Cell C sadly the worst of the worst

Last week on Thursday evening I went onto the Cell C website and purchased 1.2GB of data and paid through Instant EFT, my payment was successful but my DATA was NOT credited to my cell phone number, I phoned the customer care immediately and was told the payment was not showing and I must WAIT 24hrs before phoning them again. In the interim while having to WAIT which has NEVER EVER happened before, as the data has shown immediately, I contacted my bank, they said the payment had gone through and was out of my account, I then phoned PayFast Cell C's payment gateway service provider, they said my payment had gone through and was paid to Cell C. I then contacted Cell C 24hrs later and was told the payment was not showing on their side and I must now fax through a POP, which I did giving them my cellphone number BOLDLY in the subject line. I have phoned them on numerous occasions since then and still told to WAIT as it is now a QUERY and they will deal with it. Yesterday I phoned them again and some rude and arrogant customer care person began to rattle off how many times they had "TRIED" to phone me, I said this was NOT true as I was the one always phoning them, he then got more arrogant and rattled off my data ONLY number, I said this was the wrong number and the query DID NOT relate to this number and I asked them to sort it out immediately. I then got a call from Cell C but it was some person asking me if I want to UPGRADE, HOW SHOCKING!!! I have still not had an answer to my email after my POP or a telephone call to let me know where my data is, Cell C has my money and I have nothing in return. I have been with Cell C for nearly 20yrs and will now cancel all my contracts with them, their customer service is the worst I have ever had to deal with no-one knows there left from the right!! Goodbye and good riddence Cell C.

Reviewer Update
To bring to your attention once again!!, this issue has not been sorted out, I got a message on Saturday saying the issue was resolved and my data was loaded to my cell phone, I checked my balance and nothing was loaded, I was then told when I phoned your customer care that the data was loaded as night time data 1GIG, I DID NOT BUY night time data, I bought 1.2GIGs for R69, your website DOES NOT EVEN HAVE an option to buy 1.2GIGs of night time data, this is becoming absolutely ridiculous now.
THERE IS NO 1.2GIGs of night time data OR 1GIG of NIGHT TIME DATA options!!
I want my money back or my data, YOUR CHOICE!!!
