You call & there's no one there to help you. You email & you don't get a reply, You WhatsApp and you still don't get a reply. The only way to get answers, is to physically go to their office and ask for assistance. Poor service,
My mother was having problems breathing & had severe back pain last week, she arranged for a neighbor to drive her to Netcare Ferncrest Hospital in Rustenburg. The emergency Admin clerk took her Discovery Card to review her details & kept her card while she was moved to a ward. After seeing a doctor, she was prescribed medication & told she could go back home which was a big mistake as she is currently in a very bad state & should have been admitted & kept at the hospital for 2 to 3 days of observation. Leaving the Hospital, she asked the admin guy to give her Discovery Card back to which he said I'm sorry but I have lost it. They took my mother's contact number & promised to call her once they find it. To date, they have not found the Card. In addition to this unnecessary stress, my mother has been informed that she is liable for the medical treatment at the hospital as this is not covered on her Discover Essential plan. They should have just admitted her as she was in no shape to go home & needs care. To summarise, they lost her card, let her go when she should have been admitted & now has to pay roughly R4000. This to me is poor service.
I am a private patient who paid cash for medical services at Medicare Rustenburg. This was around the middle of April 2022, after my medical treatment, I was then provided a statement that showed there was a credit amount of just over R7000. I provided my banking details & to date, I have not received any replies to the 4 emails I have sent so far. I was dealing with Sharon from the finance department who ignores my emails. This kind of customer care is just terrible & I would recommend anyone who needs medical care to rather Opt for their treatment in Pretoria or Johannesburg where you are guaranteed better service.
Lost my SA Phone overseas, unable to access my account without being able to receive an OTP. I've contacted the SOS department who asked me to sign some forms (Application to amend client account information) & Indemnity etc which I did & got notarized at a local Police Station for R500 (Indonesia). After a dozen emails & calls, I got an update on Saturday that the forms I sent through did not have the Police officer's full name, etc. This means I will now have to return to the local Police Station, resubmit updated info via email & wait for another 4 days & hope this time the amendment will be accepted all while I have zero access to my account & little funds left to survive. I have not received any replies via email or calls on my International number. I wonder how many people go through this same experience & think to themselves what the heck am I doing with such a bank. Reference number 50145486
I had to cancel all my policies because I could no longer afford them due to being unemployed for almost 2 years! I noticed 3 months later that funds are still being debited off my account when I queried this, I was told this is a standalone policy. What part of "I want to cancel all my policies" because I am broke and cannot afford them,,, When a client says please cancel, it means cancel. While I was waiting to be assisted telephonically, the call was dropped, cut. They say their calls are being recorded, I'm glad they are and I suggest they re-visit my previous call to cancel these policies. I had the same issue with Discovery and now 1st for Woman looks like it's a South African thing to suck your clients dry when they can no longer afford to pay.
Twice now they have deducted funds from my account when they were no supposed to! First I canceled my Vitality with a month notice, this was acknowledged and the following month I was chargred again. Then due to financial strain, I could no longer afford my medical cover, so again I gave one month notice which was acknowledged and guess what, once again they withdrew funds from y account!!! I am struggling to survive and these *******s keep on deducting money from my account!!! Error is not acceptle, they have all the software, trained staff and tools to ensure these types of errors do not happen!
Having two Geyserwise units setup on my farm, I wanted to change the current timmer configuration as we entered into the winter months. My goal was to make it manual whereby we can control when we want to heat the water which better suited our needs considering we are living off-grid using solar energy. I called Geyserwise who eventually gave me Gavin's mobile number who operates from Centurion. I explained to him my needs and he was able to provide me with know-how as to how to remove the times programmed by the installer. We no longer use unnecessary energy from our solar panels, hence save more battery power. Thank you Gavin!
I recently had a problem with my flush system, the overflow valve wouldn't stop running after one flushed it. After placing a service call, a service agent drove through to my farm which was at least a 2-hour drive from Pretoria to asses the issue causing the flush system. Upon inspection, it was found that the overflow valve was faulty and it had to be replaced. As the service agent didn't have this part, he then decided to drive to Rustenburg when he was able to get a replacement from one of his dealerships and then returned to install the new part which solved the problem. I asked if there was a fee for this service to which he said it was part of the service Geberit provides - so no cost involved which was great! A big thank you to Ernst Gottschalk for his assistance!
Shocking service, paid in full for windows and flyscreens to be installed on new lounge. To date after 4 months of waiting I've just been informed that they will no longer install the flyscreens as Maxidoor has installed the security bars. Delay after delay and now it's our fault we have installed security!!!!! - Herewith reply from Veto Aluminium. Good day As per the installation teams that were on site there are Trellidoors in front of the windows where the two said flyscreen’s that is on site needs to be installed We do unfortunately not remove Trellidoors due to the risk involved in damaging these doors and were this issue apparently communicated via our installation team to the builder on site We close tomorrow until 8 January 2020 , however we will kindly send an installation team out to install the two flyscreen’s if the Trellidoors can be removed Apologies for the inconvenience and misunderstanding Awaiting your kind reply
My daughter has suffered from Anxiety and stress because of management! The head mistress and other teachers in the makeup department treat their students like ****. Loads of students are leaving this institution as they cannot handle the poor standards of the teachers where they use threats, punishment and other forms of discipline on students. This is not a happy place to study, you have to watch what you say, watch what you do, watch what you wear. My daughter spent 3 weeks in hospital where she was diagnosed with stress and Anxiety. because of this, she did not want to continue with her 2nd half of the studies which would have led to a diploma. This institution refuses to give my daughter her certificate for the 1st 6 months of study. Terrible place, do not send your kids there!!!
