THE CONSTANT HARASSMENT OF *********** CELL C EMPLOYEES MUST STOP.

This is now the third review I'm writing of cell c. Background again: A while ago a female from cell c called me on the telephone and offered me a contract for a data bundle. It was R 99 for 20gig. I agreed telephonically to the contract. I never received any statement or account details. The woman also did not activate my debit order as expected. I received the sim card that was delivered to my house. When I inserted the sim card into my router , it didn't work. I went to Cell C President Mall in Krugersdorp. The woman behind the counter printed a statement. On the statement it indicated that the account due was R 148,99. I indicated to her that I took the contract at R 99 p.m. She didn't know what to do. She indicated that she thought I needed to pay the amount, but she saw on the system the account was closed. She indicated that I had to go pay the R 148,99 at President Hyper or Pep . So I paid the amount per internet banking. The sim card was still not activated and the DATA NEVER WORKED FROM THE START. Due to the problem I was sitting with cell c I went to MTN looking for a new contract, there was no way I would proceed with cell c ever again. I received a suitable contract and data from MTN. When they sent my application to head office, I was informed that cell c has blacklisted me on Splendi and my application at MTN was rejected

I discovered cell c, after the closure of the account, continued to add an instalment on my account every month. When I contacted them, they demanded that I pay another R 491,66. The struggle started. After a long struggle with *********** people at ALL THE DEPARTMENTS of cell c, I paid the full amount. On 10 Dec I responded to a telephonic call from cell C. They accused me of owing them R 400+ money. I was extremely aggravated and told them that I paid the money the previous week, sent the evidence to Splendi, I went to cell c President Hyper. The woman behind the counter made copies of the receipts and promised to send it to head office. She even sent me confirmation per e-mail. The person who called me gave me another e-mail address : cellccollectioncentre.co.za She said I must send the info again. So the person who called me promised to rectify the account right away. I e-mailed the info again on 10 Dec at 1:52 pm.

Today on 11 Dec 2020 I received a call from cell c no ***. The woman accused me of owing them R 400+ money. I was extremely furious and told them that I paid the money the previous week, sent the evidence to Splendi, I went to cell c President Hyper. The woman behind the counter made copies of the receipts and promised to send it to head office. She even sent me confirmation per e-mail. I also indicated that I sent it to cell c again yesterday. I was extremely angry with this constant harassment. So the woman said she would take it up with her supervisor and ended the call.

I have never seen such a massive level of incompetency of ALL DEPARTMENTS at any other business EVER before.

This struggle has been going on for many months and there is no sight of the end yet.

THE BRUTAL HARASSMENT BY CELL C IS CONTINUING.This is the 4th report I'm posting on hellopeter regarding cell c.

Cell c sold me a data contract for R 99 per cellphone.
The data never worked.
I went to cell c President Hyper, they indicated the account was closed but i needed to pay R 148+ for nothing.
I paid it.
I went to MNT to apply for a data contract since the one of cell c didn't work.
MTN informed me my application was rejected because cell c has blacklisted me.

Long story short, On Monday 6 Dec I went to cell c President Hyper.
The woman advised me to pay whatever cell c demanded.
In desperation I paid the full amount and took the receipt back to cell c.
The woman made copies and promised to send it to the relevant department.
She also sent me a basic e-mail to confirm I was there.

On 10 Dec I responded to a telephonic call from cell C. They accused me of owing them R 400+ money.
I was extremely aggravated and told them that I paid the money the previous week, sent the evidence to Splendi, I went to cell c President Hyper. The woman behind the counter made copies of the receipts and promised to send it to head office. She even sent me confirmation per e-mail.
The person who called me gave me another e-mail address : cellccollectioncentre.co.za
She said I must send the info again.
I e-mailed the info again on 10 Dec at 1:52 pm.
So the person who called me promised to rectify the account right away.

On 11 Dec 2020 I received a call from cell c nr **********.
The woman accused me of owing them R 400+ money.
I was extremely furious and told them that I paid the money the previous week, sent the evidence to Splendi, I went to cell c President Hyper. The woman behind the counter made copies of the receipts and promised to send it to head office. She even sent me confirmation per e-mail. I also indicated that I sent it to cell c again the previous day.
So the woman said she would take it up with her supervisor and ended the call.


Today , 12 December 2020 the attorneys of cell c called me. The no was **********.
THEY INDICATED TO ME I OWE CELL C R400+.
I WAS BEYOND MYSELF WITH RAGE. I INDICATED TO THEM THAT I PAID THE AMOUNT MORE THAN 2 WEEKS AGO AND SEND THE EVIDENCE TO CELL C, SPLENDI, AND EVEN WENT PERSONALLY TO CELL C PRESIDENT HYPER TO SUBMIT THE EVIDENCE. I DEMANDED THEM TO CALL CELL C PRESIDENT HYPER AND ASK THE PERSON THERE WHY SHE WASN’T DOING HER JOB BY SENDING THE INFO IN.
THE PERSON AT THE ATTORNEYS SAID SHE WOULD FOLLOW IT UP.

I demand now that cell c stop harassing me immediately.
I indicated to the attorney today that cell c is quick to blacklist you for nothing, but are unable to get the blacklisting removed.

I have never seen such a massive level of incompetency of ALL DEPARTMENTS at any other business EVER before.
This struggle has been going on for many months and there is no sight of the end yet.

See all the previous reviews on hellopeter.
The only line they know is that they will be in touch with me.
Even that never happened.!!

*** cell c!!!!!!!!! IT'S ABSURD.
cell c sold me a data contract for R 99 pm. over the phone. The contract never worked. I approached them and closed the account.
They kept on adding R 149 pm. R 99?????????
I was unaware of that.
Then I learned they blacklisted me for R 650+.
After many months of struggling, I paid the full amount-TWO WEEKS AGO.
The blacklisting was never lifted.
For the past 3 days cell c contacted me accusing me of owing them R 491,66
I sent the evidence of payment AGAIN.
Today I received the following e-mail from cell c President Hyper Krugersdorp.
