After being unfairly dismissed from my previous employer, I approached Scorpion Legal for assistance who advised me to report the matter to the CCMA, as this was infact a unlawful dismissal. My "appointed legal representative" assisted me to complete all relevant documentation in order to register the matter with the CCMA after which I felt comfortable to leave the matter in their capable hands on his request which was a BIG mistake. I had attempted to follow the matter up with them as I never received any feedback from Scorpion and had left messages for almost everybody to call me back, which included the Complaints Department Manager to Maintenance and Cleaning Services, with NO response. I was failry shocked to learn that my documents were NEVER submitted by the Scorpion Representative and only after I had physically driven through to their offices in Roodepoort, was my documents submitted, but the matter thrown out at the CCMA, for being submitted to late. The fact that I pay for a service with Scorpion which I can not access or reap the benefits from is shocking...they are supposed to be the party that stands up for us, the common man when we are mistreated and taken advantage off...The manner in which I was treated by Scorpion makes me wonder if the are not the ones that we need protection from? Should someone from Scorpion grow a pair...they can contact me on: [protected].
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I had break in October 2012 and I reported the matter and send all the required documents, I never hear anything from that lawyer until December 2013. I was told that the person who was handling the matter is no longer working there, and the person who called me told me that he read the contract that I sent and he can sue the landlord for my lost. He never call me again to give me feedback on what's going on, every time I call he said his still waiting for the respond from the landlord side, until 2014 March I was told that the matter was referred to the Specialist and they told me that the caretaker that was on duty when the break in took place is not answering the phone when they call him so they cant do nothing and the case was closed. I feel so bad after being with scorpion for so many years and referring so many people to join, now this is the service I'm getting. Waiting 2 years only to find out that I cant be helped.
On the 21st of January 2016 I reported a civil case against a gardening company to scorpion and I never got any assistance. This company was spraying poison to kill grass in my yard but it never worked and i have paid them money. As a client I was hoping scorpion will assist me in getting a refund but they kept on saying someone will call me in an hour. Is this the kind of service we are paying for? Poor service delivery. I really am pissed of with scorpion and am thinking of changing legal teams. I have been with this company for years and now no legal assistance is being rendered. Poor service delivery nf nonsense legal team. An cancelling my membership. If anyone from scorpion eish to contact me [protected].
I also suffered the same, I had joined Scorpion in 2003 and since I have been with them they never actually assist me with all my complaints, In 2012 I also laid a complaint for an injury on duty and always different people calls me and they always give promise to call me later but they closed my complaint 3 times and always they ask me to email documents but no help, difficult to arrange an attorney for me, this year I also laid civil complaint about my property and my wife laid complaint for claim at RAF but hey Is still difficult for them to give us an attorney wish.please anyone knows where to reports this scorpion scam please call me [protected]

Dear Mr Rajoo and Mrs Naidoo,
I have waited long enough for this matter to be resolved, my wife is putting pressure on me and i can lose my family for your delays,
we have decided to report this matter to SAPS and get and external legal representation.
My trust has faded.
its been 4 months now and nothing is happening. All i do is keep on sending document to scorpion. I sent documents 3 times to Mr Rajoo if im not mistaken and the 4th time
i sent to Mrs Naidoo, It seems as if you selling products that are not on the shelves.
Please do contact me if things changes. But im following my wife's advice
im reporting this matter to the police, i will also get an external legal representation. What i fail to understand is why scorpion gave this case to
Legal representation who are based in Durban while this matter has occurred in Johannesburg.
To me that shows the incompetency of people who are allocating clients cases. I have read on scorpion complaints page and there are people to had
the same treatment as mine.
Im sure i have learnt a lesson, you must practice what you preach.
Im very disappointed in scorpion legal.
so painful that they debit money every month for nothing.
My Mother was unfairly dissmissed on July 2017 after she fell on a sep ledder whilst on duty.She worked as a domestic worker around benoni.We reported the matter to scorpion legal protection but no help was given.Its now alomost five months since my om got fired and she is still unemployed.She has been with scorpion almost all my live i grew up knowing we are covered by scorpion but now that she needs help, scorpion does non.ALL that we been told is that we will receive an sms regarding our case.They sometimes put her hopes up by calling her to their offices but when she gets there shes told it has been prosponed maybe this happened about 3 times now. SO MY QUESTION TO YOU SCORPION IS WHY ARE YOU TAKING PEOPLES MONEY WHEN YOU FAIL TO PROTECT THEM?WHY MAKE PROMISES THAT YOU CAN'T KEEP?IS IT BECAUSE YOUR NOT WHO YOU SAY YOU ARE?IS IT BECAUSE YOU ARE SCARED OF THESE PEOPLE AND THEIR LAWYERS?please these are the questions we need answers from.{[protected]}PLEASE CALL ME
These type of companies offer the service because they think they can get repeat business income on a monthly basis, ie: money for jam. Their hope is that clients do not have any cases, or at most, very few simple cases. The problem is that when clients are paying for a service, they will maximise the use of that service and the legal company becomes inundated with work and thus they prioritise the highest paying cases first. That's why most of the complaints are about bad service where things do not get done, transferred, delayed or ignored, unless a client is ensuring they do their job.
The best is to see a private attorney that can give personal assistant. Your monthly fee should rather be invested in a unit trust that can be used when a real problem case arises. You will actually save money that way. Feel sorry for the poor though, the business world is not geared up for them
Dear Mr Rob Smith
SCORPION LEGAL PROTECTION, CLIENTEL LEGAL AND NEDBANK FAIL TO DEFEND ME BUT RATHER COLLUDE IN IMMORAL ACTIONS AGAINST ME IN CONSPIRACY WITH SA POLICE SERVICE NATIONAL COMMISSIONER GEN KEHLA SITHOLE, DEPARTMETN OF HEALTH, HEALTH PROFESSIONS COUNCIL OF SA etc
I have signed the special power of attorney and have re-supplied you in bona fide with all the information. My incident is similar to Nesnaidoo I choose not to pour my heart at this platform. Will you ever come back to me with tangible response without supporting an injury to one is an injury to all of wrong motives?.
As you know: I was never mentally insane as I am labelled permanent ill paranoid personality disorder and paranoid schizophrenia just because my employer defraud my fixed term employment benefit to which authorities and others delay deliberate so that the term ends to saving their office swears.
In several attempt of wanting to erase/delete this case I am trapped to death by people that I thought were my real friends but The Almighy Lord Jesus Christ, Father, Son And The Holy Spirit Always Triumph. The most resent trap for planned death was set against me last Friday 01 February 2019 by Dr Beyers Naudè Local Municipality leaders that tried to "cheap trick" trap me in poor information to go to Jeffreys Bay where I must take part in amending a National Credit Bill. How could I? whilst I am not even a sworn in politician? I am only a Ward Committee Member that represent Education and Tourism in Ward 6 hence I submit how can I be part of such amendment which has no paper work?
None of you respond to me objectively and truthfully. I now read, I am not the only casulty.
