Pep Stores Closing times

I am very dissapointed in the service regarding the closing times which indicates clearly on the window of Pep store, Nelson Mandela boulevard, 8-2 and the doors were basicly closed in our faces just after 13hoo. None of the staff were decent enough to come to the door and try to explain why the doors were closed. One of the staff member said something to the security at the door and he just put his wrists together indicating they are closed. Not proffesional, poor and disgusting service. This specific branch is my favourate one to shop and ive had previous encounters with the staff regarding service but always let it go but today was the cherry on the cake for me. They took the board hanging in the window that indicates the closing and opening times down when we pass the store again.

Pep Stores Bad customer service

I was at pep at busy corner mall (pep 7229 thembisa). A lady by the name of Ntsoane gave me such a bad attitude. Firstly she did not even greet me because she was chatting to her colleague. I greeted her and paid for my items and asked to open a pep savings card. She did not respond to anything I said. Well I waited for her to finish scanning. When she was done scanning she looked at me and said nothing. I noticed that she did not hear when I asked for a card. I gave her money and asked for a card again. She still said nothing. She took the money and worked on her till, then she gave me my change. She literally just threw it on a counter R77.00 instead of R77.10. I asked her why she would do that, why she would just throw money like that to me and not give me my 10 cents. She said with an attitude that she did not have 10 cents. I told her that she could have atleast explained nicely then I would have understood, that it was not about the 10 cent however by her attitude. She gave me more attitude by throwing 50 cents on a counter. Anyway I asked about the card, she said dial *, but then I had left my phone in the car, and that I did not know that it was needed since I read on the pep website that I only needed ID book and R20 for activation. I told her and she replied by saying "next please" then looked at me and said "we are not the internet we are pep, don't tell me about what you read there". She did not care to explain to me what was needed.

Pep Stores Repair to new cell phone

Good day

My son purchased a hawuei Y5 lire from Pep Cell at Moutse Mall Dennilton limpopo. The phone was returned on the 10th February 2020 due to problems and was sent for repairs (the store manager is Nomcebo).
We have had to call regularly for updates which they could not bother doing.
We eventually got a call back from the store tosay it's still being repaired. Now we were informed that we should never have taken the purchase slip back with us. This was given to is by the store cashier so we cannot be blamed for this issue. Now this phone was for my grandson to use for school doing his matric. With schools now closed he cannot receive his daily study programs.
I find this lack of urgency a slap inthe face of your customers. I am beyond angry and annoyed with pep and I am going via social media to voice my anger at pep cell and advice customers to boycott cell phone purchases from these stores as they do not have any sense of customer service.
My son's details are:
Single Mathopa

Huawei Y5 lute
Handed in 10 February 2020 for repairs.

Please I need this phone returned by Friday or replaced with a new one as this home was barely a month old.

Pep Stores Service of the store

I always do shopping at pep for my children but since the new manager i totally don't go in the store because her customer service and people skills are very bad.
Other day she was so rude to one of her stuff and shouted and used explicit language infront of us as customers and there were small kids also in the store
When a customer approached her about her behaviour she just turned and walked away with the words"im the manager not you"
It os no pressure to shop at the fort beaufort Pep store anymore
I ask that this matter be attended to as you will lose your valuable customers
Jane is her name
