Hi Hellopeter followers,

Just an update on the complaint. I was surprised when CellC did call me back, but even more surprised when I realised the it looks like CellC motto is all about “Making money” and not “Serving the customer and keep them happy”

Long story short. Took out the contract about 15 years ago. On 16 Nov my phone fell in the water with about only about 3 months left on the contract. I called customer service and was told that if I pay up the contract I can upgrade immediately. So instead of going trough a lengthy insurance claim, I thought that’s the best option to go. That was the start of the bad service and lies. First had issues allocating payment and then trying to change the terms on the system and went from one promise to the other until I got fed-up. I walked across to the red dot competitor and got a phone with-in 10min, called CellC and cancelled the contract (19 Nov)

CellC now called me and said that the cancellation agent was suppose to tell me that I had to give 30 days’ notice. They can trace the call only till I was put trough to the cancellation department. The call to the cancellation department is conveniently “Not Found” Now its their word against mine, and they are defiantly not choosing mine!! So the outcome, in my own shortened word is “Sorry sir but you are lying, there are no call so you are liable for the cancellation” Why only cancelling today if I was fighting from the 6th already???? Why keep customers liable if you cant manage to keep track of recordings??

The amount that CellC billed me is small. My first thought was to just pay it and get it over. (If it was my fault I would have done it with a smile and apology!) I have decided that I will not pay this silly amount, not because I can’t, but because of the principle of it. I was treated badly and are now called a **** and should therefor pay? NOT WAY!

I have another contract, just waiting for it to end so I can cancel that one too!

Good luck to CellC, if this is the way you treat your customers I’m not sure how long the customers (who is the heart of your company) will support you!
