Cash customers discriminated against when compared to account holders

<p>I simply asked a sales assistant at the Sandton City Truworths branch if they were able to obtain a different size garment from another store that had the size I was looking for and was told that it is only possible to offer that service to account customers!! </p> <p>When speaking with the less than attentive, rude manager on duty this was confirmed even when I questioned why account customers who are frequently in debt recieve greater services than a risk free cash customer, she had some poor excuse about the risk of loosing the garment in transit, though they do interbranch transfers almost daily and are quite able to request any garment for an account customer ... but she was so disinterested it wouldnt have mattered what I had asked her. Upon trying to call the store manager later, their phones just simply ring!!</p>
