WARNING WARNING ALERT!!! NEWS!!!!
So I have waited a while to post this, because I haven't had words to express how upset, broken and torn I've been.
I booked a trip with Red Sea Jol and I was beyond excited! I am pretty sure 90% of you heard me telling you about everything that was included and how I was literally counting down the days till I went! It was meant to be my prehoney moon vacation before moving to George and getting married!
Unfortunately 3 days before the trip Kimo (the owner of the business) informed us that he failed to book our flight tickets to Egypt and that The trip was no longer happening. After which he left the whatsapp group.
He then proceeded to message us one on one that we will recieve a refund but made no effort to inform us of when this will take place. Not only that but excuse after excuse was given, lies and stories were made up of why we won't be able to recieve a refund. The joke and peak of this whole story is this man still thinks he is innocent and did nothing wrong!
The story only gets better! He is still going out on red sea jol trips with other clients while he has stolen almost 1.2 million from a group of 50 of us! He has no remorse for what he has done as he jols on the ships and pretends like he didn't ruin 50 peoples holiday!
I would NOT recommend Red Sea jol to anyone and will be advising ALL South african dive clubs to stay away from him! Please because your trip is not guaranteed. I am sitting here depleted...this whole process has been a complete nightmare for all of us.
Linda Swanepoel Williams and Lorette Swanepoel Bridges have been doing everything in their power to help us get a refund and I thank them for everything they have been doing!
I am asking my friends and family to please please repost this and spread the word. I may not be able to get my money back but I can sure that nobody ever goes through the trauma we have had to endure in the last couple of weeks!
Red sea jol if you see this just know that you have zero integrity, you have failed to produce a service that was paid for in full! We have ample evidence of your lies, stories and none stop excuses. If you think that I am stopping here with this post you are very mistaken and naive. I am going to make sure that I use ever social media platform I have avaliable to make sure that Kimo and his business ( Red Sea Jol ) never scam people like they have us. I will not stop until I have my money refunded to me in full.
Again Please Please repost this and be aware of this man and his scam!
