Saterday afternoon after a funeral in Durban. We were towing the deceaseds car behind us up from Dbn to Gauteng. Just after Villiers tollgate we got a flat on the vehicle we were towing up. N3 toll help came. Tyre was not repairable. They suggested Swanies towning. A very young boy came, with NO IDEA OF CHARGES. He took tyre on rim to the "shop". They took the tyre off. Put and OLD WORN OFF second hand tyre on. There was less than .5 mm treat on the replacement. The original tyre was a 195 60 15. The replacement was a 195 65 15. We were charged R2450!!!! R450 csllout and R2000 for that s**** tyre. What has become to decency. Everybody just has a knife to your throat to take money you haven't got. Especially after a family funeral. They could not give us an invoice or VAT NR. The owner is Roelf (also calls himself Thabo) Swanepoel 0795037969, 0588210212 or 0726042508.
The amount due was R2450!!!! Call out charge was R450. So for the worn off pathetic tyre we had to pay R2000 TWO THOUSAND RAND. This must be stopped!!!!!! It is robbery. People must be warned!!!!!
