Expensive,bad reception,dropped calls

<p>I purchase a contract with cell C in February and I am happy to say that I am cancelling it 2 months down the line. The reasons being that I as a business owner cannot continue too have calls dropped, receive messages that I have missed calls when it did not ring, pay for oob data when I specifically instructed them to pause internet once the bundle was complete, inclusive minutes that exclude special numbers (0860) My bill with Cell C is thru the roof. I would be way better of if I stayed at Telkom mobile. The staff member I spoke to was rude and gave me idiotic advice. The R15500 bail out fee will cost me significantly less than to remain with Cell C.</p> <p> </p> <p>the power is in your hands. Please...</p>

I followed the technician's advise, however, my Cell C experience remains one of the worst mobile experiences I have had in the 10 years I had mobile contracts. I will never re******d Cell C for any business owner.

The only hope I have is that Cell C's cancellations service works better than their actual mobile service
