    Digital banking price comparison - Bank Zero vs TymeBank vs Discovery

    I had a few incidents where an actual bank branch would have been great! A debit order I ended went through and there was nothing I could do to get help with my Tyme Bank account. With Capitec it's possible to cancel a debit order and request a cashback. This can be done via the app for certain...

    Can I merge 2 WhatsApp accounts?

    So I have my old prepaid SIM/number which I'll keep using, and am cancelling my contract SIM. Cell C make you use a new number when you sign up for a contract. Couldn't use my existing prepaid number when I signed up. I want to migrate my contract WhatsApp conversations to my prepaid account...

    Do you use LinkedIn?

    I clicked on "other". I have a LinkedIn account but have not logged on in around 5 years. I wasn't sure how to answer the question. It's like having a working mercedes in the garage, parked for 5 years and never driven during that time...when you're asked if you drive a Merc.

    Major outage at Capitec

    This is one of those moments where I'm glad I have several sources to pull money from, and more than 1 bank account. Unfortunately major debit orders go off my Capitec account so it is kinda important. A full day later and the system is still down. I run my own business and can only take my...

    Former customer, query about trying to go online

    Yes I know this is a strange post, but I need help. I cancelled my fibre line in May and by the last week of May got confirmation that my contract was cancelled. I was not billed in June. I am trying to go online and using the Afrihost issued router to do so. Even though I changed the settings...

    How to tell the year of used laptop models?

    Thanks for the advice. It's been 10 years since I've had to buy a desktop or laptop of any sorts, and I lost interest in the war between AMD and Intel along the years (real life took priority). I will take your points into consideration when buying.

    How to tell the year of used laptop models?

    I searched and the results all assume that you have the laptop with you. I am looking in the 2nd hand market and whenever I type the make/models of the laptops I just get the specs and not the year/s they were first released. I am overseas and want to buy something with an i7 chip to bring back...

    Need to convert VHS tapes to digital format

    Good day all. I searched the topic and came across threads that did not answer my query (the person in the top result already had the machine to do the conversion). I need to buy the actual hardware to convert the tapes to digital format. I have around 100 tapes that I want to convert to...

    UberGo affordable e-hailing service now available in South Africa

    I've been using Uber Nam since December and at first there were few cars. Conditions were your destination could not be the airport. What I noticed was that the same cars on the regular Uber were on Nam. I've never had a hatchback pick me up. It's also the same drivers too. They do complain...
