Cell C drops the ball

I have been attempting to cancel a sim only data card which according to my latest statement the contract term has come to an end I keep getting told that the contract has been renewed and I need to pay a cancelation fee This is ***** as I never consented to a renewal of the contract or received any written notification plus when they reply there is never any proof attached with a renewal

The outcome of this matter
Cell C insists that I agreed to a upgrade but I never received any confirmation email which I would have immediately queried So now I sit with a contract I did not want till 2025 or pay a penalty to cancel
Well once my contracts are up I will no longer be a Cell C customer
Nor wil I recommend them to anyone after this

They have retrieved the recordings and insist on saying I said yes to the upgrade. I am obtaining legal advice to see if a contact can be upgraded on basis of what was supposedly said on a voice recording but no written confirmation being sent of the new contract and subscriptions

No I did not as the person that contacted me said that I can request to listen to the call but basically the outcome will remain. I still maintain whatever the call supposedly said why there is no written confirmation. Only written email confirmation received was for the one of the contracts that I requested an upgrade on

But rest assured now that the manner in which I am just going around in circles now and the way you handle this
When all my contracts are due they will definitely not be renewed with Cell C

You can listen to the voice recoding at your nearest Cell C store but you will not receive a copy of it.

Okay so I can't get a copy of the voice recording seems ***** to me
Plus you say I can listen to it at nearest Cell C store which happens to be over 200km away
So it seems that Cell C dies not care about customers
