Not sure if these mattresses are repaired ones, swopped ones or just poor quality?????
On 19 November 2019 my mom took me to OK Furniture Steeldale to buy me a new bed for Christmas against my will. As my old EDBLO 5 - Crown was 10 years old and in perfect condition and no squeaks. Hesitantly I decided to choose a new bed. Saw the Horizon was on promotion for R5999.00 so I specifically asked the sales lady, will this bed take my weight as I weigh 125kgs. And my husband is a little smaller than me. She said yes. So, my mom paid for the gift and it was delivered. In a very short period time, the base was squeaking and I called the OK. The base was swopped. T hen the mattress springs was making terrible clacking noises on both sides’ edges. But even worse, this was during April / May 2020 lock down and I battled to get hold of OK. And the mattress even showed ditches and the squeaking got worse. The mattress was swopped in July 2020. Not even 7 days later the very same thing, squeaking edges and springs all over the bed is clacking. Eventually an assessor of EDBLO called me and said they will swop. Never heard anything till last week 12th October 2020 to say they will delivery within one week. Thursday, 15th October 2020, they delivered the once again new mattress. But really the is the worst of worse. Same night squeaking and cracking mattress. Deep ditches and this mattress is hurting me so bad. It actually feels like I am sleeping on the base. Now is the question, was this a returned mattress that was repaired or what the heck? We Paid R5999.00 on promotion for this bed???? I want this whole bed exchanged and is expecting a firm bed, no squeeks and ditches till it is old and worn the way it should be. If I wanted a Kartle bed, I would’ve keep my antique bed. Maybe just refund me then I can go to Sealy or Dial -A-Bed where I can get much better quality. This is a disgrace.
And then the collection slip says condition fair. However, mattress is clean and no defects except for complaints. OK Slips information as per below:-

I just bought couches at ok and made an agreement that my installment will be the 1st of each month, on Wednesday I received a call informing me that I'm getting paid onthe 15th so I must pay onthe 17th.i won't be bullied by you guys and sales people, I have signed a contract and if have a problem bring my deposit and take you couches. My salary day it's not you concern, it's my constitutional right to choose a day to pay my debts. I will pay on our agreed dates, I won't be bulliet by you.

Afternoon sir/madam
I'm complaining from Mahikeng - North West Province in South Africa.
On the 7th of October 2020 I bought washing machine on your house or store, after I paid for machine, they said they ran out of stock and I understood their matter. Yesterday Sammy called me to collect machine when I get there they say there's a network or system problem, I waited for a day without any assistance and I understood since it wasn't a matter that they had control over. Today again around 2pm they called saying I should come and collect machine, because I'm a student and I'm busy with my work, I asked them to collect it tomorrow, the respond that I got is that they'll sell it to another customer yet I paid full payment to secure machine.

My wife bought a connect laptop on the 03 Oct 2020 and when the sales person brought the unit to her, she picked up that the laptop is open and it's a secondhand. The store could not provide her with a new laptop and she demanded a refund right there and then. She was told that the store does not have money to do a refund. How pathetic is that? To our surprise my wife was told by Angie at Van der Walt, to drive to Ok Gezina for a new laptop (at my wife's expense). The next day my wife phoned Angie to confirm if she can send me as the husband on her behalf and she was told that there wont be any issues as long as I have all the documents including her ID. Right there Angie change her tune saying there is no stock at Gezina. My wife then demanded a refund and she was advised that she can go to any OK with the papers for refund. My wife asked if she can send me to OK Pretoria North and Angie granted everything ok with no hassle. She said my wife can send me with her ID and invoices. To my shocking surprise I was told when I got there this afternoon just after 2PM that my wife needs to be present. I then phoned Angie while I was in the store and she got very defensive and said she can't help me cause she is at home. This is a SCAM that needs to be shared on all social platforms. We don't owe OK a cent and my wife trusted your store but its obvious that your stores can't be trusted. My wife and I could be earning interest on our money if we did not give it to OK. We made to drive from pillar to post with no help. You can't be trusted. We demand the following: 1.Our refund. 2. All our expenses of driving up and down to be compensated. 3. All calls we made to be full paid for by OK. 4. Our time is precious and expensive and that needs to be compensated as well. We hope this will be resolved to our happiness from the pain you caused us and if not we will take some steps further to get the satisfaction due. My attempt to speak to your OK Manager at Van der Walt failed as I was told that he or she is off and when I asked to speak to the person in charge I was kept on hold for more than 20min. I phoned again and no one answered the phone. I was not surprised at all, this is what OK is all about I guess. Misleading and cheating customers. Your staff can't be trusted.
We will never walk into OK Furniture Stores, NEVER

I bought a bed two months ago and have been calling OK Steilloop branch for the past two months and they cannot deliver. I also bought a stove and microwave in pretoria branch Quagga mall and they have confirmed with OK Steillopp that they have the goods, but when I travelled to fetch from Pretoria, they told me they dont have at store. What a pathetic branch. All I want is refund and will go to the other furniture store, as OK steilloop does not commit themselves to customers and they dont keep their promise.

Ek wag vir omtrent vier dae vir terugvoering omtrent my wasmasjien. Ek dink dit is baie sleg van Whirlpool mense om geen oproep te maak inverband met die regstelling van die produk nie. Ek het die wasmasjien gekoop in Kroonstad by OK FURNITURE. Baie dankie Charmaine Botha.

I made arrangements to pay my arrears account up to date but still a lady phone me regardless and said that a complaint was lodge against my name. I am very unhappy because they did not follow procedures to deal with my situation in a corrective manner. This can bring my credit score down. The last payment made on my account was in July 2020 and the arrangement was that I will make a payment again on the 15 September 2020.
