Shocking service!

To whom it may concern

I have been trying to upgrade my contract with Cell C since the 23 / 12 / 2020.

Not only was I told that my upgrade was processed on the 23rd but I was then contacted a number of times from your departments trying to get me to take out various services. The upgrade was for a Samsung A31, a tablet and a smart watch at R 449.00.

To date I have still not received my upgrade. The unending calls that I have made to Cell C have been met with everything from:… • We do not have stock of the handset • Then we do not have stock of your smart watch • Then your upgrade is on its way • Then we do not have a upgrade on the system for you, it was cancelled but we will call back. • Then it was… sorry no-one called but the matter was escalated, you will receive feedback within 48 hours. ( No call back )

To day I have spent the better part of two hours just trying to speak to someone that will listen to me and resolve my query. I have been placed on hold 6 times, transferred countless times between departments, even yelled at!

As I write this email, not out of anger but sheer disappointment, wondering which cell network I will move my business to, it has dawned on me that my 20 plus years of loyalty really means nothing.

Update:

I received a call the day after I posted my concern. The consultant proceeded to let me know that they would resolve my concerns timeously after listening to what I had to say. She also informed me that they have no stock of the upgrade that I was promised but would look at putting an option together for me. I was then assured of a call back within a day or two.

So far I have had no call back. Just offers for me to use other services Cell C provides.

So still nothing resolved and still unhappy with the lack of service.

So still no call or resolution from Cell C.
I simply cannot believe how a company would not want to retain a client that they have had for 15 plus years. All this over a simple upgrade.

My contract comes to an end this month and I must confess that I will probably move to one of the competitors.

I am really disappointed Cell C!
