SIYATHEMBANA TRADING 106 [PTY]LTD - ******* ALERT
Approximately 3 weeks ago, I received a call from a consultant who informed me that she was calling from Telkom Broadband Solutions. She said that as a valued Telkom client I have been chosen to qualify for a router and sim cards @ the cost of R154 -00 per month and a once off activation fee of R190-00. I questioned her about their registered office address, to which she responded that they were situated at Office 7, Equinox Building, 12 Millennium I accepted the deal and provided my personal information and banking details. she undertook to let me have a contract via email by close of business and further advised that I will be receiving an SMS confirming that I have taken the product. To date I have received no communication at all . On the 2nd February I receive an SMS from Absa advising that the debi check authorisation had expired- please contact the credit provider for more information. On the same day I receive another message from Absa confirming a debit amount of R352-00 and a max amount of R5000-00. After almost 35 years of banking I am informed that if one provides a creditor with banking account details then the credit provider can unilaterally, without the customer authorising same , debit your account. I was and am still trying to get Absa to cancel the debit order. On the 14th February 2023 I receive a delivery from Rams hand to hand couriers - marked parcel number 001 001 14/02 the sender being Siyathembana Trading 106 [PTY] with the physical address at 12 Millennium Boulevard. Note this was not from Telkom as I was led to believe by the consultant. I tried to contact the sender on the number provided on the weigh bill . The number being *** - this number is unreachable. I googled the company , the contact number is *** - needless to say this number is unreachable as well. I personally called at the physical address at Office 7, Equinox Building , 2 Millennium Boulevard, Umhlanga Ridge to cancel the contract and to hand back the device. I was advised by security that Shop 7 has been closed for almost two years. There is a huge rusted chain and lock on the door . I have not activated the device as I was to call to request activation . Who the hell do I call ????? I have received no contract bearing information nor a SMS with a number to contact. All I have is a worthless device and a debit order for way in access of what was verbally quoted. I have called Rams Couriers, who obviously, is complicit [ if its hand to hand they must explain where the parcel was picked up] - Shanaaz said she will speak to her supervisor and revert - I am still waiting. I note that the complicity between Rams hand to hand courier services and Siyathembana Trading106 has been alluded to in other reviews on Hellopeter. I am livid as I now will have to close my account to ensure that the debit order does not go of . I am also fearful in light of the already unconscionable conduct ,my account will be debited for R5000-00 as compared to the R152-00 package sold. I am also reporting this ***** by misrepresentation to commercial crime . I WILL NOT BE TAKING ANY TELEPHONE MARKETING CALLS IN FUTURE AND I ADVISE THE PUBLIC TO ALSO BE VILIGANT.
