Pep Stores Refuse to refund money for Laybye

Greetings

I'm Nompilo Mdlalose with cellphone no. [protected] I failed to finish paying for my laybye before it's expired and later on I went to the Paulpietersburg store to ask for my laybye refund the lady by the name Gladys Mdlalose was so disrespectful towards me, she had an audacity to tell me that Pep is not a bank they don't keep people's money 😒 I was so offended today I decided to return again and spoke to Management Zanele she boldly told me that once the laybye expires no money is given to a customer worse part I don't even have a slip to proof, she really didn't bother even to check with the computer system so this really upset me because this is my money 😢 I'm a regular customer at Pep but the employees are not treating us as we are supposed to be treated, should you not consider to act with the old Pep at Paulpietersburg the brand will lose its reliable customers like myself

Sad Regards

On 18 May 2022 I went to take my layby out, the teller told me that I can't find my layby it already sold out and I ask her when it was due? she said July, I asked how come it sold? she said it was take out on 16 May 2022 to sell it and I asked but my due date was July. I am here before that time, she gave me back the money that I used to make the layby.

My son winter clothes I didn't get it and today it cold my son don't have winter clothes because of pep store

Layby that I didn't not get and couldn't find even find help from the supervisor of the store so I am not happy with the service!

Pep Stores Inappropriate call from Pep store manager in Umkomaas during working hours

I received a phone call from your manager Amanda Reddy during working hours on the 1st March 2022 to discuss issues not relating to any matter regarding Pep business. The caller was rude and made threats to me and my business. I need to know what your company policy is regarding matters of this nature as I find it unsuitable behavior especially since calls were made during office hours from your company telephone. The manner in which the lady spoke raising her voice and making threats is definitely something that is unprofessional.

Desired outcome: Need for your regional manager to contact me and to provide an explanation

They sent the phone in for repairs and and we had to go and find out why the phone is taking so long to be repaired and last week Wednesday 16/02/2022 we received the phone back just for it to pack up again on Thursday 17/02/2022. I called them Friday because I want my money back or a new phone but they said I must call the call centre. I phoned the call centre and tolled them my situation and they said the Area Manager is going to phone me. I waited for the call. I went there Saturday 19/02/2022 and they said it is out of their hands the area manager is going to call me today which is the 21/02/2022 but there is no phone call as yet. Can I please have my money back and kindly note I don't want a new phone money back please. Today the 21/02/2022. They don't have no customer services.

Pep Stores Imei :353013104698747 ; brand : techno ; model : pop 2 mini

The product was sold to me at PEP CELL, Hillside Mall, Bluff, Durban on 11/08/2021 and when I used it it's response was very slow and when I returned it the staff told me that all these makes of phones are very slow and I accepted their explanation. Furthermore it slowed down on my WHATSAPP messaging, that is taking 2 to 3 days delays from sender to receiver and lastly , I presume, that the speaker died because when I phoned or someone phoned me I could hear the other person speaking but they could not hear me.

I returned the phone to PEP CELL , Bluff on 20/01/2022 and my phone was booked for repairs by Cashier : Minenhle and told me that I will be without my phone for 3 to 6 weeks , but to my surprise I received a call from ZODWA ; PEP CELL , Bluff today ( 02/02/2022 ) asking for my Id. No. so they can send my phone for repairs after 2 weeks expecting that they could be phoning anytime to say that my phone is ready for collection.

Pep Stores Very disrespectful and unprofessional

I had contacted the pep boys 17015 Torrance Ave and informed them that I was bring my car to get a flat tire repaired. The guy I spoke with said to bring it and they would fix it. I get here at 745pm, the store hours on line states they close at 9pm. But, when I arrive they say they cannot repair it because they are closing in 15 minutes. Why tell me to come and they decide to close a hour and 15 minutes early and have a nasty attitude about it. Now I'm stranded until another tow truck comes. This very unprofessional and disrespectful. Please help me understand why this has taken place. Further more they could have fixed a flat in less than 15 minutes. My name is Quentin Pops. [protected]. Please feel free to contact me and help me understand. And I see why this store has a 2 star rating.

Pep Stores Unethical behaviour

Good day

I am laying a complaint against pep cell store at braamfontein. My daughter submitted her cv on the 25 of nov, she wrote the test on the 26, I had to go back to them to ask how everything went cause they were quiet and thats when they told me they wil call me. They contacted me on the 03rd of nov for the interview. They then contacted me on the 6th and told me she passed everything and she should start training on the 08 of dec. On the 9th of dec they called us and told us that she should not come for another training and didnt give us a reason. Ever since then they havent said anything, I then decided to go there on the 13 on a monday this week and they told me that the shop is not busy they will send her somewhere, but even now they havent said a word. All they keep doing is telling us are stories. Whats even more frustrating is that theres another girl who is working there, and she has the uniform and everything. If they didnt want to hire why did they make her sign the contract and get our hopes high. And we expect her to get her paid since they promised her so. It is not our fault that they are not proffessional

I would really appreciate your assistance on this issue
if you want to contact me the following are my details

Pep Stores Service

Good day

Please find the attached docs.

To whom it may concern

I write this email with great dissapointment on how my mother suffered just to get her money back, the ups and downs she had to do while shes a pensioner during this pandemic times, my mother went to pep evaton to do money transfer on the 10th of September 2021, by mistake she got only 1 cellphone number wrong so she was advised to fill in a withdrawal form and she was asked to go to the internet cafe and use her own money to fax the documents to the refund department, she went went up and down maybe 3 times to sort the issue out with no help but instead they told her it will take 2 months before she can recieve her money back, then i decided to contact the head office for advice, while they told me the store should be able to sort the matter out for us and they must do the follow ups to ensure we get the money back and it only takes about 10 days... i mean its sad how pensioners get treated in that store, corona is still killing people and a pensioner must be treated as such, i dont enjoy seeing my own mother going up and down just to recieve her own money she needs her money.

It will be a delight if you can assist her.

The young lady that help us with the second denim a bought couldnt even find the item on my second exchange slip, i have to help her find it. Hope this can be sorted out because there is alot of people that need costomer service not to be treated like that. Regards Chantell

Pep Stores Service complaint

I visited Pep on Friday @ forest hills Monavone, there service was ridiculous it wasn't what l was expected.

They fraud me l gave them R50 but they claimed that l did give R20.

After l shared this with my friends they told me that they have experienced with this similar issue.

They made me to wait almost an hour so that they can check on the Camera. What made me down after they checked and they did confirm that l did really paid the Lady R50, "they gave me collect change without any apologize".

Please tell your workers they shouldn't do such fraud rather they should find another way how they can get money not from us rather they can fraud from you.

Desired outcome: Manager must know how to handle with customers after such bad service please 🙏
