Uninformed staff costing you money
This morning, I wanted to purchase a 19' Telefunken LCD TV that was on special. Needless to say, finding the right power and antenna feed cables were quite an issue, but after about 15 minutes, at last I could see how the TV performed.

Then, the REAL problem started. I do not own a TV license, but not because I am dishonest, or because I do not believe we shouldn't be paying for a license for a TV in the first place (which I firmly believe), but because the sales person wouldn't believe me when I said I co-own a property and the TV license is in the other person's name. I had the license number, the address, the person's ID number, but NO, I couldn't buy the TV.

Must I layout my forefathers' history for you?????

So I walked away!! Your staff's inability to understand this moronic stupid money grabbing law is costing YOU money.

So what if I want to buy a TV as a gift for someone? I can buy a R1000, 000 car as a gift but not a TV??

GET IT RIGHT!!!

Shocking service from provider
We purchased a Toshiba Satellite Laptop from Game in Oct 09. In Jan the laptops hard drive crashed and we called Game. They told us we needed to speak to Incredible Solutions which handle their PC problems. I spoke to one consultant who told me to return the laptop. I asked my husband to call the next day again and the consultant tried to assist but also said we needed to return the machine to Game which we did. At this point no calls have been logged with Incredible Solutions?Joe, the manager told us that is not the process, a consultant is supposed to come to our house. He came 3 days later and took the laptop. Moshe was the cosultant who was handling the query. He called to say that it was a software problem and needed to pay R250. I told him that it cannot be software if I cannot even boot off the machine (I am in IT)!! He told me they would send the machine to Mustek who will fix it.. Every 2 days I phone and there is always a long story as to why it is taking so long. First blaming Mustek, then the parts have not arrived. Now the consultant is off sick. I have never had such pathetic service! I WANT MY MONEY BACK AND WILL NEVER PURCHASE FROM GAME AGAIN!!! STILL WAITING!

Pathetic service and do not care attitude
On the 20th Sep I bought a compter stand from Game Southgate, a week later when I went to collect I was simlply told it was out of stock and I would be contacted after they arranged for another one. We are now in November, countless phone calls have been made to the store to follow up but the dont care attitude of staff and management hasn't assisted the lack of customer passion and willingness to help is ridiculous.

I've dealt with Sibusiso, Sly Ncube, Paul Masuku and many others but it seems there's no sense of urgency and I feel like I have to follow them around as if they owe me a favour no accountability whatsoever. I'm a loyal customer of Game because of the quality brands they keep and the affordable prices but that without customer care is worth nothing and now I'm pleading with someone with an obsession for customers (If they do exist in that store) to intervine because this is fustrating now. The economy is not looking good the money and time I spend on constant visits and calls to the store is not picked from a tree but earned so please can this matter be sorted and please get your house on track because you rely on customers to exist and stay in business.

Never purchase extended warranties from Game
I purchased what i thought ws the best microwave, 40lt Samsung, with an extended warr in 2006. In 2008 jst after the warr expired the microwave packed up, bt the extended warr kicked in. Since then this is now the 3rd time i'm sending it in for repair. According to the Management they cant replace this even though the same problem is a consistant defect. What a Load of BULL!! As for the Warr manager..GOPAL, he is useless, I'm sure he makes good decisions but today was full of ****, upon the last repair the person that we picked the mwave up from said that it should be replaced if this re-occurs. Today when i spoke to the Service Manager @ Gateway Fazil, he understood the problem and agreed that there should be a replacement, however said that i need to speak to Gopal to authorise it. Gopal started off trying to help, but became an arrogant unassisting salesman into the conversation. I then spoke to the branch manager Chris to try and see if maybe he'd understand he did say that i need to send it in as well... WHAT THE HELL!!

IS THERE ANYONE IN THE COMPANY WITH THE GUTS TO SAY THAT THIS ONE UNIT IS FLIPPANT FAULTY AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED???WHAT A USELESS SERVICE FRONT!!

