KINGFISHER

I am for the week at the ICC for a business conference and today the 25 July at 13:00 during the lunch break i decided to walk to Kingfisher to check how i can spend my money on tackle. I browsed around in Kingfisher check ing what i could get for the weekend but unfortunately time was of essence and i had to rush back for the meeting.
when i got outside the shop onto the pedestrian walkway the security guard from Kingfisher followed me and i asked me where did i buy my tekkies from, i asked him why he said it looks nice and new.I asked him why he asked me that he said he thinks i bought it from Kingfisher because he saw me browsing around the clothing section. I asked him you think that i stole it from this shop. He said i am a security gusrd and thats what i thought because i was browsing around the shop.
This chap was actually accusing me for stealing and i told him that if he thinks i stole it then he must have me arrested for theft. I wanted to take him up with the store mangaer but because i was fasting and getting late to get back to my meeting i left. He did not get any further with this.when i got back to my meeting i mentioned this to my other colleagues and they suggested i take this up with the mangaer and have them charged for fallsely accusing me of theft.
I am a customer of Kingfisher for the last 20 years AND FROM TODAY I WILL NOT GO TO KINGFISHER NOR WILL I SUPPORT THEM.

Have you at least contacted the store? As if not,venting on an open forum is not the right way to do during this time of religous observance, imho.
 
Hi Shady,

My sincere apologies on your experience you had in the Kingfisher! This is the first we have heard of the incident and we are investigating it further. Please can you PM me a contact number or alternatively can you contact Guy on 031 368 3903?

Our security function is out sourced and on the odd occasion, this type of incident does occur. We do strive to give you the best shopping experience possible and again a huge apology for ruining your lunch break!

Geez Shady after a statement like that the least you could do is respond to Super---Daaav. perhaps you should have gone back into the shop and asked for the manager ? Who wears "tekkies" to a convention at the ICC anyway.
