Mastercare / Candy Putrid Service!

I wish I had read these reviews before purchasing my Candy Washer/Dryer Machine. It seems to be a common problem. I logged my issue, the technician came out, ordered a part, and weeks later, there has been no update. I have made numerous calls for updates, only to be told they will get back to me, and they never do!

Terrible service from Sifiso. Excellent service from Damian. The original agent hasn't bothered to give feedback at all. But still, I can't use my washing machine and am paying extra to use the laundromat (during COVID wave 3!!!) and now I will have to handwash the family's laundry (in winter) as we are all sick with the flu!

My machine is less than 2 years old and now I firmly believe I am in trouble as this machine won't last long.

Thank you for the response Tania. It is appreciated.

Is there an SLA in place with your supplier?
How is priority assigned to tickets that are logged?
What is your escalation mechanism with them?
Is there even a process in place for escalations?

I understand, thanks to Damian, that the issue is with the supplier. But MasterCare needs to then follow up as per the SLA (I really hope there is one) and hold them accountable. This lack of customer service and feedback translates very badly for your company.

I hope to hear from you soon, and be able to use my washing machine again.

I would like to send a huge THANK YOU to Tanya and Bietca from MasterCare for going out of their way to have this resolved. It was unfortunately a delay on Candy's side, and both Tanya and Bietca have gone beyond the call of duty to sort out this matter. I am very impressed with how quickly and efficiently they picked this up and ran with it. Thank you ladies for your impeccable service! You have completely changed my view!!
