ROODEPOORT HAD A FLOOD ON THURSDAY THE 28TH OF NOVEMBER 2013.
UNFORTUNATELY, OUR HOUSE WAS ONE OF THE HARDEST HIT ON THE STREET.
APPROXIMATELY 30M OF OUR PERIMETER WALL WAS WASHED AWAY. WE LIVE ALONGSIDE A VACANT FIELD AND RIVER, HENCE WE PHONED ADT AND REQUESTED A SECURITY GUARD TO STAND GUARD DURING THE NIGH FOR THE NEXT 3 NIGHTS WHILE WE DO EMERGENCY REPAIRS. THEIR RESONSE..."SORRY MAM, BUT IT IS TOO DANGEROUS FOR OUR SECURITY GUARDS TO BE STATIONED AT YOUR SITE UNTIL YOUR WALL ELECTRIC FENCE OUTSIDE LIGHTING IS REPAIRED. THE FIELD IS A HIGH RISK AREA, AND WE CANT TAKE THE CHANCE OF THE GUARD BEING ATTACKED". THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. WE PAY ADT EVERY MONTH TO PROVIDE A SECURITY SERVICE... AND WHEN WE REALLY NEED THEIR HELP, THIS IS THE NONSENSE THEY GIVE US. IT'S COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.
