Purchased a lounge suit 5 years back from Born Furniture...(Now, apparently known as "Chesterfield) Workmanship was absolutely shoddy and a total disaster. Contacted them. They took back the furniture, with no improvement to the Workmanship. We then requested for a full refund. They were not prepared to give back a full refund. Told me that I will only get back what they sold the suite for. They were going to short pay me R11000 to what I actually paid for it. We refused to accept the offer and decided to take the legal route. It was after 2 years of legal battle, the owner of Born Furniture, Jacob Bornman" decided" to refund the money, on proviso that I remove my original review of this entire debacle from"Hello Peter". I then contacted "Hello Peter" to remove my review, due to the fact that he will refund us our money only if we remove my review ,which was then removed by "hellopeter" We were then asked to provide our banking details, in order for the refund to be made to us, and months passed by with still NO refund. I then contacted his attorney, and was advised by them, that they were under the impression that the money was refunded to us and claimed that they were no longer representing him. We then continued pursueing the matter with our attorney's and it still is being pursued, with NO Money returned to date, and no lounge suite( R50 000 + interest) ...We have now discovered that he no longer trades under the name of "Born Furniture", but under "Chesterfield". He has shut his doors at his previous premises where he was trading as Born Furniture where the Sheriff had tried to deliver a warrant of execution and attachment order...only to discover he has moved to another premises, with a different name. I don't know how many other people he is owing money, to, but please be aware of this. The matter is still ongoing..... How many other people were or are in the same or similar position with this company, as we are..??? I have decided to repost my review on Hello Peter, to inform all .,
