Disappointing Service

I honestly can’t express how disappointed I am with Ithemba property services and I hate that I have to resort to writing a bad review about this company. In November I moved into my unit there was a broken toilet and still is broken even after they “fixed” it. The floor still has irremovable purple substance and floor an I was told it was done by the previous tenant but because I don’t like complaining so I let it go. This month I tried to apply for a payment arrangement and It was declined cause I apparently I have to stay in the unit for at least 3 months, sounds reasonable however my neighbour is only 2 months into the unit and she her arrangement was approved and there’s 2 other people who were approved also but it is only applicable to me. This morning my electricity was switched off when I tried to reach out to them they told me the accounts department is not available and will only be available for me tomorrow at 1pm. I work from home, this is frustrating I tried to call the accounts department I wasn’t allowed to however I asked to cancel I was told I would need pay again for Breach of contract. It seems I have to continue paying with or without service and my concerns are not taken into consideration to top that off there’s multiple accounts under my cellphone number that I don’t know about and I am currently receiving the previous tenants invoice and my invoice and this has been happening monthly which makes me question the ithemba admin

I have proof of everything I’m saying though I was told to wait until 1pm tomorrow. My issue is the unfair practices and I feel as though I’m being discriminated for whatever reason none of my concerns have been taken into consideration. I don’t think this will help either as the company is content with how the treat their customers. I am expecting little or no assistance as the bad reviews outweigh the good

I know nobody is coming to fix the floor nor the toilet and the issue with the accounts department does this mean I have to wait another day without electricity? Why is the 3 months waiting period only applicable to me? Can I send lease agreements and statements to prove to guys that I am being discriminated in this regard. I need proper feedback this is not enough I work from home.

It only gets worse you after I have posted about how disappointing my experience has been with iThemba property, The building manager and the security just came stating that they have to lock me out while I was told to wait until 1pm tomorrow for feedback from the accounts. Really guys ? Is this how you treat customers ?

I have tried to call the accounts department and there was no answer. No progress has been made except that you sending The building manager and the security to come lock my door after my application was unfairly declined and I have proof but I guess it is a way of shutting me up. Raising concerns only exposes me to more poor experiences with the Ithemba property company.
