Tagging of baby garments
Good day I love your range if baby clothes however will stop shopping here as your items all have holes on them from the magnetuc tags with pins you attach to the garments. I don't know why these pins are nt put in seams instead of the front of the garments. Such incompetence of you fuys side damaging beautiful items and charging me full price for rejects you create! I am considering closing my account with ackermans and shopping elsewhere.
Desired outcome: Maintenance of quality of garments

Premio Cellphone S82
Good day. I hope that someone can assist me as this is a very urgent matter. I bought two Premio cellphones from your Vredenburg west coast mall, i had returned the one on the Monday and by the Friday i wanted to return the other one due to apps not working/freezing etc, unfortunately my daughter had class until late Friday and her deadline for assignment was on Friday ( the phone was bought for her) i could only visit the store again on Saturday the 15/05/21 i explained my situation but was informed that they could not assist me any longer. I could not, not go with my daughter as she needed to accompany me in order for her to choose a new handset. Now we are stuck with a phone that isn't working properly and i am out of a R1100.00. As mentioned i had already returned the other handset as there was malware issue with it. The quality of the premio handsets are obviously very poor and all the phones seem to have some or other issue. Is there anyway we can return the device and exchange it for another handset please. I appreciate your feedback and assistance. Kind regards. After sending numerous emails i have not received any feedback and still struggling with the phone.
Desired outcome: Money back or new handset - not a premio

custmer service slow becuase tills are never opened
the big store in eastgate Mall has front abd back tills which is good because its such a hugbe store and that makes serving customer faster however. All the time the back tills are never open whicjh causes long li ne in the fro nt tills and delays. i am regular customer and i have an account wigth you an d i live close by i am always at the store. if the store needs more staff gthe shoul hire and if its management they should attend to because this is absurd and time wasti ng for customers. service must be fast and attending to customers o ti me should be a priority.
I tried addressing this with the manager but everytime i go there till woujld be closed.what the use of having tills if yhou wont have people working
Desired outcome: open all tills a all times

Credit
Good day.
While making a payment of my credit account with Ackermans in December 2020, I was told that my account was in excess and my balance is a credit balance. The tellers explained to me that I do not owe anything but it's Ackermans who owes me R41 702.
All the tellers were surprised by this and they all explained that I can take anything up to R 41 702 without incurring any debt because Ackermans owes me this amount. I then took items and in January 2021, I receive a statement saying my debt balance is zero confirming further that I do not owe. But strangely in February 2021, the statement came saying I have a debt of R7000 and my credit balance is zero (meaning the 41 702 credit balance disappeared and the things I took in December were now a debt).
Ackermans is now tormenting me, demanding payment and I have stopped working now meaning I can not settle the debt. My cell number is [protected].
Please help me. Thank you very much.
Desired outcome: Ackermans must cancel the debt because I do not owe them but they owe me
Premio S51
Bought a Premio S51 phone on June 30 2020, By November less than months since the day of purchase It, was getting to hot while charging it & the battery expanded badly.

Desired outcome: replacement battery
Trading hours
I am waiting at the door of your Ackermans store at Tembisa mall. The trading hours are written 9-6 its 9:15 and the store is still not open. On of the staff memebr is still preparing the store at all of that. It is not far because if the trading hours say 9 and I I here at 9 and the store is still not open I am being inonvinced. We have to go to work not everyone comes to the mall to spend the day. Then it is useless to have a store near my place I'd it is not gonna benefit me or make things easy for me. No communication from the staff about the reasons for not opening no sign on the door to explain the inconvenience what type of service is this?
Desired outcome: Open the store at 9 if the trading hours are from 9
Dress that’s ripped at the seem
I purchase a dress for my daughter at the circus triangle store and few days later I noticed that it was ripped, tried to take it back to the store but the store is refusing to take it back as they say that the tag is gone!

Called customer care and still no help Reference number 693217
Desired outcome: Replace the dress

I Bought Pyjamas Yesterday At Sam Ntuli Mall. So I bought a bigger size since you can't buy pyjamas that are too tight. When i got home i realized that the pants are torn. I took them back today and exchanged the pants. Today when i got home with the other pants they were also torn. And the lady at shop told me that I'm not the first to return them. Most customers have returned them and were also complaining about the same issue. The Guy on the next till even said they should just reduce the prices of those pyjamas. I Can't be going up and down everyday with the same thing.
Desired outcome: I Would like to get my money back.

Ackermans harassing my domestic worker about MY ACCOUNT!
I want to know how exactly did ackermans get my domestic workers phone number.. she is in no way linked to my ackermans account. She has no idea I even have an ackermans account because that is my personal things. Yet ackermans at this time of the night is calling and harassing her and saying she is me and saying she is lying! What kind of customer service is this! They call me and they shout at me and are so rude to me so i don't answer their calls anymore! Now they are calling my domestic worker to shout at her! I paid them last month and I will pay them when I get paid again! I don't see why they are calling and shouting at my domestic worker about MY account! They even told her how much my balance is! I'm so disgusted in your collections department!
Complaining about phones
I'm very disappointed about Ackermans I bought phone during lock down last year May 2020 then I returned the phone because it was not charging they keep the phone at Promenade for about 7 weeks then I received the call to pick up phone but unfortunately they didn't fixed the phone they say the problem the pone is having scratche but the problem of the phone is not charging. I bought another phone I keep it for only 2 months its also not charging and I don't want to waist my time to return it also. Now I'm planning to pay Ackermans until I finished balance I'm sick and tired of their stories and closed the account.
