I ordered from NineLife 3 months ago, which presents itself as a South African retailer and states on its website that it “ships within South Africa.” Naturally, I expected normal door-to-door courier delivery. Instead, the parcel was shipped from overseas and handed over to the collapsed South African Post Office — with instructions for me to collect it from a “nearest post office” that doesn’t even exist anymore. Two local branches closed years ago, and there is no functioning SAPO service in my area. None of this was disclosed at checkout. If you’re planning to order from them, please be aware that: • Delivery may take weeks. • Your parcel may be sent to a non-existent post office for collection. • You may struggle to get a refund if SAPO doesn’t return the parcel.
Clearline Appliances came to my home on 23 November to attend to the repair of my freezer. I was told that 2 Sensors and a Display Board needed to be replaced and that payment of R1430 was required to purchase the parts. I transferred the money immediately. To date (15 December) after initial communication with them now all my calls and WhatsApp messages are ignored. They have in effect absconded with my money, which suggests a scam of some sort is at play.
I ordered a Hot Airbrush advertised on the their online shopping platform on 14 August. After waiting for 10 days I emailed them to ask when they would be delivering my purchase. I was told that: The following item: "Salon One-Step Hairdryer & Volumiser (1), was unfortunately not in stock at the time of packing your order and we therefore need to refund you." It begs the question as to why I was not given this information immediately? Did they think I would forget about my purchase and keep the money?
My domestic worker has had R99 deducted from her Standard Bank Account since 2017. Sadly she had not checked her Statment in this time. It was only a month ago that she became aware of the deduction. She had never heard of Amazing Vouchers, lives in Darling without transport so it would make no sense for her to join such a scheme as she does not have access to any of their offerings. My husband subsequently phoned their call centre to ask Amazing Vouchers to present proof that our domestic worker had given permission to have the money withdraw. He was told she was not on their books and money was not being withdrawn. We subsequently have a letter from Standard Bank confirming the deductions from her account by Amazing Vouchers. PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE SCAM THEY ARE RUNNING!
