SportScene.co.za service

I am not the person to lay complaints but the service I just received from bridge city sportscene was the worst ever I will never buy from them ever again, The first problem the store manager (Debs) had was that I presented a letter to buy and she asked me how long I have been in the company I told her she said she won't take the letter. I must have a cash card I explained to her that I did try to open the cash card they told me that I can't because I still have a balance on my normal foschini account..

And I was with my daughter we had to wait for 45minutes to get service from as she is the store manager, the lady by the name of Zinhle was very helpful she called customer service and then the purchase was gonna be done the second thing was I asked for a gift receipt as I was buying for my daughter and she doesn't live with me she had a problem with that and asked all kinds of questions and she was very very rude I have been buying from other stores they have never not once given me any problem..I am very disappointed in that store manager the way she treated me looks like she does that to every customer...

SportScene.co.za nike air force 1

Hi.

I bought Nike air Force and it was damaged, like it was worn, my mistake was trusting too much n not double checking my goods before I left de store. So wen I returned it and explained de problem, de manager told me dat there's no way Dy could sell me used goods.

I needed size 10, she gave me size 9 n half.

I even said to her, de shoes doesn't even fit my son so how would he use de shoes if dy don't even fit him.

She was very rude. She left me at de counter n started helping others.

So does dat mean I just threw my R700 down de drain?

SportScene.co.za left clothing plastics in the store

i went to purchase clothes for the kids on the 05 October 2019 at the store, after paying for the purchase R6069.30. We took the clothes but the other clothing plastic was left at the store.

I went last week friday to purchase something at the store, so i asked the lady at the store about the clothing plastic and she told me that i left the clothing plastic at the store that day.

Today when i was at the store the manager told me that he cant help me becourse he does not know about the clothing plastic. And he didnt bother to show me the video footage of that day to check who took the clothing plastics, the lady that help me her name is Chichi, so it means my money when to water, and i had payed for those missing clothes.

SportScene.co.za online team

I purchased a the Nike Air men's blue/yellow top on the 31 October 2019 only to be advised via via that the order has been canceled. Upon me calling the online support team I was told by one of the agents that when my order reached the warehouse the item was damaged. My question is who's fault is that because it resulted me having to re order the item. I would've loved to receive a call to confirm the above as the email is automated. I will never ever purchase from sportscene again! I suggest sportscene improves on providing a bit more information other than the email I received.

SportScene.co.za slippers

A friend who has an account with your shops bought me some Nike Size 5 slippers as a gift to myself. But unfortunately they do not fit me, they are small. I went back with them to the shop to exchange, together with the receipt. When I got there they turned me back since I had not brought the box, and only to then realize my house helper discarded of it unknowingly.
The manager from the shop, by the name of Khosi insisted they could not exchange without the box, company policy stipulates.

I am without the box, my bad. But the slippers are in perfect condition, not worn.

I am writing to ask for your intervention on the matter. I am stuck with slippers I cannot use, the shop did not have my size even. I could have exchanged with a t-shirt or something. Please help.

SportScene.co.za cellphone

A sales assist, named Lulu and his colleague, from Sportscene Megacity - gave me a very rude attitude when we came to query about the cellphone we purchase because it was giving us issue since we started using it, it freezes now and then..

when receiving calls it's stuck on the caller screen. we ask her how long are we allowed to return it is it 7 days or 30 day and we also told her that we contacted Hi Cellular about the issue and they advise us to take the cellphone back to the shop, she just laughed us when we said that and her male colleague told us theirs no such thing.

SportScene.co.za service

Date: 15 September 2019
Place : mall of Africa
Time : 18:15 - 18:45

A sales assist, named Kwezi, from Mall of Africa - gave me a very rude attitude and refused to assist when I wanted to enquirer about a product.
He didn't even show any remorse when the lady at the till called to apologize- instead he started making remarks as he walked away.

To top it off, when I walked out of the shop - he was still on the same trajectory. I don't believe rude salespersons are required at the shop as they actually deter potential spenders to complete their transactions.

May this matter/ individual be dealt with please.

SportScene.co.za management

Its the second time Ive been in this newly revamped store and overheard the manager reprimanding staff infront of customers. This is totaly unprofessional behaviour. Do they not have a office where they can talk. I have also been in retail for a number of years and this is the first time I have ever witnessed this. For a lady to act like a hooligan just because she is the manager is really unacceptable. These are human beings that have families to provide for not animals that can be shouted at as you see fit. I hope that this will open her eyes and that going forward she will treat staff as people

SportScene.co.za I am complaining about poor service if your going to open account

I applied sportscene account online then later on I submitted my documents via email and whatsapp . What is annoying is that they keeping sending messages that emphasize that I must submit my documents to the nearest sportscene store. I went to sportscene in West street Durban for assistance but they failed to assist me instead they told me that I should wait however they keep on sending messages that says I must submit my documents or else my account will expire.. Sportscene management in West street Durban they all have bad attitudes towards customers the reason why I'm saying this is due to the fact that they failed to assist me regarding this matter even they I'm clueless because they failed to assist me. I'm really disappointed about this phenomenal.

