CEMAIR in financial trouble
In Feb 2026 I booked a return flight on CEMAIR from George WCape to Johannesburg. 3 days before the flight was due to take off, CEMAIR cancelled the flight without reason and gave me the option of a full refund, which I opted for. Now, 8 weeks later, I still haven't received my refund from CEMAIR, despite numerous calls and emails to them and I have a very distinct feeling that CEMAIR is in financial trouble. They do not have the money to refund passengers and I see they cancel more and more flights without reason. I would stay away from this airline and avoid booking any further flights for the time being - until we find out if they are being liquidated or not.

Useless short term insurance provider
This short term insurance company is the most useless online insurance company I have ever dealt with, when it comes to trying to make changes to my insurance policy with them. After having tried for 1 month to make changes to my policy, it is still not correct and the only conclusion I can reach, is that their online agents are totally illiterate and cannot even speak or read/ write basic English. I mean - I have sent more than 5 emails ( all with the same request for my changes to be made) and despite these written requests, they still cannot get my Policy Schedule correct... I am lost for words and have no idea how to sort this problem out..

SANI CAR RENTAL - Stay away as far as possible
Another horror story of a car rental company using sneaky and underhanded methods to fleece their customers out of money. The age old trick where you return a car with a full tank of fuel...after you personally checked that the fuel tank was filled to the brim.... only to get billed by the rental company afterwards ( without any notification or explanation to you) for an additional 10% of fuel... Their excuse is that you only filled the tank 90% full... What absolute nonsense... Just an easy way for the rental car employees to ***** the fuel and make the customers pay for it. Will now also stop using this useless and dishonest car rental company with their arrogant and condescending attitude.

Stay away from WOODFORD.!!!!
Worst car rental experience of my life. Stay away from this car rental company. They keep on debiting thousands of Rands against my credit card after I have given their car back in perfect condition and they give absolutely no explanation as to why these debits on my credit card keeps on going off. I have now reported Woodford to the relevant authorities and ABSA credit card ***** division and will open a case at the local SAPS station against this company.

Worst insurance company in South Africa
This must surely be the absolute worst short term insurance company in South Africa... I have been struggling for more than 2 weeks to get an insurance quote for my cars and household contents from this company. I have phoned them, enquired on their website... and yet despite all of this, they haven't even contacted me back... Santam is supposed to be one of the best in the insurance industry, so I cannot understand why they don't want new business... beats me. The service and responses to my enquiries which I have received from Outsurance and King Price are by far superior than Santam. Avoid Santam at all costs... they are arrogant and not interested in new clients

Don't buy a Suzuki car - rusts like hell
I have just found out that my 5 year old Suzuki Swift GL is badly rusted all over. I also see on social media that this is a common problem with theses inferior quality cars. The car is rusted all over - engine hood mechanism does not work anymore, body panels and cross members are badly rusted... chassis also. These popular cars are obviously inferior quality as no other car brand will rust after only 5 years. My VW Golf is 15 years old and no/zero rust. The Consumer Protection Ombud should immediately stop/prohibit Suzuki Auto SA from selling any more of their inferior quality cars in South Africa

WORST CAR RENTAL COMPANY IN SOUTH AFRICA
DON'T RENT A CAR FROM THIS COMPANY.... THEY WILL KEEP YOUR DEPOSIT FOR 3 TO 4 WEEKS AFTER YOU RETURN THE CAR... THEIR EXCUSE IS ALWAYS THAT IT TAKES TIME FOR THEIR BANK TO RETURN THE MONEY TO YOUR SPECIFIC BANK...YET, IT TAKES ONLY SECONDS FOR ANY BANK TO PAY THE MONEY INTO THE BANK ACCOUNT OF DOLLAR THRIFTY UPON RENTING THE CAR.... SO... WORST EXPERIENCE EVER

Worst Restaurant meal/food of my life
This restaurant is an absolute disgrace to the Ocean Basket name and brand. I had dinner there 2 nights ago and the food was absolutely horrible ( even though it was expensive). My seafood platter was burnt, the chips tasted of old & stale frying oil and the fish was watery and old.... Afterwards I almost got sick, just thinking about this expensive, but horrible meal.. Yuck... avoid avoid avoid. When I arrived at the restaurant at 18H15 and I was the only person in this huge restaurant, that should have been the first red flag to tell me that something was wrong and that most locals also avoids this place...maybe due to the bad food.

Avoid EMIRATES airline at all costs
Worst airline in the world. They have absolutely zero support once they have your money for a ticket which you have booked with them. I have an existing booking and I tried to change the flights/dates on the booking. Their website advised that I cannot do this online and that I must contact EMIRATES directly.... what a disaster... None of their contact telephone numbers WORLDWIDE works ( they all have automated voice messages replying) and none of their Live Chat options are available... basically, there is absolutely NO WAY to contact this airline directly... even if their website directs you in this way... What a shame... Avoid this airline at all costs
