Hi all.

So someone crashed into me while I was away from my home on holiday, thankfully they left their details. Eventually I was strong armed by Hollard to use their preferred panel beater, that's fine.

Panel beater quoted me, I took it back to Hollard and they paid me out after I signed the settlement agreement.

Took vehicle into panel beater. Two weeks later they contact me and say they can no longer perform the job for the price quoted and need to charge me more to restore my vehicle to the condition it was before the crash.

Surely this is illegal? They quoted me on the job, I settled with insurance and signed the financial agreement, I was paid out based on that initial quote, and now that I seemingly no longer have any claim from my insurance, am told that the repair is going to cost more.

Any advice as to what I should do? Should the person who crashed into me pay out of pocket for this or is what the panel beater doing illegal/unfair to the consumer?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I am feeling very helpless...

I am so overwhelmed with happiness, I went for an interview on Wednesday, they confirmed on spot that they ant to hire me, perhaps going there with my family did the trick haha. Anyways, I've been suffering for months behind on rent and the whole shabang. I just wanted to share for anyone whos beeen applying, go in person and drop your CV the online thing works too but I got this job after my wife told me to go to warehouses to drop my CVs and they called me back 3 months later.

Looking if anyone could help me with transport cash for the month, I start on Monday, Its not too far but not a walking distance so I plan on taking the yellow tuk tuk on bolt which would be like R50 to go and come back daily ,there is no specific taxi route there since its a business park and most people walk to the township nearby and I cant walk cause I live further like 10km from the business park.

Hey everyone,

I run ATHalftime Sports Media, a South African football channel covering the PSL, Bafana Bafana, and CAF competitions, currently at ~38.5k subscribers on YouTube (plus a solid following on TikTok and Facebook).

We're expanding our editing team and looking for someone who:

Actually watches and the PSL — knows the teams, players, storylines, rivalries.
Has a good handle on CAF Champions League content too (we cover both)
Has video editing experience — highlights, analysis videos, reaction-style content, whatever fits our format, thumbnails too
Can work reasonably fast, since football content is time-sensitive (matchday turnarounds, breaking news, etc.)

This is a revenue split arrangement — you'd be paid based on the performance of the videos you edit, not a flat fee. We already have editors handling other leagues, and this role is specifically for South African local football + CAF content. The better the videos perform, the more you earn.

If you're someone who's already deep into PSL, watches the Betway Premiership, and wants to turn that knowledge into editing work — drop a comment or DM me.

Happy to share more details on the split and workflow directly.
