SA Banking Ombudsman Reveals Most Common Complaints about Banks & Bankers – FNB had Most Complaints!

Posted on Leave a comment

More than 7,700 official complaints have been lodged with the Ombudsman for Banking Services in South Africa, who published their annual report for the 2020 financial year, which contains the most common complaints against banks, as well as bankers, because the relationship between larger customers and the banker is also in the report. 6,472 complaints were received the previous year (2019).

Some complaints are brought to the attention of the Bank with the expectation of getting a response to them and for reporting to the Ombudsman. In this regard, the Ombudsman referred 8,389 cases back to the Banks concerned, which is a sharp increase compared to the 4,709 returned to banks in 2019.

Complaints related to matters on current accounts included fraud, fees charged, and other costs, as well as banks’ negligence in issuing warnings of accounts to be closed by the bank. The Ombudsman also closed 981 accounts involving internet fraud.

Fitch Rating Agency Warns ANC Regime over Uncontrolled Spending and Unproductive Public Sector Salaries!

Posted on Leave a comment

In a study published last week, the Fitch credit rating agency has warned the ANC government, which is still reluctant to consider public sector salary demands for the next three-year term, over it’s inability to exercise control over spending, which could lead to further budget problems.

The ratings agency pointed out that the compensation paid to public sector workers, which makes up a massive 35% of the workforce, will not yield good results, and furthermore, any salary increases and adjustments could be detrimental, as the country’s growth will only be around 2% for the financial year.

In response to the agency’s report, Nazmeera Moola, head of SA Investments, claimed that the agencies were inclined to be skeptical of the ANC government’s ability to stick to its position of 0% increase in remuneration.

He says there is also doubt about the government’s ability to create growth in the economy, and while it was a source of concern, the ANC government is appa

Young White Worker Killed in Philippi Township, Nothing Stolen! Why are Black Townships Still No Go Zones for Whites?

Posted on Leave a comment

An innocent young man, Kyle Venter  (20) from Bergvliet in Cape Town, has been shot and killed in cold blood in the black township of Philippi East, however nothing was stolen, so are we to assume it is just because he was a white guy caught alone in a black township, because, let’s be honest, whites risk their lives just going into black townships!

Kyle worked for a construction company and was doing deliveries in the area on Wednesday 12 May, at around 15:45. At the corner of Stock road and Symphony road, a vehicle drove into the back of Kyle’s Hyundai 120.

Kyle’s grandfather, Andre Venter, told Netwerk24 that Kyle was then shot dead. Nothing was stolen from Kyle’s car according to his grandfather. The Police have confirmed that it was murder.

Why is it literally life threatening for a white person to enter black townships, even though blacks can do anything they please at anytime in mostly white residential areas? Being robbed is almost certain. Being the

Body of Missing Man (82) with Alzheimer’s from Pretoria, Found in Witbank Morgue

Posted on Leave a comment

The body of the 82-year-old man with Alzheimer’s, John Rodda, who has been missing since Saturday, while apparently on his way to the pharmacy, has been found in a morgue in Witbank.

Rodda had Alzheimer’s and was last seen on Saturday leaving the retirement home in Wilgers, Pretoria. His family had contacted private detective Mike Bolhuis for help in locating him, and it was on Bolhuis’ platform that an employee of a mortuary in Witbank, saw that Rodda was wanted.

The employee then contacted Bolhuis and conveyed the news to him that Rodda had been in a car accident, and had died in a hospital in Witbank. A post-mortem was done and it was determined that he died due to the injuries he sustained during the car accident.

Information regarding the collision has not yet been released at this stage and the incident is being further investigated.

Was Magashule’s Bluffing? With no Power Base, he Seems Destined to Become the ANC’s Scapegoat…

Posted on Leave a comment

Ace Magashule, the disgraced ANC Secretary-General, does not seem to have a solid a power base as was suspected, given that the trade union Cosatu has also made strong statements against Ace, who only has time until the end of the week to apologize to  the country and to Cyril Ramaphosa, for his actions and corruption.

Magashule’s letter in which he had unilaterally stated that he,  as the Secretary General of the ANC party, was suspending Cyril, seems to have caused the the spark in the powder keg, that cost him dearly, if he does not comply with the order.

Ace has however stated that he would not apologize, something he will probably regret as it could mean he would not get another lower position elsewhere, and could even be kicked out of the ANC. That said, he seems to be more aligned with the SACP in recent times.

The suspicion that Ace could mobilize support from Cosatu, having now disappeared like mist before the sun, after the union said Ace is no big

Solidarity Taking Sisulu to Court to Stop Racist & Illegal Importation of Cuban Engineers!

