Mr Price Group / MRP Wrong price on site/store

I recently saw two types of black suede trench coats online on the MRP site. One was marked for R429 and the other was marked for R100. The detail on both were slight but considerably different. The R429 one had great sleeve and pocket detail and no shoulder detail, while the R100 one had great shoulder detail and no sleeve or pocket detail (it was plainer). I tried to buy the R100 one online but the site informed me it was only available in store. I checked the list of stores and made my way to it. I managed to find it (just one of the R100 ones amongst the R429 ones) in store (Fourways crossing). When I took it to the till, it also scanned for R429. I showed the salesperson at the till the screenshot and pointed out the detail but she said that it was still marked at R429. It must be noted she was kind and helpful. She told me the one I had in my hand was old stock and probably that's why the site had it for the price it did. I then took pics of the item to compare with the screenshots to put forward my case to the customer care. In my screenshots you will see, I have highlighted the necessary information and detail on the garment. I believe this is a case of false advertising.

Desired outcome: I would like be able to purchase the item at the price advertised.

Mr Price Group / MRP Mr Price Money account

Hi There

Below issue I have been having with Mr Price, they are now completely ignoring me and not resolving this matter.

This was mail 1 - sent to [protected]@mrpricegroup.com

Subject: FW: MRP MONEY MAR STATEMENT

To whom it may concern

It is with total dismay that I write this email to your company.

I tried linking my profile to MRP card and was told that that my account has been closed. Upon going into the store and investigating what was going on I was told my account was closed via a chat with one of your agents. The person went on to read me the chat that happened between someone and one of your agents (which by the way was supposed to be mailed to me that never happened). I asked what security questions was asked to verify that I was indeed the person that was on the chat and was told only id number and account number. Surely there has to be some security questions asked? A simple check of the cellphone number used to chat would havee verified that I was not the one chatting with your agent. I did not close this account and don’t understand how this account was fraudently closed.

I have a policy on this acccount that I have been paying for years (see below 360 Extended family option) that has also now been closed, which I am reporting to the underwriter of the policy as this is fraud. So what happened to all my premiums paid? I was told that the account cannot be reinsated. I have had this account for years and have been paying for years and now your agents closed my account. Surely there is a written procedure for closing accounts? Otherwise any fraudelant activity can happen on customers accounts as your agents have free rain. I am seeking legal council on this and will be reporting your group to the onbudsman and layig a charge as this is totally unacceptable.

I want to know when my account will be reinstated? Alternatively all my policy premiums paid back? Otherwise I will be forced to lay a fraud charge against your group.

Awaiting your urgent reply,

Regards

Jose Nunes

This is not resolved

Hi There

What exactly does this chat prove? It only says user on the chat and not the account holders name? and no security questions to verify identification was ask. Which number was used, I guarantee you that it is not my cell number registered on this account.

I guarantee you I was not the one communicating to you on that chat line and the burden of proof is on your company as I am going to file a formal charge.

Where did I give you a written mandate to also cancel on my behalf a policy I have been paying premiums on? Where is my years of premiums paid, is Mr Price going to refund me as I am also contacting Guardrisk on this.

Where was the sms of the account closure sent to as mentioned in ur chat (you are using as proof)?

You also refer to me as Michelle Laubscher below, the account holder is Jose Nunes (already there is a confusion , so I can clearly see how dangerous it can be giving junior operatives access to customers accounts and personal info) and this is just an email I used to mail you. You guys are committing fraud as you are nilly willy cancelling accounts and giving out personal info.

I need this matter escalated to a senior operative as your answer does not make sense and irregularities occurred on my account which is a criminal offense.

I will not be waiting another 24 hours for you to come back to me as I have now waited long enough and given you enough time to resolve this even after fraudulent activity is recorded on my account.

Will wait for an urgent reply

Regards

Jose Nunes

Mr Price Group / MRP Customer service

I have been an active Mr Price account holder for many years now, and never missed any payments. I deem myself as an important client of this group, well so I hoped. With doing many purchases on my account with no problems, I was refused to be assisted at Mr Price Paarl Mall on the 1st of May 2023. Reason was that I did not have an ID document. Moments earlier I made a purchase at Mr Price Sport in the same center, with no problems, and to be honest, in all the years having this account, I have never been asked to show an ID document when making a purchase. My signature is at the back of the card, and this is usually verified.

If this is the procedures, where was this communicated, the store manager response to me was, "All costumers know this", well not me!

Further to this extremely rude store manager, I showed my Driver license, and the transaction was done. My signature on the receipt was "Yes", I mean really, you need to have an ID, but the signature is not verified? They did not even look at my drivers license. Did not verify anything.

