Empty Makro Promises

Bought a new Defy washing machine, there was no user manual with it in the packaging - used it with the shipping bolts still attached because Defy doesn't think far enough to add a small sticker saying "remove before use" - the machine started hopping and I stopped it. Been spending more than a week now for Makro to send a technician to see what's wrong with it because it smells like burning electronics when I switch it on. No feedback. Horrible that you buy something new, it breaks in the first day and the supplier just doesn't care. They are very happy and fast when it comes to taking your money, but when the stuff they sell you are broken and without parts (e.g User Manual) they just delay and delay.

I want a refund or an exchange at the very least - I will from now on recommend to everyone I know not to buy from Makro and to go to Game instead.

Good day Emile,
 
Thank you for bringing this to our attention

On behalf of Makro, I apologize for the service you've received, this is not the kind of service we would want you to receive.

We can understand that waiting a long time for your machine to be repaired can be frustrating and we would like to have a look into this for you.

We will be giving you a call soon to discuss this matter.

Kind Regards 
Makro Hellopeter Team

Best regards,

ES

Thank you for your prompt response - this is more like customer service, I hope it doesn't end here. It is not frustrating to wait for "repairs" as the machine is brand new, it is frustrating waiting for a refund or exchange - When a automobile dealer sells brand new car and it breaks in the first day, they don't arrange repairs on the car for the customer - they exchange the car with a new one. I don't mind spending more money for something of better quality as long as I get this machine out of my house because it will create future problems. Repairs is not a solution to this issue. Thanks.
