Customer Service? what customer service?

<p>On saturday the 15/07/2017 my brother an i proceeded to take out project car to renew-it in sandton. we were stopped at the gate by a security gaurd who in my opinion was rude, he said we should park on the road and wait for the accessor whom we had previously arranged to access the vehicle... the gaurd told us that we should park on the road and wait for the gentlemen to come as he went to get lunch, we did this, in that time the gaurd let in 3 cars after us, obviously putting them ahead of us in the line. the gate was opened and a truck waiting to pass was behind us. my brother jumped out the car and walked into the premises by means of passing the gate, and then asked if we could move the car in as the truck needed to pass, the gaurd became very aggresive and started speaking to us in his mother tongue, i assumed everything was in order and started the vehicle and moved it into the yard, the gaurd stood at the gate and continued to throw slurs and insults in his mother tongue! an elderly gentleman with a blue jersey and blue pants proceeded to walk towards my brother, my brother than told him we had an appointment with so and so accessor and he isnt in so we will wait. in the same breathe my brother mentions that the gaurd is very rude and unprofessional... the man who we found out is names Charlie and is the owner or the boss! started to swear at my brother, telling him that my brother must not tell him how to run his business, and he doesnt need our business and that we must take our "piece of ****" and leave, my brother then became irritable and told him, to calm down he was just expressing the way he is being treated, he was then told to take his **** and leave!.... THIS WAS SAID BY CHARLIE! THE APPARENT OWNER! furthermore he had done this in front of over 20 staff members and clients who was waiting in the car park! having this said, my brothert proceeded to jump into ouor vehicle where we could hear him telling the staff that these F***ken Koolies mustnt start **** in his yard... i feel this is totally unacceptable and refuse to be treated this way, we have given not only renew it Sandton, but deal very often with renew it Edenvale! to be long standing customer of the group and to be treated this way is unacceptable!</p> <p> </p> <p>this requires your URGENT attention!</p>

Since my complaint, I have had 1 call from Sheldon, with cell phone number ********** 457. who works at Renew-it Sandton! in the telephone call he was very aggressive and threatening, he said that i should remove this review because this is causing alot of ****. i then politely asked him to get Charles or Charlie to give me a call... he then ended the conversation by saying if i want to play hard ball we will play ball and cut the call on me!

Since then, he has called my brothers Boss and dealer principle to complain about my brother and in turn put his job on the line! Is this how renew it approaches complaints? Because Sheldon is now representing Renew It Sandton! And thus representing renew it as a whole!

The service manager is the one I am complaining about, namely Charles or Charlie and reverting my complaint to him will have no positive effect as he is rude and in my opinion *********** in all levels of service delivery! He basically took his bad mood out on my brother and myself, making us feel like common *********, and ********, case being defamation of character with racial slurs and remarks.

further to this! please ask Sheldon to stop with his undermining ways and below the belt shots as this will not be tolerated.
