It seems no-one within the organization even knows which company the policy is through, or can find any record of the policy on my account
I was approached months ago telephonically with an offer of a motor extender insurance policy covering mechanical breakdowns of my vehicle. I was told that I had to decide then, on the telephone, whether I wanted the cover or not. No documentation could be sent out to aid my decision. I took the policy and was promised policy documents would be sent to me forthwith. I have now been paying the policy for 3 months, with monthly installments accruing on my Edgars account.

Now that I need to make a claim, I have been through, without exaggeration, at least 40 different numbers via the customer service call centre. Each number I am told to phone tells me that I am at the wrong deapartment and gives me another number to phone. This has been going on for almost a month and I don't seem to be any closer to contacting the correct department in this regard. I have also been to customer services at the Sandton Edgars branch who have made numerous calls on my behalf with the same results.

It seems no-one within the organization even knows which company the policy is through, or can find any record of the policy on my account, yet the monthly premiums are deducted without fail.

Only 1 cashier was open to help more than 20 customers
I went to the Polokwane Branch of Edgars and when I went to pay there was a line of more than 20 customers in line to pay but there was only 2 cashiers open with a possiblity of at least 6 more cashiers. Then while I was standing in line the cashier allowed the person she was helping to go and fetch more items to buy after she rung a few items of the customer. So she stood there doing nothing while waiting for the customer to return. so in effect only 1 cashier was open to help more than 20 customers.

This is ridiculous!!! How can there only be 2 cashiers open??? And allow customers to shop after the cashier has rung some of their items?? Further more the air-conditioning was not working or not working properly!!!

I am extremely frustrated with the situation I am experiencing with Edgars
I am extremely frustrated with the situation I am experiencing with Edgars. I closed my account 2years ago and then 6months later they called me saying I’m owing I told the lady that I closed my account long time. I went to Cresta shopping centre I paid what they said I owe told them again to close my acc. Mpho from the call centre called me again I told her that I closed that account she promised to reverse the amount. Next thing I am on ITC.I called the call centre again they promised to reverse the amount. I requested a letter from them confirming that I’ve paid and closed the account they referred me back to Mpho.I sent an email to Mpho and her supervisor Michelle they haven’t replied me. Can someone help me I need that letter urgently.

The best of the worst service
Generally if you want to have the BEST of the Worst service, make your way to Edgars, not all the staff, I admit, those I can count on 2 fingers, but, my experience on the 271009 with Beauty is enough to keep me away from that store forever.I bought 2 items that needed to be altered, never being to that section of any Edgars before, I was met by Beauty .When I asked if I was at the right place, she rudely told me the lady is not there, when I asked where she was, I again ever ruder, told me she didn't know, then said she was on lunch, when I asked if there was anyone else to help, she said no and she didn't know when the lady will be back, then she said 2:30pm.I was quite perturbed by her attitude and lack of assistance, so I asked her where her manager was, she pointed in mid-air and said I must go and find the manager.I ddin't do this, instead I walk around the store and shopped.I then came back at 2:30, and asked her if the lady was back, she told me yes, so I said thank you, she turned around and told me I must keep my thank you, she doesn't need it.She then refused to show me where the lady was, and told me I was rude.I told her I was going to report she her, she said can, she doesn't care...

Put on hold for more than 30 minutes
During the postal strike I never received my Edgars account so therefore forgot to pay it. At the most my account was 2 months in arrears by not more than R700. I subsequently paid it and when i tried to use my acount on Sunday 25 October 09, I was told the account was blocked and tthe staff in the store could not tell me why. I have tried calling the accounts department this morning and have been on hold for over 30 minutes all the while hearing how important my call is to them. Clearly its not that importnat or they would have answered it - or maybe I have a different understanding of the word important. I finally gave up. Please can you tell me why my account was blocked and if it was due to late payment, that is very poor. I have been a loyal customer for many years and would not appreciate that. Hopefully you will respond to this faster than you answer your phone. I will however not be holding my breath.

I am appalled at the level of service from Edgars
I am appalled at the level of service from Edgars, I logged a complaint on Monday and no one has contacted me as yet. I phoned the call centre yesterday again for the 8th time, then only did the agent refer the matter to the regional manager. Every agent I spoke to so far has supposedly escalated to the regional manager and the store but nothing has happened. As it stands the damage is a huge risk to my baby. If something has to happen to my baby, Edgars and Jeep will be be held solely responsible. If Edgars wants a court battle over this issue then that is what they will get. I was given the name of the regional manager as Elroy Van Blerk to contact me, I am still waiting for him to call me.

Edgars, you better come to the party regarding this matter, I do not want another automated response from San again. When I call to speak to him, he is not available. I am sick and tried of Edgars hiding behind the phone. I will go to the store if you want me to, then all hell is going to break loose, trust me, I'm done being pushed from pillar to post. Edgars better contact me by 12h00 today!!!

Stay away from Edgars
This is not the first time that i have received either an e-mail or promotion material regarding a new perfume soon to be released, inviting me to collect my FREE sample from the hearest EdgarsRed Square store while stocks last.
i currently have Chanel No.5, Angel, Touch of Pink, Obsession, Nina and Pleasures at home and would really like to try a new perfume - but the thing is, every time you approach Edgars for a sample to try something new none is to be had - either because they have no idea what you're talking about despite the email you received, or haven't received samples, or because they have none left . This reminds me of a month ago when i tried to find out the balance on my account to pay it in full, twice the phone was put down in my ear - i eventually phoned Tygervalley for help.

retrenchment policie that didnt pay out
I was retrenched in 2008, I had an edgars account for 2003 to then, I had taken the retrenchment cover, however the cleint services had told me that i lappsed in the last instalment therefore I do not qualify for payment cover, even though i explained that I lapsed on payment was due to the retrenchment, I now find out that I have been blacklisted, all my other accounts have paid out & settled the accounts that I had cover for .


Really do not know what to do .

Handed over despite receiving payment
Due to some unforseen and unexpected medical expenses I fell behind on my account. I made an arrangement to settle the arrears by way of duplicate payments for the next three months, starting with the first payment due on the 25th September. I made this payment as promised only to find a letter from Edgars' collection company in the post today, indicating that I 'failed' to make payment and that I have been listed on itc. I did not 'fail' to make payment, I did pay and will continue to do so until the account is fully paid up and I can close my account.

To date I have only received one letter of demand which I acted on, and I hope that for your sake I don't now have a default listing on itc which will stay on my record for the next two years.

Edgars, as you expect me to keep to the agreement and pay when due, I also expect you to do the right thing (if that is at all possible) and refrain from placing default listing or judgement on my credit record unless it is as a last resort for you to get your money.

Thanks to the NCR I am fully aware of my rights as a consumer.

Bad planning causes poor service
I went to Edgars Cape Gate on Wednesday, 30th September at 09h10 to return a jacket. There were two ladies ahead of me in the queue at Customer Services. Although there are six counters, there was only one cashier – this cashier was still in training. After standing and listening to complaints from clients behind me, I was attended to after approximately 40 minutes. This is unacceptable. It was difficult to understand the cashier, visa versa. When I left, there were six clients in the queue complaining about the slow service. One cashier only. . .
