Makro - *************

Today I went to Makro New Market to buy a fridge, washing machine and surge protectors. All the employees in the department were super keen to help me decide on what I wanted and wanted to sell me the most expensive fridge, saying that they can give me a special offer. Once I had made my selection, I went to get a Makro card and the warranties sorted. I was told by the salesman (Oscar) that same day delivery can be arranged which impressed me. When I went to pay my card declined several times so I called my banker who informed me that it was an error on Makro’s side. Makro refused to believe me or help me in any way. I went to Burgerking in the same parking area after and my card worked first time, with no issues so I know it was an error on Makro’s side (it was super embarrassing I might add). To add to my disgust (through trying to sort my card out and pay) a supervisor informed me that Makro does not actually offer same day delivery … and would not be held responsible for anything that happened to the goods if I did same day delivery through Oscar’s connection because it was not Makro’s transporter. I am absolutely horrified by the events of this morning. What a waste of time…I will never be able to trust Makro again!!!!!

Oh and I forgot to add, I needed to then wait to cancel the warranties since I did not actually buy anything. I waited 15 minutes before Oscar came back to help me, only to find out that since the card transaction did not go through nothing needed to be cancelled. Oscar still asked me how I would rate his service…

Lastly, he then called me on my cellphone after I had left (he had my details from the warranty) to say that they can assist with an EFT and do delivery after it had gone through…

Disgusting way to run a business if you ask me.

As stated in the first line of the complaint, it was Makro New Market
