This is the most unfriendly interaction Ive had with any store. I need to ask if the item I need to purchase is available in your store, instead of driving 30km to do it. This is IMPOSSIBLE. The idiotic telephone system takes you through hoops. I dont want this. I KNOW the store I need. Its Springfield. All I want to do is ask a HUMAN a simple question

As you know everything under one roof , so no running around. The specials are always value for money. Makro money sort of a loyalty benefit for regular shoppers. Covid rules strictly adhered to . Helpful pleasant staff. Ample security and parking with friendly car guards.

Prices are not bad, plenty of parking. Big up if you are a bulk buy-for-the-month type a person! Friendly staff and quick efficient service. Things are laid out such that no assistance is required.

Did you know that Makro has another 1 branches nearby? In Makro Springfield, you can buy discounted products featured in the latest weekly catalogue valid until 10.28.2020. Shop smart and you can save a significant amount on your shopping at makro. Take advantage of the great deals on Makro specials, and you can buy products from the Groceries category at less than half of the normal price.

The worst service in general and especially the worst customer service. Took back a brand new Epson printer( not used at all, not even switched on, blue tape on the product also still intact). The box was opened and found the scanner glass had a crack on one corner. Took it back to the store and straight away get told theres no warranty on physical damage (bear in mind this a brand new unused product). Been over 2 months now and they still refuse. Apparently thats nothing new with this particular store and customer service is worse compared to other Makro stores

Very busy, everything is properly on displayThe butchery especially was neat,clean and all the meats were properly packaged inviting the customer to inspect the productI found the Manager? Of the butchery extremely helpfull and friendly when I approached him about some of his product = muttonDue to illness I have been absent from Makro for about 3 yearsBefore that I was a constant shopper with many calls to the butchery - at all times in the old days I found THIS manager as per todayA real ambassador for Makro

Makro is a great shop especially because it has everything under one roof. However, the staff was really unfriendly. They dont care to greet and if you greet them the response shows disinterest. The lady at the fitting rooms was worse, she was even rude for no good reason and sounded irritated if you ask something from her. Even the cashier at liquor shop had a huge frown on her face.

Review №43

Today I went to return an item.It took over one hour to wait in the que .That pathetic and not of makro standards ,As I have returned items before.When I asked about the long wait I was told it was due to covid.As I mentioned earlier Ive been to the return department before even with three counters open . The service was faster and more superior.Totally disappointed as to the many others that joined the line and left with disgust.Please investigate as to see what went wrong and prove a better way forward

Review №44

No aircon in the store, it is horrific to stand in there just for a short while, cant imagine how staff cope the whole day in there. I was dripping with perspiration and I was only there for an hour. Surely a big retailer like Makro can afford to ensure we all shop comfortably and take their staff wellbeing a little more seriously? 😳 😳 😳

Its a great place to be, but they need to fix the issue of a shopping card, if you forgot it, there must be an option to insert your ID number to access your profile, instead of sending you to another section to make another card before you purchase.

Bought an oven online, carefully removed the packaging, tried to install oven however didnt fit, put oven back in original packaging, returned it to Makro Springfield. Received credit minus R200 for the packaging, because packaging was broken! Really? How are you supposed to fit an oven with the packaging on! Ridiculous, wont be back.

The staff were great. Store policy. Very! Very! Strict about wearing masks. Have people walking around the shop telling customers and staff to put there masks on properly. Disappointed about not being able to try clothes on at the shop. Can buy clothes and take them home. Try them on at home and then return them to the shop for credit. ?????? Whacked if you ask me.

Review №74

I made an online order and was pleasantly surprised when part of the order arrived 2 weeks earlier than I expected. That is where the pleasantness started waning as we found the clay fire pit we ordered smashed inside the box. I quickly put in a call to both the courier and the Makro call center. I found the call center rep empathetic and ready to direct me to fill out a return form which I did. I then received a follow up email stating the local store would follow up and fetch the damaged goods and replace it. That was May 24th. I was not contacted since. I made a second call and was again helped by a kind representative. But I still have not heard anything and really just want to enjoy the product we paid for long ago or receive our money back if it is too difficult to deliver on an order made. I would love to speak to a Springfield store rep who has the ability to give me real information and get things moving.

I have called countless times, sent emails and have been told the matter has been escalated. asked to be credited back the money into my account but no they just do not respond, worst online experience ever

Terrible store. I have spent some time here, buying an R8000 washing machine, R11000 TV and yet the service is still and will always be atrocious. Rude staff and dodgy characters in the store as well. Airconditioning doesnt work either so you want to get out asap!
