Dissatisfaction with a service.

I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the poor service I have received regarding a faulty phone I returned.

I purchased two phones online, and unfortunately one of them was faulty. I returned the faulty device on 29 December, but to date (12 January) I have received no clear feedback or progress update. I have been repeatedly referred back and forth between Vodacom and Makro Cornubia, with neither party taking responsibility or providing a resolution.

This situation has been extremely frustrating and unacceptable, especially given the time that has already passed since the return. I expected a reasonable turnaround time and proper communication, neither of which has been provided.

Makro, you have truly gone downhill. This is beyond frustrating. I escalated this issue on Monday, and it’s now Friday with no feedback whatsoever.

I bought this phone for my daughter, and she has now gone to boarding school without a phone. I cannot communicate with her because of your failure to assist. This level of service is unacceptable.

I am still waiting for a response and a resolution to my query.This delay is unacceptable and reflects extremely poor service from Makro Online. The lack of communication and accountability is frustrating and disappointing, especially for a company of your size.If Makro Online is unable to provide reliable customer support, then customers should be informed upfront. At this point, I expect an urgent response and a clear resolution to my issue.Please treat this matter with the seriousness it deserves.

I am extremely disappointed with the level of service I have received from Makro. The continued lack of feedback and failure to resolve my query clearly demonstrates how little regard you have for your customers.Despite following up, my issue remains unresolved and has been completely unattended. This experience has been frustrating and unacceptable, and it reflects very poorly on your customer service standards.
