I’ve been unable to get my passport it seems I am also blocked from the email because I cannot contact them anymore via email and every time I call I’m taking around in hoops, without any conclusion, I want my money back this is a crime to Steal money from people and not for fill your promises and obligations I am a student and it’s harder ready for me to be here in a foreign country and have my own countries government still and put me in an uncomfortable situation. I have been pleading for the past nine months with this institution to give me a refund if they cannot fulfill the obligations, but I have falling on deaf ears, and I am in raged and want my money back.

I have called the phone number on this website numerous times. It does not even give a ringtone. What is the number that I can call to talk to someone? I have also emailed, but no response. How can South Africans get anything done with service like this?
