I have paid my account in full in October 2018, but you have not removed my name from the Credit Burea. I would like to close my account, but you refuse to respond to my emails and don't answer your phones.

You have given me a letter (attached) that state my account has been paid in full in 2018, why did you not remove it from my name at the Credit Burea.

Please close my account.
Please clear my name at the Credit Burea.

All my details are on your letter attached.

Kind regards,

Due to COVID19, I was forced to process payment for the very first time via EFT. I called the store and spoken to Chevon Lesch, Admin Manageress at Jet Kenilworth Centre on 6 May 2020 at 09h20. She had refused to assist despite having explained I am unable to leave home. Furthermore my statement for May 2020 was not available online. In light of the COVID Pandemic, it will be much appreciated if we are assisted telephonically with account balances. All I need to know if Edgars account payment has been received and the balance is Nil.

To whom it may concern

Got a call from call centre staff twice during lockdown regarding payment. I explained to your staff that paymment will be made after lockdown is over. Then I got a call again regarding payment and on questioning your staff as to why she is working during lockdown as she is a non-essential staff, I was told she was working from home and she expected me to go out to the bank to do a left. What kind of service is this. Does your Company want me to break lockdown rules because of one month's payment. This is unacceptable service. I am seriously thinking about closing down this açcount. I don't want to do business with a company that doesn't abide by rules and regulations of the government.

Will you please stop asking me all the time if I want a limit increase. I do NOT and WILL NOT in future want a limit increase. If you do not stop harassing and sending me SMS's I will close my account. If I ever want to discuss any changes to my account I will contact you! Do not contact me! It is annoying!

I complaint already on Aug 07, 2019. Still, 6 months later, no response.
It is unacceptable. I will not easily buy these products again from Edgars.

Email sent on 15th January 2020 - I purchased this perfume and gave it to my boyfriend for his birthday on 7 January 2020. He used it a few times since then and I cannot even get the scent at all. I paid a lot of money for this and very disappointed.

I want a full.refund or an exchange of perfumes as this appears to be old stock

Please contact me on [protected] urgently

To whom it may concern Morning

I here have an inquiry/ complain about the above account ).lately I have been going through my statements trying to figure out the total owing to you guys as I wanted to settle the account .but to my surprise I realize that my account's credit limit has been increasing without my knowing /knowledge. I would like to know how or who authorized the limit increase from what it was is in 2016 unfortunately I don't have statements prior to that, to what its on to date. if possible I would like some records from you stating /showing my request for the increase .if not so kindly assist in amending the account back to the original limit as I would not be able/afford to pay off /settle the current limit. an email was sent to the ombudsman (ombud@creditombud.org.za)on Monday but till this day no one has replied or acknowledged my email .

Never had such an awful disgusting and humiliation experience the security guard at Edgar s Hammanskraal, According to his name he is Rankapole with no name batch we also expected to trust them right, busy trying to look for clothes for my kids he then come and instruct me that I am supposed to come and pack things as it is my kid who unpacked them, No creating and as I am not even sure that it was the child that did that I am supposed to believe and pack.No matter how disparate I am I will not set my foot to that Edgar s.[protected] Andronicca

In 25/26 November 2019, I placed an online order for click and collect. I placed 2 additional orders in the week to follow, both were received. However my order dated 25/26 November has still not received the store. Nobody can account for what happened to it, if it was ever dispatched, or what the way forward is. I have wasted fuel, airtime, and time in general trying to follow up on this matter. The item I had ordered was meant to be a wedding gift. I placed the order well in advance assuming that it would arrive on time. Now in addition to the inconveniences I have suffered over the last week, I will also have to turn up at the wedding without a gift! Why do you have the option of online shopping and delivery if you are incompetent?

I was called in December 2018 regarding a new product that was being offered by Edcon.This offer consisted of data and airtime that was supposed to be loaded onto my number on a monthly basis and the said charges would be based onto my edgars account.I subsequently accepted the product and await the airtime. In and about late January 2019, I was called again by an agent asking whether I had received the bundles and I advised her that I hadn't.She advised that some clients had also experienced the problem and she was calling her clients to check of they were affected.Nevertheless she apologised.From January to August 2019 I had not received any airtime or data bundle or any notification of said transfer.I just assumed it failed again and was discontinued.I happened to look at my Full statement on August 2019 and saw that I was charged for the two products that I never received.I reported the matter to the Northgate Edgars store and they assisted me with cancelling the service and I was advised that the matter would be investigated regarding the airtime and date. I received two references shortly therafter.Your CancelProduct call . Ref: EDCP-[protected] and Your CancelProduct call Ref: EDCP-[protected].

In September 2019 I saw that I was billed again for one of the product.I went back to Northgate Edgars, annoyed at this point, and advised that I was still being billed.It turns out the customer service people who assisted cancelled the one product and not the them.They sent the instruction again for cancellation and further investigation for my refund.Your CancelProduct call Ref: EDCP-[protected].Your CancelProduct Ref: EDCP-[protected].

I hadn't received any feedback for 2 months and then in November 2019 I've been receiving a barrage of phone calls from Edcon collections department.Although it was said that a net will be placed on the system for the refund.Every agent I spoke to who called for collection, advised that the matter would be escalated and they would revert and also that a note would be placed on the system regarding the investigation.I called in last week and was assisted by a lady who actually escalated the matter as I received an sms yesterday that reads as follows:: Dear Miss L Kalipa

With regards to your recent Airtime enquiry with EDCON, kindly note your query has been processed.

The cancellation has been processed. A refund has been declined as the customer took up the subscription. As per the call recording, the sale is valid.

Edgars Customer Service"

Here is the reason for my complaint:I mever denied taking up the contract, I admitted to it from the start BUT I had and have not received ANY of the products over the months that I was being billed for.I have been purchasing my OWN fell on airtime through my banking app and at no point have I received the bundles from Edcon.Yes a contract was concluded BUT EDCON has not performed in terms of the contract and I have as I was being billed and paid every month.In essence Edcon is in breach of its own contract yet I'm being penalised as if I breached the contract.Your assistance will be appreciated in this regard.Failing which the matter will be escalated to the Ombudsman.

Kindest regards

I purchased some items online and was notified that my items will arrive on 21 November before 17:00 - see attached image.

Nothing arrived.

I called the number listed to call regarding online order (0800 203 925). They did not know who handled their deliveries and could not check in with the courier for an update.

OCC:[protected]

They simply left it at "it will probably arrive the next day".

Disgusting service, to say the least.

While I was at the above mentioned store, a staff member accused me of being a thief, claiming that a customer has told her that I have approached her and told her that I work at the store and I can buy goods for her at a cheaper price. The staff member called the manager for me and she was making so much noise that the whole shop came to a stand still and everyone was now looking at me and I was so shocked and embarrassed and the more I tried to explain to them that the might be a misunderstanding, the more that staff member was embarrassing me even further, not even listening to my side. So I ended up at the manager's office to tell them that I don't know what she was talking about and I demanded that they check the camera footage to see if I did speak to anyone while I was inside the shop. The manager took my details and said she will check the footage and give me a call. When I left the shop, I then decided to go open a case of deformation of charecter at Benoni police station, you know I was so embarrassed and shocked by this whole incident and I am so angry and I am going to make sure that I see this through with everything that I got.
