Bad Customer Service

I handed in my phone for repairs on 12 August 2022 at Foschini, Mall of Africa. Up until 25 August I did not receive any feedback. On 25 August, I visited the store and the cellphone assistants was not in. I left a message on the same day that they should please inform me of the status of my claim for repairs. The next day I receive a sms that my claim was submitted to Monitor. Thus my phone sat in the store for almost two weeks with nothing happening and they only did something because I left a message with a co-worker. On 29 August I phoned Monitor which is the insurer they use because I received a sms that info is outstanding. This info was submitted the same day and on 12 August, and I was informed the claim should now be approved. Today I call Monitor, because I received no update since 29 August, and I am told by Sade, they still need a copy of my ID, which I emailed to them. Few minutes later I received a sms that info is still outstanding. When I called again, I am told that the ID copy is not necessary, they will now lodge my claim. A full month since I submitted my claim to the store it is now only approved. If I did not do follow ups, I would still be waiting for feedback. My phone sat a full month in a store without anything happening, the store and their insurers are going from bad to worse. It is not the first time this is happening....

Reviewer Update
They closed my complaint without contacting me. Seems they dont know what customer care is, staff dont do their jobs and its of no concern to them.