Experienced an extreme case of 'I do not care, I just work here'
I experienced an extreme case of 'I do not care, I just work here' when returning damaged goods at GAME.

Instead of explaining what must be done to get my product replaced, the customer service assistant and the customer service manager just referred to their company care process and claimed they could not help me.

After a long discussion where I as the customer deducted how to circumvent the company care process though asking the right question, I was able to get my product replaced. But there was no suggestions or ideas from the store´s side and the customer service people were as helpful and charismatic as a brick stone...

My only feedback to GAME is: Time to change your customer care staff or give them a proper customer care training and monitor real customer satisfaction...or you WILL loose customers and business. (Never underestimate the power of Word-Of-Mouth!)

I will never set foot in another Games store again
I see that many people, not only myself experience this type of attitude from Game staff members. This is certainly disappointing, and utterly disgusting. It is a fact that the staff dont even have knowledge of the products they sell. Game responded by saying that they would like to see me back in their store again. I can assure you that I will NEVER set foot in another Game store again, and I will advise others not to go there as well. I prefer shopping at other stores, where I get quality service!

I am absolutely horrified with the bad service that I receive from your stores
I am absolutely horrified with the bad service that I receive from your stores in Brooklyn and Centurion. I asked the staff in the games department about some video games that were advertised, and they did not even know where anything was. They kept sending me to another staff member, but they had the exact same problem! They know nothing! Your staff are just standing around and chatting away with eachother, not at all willing to help the customers. Even at the tills, the staff have such a terrible attitude, and they bark at us! They are not polite or professional at all!

I finally walked out of both Centurion and Brooklyn stores, because I am not prepared to pay for such horrible service!

Chip cards not good enough for Game stores
Big was my surprise when I attempted to pay by credit card for my shopping at Game in the Centurion Lake Shopping Centre, and being told that they can't process payments made by credit cards with chip technology. Having recently been issued with a new credit card by my bank, containing a micro chip, I have not experienced an issue anywhere with payment. Even small retailers keep a mobile credit card payment unit in order to process payments with these new cards.

But clearly not Game. After spending half an hour in the shop picking up various items, I proceeded to a pay point. Upon handing over my credit card the teller told me they were having issues processing payments with these cards at the tills. This is usually where they bring a mobile unit to process the payment, She proceeded to call a supervisor who then informed me that they can't process payments made with chipped credit cards.

The total amount was quite high and as a rule I don't carry cash with me. So I asked her what we could do and she shrugged her shoulders. At this point I took my card and left. If Game can't keep up with technology I'll take my money to a retailer that does! Game won't see me again!

Excuses, excuses, excuses and no service
On Saturday I took my vacuum cleaner back to Game as I have an Extended Warranty and the thing is not working. I was told that as it was a new store they did not have transport to take items out for repair and would only be able to do this from 01 November. When I said that that was okay, I was told that that was too long and that I should take the item to another Game Store. I said that I didn't mind the delay and was again told to take it to another store. Now surely if another store has the vehicle to take it out for repairs, then that store could also just collect the item from this store and take it where it needed to go. New store, first and last time I will visit it and will make sure that I let everyone know how bad the service is ... did I say service... there was NONE!!!

No microwave even after payment has been made
I'm complaining on behalf of my Mother who has bought a LG Microwave for cash on the 03 October 2009 was assisted by Michael and she has been told it was out off stock and she would be called back once they have it in store and has paid already, she has been to the store to enquire as she has not had any call from anyone at Game when she go there she was given attitude by the Guy who was assisting her who asked whether she has paid cash or not which sounds as though if she had bought it on credit she has not right to complain either and was told she would be called last week Thursday 15 October 2009 as they should have it by then in store and till to date my mother and father are the one making follow ups and she has not received any call to let her know what’s happening, I’m will be exposing Game for this Bad service my mother has waited from the 3rd October till today it’s the 19October no call no Microwave went it delivered tomorrow if not we want our money back as I’m sure there are a lot of Stores out there who would appreciate our Business rather than Game has treated us so far.