I am so disgusted in my experience at this store today. Should I not receive a suitable response showing me that Mr Price valid their costumers, I will close my account.

Mr Price Group / MRP No backup for loadshedding

Good day I went to Mr price in silverton to buy some clothes but when I got to the till the electricity went and they told me that I have to come back another day as they don't have back up and that they'll be closed at 2 o clock. The store has been here a very long time so how come they don't have backup for situations like loadshedding because surrounding shops have then.

Mr Price Group / MRP MRP Mobile

n 2019, I took out a contract with MRP mobile. This contract ended in 2021, and I settled the entire balance in May 2021 (Amount R1971), at the Westwood branch in Durban,KZN.

According to the staff at Westwood Mall in Mr Price, all was sorted. It even reflects on my bank statement for that month as it was a card payment paid directly to the store under the account. Last year, when checking my credit report I noticed that the account was showing up as a Nimble account, meaning that it was handed over. I have contacted Nimble to query this multiple times, and each time after sending the proof of payment, there was just a response to say feedback will be given, yet nothing has been done to date. I first spoke to Madimetsa at Norman Bisseett in July 2022, and then to Nicole in March this year. I've also spoke to Mr Price call centre which was no help at all, but rather very rude and arrogant towards me. They keep saying they cannot do anything as the account was handed over. I asked them to send me a statement or settlement letter as they have informed me that the account is showing as paid but handed over. At Mr Price, I have spoken to Portia and Nadia and both of them refused to help even after I explained that Nimble informed me that there was no update from them stating I have paid the account.

Desired outcome: I would like the account to be closed

Mr Price Group / MRP Not being allowed access into a store with my 5 year daughter

On 13 February 2023 Myself MR LD Lakey went to Mr Price store at Westgate mall Mitchell's plain Cape Town to purchase clothing items

At about 15pm
My wife and 2 older daughters entered the store but myself and my 5 year daughter were refused entry and I inquired to the security who was a Ms Nonkangeleko Ntsika standing at the front entrance why
She said my baby girl is having an ice cream in her hand and is not allowed in the store
I asked for the lady manager who later came and I asked her why we can't enter because of a baby ice cream in my 5 year girl's hand
The store manager said it's not their policy as she doesn't know why the security did that
The security lady responded, we do it at all the stores
This is so embarrassing for me as a citizen and brings me back to times of racism and judgment and my child suffered discomfort being without her mother
Your store is distasteful and in a new South Africa your policies are offensive and disgusting
I will never want to shop at any of your stores for support after more than so many years of being a customer

Desired outcome: Just a note to let your office know of what your staff is committed and I hope you expose those responsible

I have not agreed to this, I have numerous times begged the company to remove this, I received a sms on 8 February 2023 stating this will be resolved in February as apparently regardless that I did not ask for this, and it was forced on me without my approval, I have to allow a 31 day cancellation period. So upon checking my statement today, I see the funeral plan is still there, please what more must I do to resolve this illegal plan forced on me.

Desired outcome: I want this removed, immediately, as a matter of fact I want to be credited for this policy that was forced on me,

Mr Price Group / MRP Stolen phone by staff member

I went to Mr Price Sport Tygervalley on Saturday 31st December 2022 at approximately 13:20. When I entered the store, I had my phone, wallet and car keys with me.

I took a basket and put my phone, wallet and car keys inside the basket. I proceeded and took a shorts and sport bras that were displayed in the front isle. I put these items in my basket. While I was busy a lady staff member came and asked if I needed any assistance to which I answered, “I’m fine”. She then advised that they are currently having a sale. I then asked what’s on sale and she pointed at the various sections. Whilst we were talking, I realized the basket handle was broken, to which she gladly assisted as she fetched me a new basket. She put both baskets on the floor and transferred the items to the new basket. While she was doing that she asked if I saw the R10 bags on sale and I asked her to show me. She pointed at the bags and then immediately said let me show you where they are. She handed me the basket whilst on our way.

When we got there, I saw a laptop bag for R10 and grabbed it and put in my basket. I also saw a black gym bag for R50 which I also took. She then advised that there is a nicer one also selling for

R 50. She kept it aside for herself, but she thinks it is a better fit for me and that she will fetch it. She came back with the bag, and I really liked it, so I took it. I thanked her. I then walked towards the fitting room, when I saw shorts and I took two sets of sizes and put them in the basket. When I got to the fitting room, I was told to take the items I will fit, and they cannot exceed 6 items. I then reached inside the basket for my belongings, my car keys first, I got them, I also took my wallet and when I reached for my phone it wasn’t there.

