Fish Franchisor Fingered

Sowetan:

Old Fashioned Fish and Chips continues to fleece franchisees even though the Consumer Protection Act protects them against unfair business practices.

Most consumers who have approached Sowetan for help since last year say they cancelled their franchise contracts because this franchisor was in breach of contract and refused to refund their deposits.

Some were refunded after Sowetan intervened, but others have not been refunded even after they approached the National Consumer Commissioner.

Mandla Mahlangu and his three partners are the latest consumers who claim that they have been battling to recover their R100,000 deposit from Old Fashioned Fish and Chips since November last year.
