Unhappy Samsung customer

I bought a brand new fridge/freezer in July 2020 and cost me R18000. 00 7 months later and fridge broke on a Saturday. Reported it same day. The Wednesday a technician came out and said the fridge has a leak and all gas out. He now has to submit a report to Samsung to see if they are going to fix the leak or replace it with a new one. A brand new fridge should have been sent to me immediately. How can a 7 month old fridge that cost so much be worked on and not replaced? Its now Thursday and marks 6 days of no fridge plus I lost all my perishable goods in the fridge and freezer. What hurts my heart is that I believe in Samsung and all appliances I buy is Samsung and never had a problem. This service is not okay, there should be an after hours technician available on Standby as we waited till Wednesday after reporting it Saturday. The report was submitted yesterday and I must wait for a decision? The same energy that the store had to take my money should have the same energy to deal with this urgently. I want a brand new fridge and freezer immediately

It's now 12pm and still no one has come to sort the fridge out and we all know that you don't have after hour service available so now I will sit without a fridge for the second weekend. Day 7 and still not sorted.
If you think paying R18000. 00 for a fridge is a joke just remember we work hard to buy goods.
Samsung I am deeply disappointed.
