    Cool Ideas Fibre ISP – Feedback Thread 6

    @CoolHelp @CoolEscalator @PBCool Guys... My colleague was an existing customer with Vuma and CISP at his old premises. He started the process to get the existing Vodacom installation/line activated in his new house around 5 November 2024. It is now a month later and the line is still not...

    Rare cars on SA road - part 2

    If it is left-hand drive, then it's from the USA. If not, it's a fake. The Jetta GLi was never sold outside the North American market.

    Discovery Vitality 2024

    I'm certainly not keen on having Discovery access any more of my details than absolutely necessary, particularly my credit record for a zero-fee account. Why do they need that information? I'm not applying for a credit card? But I'm glad it works for you!

    Discovery Vitality 2024

    As I understand it, the Vitality status matters little from 2024 onwards since everyone gets a flat rate of 10% off flights, upped to 25% if a health check is done. The only way it does matter is if you're an Invest or Life Insurance client. On top of that, the only way to then increase your...

    The Suzuki Swift Sport (SSS) Thread

    It may just be her car, although I doubt it, since she bought it at 8,000km when it was less than a year old. The changes from first to second and even from second to third are noticeably jerky and harsh when cold. It's even apparent once the car has warmed up slightly. It only seems to go away...

    The Suzuki Swift Sport (SSS) Thread

    I'll see if I can get them for you. I was kicked off the group because I dared to say that the Swift Sport wasn't an incredible car...

    Summons for car accident damages

    Try to get the name and contact details of the person within your insurer's legal department who will be handling the matter. Then you can follow up with them to see how it's going and what the outcome is. Remember, the summons is against you, not your insurer. In the court's view, if the...

    The Suzuki Swift Sport (SSS) Thread

    Well done and welcome to the club! There is a club called Swift Speed which has plenty of members but is mainly WhatsApp-based. The forum is dead.

    The Suzuki Swift Sport (SSS) Thread

    My missus bought herself a 2022 SSS Auto. I'm not impressed with that gearbox...

    Considering selling my car - Chev Lumina SS to Suzuki Swift AMT

    Keep the Lumina but find a good independent mechanic. You'll be sad to see it go and you'll wish you never did. Old school pig-iron V8s are in high demand with the right crowd and a well cared-for SS will appeal to them.

    Beware the cheap Suzuki's

    Why not try responding like an adult instead of being grossly obtuse?

    Beware the cheap Suzuki's

    It's entirely obvious that @pinball wizard knows plenty about consumer protection law in SA, including the fact that there needs to be proof that the failure of a component was caused by a modification. So I'm sure @pinball wizard knows that a modified wheel nut is grounds to void the warranty...

    Discovery Vitality 2023

    This is exactly why Vitality is no longer worth it. I had a similar approach a couple years ago. Then I realised that I was training for Discovery's satisfaction instead of my own. Once I switched to a mindset that I should actually improve my health for my own sake because **** Discovery...

    Use BMW as a First Car or Use Suzuki Swift Sport 2015

    I've had my 2013 SSS since 2015. It's a phenomenal car and it's just as liveable as something from 2023. I added a CarPlay-enabled touchscreen to it myself and it looks as OEM as it possibly can, right down to keeping the factory-fitted USB port. It has keyless entry and start, xenon headlights...
