Pick n Pay poorest service to a loyal customer
Bought a Goldi 5kg Mixed portion, I only realised that it had a whole at the bottom when I tried to make lunch for my after school, went to pick n Pay for a refund, the floor manager on duty referred me to a teller at kiosk, she did not give me a chance to explain, all she said was frozen goods are refundable within 15 minutes! Now how the hell was I supposed to know that, while I was still shopping? Pick n Pay Busy Corner Mall STOP taking us black people for s..t. Please read your T&C on frozen products. Pick n Pay Busy Corner your service is the poorest . My Smart Shopper x7777

The price I see should be the price I pay
Today I visited the Athlone branch. They were having a buy one get one free deal. So there was an error in pricing on four of my burgers amounting to about R20 each. At first the cashier took my packets and asked for it to be sent back as it was priced wrong. I then said is it my fault the pricing was wrong and asked to see the manager. The manager came who then said I could get the burgers for that price. My understanding is buy two and get the cheapest one free yes but I bought 4 different kinds of burgers so I still matched up the chargrilled burgers both at r64 for instance and the cheese burgers also both at R65 thinking that Way it makes it easier since I would be getting the 2nd packet of the same burger free. What the cashier then did was just scanned four of the larger priced burgers and didn't charge me for the four R20 packets. Had I known they were going to cheat me like this I would've paid individually. I only saw this when I got home so what was the point of the manager allowing me the mis priced item knowing they weren't going to charge me that price anyways. That's false advertising as well as misleading. They were the ones that made the mistake and the price the customer sees should be the price you pay. Busy Corner in Athlone u are a ******* and pathetic customer service. By calling the manager I actually thought he was linient he knew he was going to con me into believing I got it at that price. So disappointing

Camaflouging meat
I bought a 3pack steak mince today 11 June 2025.My daughter of 6 ask to help put the mince in the pot,I allowed her to do so but then I noticed with the last piece that the mince is black.I check rest of the mince and saw the outside of the mince is nice and red fresh mince and in the inside the mince are brown black..My mom taught me nwer to buy meat that's not nice and red it's old.Camaflouging the mince by putting old mince inside and fresh mince on the outside is disgusting and dishonest.Busy corner butchery inside pnp local has just made the well known busy corner butchera name fall.Me as a child and grown up now has been buying meat from busy corner butcher grassy park for years and never had they dissapoint.PNP local parow valley,busy corner butchery in your storee is giving you a reputation.Raymond Ackerman will turn in his grave for such horrible and dishonest service.

Poor customer service & inconsistent quality
I am disappointed with Busy Corner’s lack of response to customer complaints. I reached out regarding the Nippy Wors from Pick n Pay, which does not taste the same as the one from Busy Corner Grassy Park. I was told that Busy Corner would contact me, but I have yet to receive any feedback. The quality and taste of the Nippy Wors from Pick n Pay and Athlone are noticeably different from the one in Grassy Park, which was much better. If there is a difference in suppliers or recipes, customers deserve to know. Unfortunately, Busy Corner seems to ignore emails, which is very frustrating. I expected better customer service and consistency in their product quality.

Absolutely disgusted in Busy corner Athlone . I placed a online order with busy corner on the 2nd May .I received the order Friday the 3rd May 2024 . I usually buy at busy corner my monthly meat and I order online because it saves me time ..I work moday to Saturday and I'm only off on a Sunday so I found this to be so convenient and never really had issues up untill November 2023 when I called them to inform them that 1 item wasn't received which was a burger mix pack . the lady said she would direct me to the online manager I spoke to the online manager she said "she saw the burger mix being packed "she basically imp**** I **** because I told her I didn't receive it ,it wasn't in the box ..I was obviously put off by her telling me she saw it and they know they packed it and didn't feel like the back and forth so I left it at that ..fast forward I gave them another chance and placed a order with them now on the 2nd May 2024 after a few months ,AGAIN the same thing the burger mix was missing .I called them to tell them AGAIN they said the would transfer my call to the online manager I told her I received everything besides the burger mix and this is the 2nd time .she said AGAIN that she saw it being packed at this point I was extremely annoyed because this isn't the first time and she just happens to magically be around everytime they package my order .She said she will get her manager to call me back ..a Male called me back he said four people saw them package the burger mix ..so what shoudl happen now ,i told him he should tell me what must happen he is the manager I'm the customer I explained to him that this is the seccond time it's happening and hes basically telling me I'm lying and why would I spend over a thousand rand and then lie about a burger mix of R130 .He asked who was home to receive the order i told him i was at work and my 86year old grandmother was home but when they delivered I called her immediately and asked her what was in the box and she mentioned all items besides the burger mix so I know they didnt deliver it ..to which he responded "oh so it wasn't you ,you weren't at home when they delivered" I'm not sure what that is suppose to mean if he is implying that my 86year old grandmother stole a burger mix ,but their customer service is appalling to say the least .They definitely lost me as a customer .I am shocked that this is happening a second time and there repsonse is always 4people saw it being packaged,they are such a bsuy pkace but conveniently wjhen a person calls and complains everybody saw this and that and remembers each and every order .I was starting to get extremely frustrated and could see that this man wasn't going to be very helpful I told him its fine im not going to go nack and forth with him and ended the call .
