The Courier Guy, Thabazimbi - How Shaun Harmse, The Branch Manager - Went The Extra Mile & More; To Rescue Me, Recover My iPhone - & They Did This For Free!

Going back almost 1 year, to 10 September 2024 – on the advice of a Cell-Phone Data Recovery Specialist in Durban I had already paid R28,000 for Data Recovery: I then had to send my iPhone from Thabazimbi, in Limpopo - to another, associated Data Recovery Specialist in Kathu, NC. So, on the advice of this 1st supposed Specialist in Durban – I had to send my iPhone to a second, apparently specially skilled & excellent Cell-Phone Data Recovery Specialist in Kathu, in the Northern Cape. --- This was when I met the young “Courier Guy Gentleman,” who I met while organising the Couriering Of My iPhone, from Thabazimbi – and this gentleman was Shaun Dalmaine Harmse, the Manager of the Thabazimbi Branch. Needless to say, Shaun Harmse was absolutely outstanding, polite and professional – in every way – in doing the successful organising, expediting and “Couriering” of my iPhone – to this Alleged Cell-Phone Data Recovery Specialist in Kathu, NC. Unfortunately, then, within just 2 weeks after my phone arrived at this Alleged Cell-Phone Data Recovery Specialist in Kathu, NC – I started having doubts, misgivings and worries about this Alleged Cell-Phone Data Recovery Specialist. This was because I had already paid an initial very hefty R28,000.00 to this Specialist’s 1st Business Partner, in Durban. But then, the Really Serious Grifting, Cheating, ***** & ****ming Began – with this 2nd Grifter in Kathu, NC. This So-Called “Specialist” in Kathu, NC - very soon, almost immediately proved to be an absolutely DISGUSTING, SMAMELESS ****MER, ******* & GRIFTER – and unfortunately for me, he was in possession of my very valuable iPhone. Also, just like his friend & colleague in Kathu NC, the 1st original So-Called “Specialist” in Durban; also very quickly proved to be equally as disgusting, also a ****MER & ******* --- This 2nd “Specialist” in Kathu, NC – After ****ming an ADDITIONAL R7.500.00 from me; saying he needed to buy ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE & PROGRAMS to successfully RECOVER THE LAST DATA from my iPHONE, with 100% CER*****Y --- But as soon as he got this ADDITIONAL R7,500.00 from me, which now added up to R35,500.00 (along with the original R28,000.00 I’d already paid in August) he then IMMEDIATELY PROCEEDED TO BLOCK & IGNORE ME COMPLETELY. He absolutely would not reply to me, by DIRECT PHONE-CALLS, WHATSAPP, TEXTS & E-MAILS – HE TOTALLY BLOCKED & IGNORED ME FOR A WHOLE MONTH. And then, only by miracle; only by using a relative’s cell-phone – I eventually managed to get this ****MER ON THE PHONE (once again, only by using someone else’s phone) – I then promised him that – I SYMPATHISED DEEPLY THAT HE HAD JUST GOT “LUNG CANCER” (A Huge & Disgusting “Sympathy, ****ming Lie”; I Am 99.9% Sure; Just Like The Other ****mer In Durban Also Blatantly **** As Well, Simultaneously Telling Me He’d Just Had Open Heart Surgery!!) – BUT AS SOON AS I GOT THIS DISGUSTING ****MER ON THE PHONE AGAIN -- I TOLD HIM VERY NICELY THAT HE REALLY SHOULD NOT WORRY – NOT AT ALL; BECAUSE I SUSPECTED THAT, HE HAD STILL NOT BEEN ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY RECOVER MY DATA --- BUT I WOULD BE HAPPY TO PAY HIM MUCH MORE MONEY – IF HE COULD STILL SUCCESSFULLY RECOVER MY DATA. As soon as I was so nicely, hugely friendly to him, & also seemingly “DESPERATE,” because I desperately offered MUCH MORE MONEY TO HIM, HE GOT EXCITED; by saying that I’d pay him even MUCH MORE MONEY, AS MUCH EXTRA MONEY THAT HE WOULD NEED to recover my lost iPHONE DATA --- -- MY PROMISES OF MORE MONEY GOT HIS GREEDY, OPPORTUNISTIC MIND WORKING -- & THIS WAS WHEN HE IMMEDATELY SAID HE WOULD NOW NEED ANOTHER, EXTRA R15,500.00 --- So I would now be paying him R35,500.00 + the EXTRA R15,500.00 --- Which Would Now Amount to a WHOPPING R51,000.00 ALTOGETHER – --- HOWEVER, in order for me to be able to pay him this extra R15,5K (or R51K, altogether, to him and his *****ed, thieving friend) --- --- I WOULD NOW VERY URGENTLY NEED MY PHONE BACK, ASAP – BECAUSE I HAD NOW NOT HAD MY iPhone FOR ALMOST 2 MONTHS -- --- So, please, please, please – would he please courier my iPhone back to me, IMMEDIATELY & ASAP? – --- But this ****, ****MER & ****** had now moved from Kathu, NC – to Posmasburg, NC – Because he and his family had just been kicked out of their home in Kathu, NC, because of non-rent payment – So MY EXTRA R15,500.00 (R51,000.00 altogether) – would now really help him and his family. --- However, despite him promising that he would COURIER MY PHONE IMMEDIATELY – BACK TO MY FRIEND IN Pietermaritzburg, KZN – --- After 2 more frustrating weeks of promising, HE STILL HAD NOT COURIERED MY PHONE BACK TO ME. Also, this whole above story that took place; as from 10 September last year, 10 September 2024 – --- Also took place, with me having left South Africa to come to Canada – just 2 days after I couriered the phone to him, on 12 September last year. So, having been in Canada, almost the whole time that all the above events took place --- --- I had absolutely no way --- TO GO AND COLLECT OR TRY TO GET BACK THE PHONE, MYSELF --- --- AND THIS IS BECAUSE I AM IN CANADA, AND HAVE BEEN HERE --- FOR MOST OF THE ABOVE EVENTS (but, I will soon be returning from Canada, to live back home in South Africa, permanently!) --- --- & THIS WAS WHERE & WHEN, in utter desperation, BEING STUCK ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD, HERE IN CANADA, because I really did not know what else to do --- --- This was when I called Shaun | Dalmaine Harmse – at “The Courier Guy” in Thabazimbi NC, in desperation and panic. --- AND, immediately sensing my UTTER DESPERATION, PANIC & HELPLESSNESS – --- This was where Shaun stepped in to help – & HE TOOK CONTROL --- ABSOLUTELY, COMPLETELY & VERY COMPETENTLY. --- Even though Shaun was based VERY FAR AWAY from Kathu & Posmasburg, NC -- Being based in Thabazimbi, Limpopo ---- --- This was when he, Shaun, sent “THE COURIER GUY” all the way to POSMASBURG from KATHU (NC) – Nearly 100 kms, or 200 kms round trip; and even then ---- --- This DISGUSTING ******* in POSMASBURG, NC --- once again tried to ELICIT, **** AND BUM and EXTRA R2,500.00 – “Up-Front Payment” directly from the “Courier Guy” – --- But Shaun very deftly stepped in to say that the “Courier Guy” Drivers are not allowed to carry cash, and somehow – by being utterly calm, professional and VERY, VERY QUICK --- ----- On Friday 8 November last year, 8 November 2024 --- ----- Shaun successfully managed to get his DRIVER from KATHU, NC --- To drive all the way to POSMASBURG, NC – ----- And also, for this DRIVER from KATHU, NC – TO ALSO REMAIN CALM & PROFESSIONAL -- ----- The Driver then successfully collected my iPHONE10XR -- From this utterly disgusting, ****ming, lying, reprehensible *****!

