Unprofessional, bordering on criminal

Highly suspicious. Anderson and his team are active on Facebook community groups and I thought I would support what appears to be a local initiative with good intentions.

I phoned Anderson and he came to assess my gate and gave me a quote. I promptly paid the substantial fee quoted for materials and labour via EFT. He did not arrive the following day to complete the job.

This is not some sort of a random scammer - he has a registered business.

When I call, he declines and responds with a message along the lines of "I am busy, but will get back to you soon". Just under 4 months have now passed and despite multiple calls from my side (never his), there is no sign whatsoever of the goods or labour that I have paid for. He makes multiple excuses about being let down by his colleagues, suppliers, even his wifi connection. It is endless - I have given up on contacting him because my time is just not worth it. However, I feel that others need to be aware of how this company operates in order to avoid being exploited as I was.

I posted a review on the Facebook business profile which was promptly deleted, followed by a vaguely threatening phone call from a private number.

Approach with caution.
