For those of you considering a Stellantis vehicle I strongly advise that you reconsider your life’s choices. You need one of their vehicles like you need a hole in your head (you don’t). Owning one of their vehicles makes you wonder where you went wrong in life and who you wronged to deserve such poor treatment from Stellantis. I used to be an advocate for their vehicles but now I wouldn’t even recommend them to my enemy. Truthfully, aftermarket support for Jeep is half decent but getting support for Peugeot/Citroen you have a better chance of hitting the powerball. Take it from someone who has owned a combine13 Peugeot, Citroen and Jeep vehicles over the last two decades avoid Peugeot & Citroen like you avoid your in-laws at family gatherings. My 2.3 tonne Citroen paper weight requires four engine mounts (This is a wear item and one would expect it to need replacing at some or other time). Two of the four mounts are no longer in production and no aftermarket company makes mounts either. One of the four mounts is available to order from France, available within 8 weeks. From experience that’s more like 10 weeks and the last mount is available in local stock. I have made repeated attempts to get hold of someone in management at Stellantis SA to hear what they recommend I do seen as the engine mounts are no longer in production. Best of all the Citroen C5’s final model year was 2016. This means Stellantis has deemed it acceptable to discontinue spares availability on a vehicle that has just gone over 10 years in age and don’t think it is just the C5 affected. No, these engine mounts are shared by a few other Peugeot/Citroen models. So please follow this advise and avoid any Stellantis vehicle as you may find yourself with a car which you can no longer reasonably maintain due to the company that originally sold it to you refusing to continue parts availability.
I don’t know what is going on at Geewiz! Is it a staffing issue or are you struggling to scale? I’ve been a long-time customer since 2015, consistently ordering both for myself and for work. However, of late your service has been completely unreliable. Slow deliveries, items ordered only for a week to pass to be informed “out of stock” and completely incorrect deliveries. This has a knock-on effect of having to wait weeks for in action from Geewiz, then having to source components from other suppliers. All this causes un-necessary delay. In future I will go to the likes of Regal, Mantech and Communica before attempting any purchase from Geewiz.
Leroy Merlin needs to overhaul their online ordering system. Last year an order was placed for in store collection. What a mess that was, did however get my order after a few hours arguing in store. Fast forward a year later hoping things have improved. I placed an order on the 5th of September for delivery, today (11 Sep) I phone the support number to follow up on the order only to be told no order has been dispatched owing to no payment… I paid online with a card, the funds have left my account I have a payment confirmation from Pay Gate! Now Leroy tells me they need to talk to finance to get the payment allocated so the order can be dispatched. Seriously , how can a company be this bad at online orders? At this rate I should have purchased in store and arranged for a courier company to collect and deliver.
Called into Santam to enquire my premium. Was assisted by Kaya who was most helpful. Not only was my increased premium reversed but lowered slightly over what it had been in previous months.
Really disappointed by your service, you’re no better than Telkom. Requested a number port of a business land line to Vodacom. What a long drawn out process with many delays from the Telkom end which Vodacom provided no assistance with. I’m assuming the port has now been completed as the office line went dead 2 days ago. I’ve been sending emails to the Vodacom representative that was supposedly assisting with the port to hear what the next step is to get the new VOIP phone setup. E-mails don’t get responded to, contact numbers provided don’t work. Telkom was easier to deal with/contact than you lot over at Vodacom.
Thank you to Johan and team. This was my first purchase from Osmotech and it certainly won't be the last. The process was seamless and regular updates were provided over email.
Santam really needs to re-consider who they sign on as repair partners. On the 2nd of December at 8:10am I reported a windscreen claim due to a crack caused by a stone the day prior on my trip down to the coast. I informed Santam that I need it sorted within a month as I will be traveling back to Gauteng end of December. Santam consequently appointed Autoboys George as the glass fitter. Long story short we are now two weeks down the line, I still have a cracked windscreen all the while the vehicle agents in SA have OE glass available within 3-4 days. Absolutely no assistance from Santam in speeding up the process or providing explanation for the delay. Christmas is coming but I doubt there’ll be a windscreen by then.
I cannot begin to describe how angry and dissatisfied I am with Nedbank. A little more than a week ago I applied for a Gold credit card online. The entire application process and supplying the requested documents was a pleasurable one, however since then it has became a disaster. Today is Saturday the 19th of December. I went to the Cradlestone branch to collect my card and I was there at 7:45am (as were four other customers) as the information online indicated the branch opened at 8 am. What we found was that the branch only opens at 8:30am. I have subsequently processed a Google correction on your behalf to correctly indicate your Saturday branch hours seen as your management is too lazy to go to the admin of doing so! Pathetic! At 8:30am I was given a letter to sign indicating that I have collected my card (which I signed) I was also given the pricing structure indicating the type of credit card as well as the respective bank fees. These monthly bank fees were 23% higher than those indicated on my online application. I was informed that the branch cannot correct the pricing agreement and because I refuse to sign the incorrect price agreement the card had to be destroyed. Needless to say I left the branch with no credit card, no timeline/details as to how the fees are going to be corrected. I was left disgusted and completely speechless as to how a financial institution such as Nedbank could be so pathetically clueless. Regards,
