HEADLINE Contract cancellation - what's taking so long???
THE INCIDENT
Thu 27 Aug

20 Aug - I made full & final payment to settle my handset & migrate my contract to prepaid. Emmaleen in Virgin's billing department also said that I would have to pay an additional amount for the September invoice that has already been generated. I also paid this & faxed confrimation.

Emmaleen sent me an e-mail to confirm that she had received these payments & she would forward them for allocation onto my account.

24 Aug- I called the contact centre & asked to have my account migrated to prepaid & the agent said that this will be done in 24 - 48 hours (Ref 2433247).

It is now 3 days later & my account has STILL not been migrated. I have NOW been told by Cole that this will only be done at the end of the month in a batch 'with the rest of the migrations'.

It's unacceptable that I keep hearing different stories & that I cannot speak to anyone of authority to rectify this & ensure that my debit order is cancelled. I do not want to continue paying for a serivce that I have cancelled.

PLEASE can you look into this issue for me as soon as possible - & I would also like written confirmation that my account is settled and my debit orders have been cancelled.

Thank you.

Indifferent: VMSA left a voice mail on my phone that the migration has happened but I'm not holding my breath. I'll only know for sure when I port to Vodacom in the next few weeks.
