The manager is extremely rude! We wanted info regarding a car and when we asked him,he laughed in our faces. Ive heard a lot of other people also complaining about this situation.The ladies in front and the 2 at registration are very nice and helpful
Waiting for vehicle docs for almost 3 weeks after numerous requests. Im most cases the photos of damages is taken so bad. They also dont disclose wot is wrong with their vehicles. A defect list will go a long way for ppl to make an informed decision. Not easy to get hold of ppl at branches.
Its all about patience. Good overall. Some cars are overpricedJust still waiting on tow company which is, to my understanding, not part of them.
Very helpful staff except for the yard guys, not the manager hes a great guy
SMD admin (invoicing ) staff was very helpful only finance department gave me wrong information on call many times I phoned finance department to inquire about payment they said your payment come through you can collect your vehicle, when myself went to fetch vehicle there was R30 short payment then I had to make another payment and wait till next morning to collect the vehicle, good advice to SMD train your finance department properly that will help for your business and reviews...
We are regular clients and had to fetch 2 vehicles today but the guard stopped us at the entrance and said we were not allowed to go inside with our vehicle?For what exact reason can’t we park our vehicle inside the parking bay on the premises that is empty @ 8am.As a woman I don’t feel safe having to park outside. You have a sign in stop at the second gate and a parking bay in front of your offices ?If the parking bay is full then you tell people to wait. Another issue is that certain people obviously get preference??? A red car just pulled in, no questions! This type of business management speaks for itself - incompetence and pathetic service delivery !!!
Very friendly and helpfull staff, but management need to look at speeding up process when clients collect their vehicles. Its ridiculous to spend 3hrs just to collect 1 vehicle.
Always friendly, Covid protocols in place.
I like their service it was quick
Terrible security service, the guards will make you seat outside the gate for a very long time without any updates on when you could be let in.Terrible documentation verification system especially for foreigners, they are not adhering to the national lock down regulation as published by the Department of Home Affairs relating to permit extensions, and this information is not updated on their website so to inform those concerned.
How can 1 waste spend R200 airtime 😫 for just inquiries without even successfully received the the answers only got diverted to other department which doesnt even bother to pick up the calls in this pandemic time
Great place for buying slightly damaged cars and motorbikes
Not bad
Still waiting to get in to retrieve items from my car
Great place to buy a good model car for less . Plus repairs
A useless Aution ever I bought a vehicle in March the vehicle had a police mark and they didnt bother to do the clearance or to check if the clearance was done they just auction the vehicle now I return the registration document for them to do the clearance its been a month no update no what trying to phone them they tell stories after stories
Great service thank you
Nice place
The Web says 8am, the security says that theres no staff on duty and the phone just confirms it. More than 10 times calling from 8am no one picks up.
Thank you to the receptionist Bridgette for her great service.
The place need to improve on training their staff
Great customer service
Good service 1 best security guy
Its a chilled place where you can get a affordable car
Would be great if car dealers are only allowed to buy for a certain number, they buy all the cars
Not a nice placeStaff are horrible and not helpful at all
Their vehicles are very good and friendly staff......one of the best auctions
The lady at reception was helpful. Pleasant overall experience.
Best way to buy your own secondhand car. Good car to shop for. Friendly staff and always there to assist you
Wonderful people, they make feel at home. love it
The service was poor. I came to fetch something from my car and I was told that they could not find the keys. I waited for over and hour and they still couldnt find it. I was sent from one person to another to another and they still couldnt find it. They are unorganized and they have Poor Service.
Good service
Worse service I ever received. Took me 3hours to fetch 2 cars from them. They helped who ever they want no matter if you were first in queue. Only 1 hyster to help all the customers..
Look its fine. Its an auction place where sad broken motor cars are sold to the highest bidder. Star rating is irrelevant.
A place for cheap affordable code 2 ,4and 3 vehicles .Wonderful service and support throughout.Cars are available both online and from branch auctions.Nestled in Blackhealth ,it can be accessed by both rail or road.
Bought a vehicle from them in March 2019, very satisfied.
Did experience for the first time in my life and very much good bargains and more than one can see in person
Quick and helpful.
They need to learn how to manage online documents.
Very backwards company that feels unprofessionally led. Poor communication skills with their customers, with a lazy slow workforce to add on top of that.Waited over 3 hours to receive one vehicle.Stay far away from this place.
I would appreciate it, if they could answer their land line and improve network signal on their warehouse.
I always buy at this auction. Excellent service. Will be back again.
Going a tough time with SMD. messing with my work. They do things on their own time.
I was never here. This jumped on my review list because i pass the place often.
Good bargains. Fast friendly and efficient staff
Flew all the way to CT to look at a car on auction. Was two days before the auction. They refused for me to look at the car.
Best smd branch
Under the comment on the website they dont add cars was repaired previously like the other smd branches, Capetown branchos a lie and corrupt I advice any buyer to not buy or phone and ask before you buy free advice....
Rude security
Good place to pick up really good deals on cars
Best place to buy@ affordable price
Great friendly service. What a pleasure to view my car.
Buy it, fix it, sell it... Repeat!Something for everyone...
Great
Service is pathetic waiting long to get your car out from the back of there yard
Good service both on online too easy to work on
Its easy to get there
I Only see the cars with no prizes please help me how to review the cars with prizes
Is very bad 2 hours on queue.
Thank you so much Sonja, she was very helpful unlike their useless call centre. My next purchase at smd, I will only ask for Sonja.
Horrible customer service.
You can find cheap cars of different types
This is a good place to buy a car
Were buying sellin and fixing is done for ur car
Very poor service and bunch of lies .and they keep transferring you from one person to the other not going back there again and it would be nice if they stop selling cars without proper documents
New system has things happening very slowly
Good service and friendly
I like smd for the amazing deal
Good bargains at time.
SMD CAPETOWN BRANCH BE OWNS WITH THE BUYRS STOP LIE
Well good sport to buy salvage cars
A good choice for buying a car
Nice second hand cars
In blackheath need to check cars justice
Disappointed, because I dont get a neighborhood advantage.
Quick service
I buy cars at this auction
Waiting for collection process to slow
I think you must really do your homework on the price of the car you are buying. Sometimes the buyers go into a frenzy and pay too much for these cars. There are bargins. But keep a level head.
For accident and damage vehicle auctions. Cheap deals
Excellent
Helpful
Access not as easy as it used to be.
Sell good cars
Very good
This is the real smd location
I like this place
Pretty good
Friendly security guards
Full and mixed up
Good service
Big and better
