Uber *****ing money
Uber has been deducting R50 from my account on a regular basis.....I have tried my best for a way to contact Uber but this doesn't exist. The moment there is cash in that account, I pay for an Uber ride in Cape Town...although I live in Benoni. I have deleted the app and will definitely never use Uber again...and I will make sure that I tell my friends and colleagues to avoid Uber at all costs.

No idea of customer service
On the 10th of December I went to the Builders Warehouse in Benoni and requested a 5 liter can of Duram Summit, which they informed me they had to mix as they do not carry the standard colors in 5 liters tins. The staff mixed the paint and informed me that there might be a small difference in color to the standard paint. I said that a small difference would probably be acceptable. I returned to my site where we are painting and realized that the difference was substantial and unacceptable. I returned to Builders Warehouse the following morning with the supp**** mix and my old tin…only to be informed that there was nothing they could do and would also not refund my payment. They informed me that I should go to the Builders Warehouse in Boksburg as they had the standard colors. I therefore went to the Boksburg branch, and I was informed that they do not carry the 5-liter tins and therefore could not help me. I had staff that were waiting for the paint on site so I eventually landed up buying the paint at Leroy Merlin at an additional cost of R399…and lost 2 hours of running around. To summarize…I run a small renovations company called “Billy The Builder” and spend around R5000 per week at Builders, and an additional R5000 at Leroy Merlin and approximately R10000 per week at Manny’s Hardware. I have used Plascon or Dulux most of my life, but started using Duram about 4 months ago and was impressed with the paint….I am sure you will realize that after this little exercise that I will not be that keen to firstly use Duram again if this is how the colors and options of purchase work and secondly, I will be taking my hardware requirements to Manny’s and Leroy Merlin. It truly pains me to see how the level of customer service in South Africa has landed in the toilet…. Duram came back to me and stated that I should contact them when I go back to builders and they would arrange a refund. That I did on Thursday last week and they responded on Friday and were quote upset that I was unsatisfied that it took 24 hrs. This little episode has cost me three days of labor. Duram paint is not worth that.

Absolute Riubbish Service
This is the second time I am posting bad service from Burger King, last timer one of the meals and the kids Toy wasn't delivered....I posted with no result. I was coerced by my grandson to go to the Northmead Burger King, again...the order was wrong, they provided a take away instead of an eat in. There was no kids toy..(they are out of stock), the outlet was total chaos, at least two other eat in clients returned their order. Even the Takealot orders were being returned. This outlet will die....

I have been a Premium member for just on 24 months...due to employment contra ending I decided to cancel my gym contract.....I have spoken top at least 4 agents in the Planet Fitness call center and confirmed that my last payment...of R799 ids the end of August. I receive another call this morning stating that I owe R1800...which is two months premium, which I agree. IO now receive an SMS stating that I owe R2658.90. The gyms want to know why they are going bankrupt and why nobody is prepared to sign a contract. You can sue me Planet Fitness....try me please.

No International Roaming
So, we are traveling to Botswana and I need Data and sms international roaming, I go to the MTN outlet at Northmead Benoni. I have it activated....obviously you cannot test it...I also request voice international roaming....on the 23 rd of April. I crossed the border on the 25gth of April and data roaming worked for about 4 hrs.....since then nothing. I have requested it again on the app.....nothing. I have a balance of 25 Gig in my account and 1200 minutes. I have mailed customer care.....no response. One would think it is MTN's interest to allow my roaming...total incompetence rules. I cannot use my bank cards as everything is based on OTPs. Thanx idiots....contract is up for upgrdae...time to port.
