*****ulent company working with Dlovukazi Trading 38 (Pty) Ltd & Highveld Container
On 22 December 2025, I was referred to Kenneth Shalang of DLOVUKAZI TRADING 38 (PTY) LTD for the purchase of a 40ft shipping container by Highveld Containers. Kenneth issued an invoice and payment (R18 000) was made accordingly. Shortly thereafter, I received an email from Vivekan Logistics requesting an additional payment of R12,920.00, citing that the container did not have road tax and insurance and that this was a compulsory refundable charge. I was then issued a further invoice for storage fees (R7 000). Despite repeated assurances from Kenneth Shalang that he is “looking into the matter,” no resolution has been forthcoming. Accordingly, I will have to report the case to the South African Police Service (SAPS), Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC) and will also escalate the matter to the National Consumer Commission (NCC). You are strongly cautioned not to do business with Kenneth Shalang from DLOVUKAZI TRADING 38 (PTY) LTD ; Vivekan Logistics & Highveld Container. This information will be shared on social media.

****MER WARNING: DO NOT MAKE USE OF COMPUCCTV CAMERAS (they advertise on marketplace)
WARNING NOT TO MAKE USE OF @COMPUCCTV CAMERAS (they advertise on marketplace). I share my experience in the interest of avoiding these people ****ming more potential customers. We decided to use them after receiving photos and videos of installations they’ve done. A very big mistake as this installation turned into a nightmare. After the 3rd attempt we gave up on them. They are clowns! They do not have the correct tools to do the job. They arrive with a hammer drill only. Meaning they were unable to drill holes into our steel poles which resulted in them having to make use of our tools. They also did not have the ability to drill a hole into our knotty pine ceilings, so once again we had to supply them with tools. They also state that they do neat jobs. An absolute lie! We had to close the elbows on the PVC pipes installed ourselves as they were unable to. We had to replace their HDMI cables with braided cable which is a good quality cable after one of their HDMI cables broke when it was pulled from the back of the monitor. To make matters worse, they used network cable instead of the correct camera cable which does not supply enough power to the cameras when there is a change in weather as the copper is too thin resulting in constant flickering. They've also cut the cables at the DVR and power supply too short resulting in you being unable to move it for cleaning purposes. They also stripped the outer insulation off the small wires and left it all untidy and exposed. The black poles that they advertise with the round solar lights was also not manufactured by them, but by ourselves. The power supply that they installed makes a huge noise with the fan running constantly. We didn’t have this problem with our previous power supply. They advertise a 6-month warranty which means absolutely nothing! They leave you with a system that doesn’t work and run off with the money. I highly recommend using reputable installers with good references. Rather pay a bit more and receive a good quality installation and product.

Nothing but frustration! Won't recommend Xtreme Thermo Systems
I requested a quote on 20 February to have a 12000Btu Alaska inverter air conditioner installed. I received the quote on 21 February, which was great. I've been trying to confirm installation of this unit ever since. Today (26 February) I receive an e-mail from Xtreme Thermo Systems (Pty) Ltd that they can assist with my water problem on the 1st of March 2024. I rep**** and enquired on what water problem they are referring to. After not getting a reply from them, I forward an sms message to 084 600 0004 to which I received a reply "I don't know, reply back to the email you received so we can assist". Next minute I get a phone call from this number. I was informed that they are not plumbers....my gosh.... I know that! The person I spoke to had absolutely no idea what e-mail I was referring to. I then forward them an e-mail cancelling my request as it is clear that this installation is (1) either not going to happen or (2) it is going to turn into a disaster. Well, to my surprise I get an e-mail stating " Please accept our sincere apologies. We have been receiving tons of emails and enquiries and I think we had you mixed up with other client. If there is anything we can help with please let us know". Warning! getting the quote is no problem. Booking an installation date is impossible! Getting your job mixed up with someone else's job is a definite! Try phoning the landline number provided on the quote....good luck...nobody answers the phone. I won't recommend using Xtreme Thermo Systems (Pty) Ltd. You will be disappointed, guaranteed! You will be beyond frustrated.... Rather look for reputable installers that go the extra mile and provide good customer service. Especially after sales service. It's not like you pay R500 for an air conditioner!

