Cancellation request, paid services unusable after softlock

<p>My issues refer:</p> <p>170 ********** 52</p> <p>170 ********** 63</p> <p> </p> <p>Cell C mysteriously can't get hold of me, their subscriber, on their own network. Have tried speaking to retentions but get disconnected.</p> <p> </p> <p>Purchased data bundle and SMS bundle last month to avoid being left without comms once my account gets softlocked. low and behold I get softlocked and can't use my remaining 400MB data and 198 SMS.</p> <p> </p> <p>Please cancel my account with immediate effect and convert to prepaid. I have less than a month to go on my contract. Your contract is unusable. Refund me my 400MB data and 198SMS for last month and cancel all add on bundles (that I'll not be able to use this month once softcapped).</p>

I have rep****. Once again - CellC can't reach THEIR OWN CUSTOMER ON THEIR OWN NETWORK!

As requested via email - please set my account limit to R0 so there are no further costs on my next invoice.

To summarize:

1. I could not use my DATA BUNDLE (PAID FOR ON THE INVOICE) because I set a soft lock on my account to not incur uncontrolled costs

2. I could not use my SMS BUNDLE (PAID FOR ON THE INVOICE) because I set a soft lock on my account to not incur uncontrolled costs

3. Cell C will not refund me for the DATA I could not use

4. Cell C will not refund me for the SMS I could not use

5. Cell C will not carry over the 400MB unused DATA (PAID FOR) so I can use it this month

6. Cell C will not carry over the 198 unused SMS (PAID FOR) so I can use it this month

I will be sure to caution family, friends and colleagues to avoid Cell C like the plague.

Derick contacted me however he was of no assistance. Fact remains:

1. I could not use my DATA BUNDLE (PAID FOR ON THE INVOICE) because I set a soft lock on my account to not incur uncontrolled costs

2. I could not use my SMS BUNDLE (PAID FOR ON THE INVOICE) because I set a soft lock on my account to not incur uncontrolled costs

3. Cell C will not refund me for the DATA I could not use

4. Cell C will not refund me for the SMS I could not use

5. Cell C will not carry over the 400MB unused DATA (PAID FOR) so I can use it this month

6. Cell C will not carry over the 198 unused SMS (PAID FOR) so I can use it this month

Still getting unauthorised monthly deductions. Still no CPA compliant settlement quote detailing charges. Charged a full month for 4 days in the month my contract expired.

Still getting threatening calls from "Nudebt" about my account. Suggested they handover to legal and we sort this out in court.

Yet more phone calls from Nudebt. Still not paying a cent. CellC owe ME money for services not delivered. I have the CPA on my side. Stop phoning me and wasting everyone's time.
