ADT came to our house to do an installation with NO EQUIPMENT! They had no ladders or drills - these are surely basic installation tools for an alarm system? Their installation team spent 3 hours lazing around our house because they did not have equipment. When we asked why some of the installation (that did not require these tools) were not done, we were told they were on a lunch break. What? After spending the past 2 hours doing nothing? When we complained to ADT, they said they outsourced installations - all well and fine, but it is their... read full review »

I bought a genuine leather uppers lounge suite in April - May 2009, and the agreement was that I would start paying in July 2009. For sure from July I started paying but as the months go by I noticed that the headrest of the lounge suite were losing colour, since it was still under gaurantee I contacted the store. They promised to send someone to look at the lounge suite and eventually they did after numerous phone call on my side. They then decided to come collect the lounge suite, which they did. This was almost a month ago, apparently the... read full review »

Friends and I arrived at Cofi from 6:20 onwards. We placed a drinks order for approx 6 ppl (3 cocktails, 2 virgin cocktails & 1 coke) just before 7 but these arrived almost 20 to 30 minutes later. The virgin cocktails were too watered down and had to be sent back. While waiting for drinks we ordered our mains. This took abt an hr to arrive. The waiter had to be asked twice abt the food as he was virtually non-existent. We got the standard reply of its almost ready. Eventually we were told the kitchen was shortstaffed (not acceptable... read full review »

I write to you in utter disgust for the service I have received from Gateway Toyota Gateway, as you can view from the attached letter to the manager whom has not replied to my mail & has denied receiving the email. My husband & I were on holiday in Johannesburg and Cape Town since the beginning of December and had to deal with the additional cost of a battery replacement on the 2006 Toyota Hilux we had purchased in May 2010. With us doing just 5000km's since the purchase of the vehicle I feel it was unfair for Toyota Gateway... read full review »

Logged a call on the 18th of January to ahve my microwave repaired, 2 weeks later no response. Apparently they logged the job with the wrong branch so tha job was just cancelled.

My wife is one of your clients through First for Women, it is the FOURTH month since my wife's vehicle was taken in for repairs.

Good day, I have a Blackberry 9520 on contract through MTN which is a SARS business contract. When I first applied for the line I requested the 8520 but for some strange reason received the 9520 and only realised it after opening the phone and because the phone was given to me through SARS facilities which handles all our cell phone requirements I kept the phone instead of going through the hassle and paperwork of returning the phone. That, unfortunately was my mistake, instead I am now with a troublesome phone which I’m... read full review »

I have a ATi 4890 graphics card that I bought at Computer corporation on 24122009. On 30012010 the card started giving me problems. I took it to Computer corporation on 02022010 CRO number: 000777. I am still waiting for the card to supposedly come back. How long should I wait. I had the card for just more than a month. Fast to sell, slow to replace. If it can't be repaired or what ever, refund me then. Sort it out for me as I will not tolerate this. If I have to I will be taking this matter on further. I buy alot from them, but if this is the service you get when you have a problem, they can keep their stuff. read full review »

The owners did not put us in the room we booked. Instead they placed us in a dirty, dilapidated and bug infested room in which half the appliances were faulty. It also lacked essentials like toilet paper and clean towels. We were also without electricity or hot water for the majority of our stay. Never mind compensation, the owners didn't even care enough to apologize or even speak to us regarding our complaints. There are much better places with better rooms and a better attitude towards quality. read full review »

I recently visited the Skin Renewal Clinic in Pretoria to treat my nasolabial lines . I had to pay a R300 deposit and the fillers cost R2500 per syringe - one syringe was injected on each side. The doctor advised me to drink loads of water for the next 24 hours - which i did. I can honestly not see any differance - as a matter of fact it seems as the filler was not injected in the 'folds' but next to the fold under my eyes and in my cheeks. I am very unhappy about this as the whole procedure cost me more than R5000. I think people should be warned about these 'skin clinics' and 'skin spas' and rather visit a dermatologist. read full review »
