SEDFA is playing us with their funding programs, I've been enquiring about my application for the past 6 months and still no response and yet they keep publicizing their funding programs yet they don't care about applications already received

Poor service and communication
Good day, As a committed entrepreneur trying to grow my small business, I am deeply disappointed by the lack of urgency and communication from SEDFA. I submitted a new funding application online on the 29th of August, and followed up politely via email to confirm receipt and offer to forward the required supporting documents. Unfortunately, to this day, I have not received any feedback, acknowledgment, or update from their team — not even a basic confirmation that my email was received. This level of unresponsiveness is disheartening, especially for entrepreneurs who rely on agencies like SEDFA for support in advancing small businesses. I expected at least a professional acknowledgment or a timeframe for feedback, but instead I’ve been met with complete silence. It’s frustrating to experience such inefficiency and poor client service from an organization meant to empower and assist business owners. I sincerely hope this review prompts SEDFA to improve its communication systems and show more respect for the time and efforts of entrepreneurs who reach out in good faith.

Long waiting period & poor communication
I app**** for funding at the agency to open my own Beauty studio as I met the requirements of a start up company. The agency does not care to communicate properly or even at all. The lady I was told was handling the assessment of my application Bontle Maponya hasn't communicated with me in regards to my application, the last I heard from her was when she requested my tax clearance certificate, which I provided & advised that I'll get feedback from her afterwards but it's been over two weeks since that took place. It's been over six months since I app**** & everything that was asked of myself was provided for but I still don't know whether I'll get the funding or not even after all this time. It's quite disheartening as this is one opportunity I created for myself in order to earn a living, provide employment for others & partake in the economy of this country..

SEDA Queenstown Office Complaint
My name is Sibusiso Molefe from a company called BANG Entertainment at Sada in the Eastern Cape. I have exhausted every approach I know and failed to get the Queenstown office of SEDA to assist me. I have escalated my issue to the Branch Manager Ms Davids and got no assistance and the Provincial Manager Mr Soga and got heard and that was it, no assistance. It has been 2 years of multiple visits to the Office, no way foward calls, and a chain of emails, yet I still don't have a website for my company. I've never been dumbfounded on how to proceed with matters.
