Pathetic client service

Ordered and paid for a replacement battery for a Hoover portable vacuum in Dec. Was quoted 7 - 10 days. Took into account the holiday season, so gave them some grace. Since beginning of Feb. they don't reply to emails, threats, phone calls, nothing. Pathetic. A R550.00 battery is going to cost you a lot more in reputation and future sales. Answer your emails, and show your clients some respect! And can't get anyone responsible on the phone if you get through. Just the sales people who lie thorough their teeth!!!

Amazing, 2 minutes after I place this complaint I get a call from them saying my part is available for collection!
Still not impressed........

And so the poor service continues....I collected the part, went home, stripped the machine, and found they have supp**** the incorrect part! Really?!?!?!
Their level of incompetence defies all reason....and don't even try to get hold of anyone higher than the person at the counter - I don't think they exist. This battle is far from finished - and I plan to win!

Looking through other complaints against this supplier, I see this is a standard response (probably automated), and that their response time is 27days!!! Brilliant - obviously take their customer complaints seriously!

Update - the company sent me an email on Friday afternoon, stating they cannot get me the spare part as required, and will give me a replacement unit free of charge. It's not the same series, but will do the job. So thank you to them for this.
Still, overall, not a good experience based on the battle to get this resolved. To Sindi Letlape, thank you for your assistance here.
