Dear prospective Etihad Passengers Please note that in South Africa you have to have nerves of steel before you board. We have booked and paid for flights, visas and accom. for Sat. 22 Nov. In spite of repeatedly telling Etihad that we will be leaving from our home town for Johannesburg on 20 Nov. we still have no visas. The gentleman in charge of visas in Johannesburg has firmly passed the buck to Etihad Abu Dabi. Whoever is not doing his work, this is definitely not fair to Etihad customers. In future I will think very... read full review »

Tried to get to the owner of the chain - no luck, they just would not give it to you. Cloths at Fashion TV in Rosebank is of schocking bad quality - do not buy there read full review »

I have purchased Vibro Shape belt, which has been repaired in the last 6 months FIVE TIMES. After informing the management of Homemark, namely Julie Swart, that this product if faulty and breaks after being used for 2 days, I have been given THREE new belts, that all broke as usual. Julie Swart has promised to refund the money since the product is obviously cannot be used. Then she just vanished, does not return calls etc. Homemark stuff are rude, put the phone down on you the moment you try to get to the management. Do not buy their products, it won't last. They should not be allowed to trade at all!!! read full review »

Its disappointing to know that good customer service is rare...I have tolerated shoddy service from our KFC Malvern branch i.e. in KZN. The previous occasion I had called there customer service and a week later I was posted a voucher for R15.

Absolutely awful...Firstly with their rude cashier Londiwe. I was utterly applauded with her attitude. She yelled at me to place my order... read full review »

I'm disappointed that my complaint has not been responded to. I laid one on Sunday, 02.11.2008 afternoon. I was at Fortgale Sasol and bought petrol. The attendant just grabbed the money and proceeded to chat with his pals; no thank you, no is there anything else I can help with, worst of all, notill slip. Upon my asking for the till slip at least, the man in dreadlocks(attendant: not that I mind dreadlocks) told me I should have asked for it; the till slip that is. That really pissed me off, excuse the language. Is this the type of service one should expect when visiting Sasol Service Stations? Please respond!! read full review »
