Comments on this Consulate-General
TO ALL OUT THERE WHEN YOU WHAT TO GO ON URGENT BUSSINESS TO FRANCE SORRY WILL NOT HAPPEN UNLESS YOU NOW 2 YEARS IN ADVANCE THESE PEOPLE IS NOT IN ANY HURRY FOR YOU
I phoned capago to apply for a business visa and asked them how long it will take. Iwas told 7 working days on the 26th of March i applied for it and today its seven days. Tommorow and monday is public holiday and I need it today cuase my flight is booked for monday night now when you phone CAPAGO they say now sorry 7 to 15 working days. AND EVERYTHING IS PAYED FOR. What now. PLEASE TELL ME WHO IS TO BLAME NOW AND WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP. For my company will be loosing this money. Is there no way for a emergency visa of such or so be it you can ever get a visa on time when you are in need to go to France on business urgently.
Why do you list your telephone numbers if you are unable to answer your phones. All what is happening is listening to machines and waisting peoples time.
Customer service themselves can't get through to your offices. My son needs to live today for France no one knows where his passport is. We are unable to call the Jan Smuts office. When go to the office the security blocks with an attitude not prepared to listen to you he sends you to that Sandton place. Those people when you phone them they do not know where the passport is.
I wonder if you ever read our comments. All we need to know what do we do if we want to know about our passports. If we could speak to someone. Please respect peoples feelings.
I am travelling to REUNION ON THE 27TH.it is the THURS 25TH NOV.urgently require my visa.cud it not be speedily expedited. WOULD APPRECIATE IT.THE URGENCY IS SUCH AS I STILL GOT TO PICK IT UP IN DURBAN,FROM POST NET AND THEY ARE CLOSED ON THE WEEKEND.
France.
To whom it concerns.
This letter would have reached you earlier but I did not have your e-mail. Now I hope this is the right one.
I also know that you came to Vanderbijlpark sometimes, but I am not informed and I would not have come anyway as hazard is there. She does not represent me. How come you always inform Ms. Brune? I was shocked to see a delegation from your office at the funeral of her husband and you did not come two weeks proceeding for Mr. Fideli. You might say that you do as you want, but you always represent and help the selected few. That is not tolerable in a democracy. To me it’s cronyism. I always got a small video on me.
I want to bring the following complaints to your attention as well as two propositions, one being to serve my country. Please note that I have written to the ambassador numerous times and to the consul.
What is the use of the csfe if ms s hazard does not represent and refuses to help you?
Warning, either society helps me soon or you are all going to regret things. Remember Jeremy Laughner. I am going to post certain thing on social websites. The time for exclusion is over.
Let me go back to October 2008. The vice counsel was here in Vanderbijlpark. I handed him a letter in his hand. Since that time he has not responded to me. I sent him an e-mail two weeks ago, but silence. That is Roberts. Just pure insolence, low education and insight. I am certainly not amused. I do not want to go through them again, so do not subject it. Bunch of clerks.
Furthermore I am not surprised because the south Africans are exactly the same. They tell you that they will do something, and then they never do it. Just useless conversation, as these two examples, the one below and the latter.
Then there is the case of sofie hazard of the chamber of commerce and your current French representative. She asked me in June 1999, how do I make a living? and she even took my cv. This chamber of commerce was to assist in finding jobs for French nationals in south Africa. It was set up with the French foreign ministry. This chamber is associated with more than 250 French firms. Why does and did she not assist me? Did she prejudged me as lazy, was there stereotyping, zenophobism or jealousy? That was unethical.
You might ask me if I applied here? Yes I did and numerous times that goes in the thousands.
In 2009, ten years after she and the French chamber of commerce did not find me a job. I rebuffed them and told them to go to hell for their zenophobism. Furthermore I got my revenge to her in 2009.
I would nevertheless like to work in the secret service. How do I apply? I am very fit. I am not a lazy giet. or
Is there a way I could get the dole? Of course I would also contribute to it in a profitable way. And if you think I would spend it on frivolities, like alcohol and drugs: I do neither of these. I would add to my collection of liqueurs and whiskies, etc.
Luckily I got investments in Nasau, Cayman Islands, and tax free havens. I also got investments in China in Brazil, Japan US and Australia. In 2008 my adviser called me with an early warning: to sell or keep? He one that is lost will always fined a path in the right direction.
If there is no answer and feedback from your offices I am going to go on social websites.
I hope that you will get back to me this time.
Sincerely,
Mark
