Traling: turned away at the lobby at Main Avenue
Traling publishes Main Avenue in Gauteng. Security turned the team away without confirming whether the company is a tenant.
What the team found
Traling publishes Main Avenue, Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa as its office. The address is in Gauteng. Nothing outside carried the company's name, and the building's security turned the team away at the lobby without confirming whether the company is a tenant.
Being refused at the desk is common in a managed building and is not evidence either way. It does mean nobody would confirm that Traling is there, and nothing visible from the street does either.
The checks
The checks that decided this outcome, from the visit checklist.

| Building match | Building matched |
| External signage | No relevant signage observed |
| Reception check | Denied |
| Floor or suite | Restricted |
What Gauteng looks like across the set
Gauteng accounts for 7 of the addresses the team has visited. Across the 6 other visits to the city, the team found nothing twice and could not get access 4 times.
The reports either side of this one in Gauteng are ACCUMARKETS, EPFX and GT247.com, and reading two or three together is usually more telling than any single visit.
Reading the checks together
In short, the building was the one the address names, there was no sign for the company outside and reception could not say either way. No single check settles an outcome on its own, which is why each one is listed above rather than folded into a verdict.
What this outcome means
Access restricted. Building or security restrictions prevented the researcher from completing the planned checks.
A field survey confirms only what was observed at the stated address and time. It does not verify regulatory status, client-money handling, trading conditions or financial strength. The photographs are the team's own, taken at the location on the day, and may be cropped for privacy. Read how surveys are conducted.
