Would not recommend Tsonga to anybody. There is a lot of other shoe companiea with better service and after sales care. Please also emply a oerson with good customer skills for such a job.sal

By far the worst customer care I have received from Gerhard. Bought 4 paira of shoes, one pair is effective. Contacted Tsonga about the defect and got the most insolent reply from Gerard. Having to return the shoe on my expense with couroer and then pay again for shoe to be couriered back to me upon repairs. Tsonga is alread not a cheap brand. Imagine javing to pay a couroer twice as well. Making it the customers problem.

Hi Yolande,
We have reviewed your complaint and I am sorry you feel the process has been handled poorly. For clarity we have not requested payment from you for the courier fees and the collection of the product was arranged by Tsonga head office. The re-dispatch to you is also being done at Tsonga's expense - not yours. In your initial correspondence with our customer care I can see that the lead times for repairs were not communicated to you and this was an oversight on our part. We did ask for both shoes to be returned and you only sent one foot which delayed the process. The completed repair is now in our dispatch and will be dispatched by the end of the week. We were only notified of the issue on the 26th April and the return was arranged on the 2nd May so we are well within our repairs policy.

Good day

Thank you for the reply. You wrote in your reply that you didnt request any money for courier fees but it is contradicting the initial email sent from Gerard regarding the different options of couriers and stating specifically in bolt letters that it is for my expense. I was informed that you dont have stock at the moment to replace the shoes and need o repair it. Nowhere it was stated that I have to sent in the other shoe which are not faulty as well. And why didnt you enquire about only one shoe being sent? ? Reason for sending the shoe which are fine as well. It didnt need repairs. If replacing the pair of shoes, I would understand the reason for sensing both shoes. Please see content of email sent from Gerhard Sewsanker
