I have a number available for the Lost City Challenge 103km, B group. If anyone is interested, please contact me on 082 379 0222. Cannot ride due to illness.

You must hammer them' date=' lean on them, bug them If you wait for them to follow p its gonna take a while. [/quote'] You only have a case if the bank sent an SMS explicitly stating that the funds are available, as opposed to a mere deposit made. The bank made me an offer to pay 50% of our loss. I accepted, because I feel that I am partly responsible. The sms the bank sent me did state that the funds are available, but I should have phoned before I released the goods.

Yes, did report it as stolen. Went to Police and explained situation. Constable Moloi said they first need the original cheque from the bank before he can open a case. Bank said they would mail it to me, and that could take weeks. Said he could do nothing for me. Luckily Captian Strydom heard my dillema and he said he'd help. Took my statement and opened a case of theft.

Also put in a claim at the bank as the bank misled me with the sms they sent me. Don't know if I will be successful. Won't know if you don't try. Still waiting for them to get back to me. Now I don't trust ANYBODY. Very expensive lesson learned.

My problem, I'm too trusting. Age old scheme. Advertized my car, guy calls and interested. Made the payment into my bank account on the Saturday morning, just before 11. Got the sms from the bank that the money was paid in and it's available. Released the car that afternoon. Monday afternoon get another sms from the bank, money reversed. Guy used a stolen cheque. Result: car gone, bank balance minus R32000.00. Always thought that this would never happen to me, but these people are good. They know exactly how to treat you and soften you up. Still mad with myself that I got caught like this.

Count yourselve lucky. I lost R32000 in a con about 2 weeks ago!

Oops, seems the number I got for Colin is "not available on the MTN network". Anybody else who can provide me with his correct cell or office number. Would really appreciate it.

That's the other option.

Used info@championchip, no joy. Would love to tell, but first want to try another option. If no desired results, then I'll tell.

No, nothing! I have been struggling with them from June 2008. The person that I dealt with has a very snotty attitude. Maybe I must post my problem on the Hub. Everybody always raves about CC's good service. Well, I don't think so!

Can anybody please assist me with an e-mail address of anyone from ChampionChip. Preferably not the same details as available on their website.

Think this is a great idea. Have a few offenders that I would like to add....

If the cyclists moved out of the way the first time they were asked to, all this hype would not have been necessary. To say that they could not have known that the hooting was for them, is just plain stupid, because they should have known that it is against the law to ride 2 abreast. Our group also get hooted at but never have anyone given the finger, or verbal abuse, to motorists. We just try and move out of the way as far as possible. Motorists hate cyclists, just speak to a non-cycling motorist and you will come to the same conclusion. But that's just my 2c.

"Mogatla se regsverteenwoordiger het ter versagting van vonnis aangevoer die beskuldigde kom uit ?n ?voorheen benadeelde gemeenskap?, het slegs st. 5 (gr. 7) agter sy naam en is ongeskoold." What does that have to the with the fact that he killed another human being?
