AI Review Summary

Based on recent customer reviews, Hisense presents a sharply divided picture. Customers consistently praise the call centre and named agents for courteous, fast handling of queries, and many describe fridges, TVs and washing machines that perform well for years. A recurring theme, however, is after sales friction: warranty claims declined over cracks or pests, repeat repairs that never resolve the fault, and spare parts that never arrive.

Top Strengths:

  • •Customer Service & Communication: The call centre is the brand's strongest asset. Customers repeatedly name agents such as Violet, Lebo, Maureen and Tidimalo for patient, knowledgeable help, quick job logging and follow up calls, though email channels and promised callbacks often go silent.

Excellent support received with regards to my Hisense fridge which was faulty after 20 months use. Calls were promptly tended to and updates given. Received a full refund for the product within 7 days after the fridge was uplifted. Thanks to the Hisense team for dealing with my issue professionally and promptly. Will definitely buy another Hisense product

Dispicable Customer Service and now I HATE HISENSE

Trying to buy a replacement 345mm glass turntable plate for a Hisense *** microwave? I cannot find one around Cape Town so I sent a Facebook Message to Hisence South Africa. Got an auto-response listing various email addresses, and guess what... Your message wasn't delivered to *** because the address couldn't be found, or is unable to receive mail. So I emailed *** at *** and guess what... Got the same reply. Useless bunch, to say the least. USELESS!!!
