Would you like some worms to bake with this morning Madam?
Today I am disgusted by the lack of quality control that seems to be occurring at Eureka Mills. My friends and I have been posting about this usually-incredible flour as I LOVE the bread that I have been able to make with it for years. But this morning, not one, but TWO of the Eureka Mills Potbrood Easy home Mix 1kg saw some worms crawling out of my mixing bowl. And upon further inspection, I saw webs and what seemed to be more eggs along the inside of the package. While I was alarmed, I was happy that I had a 2nd package so that my plans to give some fresh bread to my father for his 77th birthday today were not thwarted. But opening a second bag, a dead worm was folded into the package and more eggs/webs on the inner package. The packing date for one is 30th Sept 2020 and the Best Before is 28th May 2021. The dates for the other package were exactly the same. So a bad batch perhaps? These were bought at Pick n Pay just a few weeks apart - the last one bought just last weekend on Saturday 16th January. How does this begin to happen?

Inexcusable level of incompetence in a basic process.
NEVER EVER EVER deal with this company or call centre. I have had a pay as you go service for years but was in the market for a new phone so when their sales centre called and offered me one, I loved the synchroncity and went for it. BIGGEST mistake of my life! Since receiving the handset in Dec 2017, and immediately seeing it was a completely useless product for my needs (not enough memory to hold my basic apps - and I hadn't taken one picture/video yet!) I called them after 48hrs to advise it needed to be collected from my workplace. BEFORE I agreed to the phone, I specifically asked about this policy and was assured I could return it if it was not suitable for ANY reason. This after first going to a local branch to give it in and settle it, but being wholly dismissed and advised I HAD to do it through the call centre. Surely this is why your have a branch? To get in-person immediate service?! So since middle of December last year this phone has been sitting at the front desk at my workplace waiting to be collected. We are open from 6am to 7pm - no excuse that they cannot access the phone to be collected! In the meantime, if I run out of data, my clients cannot contact me if I am not at WiFi. And I cannot load more data the way I always had been, because the contract is now live. I had bought an extra data bundle which I pay an extra R99 for but I have no access to because the old phone I'm using is not a dual SIM. The contract gives me very little data and airtime so after a couple of days in the month I'm uncontactable and unplugged from school groups about my children's care and work groups - so absent as a parent AND losing out on income!!! I have spoken to countless people at the call centre for this still to be unresolved. But ridiculously - here I am....going into March 2018, with yet another broken promise from call centre that the handset would be collected yesterday. No accountability - no urgency - no customer service here. I'm at a total loss - what to do? !
