I bought a the above mentioned Home theatre with DVD Player from HI-FI Corporation, River Walk, Botswana for Pula 4650 (invoice no: [protected]) according to their advt. on 1st of October2007. In advt. it is clearly mentioned that the new HDMI technology. But the Home Theatre SONY Bravia is HDMI and the DVD Player that i got is not HDMI compatible. When i contacted the dealer they are not aware of this and mentioned that there is no HDMI DVD player for SONY. But i came to know from your EXPO conducted in Johannesburg on 13th October 2007 in Sandton City that ther is HDMI Compatible DVD Player is in the market. i also seen HDMI Compatible DVD Player in other shops in Gaborone but our dealer is blaming their supplier and they are not ready to replace my DVD Player with the new HDMI Compatible DVD and i didnt get any warranty card from SONY at the same time. They are mentioning their invoice a 14 day replacement guarantee if you are not happy with the product. On 15th October 2007 i am reaching the 14th day. Till now there is no reply from them. I really got cheated. Beware!

I ordered a fridge and food processor a week ago. NO contact has been made with regard to delivery, I cannot get through to customer care and not one of my emails have had any response. We have to use a cooler box at home instead of a fridge while I try and contact this useless company! Extremely dissatisfied!

Hi: I bought a Hi-Sense Smart TV on the 23rd or 24th December 2016. They told me it had a two year warranty and I paid for a one year extended warranty. The TV is no longer working and the Nelspruit, The Grove, Hi-fi Cooperation doesn't want to assist me.

Hi there,

I went to Jabulani mall to Hi Fi Corp to purchase TV using the attached example of gift card but I had the Cresta Gift Debit Card, which can be used anywhere and everywhere and I was advised that I can't use it. Can you please tell my Why you are unable to pay with it.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Extremely disappointed with the service, made numerous complaints with absolutely no assistance recieved.

Why have a 5 year warranty if you never going to assist a customer when something goes wrong.

Even the customer care within store dont know anything!

Really ridiculous service!
