to do seeing that both claims was done together but never the less i paid the excess fee and got a replacement cellphone on 12.12.2019. Today 13.12.2019 i went back regarding my other claim still nothing was done the lady at CNA struggled to get through to insurance and told me there's nothing she can do and she don't know what to tell me.

1. What is the next step from here.
2. if the device I selected is less then the value of cellphone insured can I use the balance to cover the excess amount or will the balance be paid to me or will it be deduct form my edgars account.

kind regards

Jet - Lebowakgomo:Terrible Customer Service and Unfair treatment

I am writing this review on behalf of my mom, I am disgusted by the service and attitude she gets from Lebowakgomo Jet store because I am liable for all the cost implications.My mom is old and I think sales assistant from this store are taking advantage of her , She bought Samsung Galaxy A2 Score on 24 June 2019 , this phone did not last a month it was having charging problems . She took it back on the 19th of August 2019 and from my village to the mall is over 50 km /h . They kept the phone until 20 september without communicating to her , I personally made the follow-up twice without getting assistant.They always tell me that people who are working with the cell phones are on lunch or they left for the day.On the 20th of september she took the phone and on the 5th of November the phone has the same problem, She took it back again and they don't want to replace nor refund her.

Samsung is a good product and i doubt they sold used phone to her , I am not impressed at all.

Till to date there is no communication hence i am writing this complaint to you.

I want refund for my mom or replacement for better phone, I am hoping you will resolve this urgently.

Addressed to Edgars head office

This is to Credit controller Roberta Henry,
I explained my situation as to why I did not use vouches which were issued to me upon opening of my account.

Firstly, the claim was against current purchase, secondly as mentioned I could not use the voucher at the store as the till assistant claimed that they could not view my vouchers nor can do anything unless I produce the voucher number. Which I did not have on me at the time due to not having Data and I would also like to state that I don't have the best of phones.

Thirdly, I am not a small account holder and my purchases are far from small.
it escapes me how your department can incorrectly bill me in one month
and expect me to except it but when I am querying small amounts of discounts,
then well I am unreasonable.

In the same Jest I would like to mention the service at your branches have seem to
deteriorate ever since a change in your sign.

Perhaps a surprise walk in customer features should be considered,
as well competitive stores seem to be more helpful.

ID fraud

I lost my ID book last year mid February and I ended up going to get a new one around March after getting an affidavit saying I lost my ID that's why I need a new one. After a few months that's in June I think, am really not sure, jet started calling me telling me I owe a certain amount of money, just then I told them I ddnt open any account so I don't owe jet anything, the lady I was talking to advised me to go to the nearest Edcon store to lay a complain. I then went to a store near my town and told them what happened and they let me fill some form and told me they will call me in a few days to inform me what is to happen next. I waited for their call for a week then I decided to go back to ask them if the matter is solved. When I got there they told me thiers nothing they can do because the ID that opened the card is the same one I have which ddnt make any sense to me because I did say I had lost my ID book and I had to make a new one so the one I have is a new one. I fail to understand even now what they mean because an ID book is always the same weather you make a new one or an old one. I then told them if they can make further investigation because am not going to pay R6000 which I know nothing about, they gave me the store location that the card was opened at and told me maybe if I go there they will help me. I went to the store and told them what happened but they told me they can't help me I even asked them if they can check thier cctv recordings to see if I even went to thier store that day but they told me they only keep records for 3months. Am really very disappointed with the way jet people are handling this issue, right now I can't do anything it has messed up my credit record and it's affecting me so bad because I can't buy anything on credit.
