Day Light *******

I asked Cell C to cancel my contract at the end of 24 months as per agreement and I was told that it will be cancelled in mid November 2019.

I used some of the data but did not use all of it and I was surprised that I got charged a full amount when my sim was offline from mid November as they said they would. I enquired about the amount and I got a call from the lady who assisted me and I have to say she very helpful and good customer service she highlighted that I will receive a statement from Cell C and indeed I did.

I sent a query again regarding the statement as it was not making sense to me since I never use the full data for November and I was charged a full amount so I want my cut back from the full amount. I got a call from one of the consultant and I explained to her what my issue is then she tells me that I have to pay them instead of which I disagree with.

As I was trying to explain to her she hung up. So she did not want to assist me.

Hi Eric 

Referring to the subscriber agreement terms and conditions;  on cancellation of your contract for any reason, any unused Inclusive benefits will be forfeited and you will have no claim against Cell C in respect of such unused Inclusive benefits. It is your responsibility to ensure that any unused Inclusive benefits are used up prior to cancellation.

I get that, when I spoke to one of your consultants she mentioned that the is a prorate to be charged according to the data that I have used. In that case Cell C was supposed to terminate the contract automatically when the 24 months passes as it is what we have agreed on the first day I took contract with you.

So meaning I am paying for the data that I did not use? Is that what you telling me, why if I join in the middle of the month you introduce prorate but on cancellation it is not introduced?

On top of that, the contract I took with you guys was 199 a month all of a sudden you started charging me 219 and now on the last one you charged me 306 how is that possible.

I still have a query on the raise of the monthly instalment that you guys just introduced without my agreement.

 If your contract is not cancelled on expiry of the Contract Period and is not renewed, then the contract will run for the Contract Period and after that it will continue on a month-to-month basis until the agreement is cancelled. Meaning that your contract is not automatically cancelled after 24 months.

There is a disconnection credit on your account which we can organize a refund for. Our Team will contact you.
