Big Company- Worst Service

<p>I have had my account since 2001 and I have always been a loyal client. However lately the service that am getting is so poor</p> <p>1. My account was changed from a 6month (no interest) to a 12 month interest bearing account without piror notice or authorisation. </p> <p>2. I have not received any statements for the last year and have been paying my account on the information supp**** by the cashier. </p> <p>3. I am being charged a club members' fee but I am not getting any magazines. Instead I get an sms to advise that I can collect my magazine at a store. Why must use my own petrol to collect a magazine that I am already paying for.</p> <p>4. To add insult to injury, we now have to sign an agreement to pay R22.50 service fee per month - For what service???? When I refused the cashier advised that my account will be closed within 3 months. </p> <p>ALL I CAN SAY IS - Better for me. There is nothing that makes EDCON unique anymore and better service and </p> <p>more choices can be gained from the Truowrths/TFG and other groups. </p> <p> </p>

We have received your concerns and apologise for the inconvenience caused by the matter. Kindly be advised that as per the system records the account is on a six months interest free plan and was never changed to the 12 months plan. Indeed club magazines are collected in store to avoid the post office strike as it inconveniences our customers and they are just part of more exiting club benefits that you may browse through on the Edgars website, with regards to the service fee , kindly be advised that you may not be charged without your consent and Edcon does have the right to action the account accordingly as advised in store. Please find the below reference number for your post ***/GO. We apologise again for the frustrations incurred

Kind regards,
