I used this company in Aug 2024. I was happy with their service at the time but subsequently noticed that a spare car battery had been ******.
I needed rubber belts for a cassette deck. After contacting at least 9 companies, I received a positive response from RSE. Friendly and fast service resulted in the restoration of A classic NAD 6150C.
Ordered a Chourico roll and chips. The chips and sausage were dry / stale. Some weak excuse from the manager via the waitress about the potato supplier. Almost inedible. Like something you'd get at a corner cafe in an economically depressed area.
In a heated phone conversation with an employee of Nedbank I insisted that what he was telling me be backed up in an email, since I will have no record of the conversation. He did so and I now have an email in black and white: dated; clear; unambiguous; with a reference number; together with my original inquiry and to which I can easily reply to. And I can print it, forward it, or make a screenshot and attach it to a message. How on earth is a phone conversation, most of which is legal mumbo-jumbo, superior to the abovementioned email exchange ? Also a phone conversation, which is difficult to retrieve and to refer to, is reliant on one memorizing the details thereof, especially for older customers. And what if one were hard of hearing ?
I recently replaced my Samsung A10 smartphone, which is 5 years 9 months old, with a Redmi (Xiaomi) A5. BIG MISTAKE, I should have stuck to Samsung. The A10 still works but is painfully slow at times and the battery is deteriorating. Samsung is superior in every way !
I visit your Meadowdale branch almost every day. Many of the items I buy are useful but many are defective / useless. Among the latter are USB / Micro adaptor cables. And it seems that you KNOW this, because the prices are reduced to R10 and R12. I have bought at least 5 of these only to subsequently throw them away. And no. I do not still have the receipts. If I don't get any satisfaction from you, I will contact every consumer body I can find. It is a matter of principle.
There are check-outs devoted to "Pesioners and disabled only" and clearly signposted as such. But the cashiers are too scared to enforce the rule. As for the cashiers, they receive NO training before being unleashed to the general public and therefore have no clue how the systems work.
I've been waiting for a reply from the Executive manager of the PPRA (Property Practitioners Regulatory Authority) since Dec 2024.

I went to Bumper to Bumper Jules Street. Already had a quote for a distributor from Jonathan via email. There is a system at the premises but you have to go through a learning curve to discover how it works. At first sight it looks like pandemonium. Also the quote didn't state that the part was new (being a Chinese copy of the original Hitachi). But eventually I got what I wanted at a price 1/2 of what is advertised online !
