POOR SERVICE
My daughter was admitted to hospital on 13/02/2026 for the surgical removal of three wisdom teeth. I was required to pay an upfront co-payment at the time of admission. When we contacted Discovery beforehand, we were informed that no authorisation was required and were only provided with a reference number. Danray from the day hospital has now advised that the practitioner who administered the anaesthetic is a GP and that he must amend his account. I do not understand this reasoning. A GP is able to act under a valid PR number during a procedure. Why should the provider now be required to change his billing? The entire account has been processed from my Medical Savings Account (MSA), which has now been depleted. I urgently need to consult a GP this afternoon, and there are no funds available in my MSA as a result of this processing. There should be a system link reflecting an in-hospital dental admission. Danray has indicated that the claim was paid this way because no hospital account appears on the system and that the provider should have waited. This is extremely concerning. I require this matter to be investigated and corrected as a matter of urgency.

Poor Service
I would like to commend Novela for the excellent service he provided. He listened patiently and allowed me to express my frustration regarding the service failures I experienced. He assured me that he would follow up, and he kept his word by proactively updating me via WhatsApp. This initiative was extremely helpful, as it prevented me from having to call repeatedly. His level of service was professional, empathetic, and appreciated. However, despite Novela’s efforts, the overall service from your company has been deeply disappointing. Due to operational errors and a lack of accountability, I have suffered a financial loss of approximately R4,000. I will no longer be using the Paxi Home Bag service. No one took ownership of the issues, and I was not refunded for the three (3) Paxi Home Bags that I had to resend due to mismatched waybills. These errors were not caused by me, yet I carried the financial impact. This reflects a serious breakdown in process control, customer support, and accountability. As a result of this experience, I am moving my business to Courier Guy. While Novela’s service was commendable and helped to ease the situation, it is not sufficient to retain me as a customer when the broader organisation fails to provide adequate support and resolution. I trust this feedback will be taken seriously and used to address the service and accountability gaps that led to this outcome.

Concern Regarding Standing Policies for Retail Staff
Subject: Concern Regarding Standing Policies for Retail Staff This is not a service complaint, but a serious concern about the working conditions of staff particularly women employed at Pep, Ackermans, and other retailers in the same group. Many employees are required to stand on their feet for entire shifts, including pregnant women, older staff, and individuals with chronic health conditions. Extended standing for long hours places unnecessary strain on the body and can lead to long-term health issues. In contrast, a number of other retailers have adopted a more modern and humane approach by providing high bar stools or supportive seating that allows employees to remain efficient while still serving customers professionally. In 2025, expecting staff to stand for excessively long periods—while managers are seated in offices is outdated and unfair. It impacts morale, wellness, and productivity. I am requesting that management urgently review these standing-only policies and consider practical solutions, including: Providing high stools or supportive seating at tills and service points. Implementing rotation systems to reduce continuous standing hours. Allowing pregnant employees or those with medical conditions reasonable accommodation without fear of penalisation. Updating health and safety guidelines to align with modern workplace wellbeing standards. Conducting a formal ergonomic assessment to identify risks and improvements. This is about dignity, fairness, and responsible leadership. Staff are the face of the brand, and supporting their welfare will only improve service delivery and customer experience. I hope this matter will receive the attention it deserves.
