Poor customer service

<p>Good Day</p> <p>I have been a loyal customer for many years now. However, I am disappointed with the service I received at the Cell C branch at Chatsworth in Durban.</p> <p>I was at the store on Friday, 21 Oct 2016 to complain that my phone make a 'crackling' sound when I am on a call. The guy at the Cell C store dialled a number from my phone and told me that nothing is wrong it is working fine, even after I explained to him again the problem. He told me to use the phone and come back the next day. He didnt want to book the phone for repairs. I repeatedly told him that I am having this problem for over a month. He still did not book my phone for repairs and the warranty period is expiring soon. </p> <p>When I put my sim in an older phone, it works fine - there is no problem. </p> <p>I am so disappointed that I am considering not renewing my contract with Cell C next year.</p> <p>A very unhappy customer.</p>

Good Day Derrick

I went to the CellC store on Friday to hand over my phone for repairs.

After standing in the queue for 20 mins, I was attended to by Zayne. I was told to wait for another 20 minutes because the tablet on which they have to book-in my phone was not charged! I couldnt believe what I was hearing!!! I told him that I already waited 20 minutes and wasnt prepared to wait another 20 minutes. After telling him that I wasnt happy with the service and that I was going to contact customer service, he then completed a manual form to book my phone for repairs.

First he told me to come the next day (Saturday) to pick up the Job card. I refused because I was working. Then before I can leave, he told me he will email the job card on Monday (today).

(I also told him to make a note of the reference number you gave me but he didnt do this).

Disappointed!
