Harrasment from ABSA Rewards

Got another call less than 30 minutes after sending this email: As you can see from the attached screenshots, I have checked out ABSA rewards on your website. ****** ****** This product also costs a monthly rate, which was my main objection to it. In the past I have politely told your sales people that I'm not interested and that I would CONTACT YOU if I changed my mind. Then just a few weeks or a month or two later I get another phone call. I then stared telling them up front that I'm not interested. At some point I missed a call and received a SMS on which I could respond to whether I wanted you to call me back or whether I wasn't interested. I selected NOT INTERESTED! I SAVED YOUR NUMBER AND STARTED IGNORING OR REJECTING YOUR CALL. Then your could just call again and again and again. At I time when I just got out of hospital. I picked up the hone once and said (maybe shouted): Go away ABSA Rewards! Yet I you keep calling me. I have 7 missed calls from you on Thursday7 August 2019.

REMOVE ME FROM ALL ABSA REWARDS /OTHER PRODUCT SALES CONTACT LISTS. STOP HARASSING ME! Do not call me from another number. Please take note that I may might share this on social media.

Got this response. Followed by a case closed notification.
"Thank you for your e-mail.
We cannot assist with your request via e-mail.
You can cancel your Absa Rewards by contacting our call centre ."

My the reply: I DON'T HAVE ABSA REWARDS. I JUST WANT YOU TO STOP THE SALES CALLS.

So what now am I going to have to phone you and waste my airtime. How do I know if I see your number it's customer care and not someone TRYING TO SELL ABSA REWARDS TO ME AGAIN?

JUST TAKE MY NUMBER OFF YOUR CONTACT LISTS.