And then, not only did Shaun successfully “SAVE” and RETRIEVE my very valuable iPHONE10XR from this *****, but he also then had it successfully delivered to my Zulu friend in Pietermaritzburg, KZN – On Wednesday, 13 November 2024!

Then, finally, a month or two later, in December 2024 or January 2025 --- --- When I phoned Shaun | Dalmaine Harmse; to ask him how I could pay him & “The Courier Guy” – --- FOR THIS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, UNBEATABLE AND JAW-DROPPING CUSTOMER SERVICE – ------- He told me not to worry --- THAT I DID NOT HAVE TO PAY ANYTHING AT ALL!

In summary, Shaun and “The Courier Guy” went totally & completely OUT OF THEIR WAY, FETCHING AND RESCUING MY VERY valuable iPHONE10XR, from a KNOWN AND PROVEN *****, in small Northern Cape Town, Posmasburg – Where they do not even have a branch – --- And then, to ADD EVEN MORE INCREDIBLE BENEFITS, FAVOURS & SPECIAL TREAMENT --- They ALSO DELIVERED MY iPHONE10XR --- To my friend in KZN, on the other side of South Africa. Also the ******* had not even packaged my phone either – --- But via Shaun & his fantastic “Courier Guy Colleagues,” based in Kathu, NC – ------ THEY TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY RESCUED MY iPhone, FROM THIS KNOWN AND PROVEN ******* and ****MER.

Shaun Dalmaine Harmse is not only my saviour: He is my GOOD SAMARITAN, HERO, RESCUER and SAINT. I totally admire and respect Shaun --- and his brilliant, out-of-the-box service ---- also reflects directly and hugely positively on “The Courier Guy!” I have always previously, & also subsequently --- Used “The Courier Guy” as my ONE & ONLY courier company in South Africa –-- And now I know that Shaun Harmse & “The Courier Guy” are UNBEATABLY GOOD, RELIABLE, DECENT & OUTSTANDING – ------ They are not only “AS GOOD AS IT GETS” – but they could not possibly be any better than they already are!
