Reviews and Complaints

Yesterday I went to Zevenwacht mall at kuilsriver western cape, met a lady and said she wants to see if I qualify for the funiral cover told her not going to agree on paying anything until I see paperwork. She promised that she's not adding me but just assuring me she's checking now I received sms witch state I have a policy will like to complain and not committing myself to anything because I'm unemployed

Would like to cancel the policy as it was made under fails claims other wise I sue the representative

I am very upset being to store on th14th and 15th and was treated very bad as staff was not helpful, as I have pharchased 2 pair toughees for my kids was did not receive help at 6 accasions I have being at the store 4 times myself and two times sent a family member as size was incorrect I spent so much on transportation to change size because of staff being incompetent I will be taking it to media if no response as I had to call on my family members phone while there in the store to change size to a manager in order for help as I lost time at work. I will be going to media if no response as soo as possible.

I bought buccaneer school shoes at Bloemfontein hyper mall, my child has worn then yesterday only and they are now torn it seems like it's a factory fault
Now I went to arkermans botshabelo mall to get a refund the manager by the name of Thabiso said he will not help me with either refund nor exchange as that is a store damage, I have to go back to the store where I bought the shoes at I'll get my refund there.

What I don't understand is the company arkermans is the same company whether is bloem, gauteng or botshabelo but why am I told to go back to Bloemfontein? And just f to let u know I only bought those shoes in bloem because I work near fleurdal mall but now I'm on leave I can't travel 60km whilst the is arkermans in botshabelo
Please assist on this matter, and again train the cashiers and managers on how to handle the queries, they can make fun of a customer that's unacceptable, I will not allow them to make fun of my situation

Please address that matter
Kind regards

I went to the store to purchase a phone A03 Core when I got there the phone price was R1 499 and the other A03 core was R1 799 I then asked the lady working there what was the difference between these two she said it was network then I asked for the R 1 499 one by the time I went to pay the price suddenly increased and they said I must pay R1 799 then I asked how then they said they were robbed on the 31st of December and I asked how is that my problem but they kept quiet. I was with my fiancé who is white when the incident happened and I am a black lady, on top of that we waited soon long to get the phone and the service was so bad. The cashier didn't give us the phone immediately we were told to wait then ended up leaving cos she was taking so long via processing n getting a hold of the phone... then came back late to pick up the phone...

My name is nkagiseng Tshenatshe and I'm done paying my ackermans account I have called ur attorneys about my paid up letter so they refer me to u to get it when I'm going to get my paid up letter cause they said they have emailed you my documents so that I can get my paid up letter I also approach ur branch but I didn't get any assistance so plz help me

On the 26th of December 2022 around 11-12, we went to Ackerman's in Springs mall as I had to exchange an item that I brought for a bigger size. As I was looking for my size, there was a rack that had marked down sales and took the item in my size and went to the counter, I asked what is the price on this item as it was on the marked down side and it was more than a mark down, so I asked the lady at the till how can it be, because it was at the marked down side, she then asked the manager and the manager Winnie was so rude and said that the item was not on the mark down side and I asked her how did I get it there then and then she said in a rude manner that she doesn't know it must be customers that had to put there. So, as I got irritated, I had to pay extra money in for that item (according to Winnie it was not there), that even the till lady was just standing there and didn't know what to say. I then told Winnie that she needs to make sure that the clothing is on the right place and labelled. she said, yes, I will in a rude way. I wasn't pleased about it. instead of helping the customer, she preferred to be rude. I'm not angry about paying extra, I'm angry because of how the lady spoke to a customer, while there was a long que, I don't know if it was race as I'm a white lady and so far, the only white person that was there.

I was at Akermans Greenstone branch on 29 December 2022, and the shop had just closed at 18:00, I quickly rushed to the till points and to my dismay all cashiers were busy cashing up and I had to stand there watching all of them about 4 or so while only one cashier was serving another customer on top of that she also let another customer to cut the que in front of me, she eventually serviced me about 15 minutes later and I told her that what was happening was not acceptable for all cashiers to close tills while there was customers in the store and I knew that for a fact because I also worked as cashier. The treatment I received from that branch was the worst I have ever seen in my life, staff members just ignoring a customer's like it was normal, I also took a video of the incident of which I can send on request but I will attach the slip for ease of reference to collaborate the times and dates stated above.

I went to Shoprite/ Checkers to redeem the voucher but it was not working. I have tried on escalate this matter to Ackermans but they are unable to help. How can they announce winners and gives voucher numbers that are invalid, I was so embarrassed at the till when the voucher declines and have to take the things i was trying to buy back , I'm so disappointed at Ackermans

My name is not Muzi Mndebele. I do not have and have never had an account with Ackermans. I do not have a Family Funeral scheme membership with Ackermans, IUA or anyone else. I keep on getting messages, most recently on 29/11/2022 at17:24, addressed to Ms Mndebele telling her to make sure her Ackermans account is up to date with enough credit available. The final line is: Hollard Licenced Life Ins & Auth FSP. TSs ans Std rates apply.

I have tried to tell Ackermans about their error, or someone's error using their name, but the messages keep on coming. They do not look entirely convincing and I want them to stop. If they are genuine, then someone needs to find Ms Mndebele's real contact details and tell her about it.

Last Tuesday I purchased a Premio x85 device @R1399.00 from your Darling Street branch in Cape Town for my daughter. On Sunday she reported to me that she cannot connect to our home w-fi and as well as at my office.

Monday and Tuesday there was a major taxi stayaway and that prevented me from coming through. I then reported the matter earlier today and I was told that my waranty period had expired, therefore could not do much for me as a store.

They then promised to escalate the matter to head office via email and they were not too sure about the turn around period. They made a copy of my proof of purchase and took my contact details.

I left the store not satisfied at all by the way that the above matter was handled. I therefore choose this route to contact your team, with the hope that a better result will prevail.

I'm complaining about the poor service I had today at ackermans orange farm they chase us out of the store while we were choosing to buy at around 17h45 and they rushed us to finish cause they wanted to close and it was 15 minutes before 18h00 and they were already started to clean and making it impossible to move around the shop and chose the clothes we wanted to buy and that was the worst experience of shopping the managers name is sakhumzi nkondlo who was cleaning and giving us this attitude, I'm really not happy about this

I am based in Namibia, employed in Windhoek. Applied for an account on the 23/09/2022, was called the following week, four times by different employees for confirmation of my application. The last consultant I spoke to just had to confirm with our Human Resource department and get back to me, but until now, I have no feedback. I even provided the direct mobile number of my HR, as she simply had to do employment confirmation only before advising me to which store I must go provide proof of the necessary documentation.
