Extremely upset at how ***** is handled by Cell C

My Personal details has been used to commit *****. A debit order went off and I logged this with cell c on 26 September 2021. I haven’t heard a response back. I have been 4 times to my closest branch and they sent twice a follow up about the ***** also no response. This is EXTREMELY concerning as the account is not closed and I will NOT be held liable for the debit order that has not been stopped! Can someone please sort this out ASAP!

Hi

I have done this more than a week ago! I just called customer care and they said all they can do is flag the numbers of the person that took out the contracts. I have reported the matter to trans union and clear score. All retail stores have blocked the accounts except cell c. How is it so hard to close the account ?

No I have not. I have not received any response nor has the store received a response. This is a matter of urgency. You cannot tell me it takes a whole week to close a ***** account when that person can still shopping with my details. I am not a cell c customer nor have I ever been. This is concerning as all other stores involved in this case responded instantly and closed the accounts immediately. Cell C is the only store that is taking their own time with closing this account. My bank has also informed me to let you know to stop the debit order as they cannot. Again, I cannot and will not be held liable for this account as it was not opened by me so I do suggest that you close it immediately
I would like an update on this ASAP and also receive a letter stating the account has been closed ASAP
