Discounts not honoured

Smart Shopper, for all its benefits, has not been honouring some discounts/vouchers due to me. If a voucher is loaded on the card, printed proof, not expired, etc, then the discounts should be honoured. Particularly these personalised vouchers, which successfully motivated me to buy something I wouldn't otherwise be buying. When I got to the till, the supposed discounts were nowhere to be seen. The staff at Douglasdale Pick n Pay are friendly but helpless, as Smart Shopper seems to be a different business or something, and the only resort they have is to phone the call centre.

I have a previous complaint of R50.00 due to me, and now this one, which is around R20.00. But there is just no follow up to honour these.

On 29 August I finally got a response, asking for more information, which I duly provided the same day. I haven't heard from them since. Needless to say, I'd like my R70.00 please, plus whatever sort of apology is reasonable these days.

(Remember the days of an overflowing gift basket when a company realised it had mistreated one of its valued customers!)

Good day Joseph,

Thank you for choosing Pick n Pay and taking the time to write to us.

We have done an investigation in to your query and have been advised that 5000 smart shopper points equivalent to R50 was loaded to your smart shopper card on 21.08.2017.

We will follow up on your other voucher and advise once feedback is received.

We value you as a Pick n Pay customer and welcome your feedback to improve our services.

Kind regards

Vanitha Venketas

Hi Vanitha, okay that's good but I have had zero communications to let me know what's happening.
