SSS reiterates the importance of extensive vetting and comprehensive research before committing to any financial transaction.
Thorough vetting before paying for services is crucial as it helps mitigate risks, ensures transparency, and establishes a foundation for a successful and satisfactory transaction.
Our client paid Trevor Botha an 80% deposit for the installation of a fence.
Notwithstanding several requests for the installation of the fence or a refund of the R31,200.00 deposit paid Botha, has not been cooperative.
CASE DETAILS:
Name and Surname: TREVOR BOTHA
Date of Birth: 1969-05-15
Business Name: TB CONSTRUCTION AND FENCING
Business Address:
33 EDGAR STREET
BOKSBURG
And:
195 FOURTH AVENUE
EDENVALE
Case opened in Johannesburg: SAPS BRIXTON CAS 267/03/2024
COURSE OF EVENTS:
Our client requested a quotation for a galvanised clear-view steel fence and its installation from Trevor Botha of TB Construction
On 8 June 2023, our client received and accepted the quotation.
They were asked to pay 80% of the total amount quoted as a deposit, which came to R31,200.00 out of a total of R39,000.00.
Later, someone claiming to be an employee of Trevor Botha came to install the fence, but it was not the material our client had paid for.
Consequently, our client dismissed the worker.
After that, our client tried to get in touch with Mr Botha numerous times, from 19 June 2023 to 18 November 2023, in an effort to either have the fence they had ordered installed or to get their deposit refunded.
QUOTATION FROM TREVOR BOTHA:
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH PAYING A DEPOSIT:
Risk of Non-Performance:
There is always a risk that the service provider may fail to deliver as promised, despite receiving a deposit.
In such cases, customers may face challenges recovering their money, particularly if the provider goes out of business or refuses to refund the deposit.
Financial Burden:
Paying a deposit upfront can represent a financial burden for some individuals, especially if the amount is substantial or if there are uncertainties about the quality or timeliness of the services to be provided.
Consumer Protection:
Customers should be cautious about paying deposits to unfamiliar or unverified providers, as there is a risk of fraud or scams.
It is essential to conduct due diligence, research the reputation of the provider, and clarify the terms and conditions of the deposit agreement to protect oneself.
Ultimately, whether to pay a deposit before services have been rendered should be decided after careful consideration of the specific circumstances, risks, and preferences of the parties involved. Open communication, clear agreements, and a mutual understanding of expectations can help ensure a fair and satisfactory outcome for the service provider and the customer.
By exercising caution and attention to detail during the vetting process, individuals can significantly reduce the likelihood of encountering issues, ensure a transparent transaction, and ultimately make informed decisions that align with their expectations and requirements.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: All potential clients need to be aware that owing to the nature of our work as specialist investigators there are people who have been caught on the wrong side of the law - who are trying to discredit me - Mike Bolhuis and my organisation Specialised Security Services - to get themselves off the hook. This retaliation happens on social media and creates doubt about our integrity and ability. Doubt created on social media platforms is both unwarranted and untrue. We strongly recommend that you make up your minds concerning me and our organisation only after considering all the factual information - to the exclusion of hearsay and assumptions. Furthermore, you are welcome to address your concerns directly with me should you still be unsatisfied with your conclusions. While the internet provides a lot of valuable information, it is also a platform that distributes a lot of false information. The distribution of false information, fake news, slander and hate speech constitutes a crime that can be prosecuted by law. Your own research discretion and discernment are imperative when choosing what and what not to believe.
STANDARD RULES APPLY: Upon appointment, we require a formal mandate with detailed instructions. Please take note that should you not make use of our services – you may not under any circumstance use my name or the name of my organisation as a means to achieve whatever end.
