No thanx, I will go stand 2hrs in the queue once a year anyday

Might be worth it - not sure what other options there are in the EC. The Post offices are a nightmare with all the grant recipients queuing.

Nobody deserves to have to drink Black Label.

You see ladies and gentlemen, now this is a smart guy - if someone told you to stand in a queue for 1-2 hours and you will get a case of Zamalek, the queues would be snaking from JHB to CPT

Well, isn't rule number 1 the customer is always right?

You not the only one. 60 000 000 potential customers also live in the country.

In my case their business model does not make sense. Why would I walk past the Post Office to the Pick 'n Pay and stand in their long queues just to pay for a renewal and then have to wait 10 days for delivery?

At the PO I'll get it immediately. And their queues are shorter than PnP's. If PnP's service was 100% online, then yes, it would make a big difference.

How about following the UK & AU's example of doing away with the physical discs altogether?

Huh - so even the babies and toddlers are standing in the queue? And everyone in SA owns a car?

My banker does license disc renewals for my fleet and personal vehicles at no extra cost apart from me paying his driver for fuel to go to the licensing station.

Who’s your banker?

Potential.

And? Their service does not work for me, so I won't support them. If you like it go ahead and support them.

But then how would you know the vehicle is licensed if the cop can't look in the right place on the windscreen to see the Disc...

Also how else would you get people to pay their R70 odd rand admin fee to print a piece of paper

I pay this random lady on whatsapp R50 and she comes drop the stuff afterwords.

Got someone here to do it too. Charges R100. Now if she does 20 a day, that's R2k tax free.

And they probably do like 50 to 100 a day. I'm sure the traffic departments love it.

Last year they charge me R199.

The plates of the vehicle are linked to the license, so any smartphone should be able to verify the status through NaTIS.

But like really, you expect the police officer to use technology and that that technology will still be working after 3 days?
