    Have you ever been scammed?

    Yes, bought travel insurance from a well known company. Needed emergency medical treatment abroad. They insisted I pay the hospital promising to pay me back. Still waiting for the R100k they owe me. I don't expect to ever see the money.

    One Eskom union thinks 7% salary increase is not enough

    One Eskom union thinks 7% salary increase is not enough

    Increases should.be limited to the inflation rate. They really have a cheek to be complaining about an increase that is already almost 3 percent above.

    Big concerns over the Post Office's ability to deliver essential notices under the AARTO system

    Notices will be delivered late or never and since it is email or SMS they cannot and will not need to prove that it had been delivered within the prescribed time.

    New tax for everyone who owns a car in South African on the cards

    In the good old days before the ANC came and fu***"d everything up, we had compulsory third party insurance that you could buy for a reasonable price at the insurance company of your choice. It worked perfectly, claims were settled within weeks and everybody was happy. That is the model we...

    South Africans filing their taxes face 200% penalties, interest charges and criminal prosecution

    The tax man needs to stop threatening and learn to be a little bit humbler. After all, he is taking our hard-earned money and the least he can do is thank us for our sacrifice - it is not as if we are getting anything in return for it.

    Kia Sonet sold in South Africa achieves 1-star adult protection rating

    But is was so easy to repair that most owners could do a complete engine rebuild in an afternoon with basic tools. The engine was so light that you could take it out of the car with your hands.

    The GWM Haval Jolion sold in South Africa scored a 2-star safety rating

    What a stupid statement. Do you think you are the only person on the road? You may know how to drive but does the other people on the road know?

    The GWM Haval Jolion sold in South Africa scored a 2-star safety rating

    I still walk with a limp and have a scar on my face because I had an accident in a car without air bags. Many people died and others have been crippled or disfigured by unsafe cars. Most cars made in India that are sold here are death traps, find something better and if you cannot afford a...

    New iOS and iPadOS adds keyboards for South African languages

    Hoekom? Ek praat goeie Afrikaans by die huis en verwag van slim goed in my huis om ook Afrikaans te praat.

    New iOS and iPadOS adds keyboards for South African languages

    This was one of the main reasons why I refused to buy an Apple product. Google, Gemini, Copilot, my Samsung Phone, my car, my computer and even my TV speaks Afrikaans to me but all Apple products refuse to do so. The keyboard alone will not make me buy an iPhone, they need to support other...

    People who paid E-tolls will not get a refund: Cabinet

    And to think they could have resolved the whole issue at the time with a 15 c per litre levy on fuel. How stupid can you get.

    New Members and Strong Growth For The Freedom Front Plus

    It is actually true. You do waste you vote if you vote for smaller parties. Proportional Representation does not guarantee that every vote counts, it only means that it averages out the votes. Take a spreadsheet and do the sums for yourself. Pay particular attention to the quota as defined by...