I removed all the items from the basket and my phone wasn’t there. I immediately proceeded with my basket to the lady that was assisting me and asked her “Where is my phone as you were the only person who touched my items while swopping baskets for me” she said she doesn’t know!

The Assistant manager came and asked if I lost my phone I said YES, he asked which one, I told him an IPHONE 14 Plus and he was stunned and said “This cannot happen, it is now a second iPhone in 1 week “implying that there was another phone lost in the same shop within a week. He then asked for my number so he could call it, at that moment the lady that was assisting me, said she also has an IPHONE, she will fetch it to help me track my phone and she ran to the back. While she was gone, one of the male staff members called my phone it rang once and went to voicemail, when he called it again it went straight to voicemail. The Assistant Manager came with an IPAD to assist with tracking my phone. While we were busy doing that the lady that was assisting me came back without her cellphone that she supposedly went to fetch, and she said she doesn’t have data.

The lady who was assisting me requested for my alternative number as she said she knows people that can track IPHONE. She will help me, so I gave her my work cellphone number.

The Assistance manager and the two staff members helped to track my phone and it was offline on iCloud.

I, then went to iStore at Tygervalley mall so that they can track it from their side, but they couldn’t as it was switched off, and I asked them to lock it as it has been stolen.

I went back to Mr Price sport Tygervalley so that I could ask management to search her, due to the fact she was the only person that engaged with me whilst in the store till the moment my phone was gone. When I got there the Assistant Manager and some staff members informed me that they are suspecting her as they saw that she was with me the whole time, however I was told that she went on lunch, at that time I received a notification on iCloud that my phone has been found, meaning the phone was switched on again which happened while she was no longer at the shop.

I tried calling it and it was ringing. When I tracked the location, it was now in Cape town CBD near a cellular repair shop according to the map. During this time, whilst all this was happening, she called me and said I should urgently send her my phone details: The IMEI number and the iCloud login details. According to her the person whom she knows would track it was waiting for those details.

I had put her on loudspeaker as I was with the store management. I told her I don’t know those details and she said when I get home, I should take a picture of the box with IMEI number urgently. I said OKAY and she hung up, she further sent me a WhatsApp message requesting my phone login details so she can track it at her capacity.

Store Management took my contact details and said they will investigate and give me feedback.

Later in the day when I checked the number that she texted me with on WhatsApp and found out that she is using business WhatsApp for selling clothes and iPhones.

From there she never texted me again, I only keep receiving spam links requesting my phone login details.

I escalated that information to the store management as for me this was appalling.

I was shocked to be informed that there’s no footage as there are no security cameras at the store.

I met with Mr. Price sport Tygervalley Area manager a week later, since then I have not received conclusive feedback as to how this matter will be resolved. I’m informed they are investigating only when I follow up and it’s almost a month since the incident happened.

The last time I checked she never came back to work after the incident, and I feel that by me entering their store I put myself at risk, in actual fact all customers are at risk when entering that store.

I need my phone replaced and Mr price sport Tygervalley should be accountable and hold principle as this was done by their employee while on duty inside their shop where I as a customer should be safe.

As per the area manager the matter was escalated at head office and to date I have not received any feedback. The area manager does not answer my emails anymore and my calls are not picked up.

Desired outcome: Mr Price sport to take accountability and refund my stolen phone. The employee should be dismissed as she is a risk to other customers.

Mr Price Group / MRP Cricket balls that has the same exact same bar code and exact same balls but they charge me different prices

I bought 2x cricket balls from Mr price sport Richards bay now and the one ball was R79.99 the other ball price is scratched off but you van still see it is R79.99.bar code is the same. The manager helped me and said that she will not give me the one ball for R79.99 because on the system it is R99.99. She was rude and was not interested in to what i had to say and she raised her voice at me and even when i said that she was raising her voice at me she then shouted to the customers behind me am i raising my voice at him. That is not how a shop manager must act.i am the customer and it is not my fault the price says R79.99 and both balls is exact the same and bar code is the same.how does it work that i must pay 2 different prices for the exact same thing.

Desired outcome: Mr Price sport Richards bay manager must apologize for the way she treated a customer

Mr Price Group / MRP Delivery and lack of customer service

I placed an order with Mr. Price mid- Jan and expected a delivery on the 30th of January 2023 to Bryanston, Sandton. I did not receive the parcel however, received an email stating that my parcel has been delivered. The delivery address on the parcel was different to the billing address, and I made sure that I differentiated that on the order details. However, the details on the package were not as I has entered them when I got the small bit of feedback back, which wasn't helpful at all. I queried for 2 weeks about this matter with Mr. Price via email, Whatsapp self-service and calls. I was told that the parcel was with the courier company and that Mr. Price was waiting for an email confirming the delivery details. I then was informed of the delivery company used, which was Fastway Couriers. I was then told that my parcel was delivered to the wrong address.

