I had the worst customer experience with Polo Ralph Lauren online store. I placed an order on 23 January 2026 and was told delivery would take 3–5 business days. It ended up taking almost two weeks. When the pants finally arrived, I received the wrong size. I ordered an XL, but they sent me a 2XL with an XL price tag attached. I requested a return the same day, and it was approved immediately. It has now been three weeks since the return was accepted, and no one has come to collect the item. I have still not received my refund. I have contacted customer service multiple times, and each time I receive a different explanation. I’m repeatedly told the issue has been escalated to the delivery company and that they will contact me before collection, but nothing ever happens. The lack of accountability, inconsistent communication, and wasted time have been extremely disappointing. Based on my experience, I would strongly advise others to think twice before ordering from their online store.
I’ve been using FedEx for the past 18 years for my business, both in the USA and now in South Africa. We ship between 80–100 packages per month, and up until recently I trusted them with our time-sensitive deliveries. Unfortunately, their service has declined significantly. We currently have a parcel that was stopped at customs on Saturday, 7 February 2026. It has now been sitting there for five days. All required documentation was submitted immediately, yet getting feedback from FedEx has been incredibly frustrating. I understand that FedEx does not control customs. However, what they do control is communication — and that’s where they’ve failed badly. It’s nearly impossible to get hold of someone by phone, and when you do get assistance, it feels like they’re doing you a favour by giving you a basic update. We paid top dollar for FedEx International Priority specifically to ensure this shipment arrived before an important product launch event next week. Instead, we’re left chasing updates with no proactive communication, no urgency, and no clear indication of what is being done to resolve the delay. When you ship the volume we do and pay premium rates, you expect at minimum: Proper customer service Proactive updates Accountability A sense of urgency Right now, FedEx seems either overwhelmed or simply indifferent to long-standing business clients. After nearly two decades of loyalty, I’m seriously reconsidering whether it’s time to start looking elsewhere. FedEx, sometimes it’s just the simple things that matter.
Honestly one of the best stores in South Africa! I ordered an Apple Watch Ultra 3 from them on Black Friday. Not only were they the cheapest by R3500.00 compared to the bigger guys, I literally received the watch the next morning that wasn’t even 19 hours after I order it. Fantastic service and as South Africans, we should support these guys more as the service was outstanding.
Absolutely shocking service from Aramex South Africa. My parcel has been stuck at customs for over 4 weeks and I’ve been trying to deal with Sharon for the past 2 weeks just to get an invoice so I can pay the customs fine. No emails get answered, and when you finally manage to call, all you get are excuses and lies. The staff are beyond lazy and clearly don’t care about their customers. Aramex is by far the worst courier company I’ve ever dealt with — if you value your time and sanity, rather use DHL or FedEx. At least they know how to handle shipments professionally. I’ll never use Aramex again.
Worst Bank in South Africa, I have been a Nedbank client for over 5 years and honestly they are disgusting. I bought something using my Nedbank credit card and it turned out I was ****med. Anyways I pay R200 per month for my credit card insurance so I contact Nedbank to get this payment reversed and I’ve been dealing with Dorothy Snyman and I’ve received nothing but terrible service. She can’t even type a mail to let a customer know any updates! Worst bank and I’ll be closing my credit card with Nedbank after this as this hasn’t been the first time I’ve had issues with them.
Awesome Company! I have been a DHL client for 15 years and I've never had such fantastic service. I had the pleasure to deal with Buhle Sekoboane & Tabogo Ntlebi and let me tell you, They were superstars! They called me every 2 hours to update me on the process of my Parcel and made sure they got my parcel delivered before our launch event. These 2 need to be applauded for their fantastic service and skill! Thank you again Ladies :)
I’ve been a DHL Client for 15 Years and I’ve never had this issue before but DHL has really Dropped the ball this time. I own 3 Wholesale Companies and we import a lot of Products through DHL, Recently we’ve had a sample come in from our Factory overseas and it has been stuck at Customs Since Thursday 25th January 2024, I’ve phoned Multiple Agents just for an Update but I’m greeted with Attitude and Empty Promises and rude staff DHL you really need to step up, especially with the prices you charge to ship our products. Or we should rather use FedEx from now on.
I wish there was a No star button. This is the worst bank to deal with! Dont waste your time with them go to FNB and just open an account there. I opened a Platinum bank account with Discovery bank in November 2023, it took them 3 months to activate my account meaning the account was only activated on the 4th January 2024. During the 3 months, I wasn’t able to use the account due to it being frozen but during that time they were billing me fees of R196.00 a month but sorry discovery how can I pay bank charges when I can’t even use my account? I contacted Discovery bank and for the last 2 weeks I’ve been promised that the fees would be reversed in 48 hours. Well it’s been 288 Hours and the fees are still on my account, I have over 30 call references. They are useless, rather bank elsewhere.
