Having had a My World Saving Account with African Bank Tokai Branch for some years. Of late I have come to experience how totally impossible their banking App is. During my wife's hospitalization February - July 2024 we were trying to access the app to effect registering Beneficiaries for payments, when the following occurred. " verification required" " please take selfies" after several attempts the app kept on saying unsuccessful attempts please present yourself to the nearest branch. On August 21 2024 I presented I was well enough and presented myself to the Tokai Mall Branch of African Bank for the verification process and the registrations of a General Power of Attorney ifo my husband and a copy of my IT3b tax Certificate. My husband and I spent +-4 hours in the Bank without achieving anything other than low sugar levels. Since we are both diabetics our stress level was going through the roof and our sugar levels were tanking. Todate I am nowhere near achieving out objectives of verification, registration of the General Power of Attorney and as such I am unable to use my appt etc.
Dear Sir, I recently acquired a Motorelli 4kw 3phase Electric Motor Bearing Serial No. 8072505, Frame No. MSV 112L. Kindly advise if this Motor is suitable for use for my Compressor. Many Thanks Mr A MacAdamCell: 0798244980 Hello, It is difficult to be helpful when you don’t even know what size motor you need for your compressor. When you purchase a motor for a compressor you must be able to tell me what size motor you require, but it seems that you don’t even know this. So what I suggest you do is firstly find out what size motor your compressor needs to work and then see if it is the size motor that you decided to buy. The question I must ask is why do you buy a motor of a certain size and then ask the stupid question of if it will work on the compressor??? Mark Brother it seems to me that you have not read my first email properly. The Compressor is designed to take a 4kw Motor per manufacturers spec. All I required from the distributors of this kind of motors to guide me as to the suitability of motor for this kind of work. It's not a question of being STUPID, it would have been good marketing if you had responded positively to my simple question. Mr A. MacAdam
Products such as Home Appliances produced by Samsung certainly does not stand up to the Quality that we are used to in the Hitachi Home Appliances. I have a 35 years old Hitachi Twin Tub (Still Working) used 3 times a week, now that all the children are Married it is used once every 2 weeks. On January 30 2018, I visited Makro with the intention of buying another supporting Washing Machine in view of the age of our Hitachi Twin Tub. I was convinced by the Sales Person of Makro to buy the Samsung 14kgs Twin Tub washing Machine. Having read reviews on the Samsung Twin Tub Washing Machine I was skeptically convinced that I am buying a reasonable Washing Machine. Within the first 1 year and 3 months things were going well, until the Spinner started giving problems, I reported the problems to Makro on 23 April 2019, spoke to a host of Personnel such as Cipho, Lee, Clarence and finally Toghierah, nothing came of the Notification, I then lost track of the report and continued the use of the Washing Machine, until the spinner finally Stopped on the 19th November 2020, (now well outside of the Manufacturers Guarantee Period of 2 Years). A formal Notification by Telephone I initiated with Mr Edwin (Manager Appliances) who assured me that in view of the Extended Warranty with Mutual & Federal the matter would be attended to quickly by Makro. A week after my report to Makro, the Samsung Technician showed up at my House and concluded an assessment of the Problem and advised that the matter will be further assessed by Samsung?Makro and thereafter I will be contacted. Today is the 2nd December 2020 Seventeen days later. I have not heared from Samsung or Makro.
After spending more than 1.1/2 hours on the phone with staff of the St. Johns Eye Clinic, all I way able to get from them is, please hold we will put you through, after long pause the phone went dead., 2nd Call to 0214618420, long ringing eventually an answering machine, for eye Clinic please dial 2 again long ringing no answer, tried again hour later same story, eventually someone who spelt his name as TSIU answer, I explained that I was looking for a copy of my Prescription of January 2019, we have recently move and most of the document relating thereto was destroyed, I was shocked, how can this be. Next day I phoned again same long wait, phone was eventually answered by a Ms. Kay, again I told her that I would like a copy of my January 2019 prescription and a quote for replacement of a broken lens and price for a second set of lenses into my new frames, after waiting a full day nothing happened, I then ventured another call of Friday 09/10/2020, I was lucky Ms Kay answered the phone, I reminded her that I was still awaiting her call and quotation, she then promised that by 12pm I will receive what I am looking for. 12pm came and went no email or call back(Not Very Professional), called her office again spoke to her she apparently has a list of queries including mine and she will address before end of day nothing happened and I am still waiting. I am hoping that by coming Monday 12 October 2020 I will get lucky. For the Record I am a SASSA Pensioner that uses a Loan Line, which is quite costly.
I am having a horrendous time trying to obtain the FREE Data that they promised customers for using their Myworld Card to Swiping 10 times in a Calendar Month for purchases. To date I am still battling to retrieve the May and June 2 GB Data from them. It appears to me that they have no control over the allocation of the Data to their Customers, which according to there customer service department are sourced from an external provider. I have spent hours with half a dozen of their Call Centre operators with no success or hope of ever getting my Data.
I am having endless problems trying to Redeem my 2 GB of Data owed to me from MyWorld Rewards. After having qualified therefor having swiped my African Bank Card 20 times over 2 Months ie May and June 2020.
I am so angry. I bought pringles from Spar for my grandchild. The label came off and guess what I found. Pringles from China covered with a South African label. This causes concern that the product manufacturing and expiration dates are simply relabeled once they've passed and it's then resold in South Africa with new labels. Now this is my problem surely the Kellogs company South Africa knows about the deceit or they are complicit in the relabeling of the chinese pringles container. I am refusing to purchase anything made in China. So as far as I can, I check the labels of the products before I purchase. It's my right to choose what I consume and i am pretty cheesed off with this relabeling of consumer products. Kellogg's need to explain what's going on here. If tomorrow I find pork in my rice crispies, this would totally unacceptable and as a consumer would never by Pringles again nor would patronize SPAR shops again.
I am not really sure where to start, so I will start with events subsequent to establishing my Myworld Savings Account. On June 01 2020 I received Notification from African Bank "myworldrewards.co.za " that I qualify for Myworld Rewards! To Redeem your May reward visit www.myworldrewards.co.za or dial *120*6001# and to enter a unique code. this is where the fun started, I did exactly as they instructed, punched in the Unique Code as prompted by the section, to my surprise the code was not accepted and rejected. On June 4 I motivated a call to African Bank Tel: 0861123456 to query the matter and was allocated ABK69550191. To date I am still waiting for the query to be resolved. The June Rewards that I qualified for also cost me lots of valuable time and money trying to redeem the 1GB of Data, to this day I have still not receive my Data, since the Pin No. that was allocated for the June Data was also rejected when I tried to Redeem it via my computer and Telephone.
Many of my Community Church Members seems to be hooked on the Companies Chocolate Creams, in fact I myself enjoy the Biscuit, however as a Diabetic it bad news, since the SUGAR Content of the Biscuits are way too high. At 39.1g per 100g it spirals our glucose levels to between 19-23 (acceptable levels 6-9.). For us to continue enjoying your Chocolate Creams Perhaps you can drastically lower the sugar content. I am sure it would taste just as good with less sugar and you would most certainly help in curtailing Amputations and Hospitalization over time.
BAD EXPERIENCE BUYING MACHINERY FROM THEM. SPARE PARTS ARE HARD TO COME BY, RESPONSES TO EMAILS SERIOUSLY BAD AND WHEN THEY DO COME BACK TO YOU IT IS ALMOST ALWAYS NEGATIVE. CURRENTLY I AM WAITING ON RESPONSE TO MY EMAILS SENT 5 DAYS AGO FOR SPARES FOR THE ROUTER THAT I BOUGHT FROM THEM.
