Terrible service
The thing I just dont understand is, iv been reading about all the bad service the staff of truworths is giving and the terrible service im getting from the staff, especially from northridge mall in bloemfontein, and yet you dont do anything about it, I wonder how many clients do u loose because of the terrible service, or do u also just dont give a damn... I kno we live in sa where it is terrible all over, but seriously people, u can do so much better, I think u can triple ur income with good service, anyway I still like ur clothing and trying to ignore the terrible and grumpy service..
Recommendation: Ignore the Terrible and Grumpy service,

Sandton Branch
My is Dr Richard Kapunga S.A permanent Resident, so I behold the green ID; I’m a new Truworth Account holder that I registered via internet.
As normal process I supposed to go to complete my registration from the truworth shop, because I live in Sandton so I went to Sandton mall.
My current green it completely original and nothing wrong with it, I can be honest that it got a bit wet and I’m in the process to replace it with the home affairs.
When I got to the shop they way I was treated was so discriminating as if i was criminal, just because I did not have smart ID.
I had to be refused the service I went home with a big regret.
My account number is: [protected]
I’m ready to complain in person then you will see my ID that your agent refused; and treat me as criminal.
If this how you will be treating your valuable customers then it fine; you can cancel my account.
Best Regards
Dr Richard Kapunga
Claimed loss: I want confrontation with your agent that discriminated me.
Desired outcome: Confrontation; i must get a apology from them after verification that my ID book it original

It’s a red skirt from my husband for my birthday it came as a gift
My husband got me a gift from Truworths and now I’m trying to exchange it the shop is refusing to assist me. What should I do with the skirt. It’s small. What kind of a policy that only accommodates those with accounts and not those of us who pay cash. Are u saying your store is for accounts only. If that is the case please write on the door so those of us who pay cash can go elsewhere.
Desired outcome: Can I exchange the skirt or you give me my money back.

I'm suffering as the amount was supposed to pay for my damaged car.
I overpaid my Truworths Account on the 02nd of February 2024. I went to the store after realizing that I overpaid on the 8th of February 2024. I was told that I will be paid back on daily basis depending on the amount they have on the store. In agreed and they called their Head office, the 1st lady who asked me verification question claimed that I failed it, and I must come back the following day which is today the 9th of February 2024. what amaze me is when I was told I even failed question 1 on verification which is what is your name? is also funny as it was not answering verification question with Truworths.
I hereby demand my money back in full transferred back to my account as I can't do verification everyday which I will fail my name. I'm willing to send the affidavit stating my account details and all the proof of payment including the bank statement that my money may be paid back as the Truworths consultant Amber said the is no other way, and others says the is.
please assist me to get my R9524.18 back.
Thank you.
Desired outcome: The amount of R 9524.18 be paid bac to my account. I'm ready to send certified copies of my ID, Truworths Account card, affidavit and bank statement that the amount may be paid back .to my account as i paid via EFT

On the 9th of January 2024 I made a payment on my account directly at the store. Till today the 16th of January I'm receiving letters that I haven't paid, went to the store and was told payment is not showing even when I have provided the proof of payment. I'm really upset as this has now impacted my credit score badly. I could not even take out a contract at other stores due to this issue.
Desired outcome: Fix this issue and remove dunning notices on my name.

Customer service from the call center
I can confirm that my installment was paid late because I was in a foreign country and had no access to my bank account. Today at 16:14 I received a call saying that my installment was delayed and underpaid. I attempted to correct the lady, because I paid according to what is on my statement and also attempted to explain my reason for the delay. I was treated with utter disrespect and rudely interrupted. She had respect and clearly did not want to listen or even attempt to understand.
Desired outcome: Staff should be trained to have respect even if clients pay late or not.
