Cell C Terrible Customer service, and bad customer satisfaction

I have never been so disgusted with the level of service I received at Cell C. First I went to the Mall of Africa branch to get a replacement phone for an iPhone XR as I was instructed by the Cell C repairs department. All the staff there was so rude, and the most disturbing thing is that it was all males. First, they told me that there are no iPhones at any of their stores without even bothering to check for me after I insisted that they contact the repairs department themselves which was not helpful either, I was deliberately made to sit at that store until they knocked off just waiting for the Region manager to give feedback if whether or not she can get this iPhone for me. The customer care call center is just as worse, one agent will tell you that they do have iPhones, and the other one will say they don't. When you finally get to the cancellations department, because I feel my only option is to cancel my contract at this point since I am paying for a phone I do not have, and I will not settle for anything less than an iPhone XR, the agent will ask you to hold, and then they drop the call without assisting you. It has been 6 days now without getting a resolution. The staff at the Mall of Africa, Patwin, and Musa, and all the others are still very unhelpful, and the Regional manager Millicent Mnisi does not seem to know how to treat a customer as well, because till this very day I don't get feedback from them. I am the one who has to call the store only to be told that Millicent is still checking. I think at this stage she should be communicating directly with me in order to resolve this. I am a very helpless customer right now. I don't miss any payments to Cell C, but it is clear that being a loyal customer to them means absolutely nothing.

Reviewer Update
I still have not been contacted by anyone from Cell C until this very day. I called the Mall of Africa branch my self on Wednesday the 03rd of June, and the agent (Patwin) was still very rude, and insincere towards me. I simply asked him for feedback, and he responded with so much attitude asking me why do I want feedback from him, because someone from Hello Peter already contacted him, which means they should have contacted me as well. The interesting part is that his feedback was that I will be getting an iPhone X, I must come, and collect it on Friday (Today), he was not even interested if I wanted that phone or not. First of all, an iPhone X is below iPhone XR which means that the value is not even the same. I cannot be paying so much money for a phone that is not worth the same value. He did not even offer me a discount or anything. I am very disappointed with this level of service. I do not understand why am I expected to settle for something that is not of the same value, and top of that I am not being given any options.
