I have supported Nokia for many years but I will never, never ever buy a Nokia again. I travel frequently and every time I arrive at my destination, the phone works, but the face is blank. I have spent a full day in Amsterdam traveling by public transport in a country I do not know. But to no prevail. I have tried many times to have it repaired, but lo and behold, when I get off the plane, the darn thing is not working. I then handed it in at Eaxctmobile in Johannesburg. Their service: Absolutely s**t. They eventually sent me a new N70. I... read full review »

On the 31st July, 2006, I purchased a new contract with a company called ‘CELLUCITY’ at Century City Shopping Mall, Cape Town, for a cellular phone a NOKIA 6280. The cell phone was connected on the 2nd August and on the 3rd August I noticed a big leaf shaped shadow on the screen. We checked to see if we had made some mistake but realized that there was a fault with the phone. When we took the phone back, we were told that we must have broken the phone. I know that the phone was never abused as I never even had a chance to even put... read full review »

Virgin Mobile requires that the phone be topped up with at least $20 every 90 days.You can set the phone to top up automatically or you can do it yourself. The first problem I had was with the top-up feature. I registered my credit card online and set the phone to top-up automatically because Virgin offered a $5 credit for doing so. When the phone didn't top up and I didn't get the credit, I called customer service. They took care of it after a few calls, but everyone at customer service sounded under 20 and seemed very... read full review »

I have two cell phone contracts with Flexicell who were extremely quick to offer me the reduced airtime contract but sad to say are not that quick to attend to after sales customer service. My only contact with son is via this cell phone contract and as from last week Thursday to date (6 days) this contract is still not in operation. Total dissatisfaction with their service, each time I phone, I obtain another operator who dishes out even further sales nonsense. I most definitely would not refer any one to Flexicell and am seriously considering terminating my two contracts with them. read full review »

I bought a car at Renault Germiston in March 2006. The car instalment was R999 with a deposit of 10 %.

I booked for a parcel to be delivered from South Africa to Qatar. The cost of that was R655.50. The courier came when my husband (with a broken foot) was all alone at home. Even though the security guard at the gate told him that he is home and he must just wait the courier services just decided to leave. This without phoning the telephone number that was provided. It is three hours later and I am still waiting even though I was told that they will send someone immediately. Believe me even if I pay double next time DHL will not be my courier service. read full review »

Munnik Basson Dagama Lawyers are harrasing me on a prescribed debt of 2004/2005. To the best of my knowledge, I do not have any outstanding debts at ABC Shoes which ceased to exist in 2004/2005. ABC shoes or Edcon, the company that took it over, never contacted me about outstadning debts. Now, in 2011, the rude Munnik Basson Dagama lawyers are threatening to put me under administration, take a judgment against me and garnish my salary for the money. They will not listen to my side of the story, they actually forced me to make settlement... read full review »

Not very long ago, the “engine-problem” light in my MERCEDES came on, at which stage I drove the vehicle directly to Rola Motors to have it checked. The computer could immediately trace the problem and an engine-part had to be replaced. I think the cost was about R20’000. Initially I was told I will have to pay 40%. I begrudgingly agreed, feeling that I probably have no choice, and I said nothing. However, someone within Mercedes / dealership seemed to have felt strongly that it is not fair to have the customer pay for... read full review »
