Bad in store service and product knowledge
Very underwhelming service from Karabo. I needed a prepaid sim, she was stern and seemed angry from the onset while assisting me...to the point I enquired if shes okay and if i did something to offend her, I even apologized if had somehow offended her. She then had a friendlier composure and said no its not me and shes not angry. Anyway, she sold me the wrong prepaid sim, said I need to be on the same plan to transfer airtime/ data (which the Cell C call centre said is not true), said there would be airtime on thr sim which there was none. When i got home and realised this, I called the store, she then changed the tarrif plan remotely without informing me and pretended to have sold me the correct sim. I did not even know that could be done, she could've just informed, now thats bad customer service and seems like it's withholding information from the customer! I had to call Cell C call centre where I was advised of the tarrifs and cost implications of changing it, as well as basically being told I was sold the wrong sim but the tarrif plan can be changed. Bad service instore, great service from call centre.

Profit Over Education!
This review is wrt Curro Hazeldean Primary School. This is not a school in the sense of educating learners. It is merely an institute for assessing learners. Work is handed out and only abstractly discussed in class with the onus passed onto the parent to educate the learner. There are more assessments and sport activities than learning days. Even kids not participating in sport are affected as their subject teachers often required to tend to sport related activities. Curro Holdings is a listed company, of which, the primary objective is to make profit. Having had learners at the school for 18 months, it became clearly evident that education is this school's lowest ranked priority and profit-making is the highest priority of this school. School fees are very high considering the poor level of education, many state schools will easily outperform this school at a fraction of the cost. Almost every act carried out by the school is ultimately done to make a profit. There is also a school levy which in my opinion is just profiteering, as almost every extramural activity or teachers birthday needs further donations which were meant to be sought from the levy. All students are even asked to bring canned food for the cleaning staff at year end which is absolutely ridiculous. An ample bonus from the exorbitant school fees should be allocated to the cleaning staff, if the school management care about their cleaning staff at all. Kids are even made to pity cleaning staff as my daughters were told. Teachers are really not driven to educate (except for a rare few), they tell learners more about their personal lives during lessons rather than teach actual lessons. Complaints to the Head Master and Head of Grade go acknowledged but unactioned and unresolved. One example is of a complaint about a Robotics teacher, it would seem he was employed as a Rugby coach and was forced into teaching Robotics as well, he has zero skill at academic teaching, zero connection with the learners, he shouts at the learners in class and is not at all approachable. The Head Master did nothing about these complaints....why?...because Sport is the heart of this group....why?....because sport drives investment and profit. While Sport is important, Academics should be the primary objective. If you want quality education for your child I suggest looking at schools outside Curro Holdings and non-profit education facilities.

Pleasure to deal with!
I sold my car to Weelee in 2024, I was assisted by Heinrich De Villiers. He was honest and gave me an offer far better than their biggest competitor. He even offered more than my asking price and gave me a fair and honest evaluation of what my vehicle was worth. A pleasure doing business with Weelee. Thank you for the great service!

Super Easy with Samsung Pay :)
Super Easy to use. I am confident it is secure enough as I use the Samsung Pay option which has its own security measures as well.

Best Hardware Store!
The variety of products at Leroy compared to other competitors is much better. The store itself is well setup, staff are friendly, and has a nice cafe. Pricing is also very competitive. Please open a Leroy Merlin in Pretoria East!

Useless Service
Useless service so far. Left my details for a call back. Got a Whatsapp response which imp**** they were about to call me, this happened 3 times and still no call back. I called the call centre/ Centurion office twice and after a couple minutes of waiting, it goes to voicemail. I can't even make contact for a vehicle I want to buy...how ridiculous is that? If Sales is this bad, I can only imagine how much worse their Aftersales service will be. This made my decision very easy...and that is not to deal to Weelee! I've had 5 star service from WeBuyCars on follow-ups. Weelee is still a "mickey-mouse" company that it was when it first opened.

Helpful support and quick turn around time
Smart fund balance was not reflecting 2 days after paying into it. Support team managed to resolve the query the same evening I opened the query (probably with 2 hours). Online support was a bit slow but soon after I received further telephonic support and explanation from Tammy. Excellent service and turn around time!
