Avoid this company and Corné De Villiers at all costs.
Ordered and paid for Compactum on 24th of July.
Corné promised delivery would take two weeks.
After 2 months of excuses and Corné Not even being able to send a picture of the cupboard we asked for our money back.
He refunded a small portion but we are still waiting for more than R2,000.00
Excuses for the refund are as abundant as his excuses for the product.
He deletes comments on his facebook page and was agressive with my wife after she posted on his page.
He has ignored Lawyer letters and as such we are busy taking up legal action just to try and ensure he cant catch any one else.
Herewith a list of excuses used on us:
- Bad weather so he can’t apply final coat of paint - Bad weather causing paint to take long to dry As a result of bad weather paint made bubbles and he had to repaint - Can’t work on compactum due to load shedding - His choice of courier is unable to deliver to us (later directly confirmed with the courier that this was not the case) - Drawer bracket broke and he has to order a new heavy duty bracket - Suppliers do not have brackets - He is 3 hours drive away from warehouse and cannot complete the cupboard - They don’t work on Fridays so we can’t arrange for collection - He did not get a chance to drive to his workshop as he was busy with other work - Claimed to pay a full refund but insisted it would take 3 business days to reflect in my account - Claimed to pay a full refund but accidentally did not release the payment and therefore it did not show - Claimed that he could not pay us because he was owed money - Claimed the people that owed him money did not pay on time and he could not refund us
So if he has used any of the following excuses on you, don't waste your time any further. You have been scammed.
I have made contact with several disgruntled clients to help with our case, and it seems he follows the same routine everytime.
