Galata Eksport/Yalda Oriental Collection
On 18 Aug 09, I agreed to take a carpet so I could go and fit in at home since I didn't have my measurements. As it seemed that there were others I could exchange with should the size not be right, it made sense that I make payment. A few days later I took it back as the carpet was too big for my place. I was given a smaller one and was promised that more caperts were expected in 2wks and that I'd be called back for an exchange. Two weeks later no call was received and when I did make the call I was informed that perhaps in another... read full review »
Eagle encounters Spier
I visited the centre on the 15 th of October 2009. The moment I walked in I noticed all the Eagles sitting in rows tied by the foot on a short chain or rope, perched on a small plastic loop. I arrived at 11.50 am and it was over 28 o Celsius on arrival. I walked around and notice that every time someone walks close by the eagles would struggle and startle and try to fly up and away.
I then myself realized that it was indeed very hot out in the open sun and noticed that only a few of the birds was protected by some sort of shade. My son... read full review »

Please can you assist
I own a South Africa company and was contacted by Milton Parks from madison Who's Who, who gave me a long winded reason as to why I should subscribe to the. It was enticing, so I went for it only to realise afterwards that this company is fraudsters.
They have already transacted against my account. I have not sighned any authorisation as yet and I can only dispute this once it goes off my account.
Please can you assist me in getting this resolved. I need them to void this transaction, but also be shut down for false marketing and advertsing.

Jonway Motorcycles
I bought a new Jonway 250 Scooter in March 2009. The first problem was that it overheated. The dealer where we bought the scooter, replaced the thermostat. Then the fan stopped working, and it was replaced. Suddenly oil started leaking out of the oilcap, when we opened it, the oil spilled onto the ground in a gush, the dealer said that the petrol was leaking into the engine?? He claimed the headgasket had not been fitted correctly, and caused the problem. The bike was sent to Jonway Johannesburg for repairs.
Since the indicators and the... read full review »
ELECTROLUX VITESSE VACUUM
I BOUGHT A ELECTROLUX VITESSE VACUUM CLEANER ON 21.08.2009, FROM HOUSE AND HOME, CENTURION, PRODUCT NO 900252765, FOR R1099-00.

FIRST FOR WOMEN INSURANCE BROKERS
Over three months after the vehicle accident, the repairs I discovered today are below standard. First For Woman (FFW) nominated Royal Panel Beaters (RPB) as an accredited auto body repair shop, but the shoddy workmanship can not be accepted. The assessors at FFW approved the workmanship, leaving me wondering what qualified their judgment. I refused to take the vehicle today and seek a competent assessment from someone who knows what they are doing. RPB declare that the workmanship on the vehicle at present is the best they can do!!!

So I had a case of fraud and the info I needed to open my case was on that phone.
When realising that - the very same day I handed it in I called the shop seven times to ask them not to send it in yet and nobody answers the phone, and when they do they put me on hold for ages only to get cut off!!
By this time I had to leave work and drive all the way... read full review »
McDonalds Fast Foods
Very disturbing discovery about the oil used for the French Fries. My daughter & I bought meals from the Bayside, Table View branch. When we opened the brown bag, the smell that attacked our nostrils, was unbelievable. It was a combination of the smell of moth balls and chemicals. We tried to eat them, but were unable. I took the box into the shop and was told quite frankly that it is the oil and that new oil was being brought through by the Manager the following day. They use the oil for 9 days and that they had had many complaints. I... read full review »

I went to shop at @Home store in Mimosa Mall, Bloemfontein. I wanted to buy coasters for my coffee table. The coasters I wanted had the price scratched out and the price on the shelf read R69.00. There were no bar codes to compare with. When I went to pay, the price of the coasters were R139.00. I queried this. The "manager" a Ms Koegh showed me a similar, not the same item and said I should have looked there for the price. I said it is false advertising to have a shelf price that differs from the actual price and she laughed at me. I... read full review »

Knysna in South Africa are a beautiful town near the west coast. For people from over seas, it is a treat. But for the people living in Knysna, it's a different story. Prices of everything is sky high.

* Buying a plot ( whithout a house ) That can cost you from 1 millione to 20 millione rand. You will not get a
plot under eight hundred thousand rand in Knysna.

SABC 3
I am disgusted by the fact that SABC 3 regularly screens movies with an 18-year-old age restriction on Saturday nights at 7:30 or 8:00 pm. The last one to be screened at this time had an age restrition of 18 with SVLN !!!
I personally do not watch movies with such age restrictions, but I can understand if they are screened late at night when young children would be sleeping. How on earth can a national TV broadcaster screen such movies during prime time TV? Some Saturday nights my husband and I surf for movies to try and find one without... read full review »

Secondly, I tried selling my timeshares and I was told that I can only sell the points allotted to me initially and not the accumulated ones. I initially bought 2900 points and now they are 4321. This means that I lose 1421 points.
