***** and incompetence

During lockdown level 5 my Game account was used **********ly. Someone, somehow had purchased on my Game account to a value of around R7000. I had phoned Game as soon as the 1st purchase was made and while on the phone more purchases were being made. I was instructed to go to the police station to provide an affidavit to state what had happened and to send it through to the ***** department. I provided all the needed documentation as requested the very same day and sent it off. I did not receive a response at all to say that the account was being investigated at all, I had to phone in everytime I received a message to make payment and everytime I phoned I was told that it shows my account was under investigation and to ignore the requests. I was then phoned to make payment arrangements which I had told the story and that the account was under investigation. I still had not received any communication from the ***** department, I again sent another email to request an update and still had not received any communication. I was then phoned again to make payment this time of R300 and something rand I told the lady (who I might add was very rude) i was not going to pay anything until the issue was resolved. I then found out that they had taken the amount that was purchased fradulently off my account however left the service fees on my account. I again phoned Game and RCS which they then instructed me to phone head office, which again I did and was told they should have taken all amounts off, I was then put through to another person to rectify this. I was told it would be rectified and that I can get a letter to state that there is nothing owing I am still waiting. Game has now handed over my account to their attorney's and has V listed me for an amount of 300 odd rand. I feel that this is outrageous and I am very upset that no one has bothered to sort out this is when it was theirs to begin with and now my name has been v listed. Never open an account with GAME Stores.

Good day Angelika,

Please accept our sincerest apology for the experience and service you have received.

This is not the service we aim to give to our customers.

I will escalate this matter to RCS management and they will look into it and get back to you.

Again we apologize for this experience.

Regards
Mlindeli