3 weeks later and I still do not have my parcel and nothing is being done to rectify the mistake. I am so disappointed in Mr. Price and how they have handled everything on their side so much that I have had to go to extremities to investigate this case whereas I had placed the order with them. I feel that my case has not been taken very seriously with high priority. This whole mess has made me unwell because of all the stress I have gone through trying to get to the bottom of this.

Desired outcome: I would like to be refunded for my expenses. I would like for my order to be delivered, correctly to the correct address, with the correct contact person as well.

Mr Price Group / MRP I would like my refund processed!

I bought 2 mobile devices from Mr Price, one was for a driver at work and the other for baby carer at home. Carers phone kept freezing and shutting down within few months, drivers' phone is fine so far. I called customer services several times and was told to email the details to them. I supplied everything, was told to take to shop bought it from, as am no longer in Gateway area eventually told to take to our local shop Liberty Mall which I did, told them I did not want a repair wanted a refund, but they insisted it has to be sent in to be inspected and reviewed. No one called I chased several times, but Eugene (dept supervisor) was always out, no one wanted to assist & left messages. NO RESPONSE. Went into shop in December he out, is never there, was told he called me several times which I don't think they ever did, possibly my phone spammed their number which I saved so it would not do that, to date no call. I have emailed customer services who have told me an area manager will call liberty mall and respond. STILL NOTHING.

I JUST WANT MY MONEY / REFUND PROCESSED. THEY HAVE THE PHONE BOX & EVERYTHING. BUT NO ONE IS DEALING WITH THIS!

Good day
I have been calling, emailing and chasing to resolve this for months please assist!

I took phone into Mr Price Liberty Mall store in PieterMaritzBurg in October after was advised I could do so, the gentleman I dealt with was Eugene Willemse from the mobile section, he advised it must be sent in to be checked and would take several weeks - minimum 3 weeks and would contact me thereafter. I did advise I would not take phone back if needed repairing as we purchased a NEW product, but he said it was protocol & must be sent in first, I guess to ensure that we did not damage it in any way first? Vodacom Repairs slip: 1839554, attached my receipt provided previously to customer care and the shop.
We purchased 2 of same devices together, our driver uses other one which has had no problems. This one however has been problematic from start, kept freezing, shutting down and needed to be rebooted over and over, I contacted Mr Price customer care to advise we want to return phone and after several emails you advised I could take to the Pmburg shop as I was not in Durban Gateway area.
At Mr Price Liberty Mall, Eugene
I did not hear back from him and kept calling in to chase up, during a very busy work period but he was never available or off work and left messages. I spoke to a Krielin who said would chase him to call after he returned. After hearing nothing I went in to store after Christmas to check (I had an op early December so was out of action for few weeks) and again he was not in, however Krielin was who advised Eugene had tried to call but the number was spammed & blocked on my phone so did not pick up his calls. I said he should have emailed us as they had this detail also? I told him I just want refund processed. He tried to call Eugene but there was no reply and if he was on leave, I did not necessarily want to disturb him but was assured he will call when he returned and have not heard anything from him. I saved their number as Mr Price on my phone to ensure it did not spam him again, but to date have not had any calls from him, they have my email address and can also whatsapp but took steps to ensure his number was saved but nothing?!
I realise this is a busy period for the stores, but this has been months of having to chase & checking in which should not be my responsibility and very disappointing!
This has taken long enough now and would like to process refund without further delay, the store has the phone with the box etc. I will NOT accept a phone back that has issues when I paid for a new one, please arrange to refund this asap as our worker has had to do without a phone who takes care of babies and requires a phone! This needs to be resolved now as has taken months!
Please action and finalise!
If this cannot be done through your services or help lines then please forward me the managers details to resolve & authorise a REFUND!

Regards

Giselle

Good day
Your head office has given your contact details to deal directly with your store where we purchase item.
We purchased 2 Samsung A3 Core phones at your Gateway Store in June.
The one phone is not working and has given constant problems since purchasing and we have rebooted it several times which we would like to return please. The other one which is used by our driver seems to be ok for now.
I have attached the receipt of the purchase and details.
We however live in Pietermaritzburg so not easy to come into Gateway can we take this into the Liberty Mall in Pietermaritzburg?
Please advise on the protocol on this return thank you.
Regards
