Railway Furnishers
Based on recent customer reviews, Railway Furnishers is facing significant customer experience challenges across multiple branches. Customers consistently mention faulty appliances, including washing machines, fridges, and televisions that fail shortly after purchase, with repair attempts often unsuccessful. A recurring theme is poor communication, with shoppers reporting unreturned calls, ignored emails, and lengthy delays. Many shoppers also raise concerns about billing disputes, repossessions despite proof of payment, and how instalments are recorded against credit scores. Staff conduct and a perceived lack of empathy are frequently highlighted as sources of frustration.

Worst experience ever. The experience is so bad. Poor customer service I would not recommend people to do business with them. More especially the Railway furniture store in Kwa-Mhlanga crossing, we took our Tv to be fixed and after 3 weeks of waiting, we went back to the store only to find our TV collecting dust in the store room. It was not booked to be repaired. We informed the headquarters about the matter and eventually it was collected to be repaired. It’s been 2 months now and no communication from railway furniture.mind you..we are still paying for our tv monthly.. but we not even watching it.

The sooner Railway Furnitures is flagged as a **** the better. I spoke to one of the consultants at the Tembisa Plaza store and he seemed to be more interested in getting the deposit i will pay than providing more information on the types of payment plans that they provide as a store. I have been given my Red Flag after doing my prior checks

Almost lost my son because of the robe they sent without *****ing the top part. The top part of the robe fell and hit my 4year old son on the neck. I called their line, you wont believe that their concern was to replace the top part that fell while my worry was my son. I am never buying from this store again. They dont have humanity. The quality of their products is not as strong as the ones they display at the shops.

I was called by a very rude consultant from railway furnitures today. She was rude and unwilling to listen to me as a client. I want to report her. Railway furnitures Tshwane mall, your service stinks and your consultants are disgusting. But all calls are recorded so I'll get mine.
