Makro customer service and product quality WORST EVER

I bought a Ryobi brushcutter on 20-01-2016 at makro vaal (card no ********** 7, till/invoice 38/774). I used it about 6 times in 11 months before it refused to start. I took it in for repair to makro vaal on 23-01-2017. It was kept in a store room under a table for almost 8 weeks before it was returned to me unrepaired. They refused to test it before retuning it to me and it has not started or worked since. I have taken it back for repairs again but they refuse to have it booked in for repairs, I have been struggling ever since I took it in the very first time for repairs to get it repaired so I can use the brushcutter I paid for. But I have now realised that as soon as makro gets the money for the products they sell they forego of their responsibility towards customers. They absolutely do not care about customers or the quality of the products they sell. A product will have a 2 year warranty but makro will not honour or stand by it. Absolutely the most pathetic service I have ever received.

Received a response that the complaint was forwarded to the relevant department, I even gave my email address but no response received. And as I said before again my point is proven that as soon as makro receives the money for goods purchased customer service stops, as they do not care about any of their customers.

ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC SERVICE

The complaint has been forwarded on the 8th and 22nd of January 2018 but due to the pathetic and non existing customer service at makro I am still waiting for a responsecand the warranty is only valid for 4 more days. Just goes to show how little macro actually cares abiut customers (ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AT ALL).

I have now subsequently notified Ryobi South Africa of the fact that Makro is giving their products a bad reputation due to the fact that warranties are not honoured.
