MISINFORTMATION
Last week I received a call from an agent informing me that I am due for an upgrade and he raves on to tell me about all the wonder attributes of the Samsun A33 5G. I* received the phone today only to find that he CONVENIENTLY NEGLECTED TO MENTION is that the phone only comes with a charging cable and NO CHARGER!!!!! How ridiculous is that????????? Now I am expected to go and buy a charged out of my pocket. To say I am furious is a very big understatement.

27 Feb 2023, 18:01All good and well, it may be mentioned in your deal booklet, but I did my transaction telephonically and your agent should have informed me of this. But lesson learned.... you will NOT be duped like this again.
