So the guy from the place called me back and told me that the cheque was ready (about four hours late). Quite impressive actually! so I arrange with a friend to go fetch the cheque (in case they change their mind), first thing on Friday morning. I called the man back and confirmed the address, as well as all the details, and he once again agreed.
Again, I am not surprised, he called me back at 9:30 to let me know that he had misspelled my name on the cheque and it was not ready to be collected at all. he had to redraw the cheque, and redo the whole signature process.
Never mind warm fuzzy ears, now there is black smoke and lightning billowing out of them.
And to top it all, as if I am not feeling bad enough about making such a STUPID mistake, they have levied me with a refund charge.
I take it back - the banks and institutions like the SABS TV License department are the only ones make any money around here.
It kinda makes me question why I am a good citizen and pay my license at all...