SportScene.co.za accounts & unknown subscription

I have account with Sportscene in which I made full payment on the first of March 2019 in Accornhoek Mall, in Mpumanga, Bushbuckridge . After making full payment,   I have not purchased anything.  I was surprised to receive SMSs and Telephone calls,   from your employees requesting that I should pay the due amount owed. I have explained to them for number of times that I have not purchased anything ever since i paid the Account in full,   however they keep on calling.

I have tried to unsubscribe for Magazine that i was told that i subscribed and i need to pay for. When making a full payment in march I signed a form in Accornhoek Mall Sportscene store,   which the Cashier explained to me that after signing it,   the Magazine will be unsubscribed.

After all the attempts i made to unsubscribe and/or terminate the Account Agreement in order to avoid the to pay for debts that i dont know,   i didn't suceed. It's very unfair for me to pay for things i don't kno,   especially when i paid in full and did not purchase anything. I feel like this does not goes in line with the Credit Agreement Act and Consumer Protection Rights Act.

SportScene.co.za nike 270

I am so dissatisfied in youre policies regarding youre warranty for Nike sneakers. I like buying quality clothing. I expect a pair of Nikes to last me 2-3 years. I purchased a pair of 270 Nike 1st November 2018.June month I noticed that im walking uncomfortable not knowing the buble burst. I have been up and down to various stores not getting any help. I was advised to return to the store where I purchased. To my disgrace this one guy told me I can use a bicycle pump and just pump the bubble up back. That being said are you then not 1 of the most quality product stores how the hell can this happen. I am so disgraced and I am going to the papers with this because who the hell tells a customer that. I feel like closeing my account also. I still have a pair of flux that I bought 2016 and is still in a good condition. At the moment my expectation for Nike has dropped as well as Sportscene.

I noticed there's a hole right below my toes.. I went to the Randburg square store today (01/03/2019) where I bought them and was told to come back later cause the guy who deals with that will come in later.. I am so disappointed cause I have the same sneakers but white color and they still fine. I paid R699 and still have my slip.. Can you please help me.

SportScene.co.za service - unprofessional behaviour

Hi

I would like to lay a formal complaint about the Floor assistance in Gateway store

I Nompumelelo Mkhize came to the store this morning 25/01/2019 around about 11 clock was looking for a Redbat dress .. However they did not have my size so I then asked one of the Floor assistance her name was KIM SHONGWENI ... She totally ignored me and walked away saying HER SHIFT HASNT STARTED YET ... I then went to another guy who was really helpful and he even checked other stores if they had my size, , I told this guy what had happened of which I think he then asked this lady why did she ignore me... This lady came running to me stopped me by the door hence I was leaving the shop and she was very rude she asked me why did I tell the guy that she ignored me I answered her by asking if DID YOU HELP ME YES or NO again she said her shift had not started ... She answered and said I WAS DRUNK and started swearing in isiZulu.
I called my friends Samkelisiwe Sishi and Desree Allen who were already outside the shop and went straight to the till asked for a manager the manager came told him what has happened . While speaking to the manager KIM SHONGWENI (the staff) came and again became so aggressive she even said in front of the manager that I was CRAZY
We were so upset and disappointed to be told by a floor assistance that we were DRUNK and STUPID CRAZY in front of a store manager, staff and other customers.
We work around Gateway Mall and people were walking pass looking at us like Dizzy crazy people.
I personally feel that my dignity had been crushed down and I will be spreading the word and make sure my team knows about this because I was so disappointed.

I understand her shift had not started but the fact that she was on the floor wearing her uniform she should've helped us or appointed someone else to help.

Thanks.

SportScene.co.za inappropriate behaviour towards customers.

I went to one sportscene in Johannesburg Park Central. I wanted to buy two leggings. One nike and one Adidas for my daughter. Then i was told by one of the workers at the till that "NRCS" cards don't work. Which was surprising because it wasn't my first time using my game card to purchase at any sportscene..i never had problems.

I asked for the manager and she had a very nasty attitude towards me telling me that they dont work with "NRCS" cards. I didn't appreciate her behaviour towards me and i would like file a complain. And something should be done immediately.
