Bradlows Rustenburg very good customer service I bought evolution couches 16 March 2021 on 16 April 2021 reported faulty on them it took a week before the couches wer collected.27th April couches where collected guys who came where very rude they didn't even cover those couches imagine your hard earned money being treated like that, we wer told it would take 7days max for repairs.Its more than 7 days no communication or whatsoever until I sent an email I'm told couches are Stil at warehouse IL be informed when they will be repaired. I don't owe those couches I thought I had paid for quality I thought Bradlows was a reputable store but I regret I have to beg for service it's winter me and my family are sitting on the floor for something I have paid or I'm getting this because I AM BLACK I won't sit back and be treated like this I paid for those couches if I can't get what I paid for please give me my money back so I can go shop somewhere else if I can't be helped today media must realy know how we treated at bradlows.

I bought a Tv in Jan 2021 @ Southgate and it was delivered in Feb it worked until 2nd week of April, then the screen went black on the right side of the tv on it's own. I took the tv to the shop on 16-04-21 for a repair and i was told it will take up to 2 weeks. I called after two weeks and the lady told me the Tv is still in their store room @southgate branch, I was shocked. No sense of urgency, no turn around period given, no feedback. I was told no one knows when the technicians will collect the tv. This is not fair to me as a client. How do you hold your staff accountable if they are not given a turn around period to resolve a query. Please help me get my tv fixed asap and regular feedback would be nice.

Good Day

during end March 2020 we called Customer resolution on 0800 119933 spoke to Lebo with reference number 9000098885 asking for a payment holiday due to lock down. we were not aware that it was not granted and as per Lebo she advised that if the account was debited we could do a reversal. From July 2020 payment of the account went of as normal, then come November you people just take it upon yourselves to just debit two of the three accounts and again we had no knowledge of it. I was blacklisted for an error on your side. i need feedback asap failing which i am going to the ombudsman.

In December 2020 I bought a lounge suit at Bradlows Grahamstown. They told me they will deliver the following week. To my suprise a day or two after the purchase they delivered. Within a week of receiving the goods I noticed that the fabric is tearing and so I went to the store and report the matter. They said they were going to exchange the lounge suit. It's been five months now no delivery. When I go to the store the lady manager always say she will follow up. The worse thing is when I called head office they say they can't help me I must go to the store. I asked if I can take back the goods to the store and they say it's within my right. But when I tell the store manager that she says the goods will be taken as reposesses. I have been paying for goods I am not satisfied with and that is so very unfair. The way I am angry I am scared the next tym I go to the store all will break loose. I want my money back I no longer want anything from Bradlows ever.

Good morning. On the 31 March 2021. I bought a coach at Rustenburg Bradlows under Eunice management. And after 2 weeks i realized that one coach is damaged and it was Zanzibar coach for R17 000.i complained at Rustenburg store and they lay complain to HO.on the 04 May 2021 they came for pick up that coach. 4 weeks after i got a cal from the driver telling me that they told him to return that coach and they refused to repair it and I told the driver i don't want it and he must return back. If they don't want to repair that sofa please refund my money so that I can buy somewhere else cause til today they never called and they just keep quiet. That is the service that i got from Bradlows. Tickets no 1000471089.

Hi team,

Please note am not happy with the service am receiving from both restonic and bradlows my base has been broken since few days after receiving it, At first the matter was draking forever afterwards the issue was with the address they delivered was the one on the invoice, This was communicated with the store assistant to make sure they using the correct address, then i had to make follow ups again if it was changed to the correct address that i believe must not take a month and days,
Today i called to enquire on this number 0100131738 Doris told me all customer care consultant are on lunch this is a horrible service ever. My mattress is also affected too i will never recommend anyone to buy the bed as i had advised my friends and family to go buy 4 beds where bought at maponya after mine am so angry that i regret buying from there.

I bought a 3 piece bedroom suit for cash from Bradlows Durban City View.
When the furniture was delivered there is no piece that wasn't broken. The delivery people left the broken furniture at my house, I don't know why.
The shop promised to send a new delivery and to collect the broken one. More than 2 weeks later, numerous phonecalls im still waiting.
Today i went to cancel the order and they tell.me about 14 days to get my money. What rubbish is that? Yoh i don't even know why i went to Bradlows. Will never set foot in there again.
The manager is rude and always ducking and diving.

I cancelled a laybye beginning February 2021, been told to wait for 14 to 21 days. When I went to check as those days passed,was suprised that my cancellation was never attended. The Mazwi even showed me the file. That made me remember the attitude I received on my arrival for this cancellation, that it is not going to be attended soon nje ngendiske ndiyiyeke, blah,blah.... That disturbed a bit but contunued anyway./ It is not going to be attended anytime soon better live it. The manager when attending it gave me waiting days 3 to 14 days- another waiting. THEN BOOM ON THE 6th APRIL MY FILE HAD INCORRECT DETAILS AND WRONG INFORMATION BEEN SENT WHEN DECIDED TO GO AND CHECK. Again given another waiting period of 3 days. NO REFUND MADE TILL THIS DATE BUT EXTENSION OF 3 TO 7 DAYS.

I'm not complaining about the store listed above, however I returned my furniture and was told thwy will be auctioned and I will be liable to pay the difference which I consented to but it's been over a year now with no feedback from Bradlows but my account balance is still over R20000, each time I call I get sent from post to pillar I went to different branches no one can assist.
What must I do because this account is frustrating me, I'd rather have the furniture back and pay for it but I can't pay for furniture I returned.
My ID number is 9212190690083.

Can someone contact me with a way forward please.

I purchased a 32 inch Sansui TV that was on special at Bradlows Balfour park Vincent East London Eastern Cape on the 06/04/2021 when we got home on the same day when we plugged the TV I noticed the is a dark circle inside the TV and when I switched it on. When we returned to the store they told us the is nothing they can do for us. I don’t know what could have caused this as the is no crack on the screen. I would appreciate your assistance on the matter. I have attached photos of the tv as well as my slip.
