Sep 17 Promotion

I have been a long time customer of Nandos and even though it has become an expensive extravagant we remain loyal customers. However what is most annoying is to see a promotion run by such a organisation for the benefit of a very few people. For any promo, you need to identify who are your most loyal customers and how u wish to reward them. It needs to fair to all and should never benefit a certain group of people. In your most recent promo R30 for a quater chicken chips with a cool drink, the deal is available to the first 100 customers only. Your most busiest times are towards the afternoons where people are rushing home from a long day of work or tired working parents that prefer takeout to cooking. Those are your loyal customers. However the only people benefiting from your promo are people who can afford to stand in a line as soon as you open your doors.To top it off, you only award the deal to the first 100 people. Here again it benefits only the very few. Please rethink your marketing strategies so that they are smartly thought out, to receive maximum benefit and focus on rewarding your most loyal customers. In this instance you have failed to do this - your loyal customers have been cast aside. For all future promos aim your strategies to those people currently benefiting from your most recent promo and kindly steer away from the honest, hard working people and parents that are your most loyal customers . . ..... for now.

A very unhappy loyal customer.

Btw I happened to also ask what proof there was that a 100 people had bought before me and the poor sales assistant had no clue how to answer me. She did go on to say though that customers were buying up to 10 deals at a time. Does this mean then that basically between 10 to 15 people and are getting the special each day? Ooh she also mentioned that sometimes it was the same people each day too. What a great promo Nandos.... simply brilliant!

No response received from your team except a phone call to advise that the complaint was received. And a repetition of your promotion's t&cs. You have obviously choose to ignore this complaint, hoping it will go away. Here's hoping that a lot if people have read the complaint and will think twice about supporting your brand.
