Trying to cancel an extended maintenance plan last week that I cancelled within 24 hours of agreeing to it telephonically. I phoned customer care this morning and spoke to a consultant that seemed very impatient with my request and I was told that I would still be debited the first monthly installment as their cancellation period is 14 days. After that it would be my responsibility to reach out to them for a refund. If I understand the Consumer Protection Act correctly, they are legally forbidden from taking money from my account to collect funds once I have submitted my cancellation notice within the cooling-off period.
Edgars is one of my all time favourite stores, but I’m starting to dread going to their beauty department. One can no longer take your time shopping as the staff are so overwhelming and when you do ask them for help, they tend to send you to multiple different people for assistance. I hate not being able to shop at my own time and feel like I’m being rushed to make a purchase.
Am I the only one who’s been getting worse and worse service from FNB? From not updating home addresses from years ago across accounts or still using phone numbers that have been out of service for almost 10 years for services like their cardless cash withdrawals, trying to speak to a support agent is nearly impossible. For anyone thinking of going with FNB or even upgrading to FNB Private Clients, don’t. Not the first time I’ve had to complain about their lack of support.
For years I have been receiving consistently outstanding service from Megan at the FC Kimberley branch. She’s assisted me with multiple flight and accommodation bookings to China, Mauritius and various locations in South Africa. Megan works inside and out of business hours to communicate with airlines, accommodation hosts and myself to ensure smooth sailing. I’m even trusting her with the bookings for my destination wedding!
I've been a SOHO Sandton City client for 2 years and was super happy when they opened up a location in Rosebank which is much more accessible for me. I recently had my first visit there and was lucky enough to be assisted by Kwanele who I remembered from the SOHO Sandton City spa. Service was outstanding as always and everyone was incredibly welcoming. Hope to see this branch gain as much popularity as the one in Sandton!
Having more and more issues with FNB lately. I enquired about money being deducted from my account last month, the agent Zane was rude and ended the chat before my issue was resolved. I logged a complaint on the app, but nothing came of it. Today I again requested assistance via the chat again as my mobile data was not working and I still have data left. The agent Lesego advised I do a sim swap at a branch (which seems a bit extreme), and I had to suggest to the agent to reset on their side (as this has happened before with my FNB Connect sim) and now it is working. I am not sure if they are understaffed, not properly training their staff or if FNB does not care about their customer service anymore, but sadly after 10+ years of banking with FNB, I am considering moving to a different bank.
I recently cancelled my vehicle insurance with Discovery to move to another service provider. I was very professionally assisted by Prudence and Shamanie who assisted in making this a smooth process. Great customer service, which is why I will continue to do my banking and medical aid through Discovery.
Great initiative and really good product. Sadly the service is so disappointing. - Drivers often cannot find our address - WhatsApp support responses are very sporadic. - We’ve had occasions where the meat or fresh produce was off, and had to send more than one message before getting a response. - When going on holiday and I clear my basket, money is still deducted from my account. - This week we were billed for products that were not shipped, but were added to the shipping label. I’ve cancelled before, but because it’s such a promising initiative I decided to give it another shot. Unfortunately these issues keep happening and I don’t think I will be ordering from Ucook again.
Worst customer service, been trying to cancel my Pet Insurance for weeks now. Sent multiple emails to cancel, but keep getting automated emails saying “one of our friendly consultants will phone you soon”. Only yesterday someone (not a super friendly consultant) phoned me to SELL me a new policy, and when I asked if she could help me cancel my policy, she advised me to email [email protected] (again) which I did (again), and still nothing other than an automated response.
Nathanuel Phillips explained all of the options and add-ons for my pet insurance clearly. He also did not try to force me into a plan/add-on that I did not need which is one of the main reasons I tend to not sign up for something. Thank you so much for helping me so quickly and efficiently!
