Tarps for Africa is a scam
We paid them for pool cover on the 27th March 2025 and todate they’ve cut all communication
No response to texts and emails and ignoring our calls
I’m sad to see reviews from late last year on this forum but the business still being listed
I guess this means the association does not take such complaints lightly even when the company operates under while clearly displaying their logo (NSPI)

I paid for a pool cover in January, and they also stopped responding a few weeks ago. I am planning on opening a fraud case against them and reporting them to the Consumer Protection Act. I have also contacted NSPI directly, and they were very concerned when I mentioned a company accredited by them is scamming people. You can also maybe contact them directly, and hopefully, they can take action against this company.

We paid in February, same issue here – NSPI managed to get hold of Mark Read who basically said the company has gone under and there is nothing he can do. From NSPI’s point of view, they cannot assist any further regarding the funds already paid, all they can do going forward is cut ties with Tarps for Africa.

Good morning, I will like to leave my review regarding TFA we’ve paid them the full amount for them to put a net on our pool it’s been a while now they don’t call you to let you know what is happening and when you try to follow through with them they don’t respond I’ve tried calling and sending WhatsApp with no lucky, they don’t even reply to my messages last massage I got from them he said he will check with the installer till today. We’ve made a payment on 24/01/2024 12:54 last communication with the guy was 08/02/2024 and today is the 15/02/2024. Please assist
