refused to close my account or call head offiice
On the 29th August to went to Phalaborwa Branch to close my account. The assistants reffused to close it and then, I asked them to give me a phone, so that I can speak to head office myself to close the account, they refused t too. They said I must use my own airtime to call head office. I requested to see the manager, who told me she cannot close the account because she will be introuble with the head office. \I must keep the account openned"";15/09/03 11:40;NULL;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;316656;839888;16;2;0;0;0;0;2;NULL;NULL;NULL;15/08/29 15:11;15/08/29 13:18;Internet speed not fixed after multiple calls;YEN001;;***;Internet speed has not been fixed after calling in 3 times and logged 3 calls on there online help desk site<br> Had one call from a technician and that was it , the problem has not been fixed <br> I am paying for the highest service for 10 MEG speed and only getting 1 MEG at the moment , Ping rate is estimated 200 ms response times.<br> <br> This is very bad service not knowing what is going on.<br> <br> Please check and advise <br> <br> I specifically moved away from Telkom due to this problem and went wireless.;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;889749;890788;18;2;0;0;0;0;2;NULL;NULL;NULL;15/08/29 0:00;15/08/29 13:21;bad service;;olga ***;***;I went the to buy vegetables in bulks we had three big trolleys, normally if you buy many things we r told not to go around the till in order to pay you just stand in front of the till then you pay.

Firstly they put them on a Mango flight from CT to Jhb even though I bought the SAA ticket and then told her they could not book baggage all the way through to her destination. That took about 30 minutes to sort out. Once she got to Jhb and boarded the flight, they had placed them in the last row of seats that do not go back, right next to the toilets where people congregate all night. Our kids hardly slept and the flight was a nightmare for my wife. One would think that SAA would think about people traveling with kids and seat them properly. I now have issues on the flight back that SAA cannot help me with because it is a code share for part of the trip and they say I must call Scandinavian Airlines myself. I paid for their ticket and they cannot help. I have not flown SAA for a number of years due to their poor service and thought I would give them another chance. Mistake on my side to have done that. I rate SAA as the worst airline that I have ever flown.;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;850687;890829;18;2;0;0;0;0;2;NULL;NULL;NULL;15/08/29 16:11;15/08/29 14:39;Pathetic customer service ;8,71E+12;Joy;***;My wife and I booked an appointment for 4 for a full body massage at Sandton skin &;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;662381;880207;15;2;0;0;0;0;2;NULL;NULL;NULL;15/08/29 16:26;15/08/29 14:45;manager insulting customer;8,00E+12;Enoch;***;We booked a venue for a birthday party, when we arrived the patron refused us to enter and called the manager, he refused to let us in and said he does not have a knowledge of the booking.

They promised that by the first week of January 2015 they would have put it up due to them being busy. I kept on calling over the months until the first of August, I drove there with friends as witnesses and spoke with the owner Hannes Kokemoer. The secretary Maartie typed out an agreement that Hannes signed stating that it would be installed within the next two days. The Tombstone has still not been installed. I have patiently waited and tried to reason with them. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;889765;890791;17;2;0;0;0;0;2;NULL;NULL;NULL;15/08/29 17:31;15/08/29 15:38;No booking made on last complaint;C84013;Anthea;***;I booked a city to city from grahamstown which did not arrive and wrote a compalint yesterday.

She cannot throw food at me as thou she is buying it for me! If she didnt want to write a rein check for me, she should have said so. At the end of the day she needs to realise that we as customers play a part in her getting paid at the end of the month. And we expect her and her colleagues to respect us as customers!;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;886288;691049;20;2;0;0;0;0;2;NULL;NULL;NULL;15/08/29 17:31;15/08/29 16:04;Mochachos Norwood Only Delivers within 5 km's;;Delivery Drivers;***;I sometimes like to order a delivery (as this is a service offered by Mochacho's). The policy of the delivery has recently changed and they now only deliver within 5km's. This is ok for me as my complex is only 4.7km away as accurately determined by Google maps. <br> <br> When I told the woman taking my order that she told me that I am wrong (so much for the customer always being right). The driver has told her that it is to far (personally if I was the driver I would also say it is to far if it ment extra work for me). I was then told I must come a collect and there is nothing else she can do. She also referred me to other branches.<br> <br> I am a frequent loyal customer and I get highly frustrated when a service is offered but not agreed too. I am not a lazy person and for me to drive the 4.7km to collect my food would normally be no problem. But as a matter of principle I will not be using the Mochacho's in Norwood again. If a service is offered a service should be delivered. The fundamental thing about any successful business is service delivery and customer satisfaction. <br> <br> This is a shame as as I do recommend Norwood Mochacho's as one of the best in terms of quality of food. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;298229;227;14;5;0;0;0;0;5;NULL;NULL;NULL;15/08/29 19:16;15/08/29 17:26;great service ;;simnikiwe;***;On the 29th August, went to Woolies Vincent, they didn't have the item and they found it in Hemingways, and I requested that they set it aside. Went to the kidies side counter to collect and the cashier told me to go upstairs at customer service counter which I did. When I got there the item was not set aside. The cashier Simnikiwe, told me she would go look for it , not sure where, she came back empty handed she asked if I knew who they spoke to and I gave the name she called the lady but could not get hold of her. She came back and ask me for a description of the item which I described, she found it. I was so amazed, she was friendly and helpful. Thanks once again Simnikiwe,keep it up. That is rare and great customer service right there.;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;617127;163;14;5;0;1;0;0;5;NULL;NULL;NULL;15/08/29 19:10;15/08/29 17:30;Pluimpie vir SPAR op Springbok, Noordkaap;;Algemeen;***;Ek meld nie graag my tevredenheid met produkte of diens nie.
