Defy no longer brand of choice

APPALLING SERVICE!!! I bought a new washer directly from Defy via Takealot almost a month ago and never been able to use it. It took Defy customer service 2 days to respond, then finally a technician (Mr. Sipho) arrived a week thereafter. He inspected the machine and confirmed the fault - the part would take another week to arrive. It’s been 2 weeks since. Followed up. Then he gives me his manager’s number and this man (Eduard Knuist) doesn’t even bother to respond! I have requested an exchange from Defy and been ignored. So I am out of pocket for an appliance I purchased which is not in working order!!! Next stop - consumer board?

Really? Still no phone call, no email, no Whatsapp 🤔…in fact, I attempted to contact Defy via all these channels before turning to Twitter and hellopeter in desparation. Takealot collected the machine yesterday and I am awaiting my refund 😤
