************ dealings by Mr Price Sports NORWOOD

I went to Mr Price Sports Norwood branch, to return an item purchased previous week, for a refund as the size was incorrect and had managed to buy the correct size at Mr Price Sports MOA. When I visited MOA branch I did not have the item to do an exchange. I used my cellphone to tap/pay for the initial purchase. I brought the original till slip and the unused item for a refund. The manager, identifying herself as Ntomifuthi insisted on the card I had used for the purchase even though I had explained that I did not have the card and I had used my phone instead. She then said she could only issue me a gift-voucher, which I am not keen on. I called the customer care and some Michaela said I should get the store to call their Area Manager. Ntombifuthi claimed to have called her Area Manager already, some Angie Mohammad and she also insisted on a gift voucher. The Ts & Cs on the back of the till slip clearly state: "We'll gladly exchange or refund...within 90 days of purchase, as long as they are in an unused and in a resalable condition. Please bring original receipt and tags". NOWHERE it is stated that even though you did not buy with a physical card, it is needed for a refund! Section 56 of the CPA also states the customer may choose the type of refund, meaning I cannot be FORCED to be given a voucher

Dear Lebogang 

We do apologise for the inconvenience you incurred and for the team out in Norwood not explaining that the card would need to be present to insert into the machine , if it was a credit card purchase and if it was a debit card , then the store should or could have given you cash. Please note that this is the Company policy, however if  the matter has still not be resolved , kindly go back to Norwood with the card used and your refund will be processed without issues. 

Sincerely
MR PRICE SPORT
