NON-EXISTENT SUPPORT PARTNERS

This is the most frustrating company I have had the misfortune of dealing with next to Microsoft!! I have been a client for over 16 years when 1-Grid was Web Africa. Their customer service has steadily deteriorated and now seems non-existent. To add to the frustration, it is impossible to have a telephonic discussion and/or to receve a call-back. I have tried calling on more than 10 occassions and been placed on hold indefinitely listening to the recorded music and message repeatedly telling me that I am either number 3 or number 1 in the queue. I eventually called and keyed in 1 which is for the billing department. The call was promptly answered by a Tamryn who placed me back on hold after I told her that I wanted to lodge a complaint against their support team and requesting to speak to a customer servicer manager. I held on for 9 minutes before a recording atating "There are no available agents in the queue at the moment." and the call was dropped! I logged an online support query on their platform on Monday and followed up 3 times today. I have yet to receive a response. The support ticket number provided is #*** with caption: PLEASE HELP.

Thank you for responding to the HelloPeter complaint. I have noted your statement that this matter has been escalated to a Senior Support Team member. It will make sense if the team member would return my call urgently to ensure that we are on the same page. As it stands and judging from my past experience with 1-Grid, there is clearly hugh mis-communications or misunderstandings between your team and me. How difficult is it for a team member to just call me? or to answer my call? or to return my call? or to respond to my call-back request?

One of my queries pertains to spam messages that are being sent to me from my own email address! I brought this matter to your support team's attention and all I received was an email response referring me to the information on your Help Centre! This is a very urgent matter which isalso scary as there is clearly a security breach which could be disasterous for my clients and for my business! I am really at the end of my tether!
