We rented a 1-ton fridge truck from Power Truck, which also goes by the name Sparta/ Rent a Bakkie/Dial a truck/ Smart Truck. The fact that this company has to use this many pseudonyms is already a red flag. Upon returning the vehicle full of fuel, filled up at the filling station near their depot in Isando, we received an invoice charging us for an extra 2 litres of fuel, as well as a service fee. When we queried this, we were fobbed off. The second time we rented the same vehicle, we immediately drove to the filling station to see whether the fuel tank was given to us full. It wasn't. 8 litres empty in fact amounting to R240.10. We sent photos of the truck being filled at the filling station with the slip and gave them the name of the petrol attendant, only to be fobbed off again and the suspicion thrown on us. We never got our money back AND we were charged again for a few litres they said they had to add to the vehicle, even though we had filled it at the filling station around the corner from them. This company is corrupt and incompetent. Even getting an invoice with correct vat details on was a fight - I had to ask for it several times. Save yourself a lot of pain and never use: Spartan/Power Truck/ Rent a Bakkie/Dial a truck/ Smart Truck or whatever other name they might use in the future.
