Zero customer service

I called Samsung on Monday to get assistance with my oven that isn't working. They did some silly "troubleshooting" over the phone with me, then said a technician would need to come out. They said 3 working days. Since Wednesday afternoon I have called every day and sometimes twice a day to try and get assistance and at least get an answer as to when someone would come out, I was told each time that someone would contact me soon to let me know when they coming. Well it's now Saturday afternoon and still no call. I've got a full house family to feed and no oven to cook in. The service is shocking and considering that majority of our appliances are all Samsung, I'm really disappointed. What a shame for such a decent brand.

Clearly my complaint isn't important enough. I still have zero assistance. Absolutely pathetic. I will be taking this matter further and seeking assistance with this from the consumer commission.

So after clearly wasting so much time, they still feel it's not enough. A technician called me now to ask if he can come out on THURSDAY!!!! And he will do a fault report for Samsung and then send it off and see what they say. Absolutely unacceptable. So how much longer should I actually wait before I can cook again. If the technician takes 11 days to come out and do his report, then I don't want to know how long it's going to take samsung to read that report?! Then perhaps another 11 days before the technician can come out again to do the repair. Can someone please just help me. This is unfair and ridiculous!!!

Today we "celebrate" 2 weeks of poor customer service. Day 11 a technician came out FINALLY!!! Today is day 15 and zero communication. When I call the call centre I just get more frustrated as they pass the buck... it's the technical departments fault or it's the systems fault that there's no feedback Logged. So ultimately as usual no one can help me. More importantly it's been 2 very frustrating weeks of not being able to cook in an oven. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!
