Pick 'n Pay
Dont care for pensioners

I have a 65 year old mother staying in Ruyterwacht that is a poor community and 90% of pensioners staying there have to walk where they want to be. My mother is one of them that has to walk all the way to Pick and Pay on pension day to collect her pension money. Pick and Pay is about 2km away from where she stays and when she gets to the store they dont have any money available to pay out to them. That then means that they have to walk another km to the nearest shoprite that sits opposite Vasco train station to withdraw their pension money from the tillpoint at shoprite. I for one, cannot understand that a big retail store like Pick an Pay dont have money available for the elders to withdraw on pension days, surely they must have an agreement with SASSA to accomodate the elders and them not having money available to pensioners is nothing short of PATHETIC!! This has been a reoccuring incident for the past 2-3 months. They should feel ashamed of the way they treat the elders. My mother is able bodied but also gets drained of walking in the heat for such far stretches what about the ones that are struggling to walk and the possibility of being robbed is also a huge concern to me
