Dear Andiswa,

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.

We sincerely apologise for the frustration caused by the recurring late payment fees. We understand your concern, particularly as you receive your salary on the 27th and have previously requested that your account be debited.

We would like to investigate the billing and debit order arrangements to establish why the late payment fees are being charged and whether the applicable payment dates and requirements were correctly communicated to you.

Please reply to this email with your Cell C number and account details so that we can review the matter and assist you further.

Kind regards,
Cell C | BMT

Best regards,

Your company is very ***********, different stories and misinformation everytime i ask about this charge. if i was told longtime about the 5 days business rule i would have changed my deduction this is new to me. Already the network is ridiculous am just waiting for this contract to end and leave. This is exhausting, every month i need to call cell c about the charge and they dont seem to know about it. What about my R70s every month its the same story no man i cant am really ****ed and am taking this to ombudsman. You cant have 5 says business rules but you dont advice your customers of such, what kind if circus are you running?

Dear Andiswa,

As per communication, the payment method will be changed to Cash/EFT but the debit order date will remain unchanged.
