Pick n Pay Service

I have a voucher from an international manufacturer for replacement of faulty product. At the checkout this voucher caused a problem involving 5 staff members for about 20 min. Eventually one of the supervisors said that this is not a voucher bespite the word being in big bold letters, to be honest the staff were making little to no effort to assist. In frustration I left my entire shop and went to another retailer. PnP spend some time to train your staff.

Not a complaint: I would liek to firstly, commend pick n pay for the amazing clothing range that they keep especially in the kids department as well as the value for money options. I do however, want to enquire as to why the lay-bye option isnt available at pick n pay clothing. With the current economic state and having to budget all the time. I would like...

The service at this Pick 'n Pay is pathetic. Whenever a customer wants to a withdrawal or cashback at the cashiers, we get told, they don't have money, and when we ask, to please ask their colleague or manager, they get an attitude. This morning I was told by the store manager, Teboho, they don't have money because they loaded the Capitec ATM, and I can...

I was very pleased with both of them. The older one, navy, shrank badly in the length at the first cold water hand wash. I bought navy lace to lengthen it, and was satisfied. After the second...

Pick n Pay customer service at cashiering points

Poor cashiering service Wednesday 29 January 2020 between 17:00 - 18:00 Till No 11 . The interaction to us the client doesn't exist. Cashiers throughout the store are more interested in communicating in their mother tongue with one another ( cashier to cashier and/or packer ) and ignore us the client completely. This happens every Wednesday afternoon. I would like to suggest management and their trainer/s visit the stores at Willobridge and De Ville Centre to experience proper customer service. I get the idea management at the large corporate stores are scared of the Unions.
