Makro refund

I have been waiting for a refund from makro for over a month now, every call centre agent that I call tells me a completely different story. When I ask for them to put me through to someone in a higher position they cut my calls! There are thousands of people who are waiting for a refund from makro and I believe that they are a ****!

I have been on endless calls and emails with makro staff.

I was advised by someone in the market place operations that my refund request was processed, which is a lie!

Because when I phone the call centre they state that the my case is still pending and awaiting approval.

I have been waiting for a refund from the 26th of March, we are basically in May!

That is absolutely pathetic!

From the finance department to whoever is involved, are of no use at makro, and I am going to take this case far.

Quick to take money but can’t approve a refund!

All of the apologies are not making the situation any better, I still have no money in my account.

From the 26th of March EVERY SINGLE PERSON tells me we have escalated the matter and I should wait 72 hours, how many 72 hours have passed since the 26th of March!

So it took Makro from the 26th of March up until now to locate my query to your finance department?

That’s absolutely insane.

I am supposed to meet with my lawyer tomorrow regarding my case, seeing that my case is sitting with the finance department I will give it until Friday before I take it further with my lawyer.

I would like for my refund to be approved and released as I have spoken to many team leaders and managers who gave me endless promises that my refund was processed!
