Got Penguin Pools West Rand to quote on a new pool. Sean Hopton was quick to promise that the weir and channel that I want is easy to do and quoted accordingly. Payed my deposit end February 2007. They started and got to the stage where they filled the pool with water. I got home and noticed bubbles in the gunnite. They battled for months and one day I got home to discover an ugly round plastic drain in the pool. Their solution to the ground water that they never tested for. They didn't have the decency to talk to us to explain the... read full review »

I rented a car from arokan and instead of doing the check on you credit card to see if you have the money required for the deposit they charged me the amount. It has now been over 7 weeks and i have been in contact with them over 20 times and they do not seem to be willing to return my deposit. The amount was for 15000 rand or 2000 euro which i am afraid that i will never see. I have tried a lot of different things to get them back but nothing seems to work. Are there anyone who knows what to do? i live in Denmark and this transaction occurred while on holiday in south africa i january. Cheers, Ulrik. read full review »

I bought a 3 Boxed DVD Complete series set from the DVDCraze.com company that insists it has state of the art TV series on DVD. It took 4 months to get to me, cost me $90 and what I got were 8 episodes of what I wanted on 8 DVD's taken off a New Zealand TV station, complete with commercials and bits of a TV series I didn't ask for as an added bonus. I want what I paid for. Not what I got. But I have been told that the Warranty for anything I order is 3 months. If it takes 4 months to get to me- how can I return it in 3 months? read full review »

My Opel Corsa Classic, 2004, 1.8 overheated on Monday 21 January 2008. It was towed to Oosmey Motors in Rustenburg where it has been standing for a week now.

He said I must fetch my car, as the housing was only necessary in winter time, when the heater is used. He said they will only be able to get the housing in next week.

I have always had a pleasant experience when I booked tickets via computicket's online services, but today I am very very disappointed!

In September 2007, Dave from Royal Granite (AKA Deziner Granite and Creative Granite) came to see me. After some discussion, we agreed that he would install around R5000 worth of Granite tops in my kitchen. I paid him a R3500 deposit (70%). Dave himself took the measurements. Apart from the fact that they canceled the installation date twice at the last minute, when they actually came to install the tops, it was an absolute disaster. The dimensions of the tops were way out, the joins were shoddy, the broke pieces out of my walls, 5 tiles were... read full review »

My 42" Sansui Plasma TV, which is less than 2 years old, was sent in 4 times for repairs in the space of 3 months. Job Number JA49926 for reference.

Also, TV makes horrible humming sound every now and again. Frustrated and fed up with poor quality of service from Sansui. Had Sansui products in the past which were of poor quality as well.

The Naspers Group has awarded the contract to trace shareholders to TSP (shareholders partnership) to claim ordinary shares under the Phuthuma Nathi shares scheme. They have not made any attempts themselves to get hold of the shareholders, but grant TSP the right to claim 15% admin fee to award the cash benefits from the above scheme. This is not fair and needs to be investigated. I have applied for the shares to be dematerialised, but have not heard from Naspers. read full review »
