Cell C determined to take money

<p>Just spoke to cell c again, they are insisting on debiting our account despite us having cancelled our account in October. We were **** to when they said our account was cancelled. We were not given any reference number at the time, due to us not being able to produce a reference number, they refuse to believe that we requested cancellation, which is tantamount to accusing us of lying. Later when we logged a complaint, we were given a reference number which turned out to be ****, since there is no record of it. We are unable to get any recordings of the calls we've made to cell c. Since we continued to receive benefits on the contract as it was not cancelled when requested we are being charged. In our dealings with cell c, we cannot help but come to the conclusion that their incompetance gives them an excuse to continue taking money that they are not entitled to. In addition, since they have threatened us with legal action, it seems like ******ion. Their operators have been dishonest in their dealings with us, their service has been terrible, and since they have just debited my account, I feel that I have been ******. It will be interesting to see if they respond with anything other than the **** generic apology that most of the reveiws we've read have received.</p>

Thank you for posting to us.

Maropeng has investigated this matter and contacted you with the outcome feedback. He advised the following:

  • There is no confirmation regarding the cancellation request you did at the store and that is why you received your monthly benefits as per normal which you used. However, there is confirmation as per our call recordings, when you called through to our retentions department during January 2017.
  • The amounts that will be debited are the charges for December 2016 and January 2017 which you have reversed. These charges are for the benefits which you have utilized during December and January.
  • You advised Maropeng to authorize the debit order for the charges.

Regards