WARNING: Do not order online from Pick n Pay Clothing!
WARNING! Be careful when ordering online from Pick n Pay Clothing! You will not get your package and you will not receive any assistance from customer services as their number (087 223 3203) doesn't work! Complaint: online order 000107312 Placed an online order on 7 October; however I was notified that my parcel was lost/stolen by the courier company (Courier Ninya/Fast & Furious Distribution) on 24 October. I've logged two tickets #549578 & 547283 and both tickets were marked as closed. The Pick n Pay Clothing customer services agents, Zakiera Mahatey & Adrian Louw are beyond useless! All I asked was to refund the R764.98....this now seems impossible. I will however never place an online order again and neither should YOU! #picknpayclothing #PicknPay #customerservice #customerfeedback#courierninja #fastnfuriousdistribution

NO SERVICE & SUBSTANDARD WORK....GUARANTEED! Beware when using subcontractors from Fix24
Beware when using Mighty Maintenance (Mighty Team) in Alberton. They subcontract for Fix24! They are unreliable! GUARANTEED. Reading the other reviews on Fix24, I came to realize that I'm not the only person scammed out of an access when two valves were replaced by Mighty Maintenance almost a week after I logged a claim (CL4387137_3 March 2022) with SA Home Loans. This geyser is still out of order. I have to keep the geyser switched off as it trips the electricity. Ceiling still wet. Mighty Maintenance informed me that the insurance (SA Home Loans) doesn't cover the cost for cracked or broken geyser drip trays. Fix24's subcontractor (Mighty Maintenance) is just as unreliable and dishonest as they are. BEWARE when using these contractors as they will cost you more money and get substandard work. They are unable to solve a problem the first time. They do a quick fix knowing that they have to return…..more money for them. No wonder you pay a fortune for insurance!

SERVICE IS THE LAST THING YOU WILL GET.....This is how they roll!
Think twice before taking up insurance with SA Homeloans! They are unreliable and dishonest. Should you not fit into their customer demographic you can forget to get any service from them. Reading the other reviews, I came to realize that I'm not the only person who got scammed out of an access when two valves were replaced by their middleman FIX24 almost a week after I logged a claim (CL4387137_3 March 2022). This geyser is still out of order. When you follow up with the SA Homeloans "geyser anatomy specialist" (Shalin Gilbert) she feeds you lies and BS! I have to keep the geyser switched off as it trips the electricity. Ceiling still wet . Fix24 used a subcontractor (Mighty Maintenance) in Alberton who is just as unreliable and dishonest as they are. BEWARE! Don't allow these contractors on site as they will cost you more money due to substandard work. They are unable to solve a problem the first time. They do a quick fix knowing that they have to return…..more money for them. No wonder you pay a fortune for insurance!

SERVICE IS THE LAST THING YOU WILL GET.....GUARANTEED!
Beware when using Fix24! They are unreliable and dishonest, probably because they are the middleman between insurance companies, subcontractors and then finally the client. Should you not fit into their customer demographic you can forget to get any service from them. Reading the other reviews, I came to realize that I'm not the only person scammed out of an access when two valves were replaced almost a week after I logged a claim (CL4387137_3 March 2022) with SA Home Loans. This geyser is still out of order. I have to keep the geyser switched off as it trips the electricity. Ceiling still wet and they refuse to fix the geyser and the damage caused by the faulty geyser. Fix 24 used a subcontractor (Mighty Maintenance) in Alberton who is just as unreliable and dishonest as they are. BEWARE! Don't allow these contractors on site as they will cost you more money due to substandard work. They are unable to solve a problem the first time.

Think twice before using Afrihost as a service provider.... as service will be the last thing you'll get..GUARANTEED!
Contacted Afrihost this morning @ 09:15 and reported a damaged fibre cable. Spoke to a consultant with the name Kate with reference no#MFG-619-77424. Was unable to get hold of her for the rest of the day. Had to speak to several other consultants who kept me holding for 10 min at a time while they verify everything you tell them with their supervisor/s. Afrihost has to log a call with Clear Access to enable them to fix a damaged fibre cable. Needless to say, it has been a frustrating day trying to get people to do their jobs. To my surprise I was just informed (17:09) that Afrihost can't even trace the reference number given to me via e-mail this morning. Can you imagine? Afrihost provides the worst service...terrible customer experience similar to any government institution. Consultants don't have a clue what they are doing. Afrihost is a complete waste of time. Think twice before using them as a service provider.... as service will be the last thing you'll get..GUARANTEED!
