Builders Warehouse keeps your money, worst treatment I have ever received. Don't shop there!!!!

We are sitting after 2 months waiting for a refund and they are still arguing with us. They REFUSE to give me my money back. We have had to drive there 4 times now with no result. Suddenly they have found a report that states we didn't put oil in the machine, which we know we did. When we asked originally for the report as to what was wrong, they didn't have a report for us. I am out of R1800, they are sitting with the chainsaw and all I want is a refund to buy another one from somewhere else. They have treated us unbelievable badly, when all that has happened, I bought a chainsaw that doesn't work, took it back, waited for 1 month because of their policy to repair, got it back, were told that it works and it doesn't and now I want my money back. It is a lot of money, besides the principle of the situation, We are the customer, their product doesn't work and they are sitting with my money. I will never shop at Builders Warehouse again and I will be sure to tell this disgusting treatment to everyone. I will also not stop writing reviews on all platforms until I get my full refund.

Thank you for your reply. However, I have been told this before, again and again and again. I have to keep coming back to your shop to get my refund, which I NEVER get because there is always an excuse and no one will just give me a refund!!! I do not have time to keep coming to your shop and no one actually knows what the other person is doing. They are all clueless and useless. Maybe this time, you will be honourable and give me my money back. Until then, please forgive me for my distrust and scepticism. I look forward to you organising my refund this week,
