My back windscreen was damaged and needed replacing as I was unable to drive my car. I phoned around and contacted this company. They came to my home to fit the windscreen and my son who works from home let them in to do the job. I explained to Sylvia, my initial contact that he starts work online and she said they would be there before the, they were late. The started removing the windscreen and as he had to be logged in he was not with them the entire time (though the team said he was). They asked him to sign the job card (not explaining it to him only to say he is happy with the installation, so he signed as for him looked fine. Before I made the payment (as I was also asked to pay before installation but said i was not comfortable doing this), I asked my son to take a phot before and after and send it to me. The photos looked ok so I paid. I had to keep all the windows closed and not take the cello tape of for 3 days, so I didn't. I discovered deep as well as other scratches around the windscreen they had installed. I contacted Sylvia who said she would speak to the team. She got back to me to let me know that as my son had signed and said he was happy with the work, also that the job card had an S on it and that signified the Scratch was there, there was not anything she could do. I sent her the before and after photos which showed clearly my car had no scratches. It had in fact gone for overall, paint work, including my mags, which was paid for by my insurance, but the insistence that my son had signed was prevalent from her point of view. I explained that they only referred to the windscreen installation and did not ask him to check anything else. I also spoke to my Neighbour who was home and noticed them using a sc****r to remove my damaged windscreen. There was no response from them about this. I asked Sylvia if she had contacted her boss but she went quiet after this. I then decided to contact Charne (the owner) myself. She said the same thing Sylvia did. My son signed the job card thereby acknowledging the scratches were already there before the team fitted the glass. I sent her(as I did Sylvia) my before and after photos. I told her she is welcome to check the date and time stamp. I forwarded my WhatsApp communication between myself and Sylvia and her response was: "What are you hoping to achieve with this?" I let her know that is not the response I expected and that if it had been her, what would she have expected. She apologized and asked for time to investigate. six days later she let me know she had not forgotten about me but that she was sick and would be back at the office the next Monday. twenty-three days later I messaged her that I am still waiting. Her response was after a long investigation and after speaking to all relevant parties(I am not included here), it came to her attention the scratches were indicated to my son(a blatant lie), he signed the job card as acknowledgement of this(another blatant lie), and that they could by all means remove the glass and refund me the glass money but consumables, fitment and removal fees would not be refunded. I responded to say it was disappointing and that the photos i sent make no difference. Charne then responded by letting me know that. The signed job card proves the scratches were there? Photos can be edited. Time and date stamps can be edited as well. She had consulted her lawyer. It seems that I want a refund for the job that was done. She has never had a single complaint in the 10 years I am the first to do so (I found 2 complaints online, 1 on Hello Peter, both mentioning Sylvia and one mentioning one of the men who worked on a car) That the fitment was done by her 2 best fitters She did not read my response to this as she is such a professional businesswoman, she blocked me after sending her message. I am utterly and truly disappointed and disgusted with the owner. Clearly her team learns from her example. You should be ashamed of yourself. Had you asked during your "long investigation) I would have gladly supp**** you with the details of my vehicle overhaul. Shame on you Charne and Cape Town Auto Glass Elsies River

Clients are not important as long as they make money
Yesterday we had a windscreen replaced. We checked, only focusing on the windscreen itself. All looked good, as it had clear tape on as well. Explained we mustn't touch the glass, drive with the windows open, etc. Driving away from the fitment centre we noticed the wiper tray was loose. We didn't want to touch anything. We drove back, as we were literally just around the corner. The installer pushed it up, etc. Then we left. Only to find this morning that there is small crack forming. My brother went back to them earlier today and the Installer just said. U signed the slip and that means everything was in order..... So no matter what u say. U will have to purchase a new windscreen again. No proeppuepr assistance. Practically just told him his wasting his time. I called the offices and explained what happened. The manager Silvia called me 2 hours later and offered me a R 150 off if I decide to do a new installation and stock will be available next week only. So from spending a R 1 330.00 yesterday for replacement of a cracked windscreen, going back with an issue to not even 24 hours small crack. It's our fault.... They explained yesterday the cowling panel is brittle. Why did they then go ahead with the installation. So easy to blame the client. How can u ask an installer if its bad workmenship..... When it's actually starring u in the face. Seriously clients don't mean anything these days. It's just making money.....
