Cell C Needs Some POPIA Guidance

Thanks for:

1. Cold calling me without my permission 2. Refusing to tell me where you got my details from 3. Continuing to try and sell me something, even though I am not interested 4. Hanging up on me when I ask to be removed from the database

Lovely how POPIA works so well. (if you want to call me about this complaint, you already have purchased my number so it's on a database somewhere...)
