Sony Ericson Xperia X10 mini pro
I have bought this cell phone on the 24 August 2010. After a week's use I went back to this shop and complain about the battery of the phone - it only lasted about 8 hours. The shop assistant explain about android and aplications on the phone and that it takes a lot from the battery. I paid R3230-00 for this phone. I told the shop assistant that I am unhappy with the phone and rather want a refund or change of phone. He insisted that I take the phone to the Sony Ericson workshop which is called SSS Cellular in Boksburg. My phone was returned with a new battery, but now only lasts about 4 hours. I paid a lot for this phone - what should I do now? read full review »

Spar Los Arcos
I went to spar two days ago to buy things for my house and every item the cashier scanned was higher than the store price. And i spoke to the store manager about it and he insulted me in front of everyone and asked me not to come to that shop again that i am a criminal. That was my biggest embarrassment ever in my life and will not rest about this until i get justice.
Am thinking of opening a case against them before contacting the National Consumer Forum.

Sabc 2
Is it just me or are the Sabc presenters against Helen Zille? I've been watching this broadcast for about an hour and everytime a question is asked by the male and female presenter, they make it sound like Helen is taking the ANC's ideas to run their campaign. Not ONCE have I heard an attack against the guy from the ANC!! Every question towards Helen is an accusation. It's PATHETIC. Control the prejudice presenters PLEASE because they are obviously ANC voters as they very subtly attack Helen especially the Male presenter. read full review »

I direct this letter to you as a matter of last resort. It is my hope that you will be able to assist us in this matter.

Standard Bank South Africa
I'm wanting an e-Mail address at the Credit Card Division of the South African Standard Bank.
Nowhere can i find such an address on their website, only telephone numbers which i cannot utilize because i live on a farm without land line connection to the world because of cable theft.
To phone by cellphone is uneconomical to speak to a consultant about my query
I'm wanting to try and resolve a serious matter with my credit card regarding unsolicited debit requests from abroad.
Thanking you,

Serta Bed
I sent a mattress for sewing of small tear on the top joining corner last year (May 2010) when the mattress came back, the bottom sheet was different and the mattress had lumps in it. (The bed was bought in August 2008) It was re-fetched by the factory for fixing. I believe and mentioned to Serta that the mattress that came back from sewing is not the same mattress that I bought and that it was changed. When I complained that the mattress had lumps after being sewed, they fetched the mattress for fixing of the lumps.

IMPACT PLUS TRADING 534 CC
I deeply disappointed with our suppliers Natal Portland Cement that has been supplying us for many years. We have been the only remix concrete suppliers in Pietermaritzburg for over 20 years. Our suppliers have now wanting to snatch our business from us and approach our clients directly.
This causes a ripple effect for us because our small but steady business will not able to compete against this large competitor. We have a staff complaiment of 30 employees with family and this means that they will soon be out of jobs because we will not be... read full review »

Damelin Randburg.
Hi. I would like to know who I can complain to about the teachers at damelin. I don't understand how people can be content with learning from people who work at damelin because they don't have jobs other places. The lecturers are not trained teachers. They studied what they teach at damelin. I understand that that could sound like a good idea but its not. They have no skills to teach students. And besides that, they are arrogant and they lose our assignments which means me fail at h d of It. Please help. Thank you read full review »

In March of 2010 we approached a Shopping Center Complex situated in Westbeach Blouberg in view of renting office space for a new business we wanted to open i.e a Recruitment Consultancy, Time2Move Recruitment and Selection Specialists.

Awesome Kitchens
I would not recommend using this company for any renovations or any work inside your house let alone kitchen-related work. There is nothing awesome about their service, feedback or communication. I have undertaken renovations to be done for my kitchen through Awesome Kitchens and have been waiting for more than 3 months for simple work to be completed. Furthermore, the service has been highly unprofessional with endless promises to be called back and dates when the work is expected to be completed by. These promises are never fulfilled and no... read full review »
