Don't buy Westinghouse individual fridge and freezer .

published

Purchased the individual Westinghouse Fridge (WRB5004SA) and Freezer (WFB4204SA) with individual concierge warranties. The Fridge door will not open once closed - you have to wait for over a minute before you can open the door. The Freezer door is the opposite, it won't close unless you push it hard. Waiting 3 weeks for service and still no action.

Worst After Sales Service

published

The worst after sales service. Extremely rude staff. I had purchased a food processor a few months back from Good Guys and one of the jugs stopped working. The store staff checked for the defect and sent it for repair. I have called the store twice and spoke to their rude staff. They dont have an ETA, no one is willing to help and they dont want to check with the repairer for its status. The food processor being an essential item in the Kitchen we are without it for the last two weeks and dont know when it will be repaired. Would never recommend Good Guys to anyone specifically the Prospect Store

Warranty 3rd party bad

published

Brought a TV it blew up. The rude unshaven bloke that works there said I had to contact the manufacturer. Even when ACCC said the good guys are responsible to deal with warranty Not a 3rd party. Contacted TCL
For the 3rd time every time I rang it was like they forgot this was nearly 3 months ago haven't even received a sms ! So just shop online everyone it's easy and warranty is not a problem!
And don't have to deal with a bloke with a little problem.
Still waiting for my TV ! Should have brought a Samsung!

Staff very unhelpful, i have been in 4 times to store, number of phone call, still no help after 2 months.

published

went into Campbelltown (nsw) to get air con,10/01/2020 was talked into 3.5, it didn't do the job for small 3 bedroom house, had Panasonic come out to check, they told me that it is only for a bedroom, went into store, they said they would send a tech out to come see what size they should have sold, still not heard anything from them as i have been in to see them 4 time. Still nothing, so as far as service i don't think they know what that is.

Where is the service???

published

I go in there because It’s close to work and home. Plenty of staff but nearly every time they are just standing around chatting and will look at you but not approach. Very disappointing

Need staff

published

Good guys advertises extensively and often have decent deals. However, some stores have a serious lack of staff available to provide any service at all. The amount of times I have waited for service for help with the purchase of products is ridiculous. I will say this depends on the store. Frankston is not great for customer service and after waiting around for what felt like an eternity, we left. We went to the Dandenong store where we were served promptly and given time, information and real assistance. We bought a washing machine and very happy in the end.

concierge is a con

published

Bought a fridge about february last year.
Paid for extended warranty and was offered three $20 vouchers a year.
Got the first one pretty promptly, the second only after several phone calls which included GG denying they had any responsibility for the scheme, now over a year and two reminders and no 3rd voucher.
We have practically furnished our house from GG, no more and lodging this, hope it hurts.

Zero stars

Just bought an Acer laptop with 8GB RAM for $729 from the Noarlunga Store. It struggled to load web pages on fast internet both at home and in store. My crusty old $400 laptop with 2GB RAM loads the same pages twice as fast. I brought the new laptop back for an exchange as it was not fit for purpose. The supercilious staff gave me looks that clearly they thought I'm an idiot.
They argued with me, even though they witnessed the page struggling to load. They then charged me a 10% restocking fee to return it, and tried to make me feel grateful that it wasn't 20%. I will be referring this to consumer affairs.

Friendly but Incompetent

Had a broken TV. They pointed to Samsung, they blamed the repair shop, they said its the Good Guys, so on so on.......1 moth later we got a replacement after I freaked out. It is sad I had to raise my voice to get attention.

Fantastic Service

Arriving at the Good Guys Store in Bayswater we could see that they are very busy. We waited under 5 mins to be served and the woman was very helpful. We purchased 3 items and are very happy with the service and staff at the Bayswater store.

Poor customer service

published

I went to Nunawading store today. The store looks good but the customer service is poor. I was interested in buying new a coffee machine from them. Just want a opinion from the staff which is better.
I approached one of them and asked if she can assist me but instead of saying give me some time or I can see if someone else can help you, she refused straight away “ we are busy stacking up others” no sorry or anything else. Be polite guys, you not gonna win anything being arrogant. Better go to Dandenong store the staff there is very nice and good in closing deals.

Very nice, easy to deal with

Had to return a kettle that was faulty. Took it in to good guys Mornington with no reciept, knowing it was on their system, and they exchanged it immediately with no issue. Super friendly service everytime.

Concierge Service is a Scam

published

Have been waiting 4 weeks (to date) for a washing machine repair. Even though they promise ‘exceptional service’, they provide no service. It is exceptionally poor. Save your money! Go elsewhere.

Totally unreliable

published

We bought a stick vacuum 12 months ago and purchased the 3 yr Concierge Gold Service Extras membership for $55. The stick vacuum is wonderful but the Gold Service membership is a joke. The promise of VIP treatment offering special promotions including giveaways, competitions and invitations never happens and the promise of receiving 3 x $20 vouchers each year never happens unless you chase them up. Emails are not answered. Phone calls rectify the problem and the customer services team always use exactly the same word-for-word excuse as to why they do not send vouchers. Always technical problems that they are trying to fix !!!

Went for help with old tablet....which stopped working.

My old tablet information was all down loaded without my permission.
Was never asked if l wanted to purchase.
I'm a pensioner ....and feel taken advantage of.....missinformed......railroaded....bullied....coerced into a purchase.....which l didn't need in the end .
This was a hard sell and borders on manipulation and deception to force a sale.
What can l do?

Thank you for ypur suggestions.
I went straight back to state my position .....Including how l felt railroaded....Infront of the store manager.
I was basically dismissed....On the grounds of encryption by samsung of the tablet....Of my name ownership and identity....Makies it impossible to return.
I politely explained how l felt whilst being railroaded ....And explained that it was not ok to take over...The way the sales person did.
To use my lack of technical knowledge. ...And help requiring inferior and vulneracle position....As well as failing to inform me of the cosequences if he went ahead with the transaction...... Or actually tell me that this is the point of no return...Or actually ask me if l want to go ahead with the purchase....Is railroading shoddy salesmanship.
This I would expect from a dodgy car salesman...But not from a reputable store ....Who call themselves
The good guys.
Is the information on encription actually true?
Has anyone else ever expeienced similar sales tactics?
Who could l contact above the floor manager.
I feel the young man needs to be educated......To stop this from happening to someone else.
