**************** by Cell C

I’ve had cell c data for four years now. And on the last day of Black Friday day deals I logged a request to buy the data deal. They call me on the day and no one was talking on the phone and they hung up. I sent a second call request on the same day and they called early the next morning to tell me the deal ended yesterday.

Weeks later I went a did a normal upgrade where they sent me an email confirming that they are upgrading my data contract from 5gb per day and 5 gb at night to 10GB per day to 10GB at night. I then left the store confidently knowing they got the order right. 3 days after using the data, I realised it was finished. I was traveling and stranded on the side of the road. When I eventually got to where I was traveling to I’m told they downgraded me to 500mb that’s why the data is finished. When I asked th see em to rectify this I’m told they will send it to retentions who I have to check with after 48 hours whether they have rectified the mistake. In the meantime I’m told I must buy myself data and wait. When I did the upgrade at Tyger valley store, my balance was 18 GB left and now I am left with nothing and Cell c has deducted the money from my account for the 10GB and gave me 500mb. When I ask these questions to the cell c agents they hung up the phone on my ear. I’m disappointed and disgusted at the low level of customer service from Cell c.

while you taking your precious time and me losing on my deals that I could be doing online, I called again the cell c call center to have a gentleman tell me nonsense about wrong details on the system. When I correct him he told me he is reading something that is on the system, which I tell him the system is wrong otherwise I wouldn't be calling if it was correct I wouldn't be calling cell c. He hung up on me because there is a certain way that I need to speak to him, which I don't have at the moment because I'm angry irritated by celll c poor customer service and *******. Everyone's been hit by corona virus but we are not robbing people. DO BETTER!!

You will be pleased to know that 24 hours later after reporting this issue on here and multiple times calling cell c for the past 5 days no one from cell c upgrades called me. And I did tell you that they won't call because I have been dealing with this nonsense for the past 5 days and don't care to call and when I call they tell me there's nothing they can do at the customer service! Cell c took my money and 18 GB data and now I have no internet and losing money!!

Thought I'd mention that this is still unresolved!
