MAKRO,MAKRO,MAKRO!

I returned an item to Makro on the 16th October and still awaiting refund. I have been calling for 3 weeks to the callcentre and everytime fed the same NONSENSE. What is amazing is that you cannot speak to their finance department. An email has to be sent via their call agents and then there is a turn around of 48hrs for finance to respond, furthermore you as the customer cannot be copied in on this email. WOW!!! So I have been waiting for 2 weeks for their finance department to respond...what a turn around time!!! It is an absolute disgrace that customers must wait for their money and get treated in this manner. I will also be going to radio 702. customer service is a joke,so easy to take peoples money but to return it is a neverending story. I checked my phone bill and thus far just on contacting Makro customer CARE (LOL) NO CARE I used over R400 in airtime, overall time on calls 260minutes. I am just sooooooooooo frustrated

They made the refund into incorrect card apparently AFTER they were provided with a bank confirmation letter and my ID.
Sorry but these works have been totally ***********.
They need to issue an immediate payment manually as it totally unacceptable that I have to wait for another almost 10days depending on when they actually do make the correct payment!!! So far we are on 33 DAYS!!!!!!

lol your finance dept is not active at all. I still have not heard back from any representative. I just get email saying it was refunded 12th November BUT LIKE HOW MANY TIMES MUST A PERSON S****FEED AND ADVISE THAT IT WAS PAID INTO AN INCORRECT CARD!!!! That refund in 2 days time will be a month. What a joke. Anyway I informed in writing to all contacts of Makro and Mass mart that I could find and included them in my email to Carte Blanche to investigate.
