Re: ********** ACTIVITY AT LEROY MERLIN & KANDUA [***] - NO ASSISTANCE NOR RESOLUTION

ATTENTION: LEROY MERLIN IN ASSOCIATION WITH KANDUA

I have called on Friday morning (14 May 2021) and left a message for Kandua to contact me. No response. We have brought this to the attention of Leroy Merlin and Kandua since 4 April 2021. There is still not resolution to the client. It's now July 2021.

I called Leroy Merlin again on 17 May 2021, and my details were taken down. Still no response.

It's winter. My properties are incomplete but yet monies have been paid to your contractors that are so called "vetted, reviewed and background checked. My wife is an oncology patient and this is negatively impacting her health and wellness. Urgent resolutions are required. For ease of reference, please further detail on circumstances faced with your dishonest Leroy Merlin/Kandua contractors.

We have utilised your contractors based on the reputation of Leroy Merlin. We have since been ******, inconvenienced and ******** for monies and material.

1. Urgent resolutions required.

2. Kindly advise whether we can proceed on social media and the traditional media forums for damages and loss incurred.

3. We have been to and fro via emails, your website and WhatsApp for months now, without any positive action, resolutions nor refunds.

A) James Gideon Carpenter from Kandua ZIMBABWE PASSPORT NUMBER: EN437007 ZIMBABWE ID NUMBER: 59-067645L-59

DEPOSIT ****** OF R7200

Description He quoted for kitchen cupboards and STOLE my deposit. PROMISED TO REFUND BUT THEN BLOCKED me.

Feedback JAMES GIDEON IS A ***** AND A DISHONEST MAN. HE HAS ****** HARD EARNED MONEY. HE MAKES EMPTY PROMISES. TO TOP IT UP, HE HAS BLOCKED CONTACT WITH ME. IF HE REFUNDS MY MONEY, I WILL UPDATE MY REVIEW ON THIS PLATFORM. GIDEON I WANT MY MONEY. IF YOU DO NOT REPENT FROM YOUR SINS, YOUR NEXT GENERATIONS PAYS THE PRICE OF WRONGDOING.

Hey Vinothan,

We trust that you are well

We do sympathise with you and your family on this matter. As much as you came into contact with Kandua as our 3rd company that we have partnered with  to provide services for us, they're still responsible for  their own contractor issues or complaints. We did check with them with regards to the issue in question due to the the nature of our affiliation with Kandua. We had to play our part to consult with them on your behalf,  unfortunately Kandua did advise that this is a matter that is out of their hands as the companies and artisans that you were in contact with are trading independently and are not affiliated with them. They did advise that the contractor however can still use their platform for quotations as is the case with you, but then after the jobs and communications are taken and done separately.

We really wish you all the best with the matter and we hope that it gets resolved soon. 

Do enjoy the rest of your day
