newbiee 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2007 tell them that if shipment not arrive on time.. and goods is delay for delivery.. u will complain to CASE and ask to compensate... be firm.. and argue back... if shipment is delay then y nobody call up and inform.. this show how well customer service is... complain to their manager or person in charge... scared them abit... best ask a guy to call... if u are a gal lah...no use calling case, I called up case purely because of the delivery issue I encounter with winter (same comp as Red apple) and I cited can the consumer refuse delivery of a item once the delivery date has been miss several time and the answer is no I will still have to accept the item even if its one month late.Wat consumer can do is not to accept the order if its wrong and only pay up when eventually the correct item is receive.Anyway they wont offer a refund but u can exchange for another item of similar value but they will charge the item as per the original selling price and not the package price, I customised my study table and was quoted $1500 but later whan I wan to exchange they quoted me $800 and include a whole bunch of stories.

ChocoLatte2005 0 Report post Posted July 6, 2007 Hi!I'm also getting nervous about Red Apple (Sungei Kadut)....my salesman is also Kenny! The thing is, we selected our dining set mths ago (we even went down a 2nd time to CONFIRM our final choice of color & table top type), yet he still call up to tell us the dining set we've selected is no longer being manufactured! We're going down YET AGAIN to re-select....and with all these negative comments about Red Apple, i'm really afraid there'll be delays in deliveries....

The sales person promised to deliver on 23 Jun which was about 3 weeks later. The day before the promised delivery date, I called up to confirm the delivery and it was when they told me that the shipment has not arrived. I queried why they did not inform me earlier and had to wait till I called up, the sales person just replied nonchalantly that there's nothing they can do with the delay and promised they will deliver in two weeks' time (on 14 July).After we have made known our displeasure, he then offer to send us a loan sofa one week later (30 Jun) while waiting for our set to arrive. Reluctantly we agreed as we have already moved into our new house for more than 3 weeks and have been without a decent place to sit.On 30 June, we cancelled all our appointment to wait for the delivery of the loan sofa. The sofa was supposed to be delivered before 6pm but we waited for the entire day and nothing arrived. We tried calling the salesperson for more than 4 times and were always told that he's serving customer and will call us back. When we requested for another person to assist, their reply was no one else is available.Eventually we managed to reach the sales person only the next day and all he did was apologise without giving any valid reason for the non-delivery. The loan sofa only came after much trouble and I even had to take leave as they apparently can only arrange the delivery on a weekday!Given the earlier bad experience, I decided to call them up earlier on 13 July to confirm the delivery. AGAIN I was told that the shipment has not arrived. This time I was utterly frustrated and informed them that I want to cancel my order. The salesperson replied that there's nothing they can do about the delay and he will get his sales manager to call me back.I only managed to reach the sales manager on 14 Jul after I called up a number of times. We argued for almost half an hour on the phone and his only reason is that it's not his company's fault for the delay. He refused to let me cancel my order stating that the contract does not allow me to do so. I told him that I will be reporting this to CASE if I do not get a satisfactory reply and he just say that I won't have a case even if I report them!Nevertheless, the conversation ended that he will speak to his management about my case and revert and I"M STILL WAITING. I'm just waiting to see what lame excuses he will come back with.PLEASE INFORM ALL YOUR FRIENDS & RELATIVES TO AVOID BUYING FROM RED APPLE FURNITURE! They have 3 outlets - Kaki Bukit, IMM and Sungei Kadut. My intended housewarming was postponed countless times due to their empty promises and we have to suffer so much inconvenience for more than 1 month without a proper sitting and dining area. And it's not as if their furniture is very cheap. I just hope no one need to go through the agony like I did. Afterall, moving into your new place should be a happy affair. It was just unfortunate that mine has to be marred with such a bad experience from an incompetent company! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