Posted on Leave a comment

The Solidarity trade union has announced that they are continuing with a court application to force the minister of Water Affairs, Lindiwe Sisulu, to cancel her planned import of 24 Cuban water engineers, into South Africa at a cost of R65 million, especially since it was revealed that Sisulu refused to appoint qualified white engineers who have applied for the posts, simply because they were white.

Sisulu made this shameful admission in an interview with Radio 2000, yet Sisulu has not abandoned her Cuban import plans and is using stalling tactics like demanding more talks with Solidarity after Monday’s meeting.

Solidarity had the meeting with Minister Sisulu to try convince Sisulu to appoint South Africans to the post but she is not budging which is why on Tuesday Mr. Dirk Hermann of Solidarity told the media that Solidarity is continuing with the court process.

Solidarity had previously made a list of over a 100 suitably qualified South African engineers ava

ANC Government wants to Establish a State Bank, in Line with their Socialist Principles. Hint: Central Banks are Private!

Posted on Leave a comment

In keeping with the Socialist principle that the State must own and control everything, as with the ANC’s National Health Insurance Scheme, the National Treasury said it was also moving forward with the establishment of a state-owned bank for South Africa, and that Cyril Ramaphosa, and the Minister of Finance, Tito Mboweni, were supporting it. It might surprise many to discover that the Central Bank is in fact privately owned, as it is worldwide.

Last week, Treasury Director-General Dondo Mogajane said the new state-run Bank was part of the ANC president’s radical reforms and rumor has it that the members of the Committee, who are involved in the matter, are blaming the Treasury for delaying and dragging their feet in carrying out the matter to establish the Bank.

Experts in the economic field have expressed concern about the planned establishment of a state-owned bank and some analysts say it will eventually become just another state owned entity that will not r

Ramaphosa Tries the “Apartheid Whip” Scam to Destroy Multinational Covid Patent Profits & Guilt Trip Covid Vaccines from Wealthy Countries!

Posted on Leave a comment

Just mention “Apartheid” and white people go limp and start throwing free stuff at blacks. The ANC regime have become Billionaires off of this scam, which is why the ANC government in Pretoria has threatened to accuse wealthy nations of hoarding Covid jabs, and “vaccine apartheid,” if they don’t share Covid jabs. South Africa’s Cyril Ramaphosa has got the old well worn begging bowl out again, accompanied by all the well used, tried and tested rhetoric to extract more hand outs from the West. As a selling tool he raises the spectre of millions of people in poorer countries (to whom the West have given Billions for decades), which may die waiting to be inoculated against Covid-19, as rich countries inoculate their own people. He accused wealthy nations of “hoarding jabs” and reaffirmed his support for his global patent waiver on vaccines.

In this week’s newsletter, Cyril Ramaphosa, always on the lookout for bounty, and never shy to grab a hand out, jumped on the  p

If You’re White, You’re Out! Lindiwe Sisulu Admits Refusing to Hire White Engineers in Place of Cubans Because They Are White!

Posted on Leave a comment

It seems ANC Ministers have taken their cue from fellow Socialist radicals in the West, as they are no longer shy to admit their anti-white racism. Lindiwe Sisulu, ANC’s minister of Water Affairs, has admitted that white suitably qualified and experienced water engineers have applied for the posts, to which she just imported and appointed 24 Cubans, but that she refused to appoint the white applicants on the basis of them being white. However, having signed the agreement with Cuba for 26 water engineers more than a year ago, (see statement below), she had a handy excuse, so why the racism?

Solidarity trade union has pointed out that she explicitly admitted to this is an interview with Radio 2000. Mr Theuns du Buisson of the Solidarity Research Institute (SRI) referred to Sisulu’s admission on Radio 2000, when SRI held a news conference on Friday, to introduce a research report on how the ANC is wasting Billions of Rands to import Cubans, to do South African jobs lik

ANC Government’s National Health Insurance Being Pushed Through for 2022

Posted on Leave a comment

The Council on Medical Schemes says the ANC government’s plan to start a National Health Insurance (NHI) is well underway, and the plan has already been advanced to implement phase 3 of the program next year.

The Medical Schemes Board says the 2021-2022 year’s development of the Plan is on track for Phase 3 which will include a mandated prepaid system of the new scheme, which will also include contracts from accredited private hospitals and specialist services. This means that the finalization and implementation of the National Health Insurance Act will then take effect.

The proposed bill was already adopted and approved by Cabinet in 2019 and presented to the parliamentary health committee. After that, it was apparently subjected to the public “consultation” process and scheduled to be debated in parliament, and then announced by the president of the country. It is proposed to be finalized in 2022.
