AVOID Slayin' Daily Customs
AVOID. This one will be quite long but I feel that people need to be informed and naturally you can make your own opinions and judgements. I found this place VIA a work colleague as he told me that they do cars for shows and I looked at some of their work and I have to say I was impressed by what I saw, however don't be fooled with this facade. We communicated and arranged for my car to go in for a complete paint job on the 9th of February and the completion time should be in the region of 2 weeks. Well lets just say with all the excuses and stories that time was lengthened. I am by no means an automotive painter but this is just terrible. First it took 5 weeks for a full paint job and every panel had issues, On top of it they decided to break badges & remove a headlight bracket and just chose not to reinstall them. After collecting the car I started to notice issues on every single panel, like the person who prepped and painted it had no idea what they are doing. Scratched on the paint, swirl marks on a newly painted car, sections where the paint is polished through to the body work and there were many of those, paint peeling off by the sunroof, damage on the PPF that was installed on my headlights. The car was taken back to them on the 29th of April and I was told the car should be done by Monday the 6th of May, then I had to struggle with getting feedback and finally when I received feedback I got the message that Beamer fest cars have been setting him back so it is delayed further. Very good business acumen to look after new sales before fixing existing issues. You get this blind promise to have the car done 100% with no issues then the date was Monday the 13th, then Tuesday the 14th. Then Friday the 17th of May. On top of that the boot emblem was damaged and instead of replacing it with the correct one they just forced the wrong one into that spot resulting in more damage, because why not, "who cares what the customer thinks, a badge is a badge right" with the model badging they broke just not being replaced because they just felt like not replacing it. In total that was another 3 weeks. So 8 weeks for a paint job that is sub par at best. After all the excuses and stories, I had enough and on Friday the 17th I told him to get my car done as I am collecting it on the Saturday. Because I know that should I not have put my foot down that we would've had more delays on delays and excuse on excuse. When you go to collect it because you are done with the empty promises and excuses the car is worse than before. They used the incorrect hardware to secure parts, paint had more issues than before, body panels are not secured and nothing that was previously discussed when returning the vehicle was sorted out. Basically if you want the paint job to be done right, go elsewhere. I would recommend avoiding this establishment as they clearly have limited know how on how it is supposed to be done. I highly recommend a career change as you clearly are not adept in the automotive painting industry. Avoid the place as you will only waste your money for a sub-par work with tons of issues and will have to end up paying again at another place. Save yourself the frustration and anger. DO NOT RECOMMEND ATT ALL!!

Simply avoid the place
Just don't recommend them. They will paint your car after a long wait. Have errors and you take it back showing the errors. and instead of fixing the errors they simply add a few more on top of the original ones. They break badges and either don't replace them or put the wrong ones on. You will get a completion date when you take the car in and that day will move. and I mean IT WILL MOVE and this will happen a lot causing you un needed anger and frustration because you will receive promises of it being done by X date and when that day comes something will come up. Do not recommend this institution at all

AVOID CIT Serve at ALL COST
Chantal Le Cante running this company called CIT Serve. She acts like she is a registered tax practitioner, getting people to give her your SARS login credentials. She then promises you a large tax rebate after paying her a service fee of R1500. She inputs false information which will get you in big trouble with SARS. Avoid CIT SERVE at all costs. On top of that she will constantly ask you to borrow money like you are friends or something. Extremely unprofessional. AVOID at all costs as you will be done in. I will all keep reposting the review forever because they are the truth. One day everything will catch up to you owner of CIT Serve. The wheel turns

I would rather take my car elsewhere to have it sorted as clearly they have no concept of managing the jobs or the customer expectation. Lastly when you go to collect it because you are done with the empty promises and excuses the car is worse than before. They used the incorrect hardware to secure the bumper, put the incorrect car emblem on the boot by just forcing it in resulting in more damage. Long story short. Consider a career change as you clearly are not adept in the automotive painting industry.🤬 In short avoid the place as you will only waste your money for a sub-par work with tons of issues

DO NOT USE CIT Services for your own good
If I can give you -5 Starts I would do that DO NOT MAKE USE of either Chantal La Cante or CIT Services. Straight up a con artist. Using them will only result in frustration and you end up getting threatened by someone that clearly has delusions of grandeur. Well where to begin. I got my hands on the number for this person that is the owner of a company named CIT Services. In the beginning it was all prompt and fast. After I paid the 50% of her fee though. This is where all the problems started. This person is incapable of communicating and will borderline lie to you compulsively. And will send you feedback only if you nag for it. Then on top of it the information that is shared with you is not complete. Nowhere is there anything said to you that "Oh sorry mr customer, I'm still waiting for this or that to give you all the final details" no no no, you have to feel this in the air like some kind of wizard. Then you will be told that you will receive feedback by the end of the day, end of the day comes and you have nothing. The next day the cycle repeats. Instead of just advising me of delays or something that is being waited for. But no none of this will be relayed to you whatsoever. She will be out to a "doctor" but not tell you or there will be "loadshedding" that is not communicated to you and this is something that you must just know. I completely understand that we have issues of our own but in a service based industry you must advise your customers of this. Then the empty promises will come. You will have feedback today, or later or tomorrow. Every time the answer changes just to keep you happy but you never get the promised feedback. I strongly advise against making use of either the company or person. If I can give 1 piece of advice to anyone in the service industry. YOUR CUSTOMERS ARE YOUR MOST IMPORTANT ASSET, SHOULD THEY NOT BE THERE YOU MIGHT AS WEL CLOSE YOUR DOORS!!!! This person will constantly ask you to borrow money on top of that also. And then when you think its over it's not. Should you call her out on the BS stories. She will start getting a real ****py attitude and even revert to threatening you. Threatening to put you on ITC for what exactly I am not sure. As I paid for a service and when I am promised feedback I received nothing but stories. Good luck in your future endeavors, but with that attitude towards your customers you will fail. Number 1 in Customer retention is communication and customer service. This companies owner clearly has no understanding of that.

MiWay Spam Calls!!
I have been getting frequent spam calls for a few months now, the standard ones where you get a call answer and they hang up, I have Truecaller installed and it tells me that it is MiWay. I am not a client of theirs, have never been, and I am not interested in them. Should I be interested I WILL PHONE YOU!!! So how about you look into the POPI act and REMOVE my details from your annoying call database. Should this persist I will take legal action against you!!!
