CELL C - A PRISON HOUSE CELLPHONE CONTRACT

I would like to warn potential customers thinking of joining Cell C. Just this morning read a case of a customer having been billed for over R11000 for international roaming. My complaint is that Cell C has been harassing me for over 3 years. They claim I owe them for a month's outstanding premium because I did not cancel my contract timeously. Yet I sent them letters almost 4 times Six months before termination, 3 months, 2 months, 1 month before. I initially sent them all this proof. But the minute you do so, they switch to a different debt collector. And so they carry on. They have even blacklisted me. I had never missed a single premium for my 24 month contract. And this is the way they treat loyal customers. An utter disgrace. You cannot reason with them. DONT JOIN CELL C

Reviewer Update
I have just spoken to your customer services division. They were useless. She asked for proof. Fair enough. Only problem is the matter is over 2 years old and I could not find it. She then asked for email address. Clearly quite a stupid agent because if I could not find the email, how would I remember the email address. I told her it was the standard address to cancel. She insisted she needed proof. I told her surely there would be something on my file.

Anyway I have now found the letter. And now I will go to Wendy Knowler and every newspaper in the country willing to listen to me. Never again will I take a contract with Cell C. To think you are in the business of communication!!!!
