Complaint - Contract terminated with no notification 2nd Complaint

I am extremely disappointed with the service from Cell C today, I had logged a hellopeter on the 24th December 2020 and my query was resolved The agents were excellent with resolving my query, having my number reinstated immediately and a payment arrangement in place. I am now faced with the same situation. In 2020 a payment arrangement was in place and Priscilla from Collections handled my query ever since with no issues or concerns the best service ,considering my situation with having to close our business due to the pandemic . This morning I receive an sms that my contract has been terminated with no indication why, no one had bothered to contact me prior or inform me on the reason.The payment arrangement has been done as per the arrangement. I have not access to make or receive calls. I visited the Cellc branch in my area and was assisted by a friendly agent who contacted the call centre on my behalf and we were advised by the agent that due to me paying 5 days after my debit order date my contract has been cancelled. This is ridiculous, how can this be the case when I had already have a plan in place and no one has mentioned to me that this is a concern, I am unable to have my number reconnected although I have a plan in place or changed to a prepaid with my current number, I am utterly distraught as I have this number for the past 15 years+ and my number is the only contact with my livelihood. I would like for my number to be reinstated immediately alternatively provided with an option to keep my number on prepaid. I have little children and rely on my phone for day to day and emergencies. Please can my query be reviewed urgently.

Good Morning, It is 24 hrs that I do not have access to my cell number, and no feedback received from your Support team to have my query resolved urgently. My communication channels were with Priscila Tshepiso Tlhapi and Moses Mo***eng regarding my initial arrangement. Kind regards

Good Afternoon,

I was emailed by Daniella Paul on Friday @15.20 indicating that she was unable to reach me on the cell number provided. How is this possible when there were no calls received on this number ( husbands number). I had responded the email at 16.03 on Friday and again this morning at 09.58 , I have still not received any feedback. It is 5 days now that I do not have access to my phone and my query unresolved. Is this the service level that Cell C has ascribed to???????????

Good Morning, It has been a week since I lodged my query and concern and to date , I have not received a resolution to have my contract unsuspension y or to be migrated to a prepaid contract. I will have no alternative but to lodge this with the ombudsman should no solution be received by close of business today. Cellc's turnaround time with escalations is disappointing?
