Dial A Nerd
4 months ago
Nightmare experience on buying a new PC rfom a company we once trusted and now could never recommend.
My husband and I have been using Dial a Nerd for 22 years and have previously had good, reliable service. In January 2026, I required a new computer so we returned to them. What a disappointment to experience the lack of knowledge and professionalism from both the salesman [whom I understand is no longer with the company ] and the IT tech. During the transfer of information from my old PC to the new PC approximately 40% was completely lost and the IT tech had no idea how to find it. He had transferred my various folders to the hard drive, but most of the folders were empty and what was there was completely jumbled. It appears he copied the folders over, but without any of their content. Months of work had simply evaporated. As a result, I had to get a completely independent IT tech [at my own cost] to sort out the issues that Dial a Nerd simply didn't know how to fix. I trust the directors and HR department are cognisant of this pronounced deterioration in the company we once supported.

Shocking service from Take-a-Lot customer support.
My Take-a-Lot account was frozen due to the MTN breach, with attempted *****ulent purchases amounting to over R 36,000. That was on 25 April and I have been trying to get the account unblocked till today, 21st May. I have sent 5 emails, none of which have been rep**** to. I have spoken to 6 so--called consultants and they each say they will send me a link to reset my password however Take-a-Lot has blocked any emails coming through to the one I associate with my account. I have explained this to them however to no avail. Each consultant says yes we can see your account has been blocked and we will send you an email with a link which of course never arrives because they have blocked any emails outgoing from their side to me. I have spent I don't know how much money on phone calls!! Up until now I have never had a problem with Take-a-Lot, however this has been absolutely beyond the pale and I am strongly considering ditching them big time after having been a customer for at least 10 years.

absolute **** and evil rip-off artists
this site is a complete ****. I ordered a frying pan on 8 October and received nothing. On enquiry I was told that the "supplier was delayed" - a common story it would seem from others who have also been duped. I then requested a refund, which I was promised "within 10 days" and that was at least a month ago! The physical address given on the website is 423 Whisken Ave, Kyalami, which does not appear to exist either.
