Game sells non working Hisense fridge

Bought a hisense fridge online. Delvered after two weeks. So dont believe their 2 to 5 days promise. The fridge doesnt cool down below 10⁰C and my foot went bad. Now battling to get them to repair it. Promises are broken with getting a serviceman. In the meantime I am without a fridge after paying R5200 for this torture.

Hi Willie,

Thank you for reaching out. 

I'm sorry, your fridge is not working as it should and that you're still waiting on a technician to be out to you. This is certainly not the service we strive to provide. 

I have escalated your complaint, and you will be contacted. 

Kind regards
SG

Yet another day of empty promises. Game only reply on Hellopeter without any action. Should have done my purchase elsewhere from a reputable supplier.

Another day without any response from Game after more promises. I had to buy another fridge now. I will not forget how I am being treated.

It is clear that you only react on Hellopeter complaints. That shows how pathetic your customer service is. Late delivery, non working fridge, complaints are not attended to, I seek help through Hellopeter, I must buy another fridge, still no reaction.

Hi Willie, I'm sorry, I've checked, and the above correspondence was done via email with the agent handling your query and not from Hello Peter.

So on Friday 13 the technician arrives to repair my fridge. I have had this non working Hisense fridge from 21 August 2023.
This so called technician took his gas torch and heated the filter dryer body until it almost melted. I told him he now destroyed the filter and all those burnt internals are going to block the gas passages. I phoned his supervisor and the technician was told to replace the filter. It is obvious that this technician is not qualified to work on fridges.
He left and said he was going to purchase a new filter.
He left the fridge running which I stopped, but it has obviously now contaminated the whole cooling system.
This so called technician never returned on Friday, but on Saturday morning he called saying he was sorry he did not return.
I told him I waited all of Friday for him to return and that he should tell his supervisor to send someone that is qualified. Im so sick of Games incompetence and now Hisense is following suit with their after sales service.
