    All the South African bank branches that offer smart ID services

    Does anyone know if naturalised citizens can apply for SA passports through these bank branches? I know they're not entitled to smart ID cards, but are naturalised citizens welcome to book appointments and do the passport applications if they're clients of these banks?

    Would you 'resettle' in the US if Trump gave you refugee status?

    Not quite. Our people voted the ANC. Those voters had no say in who represented that party. Also the USA is a lot more mature than us. We have citizens displaying blind loyalty towards the ruling party. I remember clips from the last Democratic Party Convention where one of the states refused to...

    Would you 'resettle' in the US if Trump gave you refugee status?

    Nope. I don't want to live in a country that votes someone like him into power.

    Second-hand Tesla vs importing one from the US

    I bought my 98 Tazz for R30k. Sold it a decade later in the year 2017 for R50k. Mine had no power steering, no night time rear mirror dim and no rev counter. No aircon. Basic 1.3 carb engine. It did, however get me from Joburg to Pretoria. Jozi to Limpopo. Jozi to Nelspruit. Jozi to Durban. Jozi...

    Who would you vote for in the US elections?

    I'd vote for the Dems but Biden is too old IMHO. If I were an American Democrat I'd want another candidate to represent that party.

    Home Affairs years behind on plan to completely replace ID books

    I personally don't see the point of getting a smart ID card. I never go anywhere with my ID unless it's to apply for something. My driver's license card is what I use to identify myself. When the smart ID cards were first introduced I was in no rush to go get one. The idea of taking a whole day...

    FlySafair fixes issue that potentially allowed attackers to bypass R10 ticket queue

    I waited for hours and never got in. Woke up this morning to Telegram channel messages about 30% off flights and headed to the website. I got in, after around a minute of waiting room. Started my booking process and went all the way to the payment page where it kept giving me errors. Said my...

    FlySafair announces R10 ticket sale for tomorrow

    I see that there's 1 ticket available for the outbound leg of my flight, so they are being sold for sure. Still 4 seats on the inbound flight. I did not refresh. It automatically showed (on Firefox desktop). I see there's now a few days sold out for the month I'm interested in.

    FlySafair announces R10 ticket sale for tomorrow

    I see they still have tickets available for this and next weekend. Looks very sus! Surely some of the early birds would have taken those already? Any forumites who successfully got tickets please do post here just to confirm that it's working. *Edit: Joburg -> CT flights

    FlySafair announces R10 ticket sale for tomorrow

    Been waiting in the queue for an hour. My target seats are still available (both directions). I'm holding in my poop because I'm scared to lose my queue spots on the pages on my laptop and tablet. As soon as both my dates are gone, I'll leave.

    Who will win the US elections this year?

    Voted for "I don't care". I wish the Democrats had a younger candidate. One with energy and vigour. On a personal note, I don't think the outcome will make much of a difference to me.
