What has happened with service delivery and integrity? At Makro Bloemfontein

<p>I bought a lawnmower and chainsaw at Makro Bloemfontein …I had it for less than 6 months and it just stop working.</p> <p>I took it to Marko Bloemfontein on the 28/05/2016 ,and I have never received any feedback what so ever .So on the 06/07/2016 I called Marko Bloemfontein and spoke to a lady who advised me that “the supplier did sent a communication to the Store(Makro) and the supplier/technician says in the feedback report that quote sent back to Store (Marko BLOEMFONTEIN ) to make payment of R 400.00 plus and that the supplier is still awaiting the payment and feedback .So I asked her to speak to the Manager in charge who was Johan (Customer Service Manager ) ,so I explained my story to him and that I need it back urgently .He said to call me back in 10 minutes .</p> <p>He called me back and advised me the bearings broke ,” hardware tools is not my field of speciality ,but if a lawnmower does not go on it means it’s the power “ (ja one can think how company’s wane make money these days ) . So I went by asking him, but was I advised or signed an agreement to that ,I was advised that your warranty does not cover bearings and customer is liable for any incurring costs, and If I knew of this I would NOT have bought your products and why did I have to wait till know to hear this ,he rep**** by saying so the sales people must tell you how to use the lawnmower and not break the bearings ?</p> <p>The unprofessionalism ,lack of honesty and integrity that customers have to be treated ,just because Marko Bloemfontein feels they will make the customer pay even if they have a warranty or not thing has been explained to the customer ,and when you asked a customer service manager like John can I speak to the store manager than you get advised ,he will not speak to you ,he will sent you back to me because I am the manager !!!!!!!!!!!! huh…</p> <p> </p> <p>To think ,I was on my way Makro Bloemfontein again this weekend to buy a few items including a trimer ,but Hell no… never again.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, we appreciate the time you took to report your dissatisfaction with the repair of the lawnmower handed in at our Bloemfontein store.

Kindly note that the Rolux supplier went insolvent, the unit has been repaired at our cost as we did not have access to a warranty repair agent and has been delivered to you yesterday.

We apologise for any inconvenience and trust you will continue to use our products with confidence.

Regards
