Immediately I entered this phone accessories line in the market, two guys rushed me at the same time. But one was faster.
The first guy came and started asking me, “What do you want to do?”
So, I brought out my phone to explain.
Before I could even talk properly, another guy rushed in, held my hand and said, “Fine girl, come this side.”
The first guy pushed him immediately and said, “Can’t you see she is my customer? I go beat you for here o.”
Both of them just started exchanging words there.
I told the first one, “It’s okay nah, I will go to another place if una wan fight o.”
He then turned and told me, “Just follow me to my shop. Na so dem dey do. Once they see person talking to customer, they will come and drag the customer.”
I said okay and followed him.
When we entered his shop, he pointed where I should sit down.
Okay! I sat down and brought out my phone again.
I told him, “Look at my phone, I want to change the...”
Before I could finish, he shouted, “Ahhh! Na big phone be this o. Na machine you dey use. If you wan swap am to this new upgraded version, no problem. But you go add small money.”
I just kept quiet and brought out my handkerchief to fan myself because he was not allowing me talk and I was already getting tired.
He saw how I was fanning myself with my hankerchief and asked me, “Heat dey do you?”
I said, “Yes! Heat is much.”
He said, “No problem. Let me buy you cold mineral.”
Next thing, he sent his brother outside to buy chilled drink for me.
I collected it and thanked him.
I then continued with my complaint.
I said, “Like I was saying before...”
He interrupted again, “Relax nah. Finish your mineral first, I dey here with you nah.”
I said okay, thanked him again and continued drinking my mineral.
After I finished, I trashed the empty can.
The guy smiled and said, “Now you have relaxed. We can now talk.”
I smiled too and said, “Yes, thank you very much.”
Then I continued my explanation again.
I said, “My phone fell down in the office and the screen guard broke badly and it is affecting the touchpad. So I came to change the screen guard.”
This boy gave me one bad side look ehh...
He asked, “Is that the only thing you came for?”
I said, “Yes.”
He said, “You’re not swapping your phone?”
I said no.
“You’re not buying another phone?”
I said no.
He continued: “Na only screen guard you come change?”
I said yes.
Then I asked him how much.
I already knew screen guard in the street is 1k, so I even told him, “Since I came to market by myself, just do ₦800 for me.”
This man looked at me for some seconds and said, “My own screen guard is ₦2,500.”
Eh??? Screen guard ₦2,500 for wetin nah?
The man said, “It’s ₦2,500 because of your drink.”
I said, “Howwww??? Did I ask you to buy drink for me? I thought una dey do customer services here.”
He said, “Customer services ke? For screen guard of 1k? Madam bring my money joor.”
Heeey! And that was how we started arguing o.
In the end, I paid ₦1,500 and he fixed the screen guard.
As I was leaving there, anger just full my body.
Why would he ask me to pay for my drink when I am his customer?
Omo!
I no go patronize them again o.
I don see say they no sabi customer services at all. 😩
