COMPLAINT

Dear Sirs and Madam,

Once again I see that your accounts department is choosing to de***** and ****** monies by billing me incorrectly. I am giving Cell C accounts department until 15/010/2024 to fix the account or else I am going to appoint an attorney to deal with your accounts department. I will take pain and suffering for charges into account that your accounts department has caused me which has affected my credit score.

I have mentioned several times that my account Name is incorrect!!!! Fix it too!!!!

Cell C accounts department has chosen to incorrectly bill me. Kindly reverse charges that are not for my account and credit my account with immediate effect. I will not sign any debit orders with Cell C because you have shown me that you are unable to keep to a signed contract and still after several calls and visits to your Greenstone store informing you that the account is closed your accounts department still insist in debiting a closed account. Cell C accounts department has chosen to break my signed contract with themselves, I signed on 27/05/2023 for a monthly amount of R319 for 24months. Cell C broke that contract by overcharging me a monthly free of R339 instead of the original amount of R319.00. I reported this to the accounts department both telephonically and in writing and still the accounts department continues to incorrectly invoice me and now to top it off they are billing me for charges fail debit order when I have not signed a debit order on a closed account when I took the contract with Cell C Greenstone.

I pay my account monthly by last day of the month, when I get paid, and appears in Cell C account by the 5th - 7th of every month due to different banks. Yet cell c has reported me as not having paid my bill which I can prove that I’ve done so. Now sort my account with immediate effect. Please notified that I hold a copy of my signed contract with cell c taken out at Greenstone branch. Maria da Silva NB NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT MY REQUEST IM HANDING THIS TO ATTORNEYS AS WELL AS THE OMBURSTMAN AND CONSUMER COUNCIL

Reviewer Update
Dear Sirs / Madam Whoever is doing my account kindly have the account rectified immediately. Cell C is in breech of my contract and you are debiting charges for a debit order I didn’t sign and on an account that is closed. I have always made direct payments into Cell C bank account timeously. So have this rectified immediately as Cell C currently owes me the following amount: R 720.75. I have handed you over to attorneys and the consumer board for your conduct in managing my account is ********. | CELL C account no. | *** | | FIRST NAME: | Maria | SURNAME: | Ferreira da Silva | | | | | | |
