No delivery after 9+ months.Lincoln Ramatsebe Power Solutions and Tsediso Vincent Ramatsebe, Lincoln Ramatsebe and others in the company have treated me like dirt.
Imagine being told, for around 200 days over a span of 9 to 10 months, that someone will be arriving at a specific time to deliver a product and service. However, they repeatedly delay their arrival or simply don't show up at all, even though you paid for this service almost a year ago.
Roughly nine months ago (in December 2022, to be exact), I purchased batteries and an inverter from Lincoln Ramatsebe Power Solutions through Tsediso Ramatsebe, the owner's son who was employed by the company at the time. Regrettably, I have not yet received the promised products or services.
Despite their constant reassurances and commitments to resolve the issue, they have consistently failed to fulfill their promises. This cycle of promises broken has continued almost every day, accompanied by various excuses, requests for additional funds, and continued delays. I've meticulously kept a record of all our interactions, noting their promises and subsequent lack of follow-through. In an effort to address the situation, they even offered extra batteries and solar panels to make up for the inconvenience caused. This gesture made me somewhat patient, likely part of their strategy to further delay me. However, since even these promises were made months ago and remain unfulfilled, I have reached a point where I feel compelled to express my dissatisfaction.
They have provided several explanations for the ongoing delays. Initially, they attributed the delay to the owner's son, who handles deliveries, being unavailable due to intoxication and a subsequent minor accident during the first week of our engagement. Later, they cited other reasons, including an incident where the owner was allegedly hijacked. While these explanations could be plausible, their subsequent actions have cast doubt on their sincerity.
Additionally, there have been instances where they claim to have inadvertently sold equipment meant for my use. This came after the owner, Lincoln Ramatsebe, stated that I was no longer his responsibility and that Tsediso Vincent Ramatsebe should handle the matter. It's worth noting that at the beginning of this issue, Lincoln himself claimed on several occasions that he would personally install the products, which never happened. This raises ethical concerns and questions their professionalism.
There are a few more instances to mention. I was informed at one point that an employee of theirs took my equipment home, leading to a police involvement to retrieve it. I cannot verify the accuracy of this claim. Tsediso also mentioned that they hired external service providers to deliver and install the equipment, but this also did not materialize. At one stage, Johan Olivier entered the scene as a new partner in the company. He expressed shock at the treatment I had received and acknowledged that I was the only client treated this way, a sentiment echoed by both Lincoln and Tsediso. Despite this, Johan was unwilling to address the issue without requesting additional payment. Given that I had already paid extra twice to expedite the process to no avail, I hesitated to pay more without actual progress and offered to pay when someone arrives. He refused, offering a refund the next day or days later. Tsediso mentioned this as a way to almost get rid of me as a problem. By that point, several months had passed, the Rand had weakened, and the products had become more expensive. This approach seemed unfair to me, considering the stress of the situation, loss of time and loss of business I experienced due to the lack of electricity despite having paid for a solution.
Everyone involved in this matter has provided the worst service imaginable, short of outright ****ming. I have yet to be convinced otherwise through the actual receipt of the promised products and services. I candidly told Tsediso Vincent Ramatsebe that their treatment of me has been worse than dirt. His response acknowledging even worse treatment raises the question of why the issue remains unresolved.
Despite the considerable passage of time, these delays and unfulfilled commitments persist up to the present day. This ongoing situation has left me disheartened and compelled to seek intervention from the consumer commission. If this matter is not addressed soon, my next step will involve reporting this to the police.
It's perplexing how any business can operate with such disregard for customers and their commitments to service.
Prior to writing this. I had posted a review on Ripoff which Tsediso had seen, and as he said to me earlier in the day"We have seen it" He then promised to come in the evening and 30 minutes after he was expected he sends me a message telling me he will be making his way to me and will update me. Thereafter he did not respond for an hour and just simply said please wait. An hour later he says he will update me and claims he is coming my way and never arrives, never apologizes and simply just ignores me as he has hundreds of times.
A recent episode saw him invoking divine intervention, swearing solemn oaths to set things right. Yet, predictably, he vanished into the ether once more, leaving behind a chorus of unanswered prayers. His attempts at redemption have become a tragic comedy, with each act more farcical than the last.
Even his purported sister, Mntombi, emerged from the shadows, imploring for leniency on his behalf. But her pleas only serve to underscore the depths of Tsediso's deception, dragging unwitting accomplices into his web of deceit.
The most recent debacle unfolded with promises of imminent resolution, punctuated by desperate pleas for financial aid. Like a hapless gambler at a rigged table, I reluctantly wagered on his sincerity, only to be met with silence and excuses once again.
His vanishing acts have become a cruel game of cat and mouse, leaving me teetering on the brink of danger with every interaction. His sudden claims of empty tanks and phantom transport arrangements reek of manipulation, painting a portrait of a man devoid of conscience or integrity.
Even as he begged for petrol money with feigned desperation, I couldn't shake the gnawing suspicion that I was dancing with the devil himself. His disappearance into the shadows, punctuated by his family's dubious claims of concern, only serves to deepen the abyss of distrust.
At this juncture, Tsediso's actions inspire not sympathy, but contempt. His track record of deceit and manipulation has eroded any semblance of trust, leaving behind only a bitter taste of betrayal. If there is justice in this world, it will be served swiftly to those who dare to toy with the lives and livelihoods of others. And Tsediso will find himself at the receiving end of that reckoning, a cautionary tale for all who dare to follow in his footsteps.

Despite his reassurances of wanting to resolve the matter, I find myself questioning both his sincerity and capability to do so. While I have tempered much of the anger stemming from a year of broken promises, my primary concern now is swift resolution. I await tangible steps from Tsediso to address this issue promptly.
We will see what happens next.
