Staff not the face of the brand and store

Yesterday I accompanied my brother to Truworths CW to purchase a phone. The reason for him purchasing a new device was that the previous evening due to unforeseen events .<br> <br> He didn't feel like talking much so I told him I'll get things sorted. He decided to take the Lumia 640 priced at R2799.00 & he knew he had to pay in the difference but when we arrived at the pay point the consultant told him the device price was R1700 & he had to pay an additional R90 at which point he asked the consultant TWICE if she was sure & she agreed. Then afterward he was told she made a mistake and it was actually R2799 now we human we all make mistakes & I understand that but if a client questions a price its best you double check. There after the 2 of the most disrespectful rudest and ill-mannered staff came, <br> Cotha whom I was told is the supervisor who asked me question \Are you the customer "in a loud rude manner. Now whoever is in store I assume is a client regardless of them buying our not or even assisting like I was my brother "
