P&L contractors (PI Contractors)

This company would get a minus 10. Wish I did not have to rate. Beware of Petrus Arnoldus de Wet. Also goes by the name of Pieter. Changed Company name now to PI Contractors. I paid him R217 250 in Dec 2024 to secure building material at 2024 prices for my build in Jan 2025. First excuse was the delay due to rain. Then I was told projects were not completed end Dec 2024, hence the delay in my build. The next excuse was that he was trying to put a 2nd team together to get my build started. One excuse after the next to find out that my material was never purchased. I then asked for a portion of my money back to which I was again given excuse after excuse. I'm trying to get a loan from the bank. I am waiting for customers to pay deposits. Customers have cancelleddand and so it goes on. I was then told by Peter that I will be receiving a letter from his attorney regarding payment (I am still waiting) for this letter. Now I am told by Pieter that there is a sale going through and he will pay me some money. This has now been going on for 5 months and still no payment has been received. Pieter shows no remorse for what he has done to innocent customers that "TRUSTED" him. When I spoke to him in Dec regarding a bad review I saw I was told by Pieter that the customer was at fault and that I am in goods hands as he does not do business this way and will "NEVER" do people in. Well this is a first hand experience and I wish that I had never come across this company. Pieter De Wet is no example of a director and has no knowledge of dealing with clients. There are other clients that he also owes money to. He is also a person of interest with attorney Mike Bolhuis. "BE WARNED - DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH PI CONTRACTORS" The worst of all is that he has no guilt for taking pensioners money to benefit his personal pocket.

Reviewer Update
I have given Pieter enough time to repay me back my money. I also put a post on SA ****mers. When Pieter saw the post and sent me a whatsapp and said by doing that and giving his business a bad name will not bring my money back. He also said that 2 customers canceled with him after reading my post to which I rep**** that it was the truth that was told on the post. Pieter was quick to take my deposit but now I have to be at his mercy to ask for my money back. I find it very unfair to be treated this way by you Pieter. I have every RIGHT to name and shame you. Yes I am glad that you have admitted that it is a lot of money you owe me. My question to you numerous times is "how long are you going to take to pay me back". To date you have not given me an answer. Because of your reckless and negligence in handling my money I now find myself battling to survive on a daily basis. You just don't care what you have done. How do you sleep at night knowing how you make a living off other people's hard earned money. Shame on YOU.
