Very very bad and disappointing service

On 13 April I received an SMS with a OTP to finalise my contract application with C Cell. I DID NOT APPLY FOR ANY CONTRACT. I tried to call the number provided in the SMS with no luck. On 14 April around 11 am I received a call from C Cell ***** department, asking if it was me that app**** for the contract. I advised that it was NOT me and the lady assured me that she will block and stop everything from her side. Immediately after that I called the SAPS ***** Prevention line and they confirmed that I am registered with them and that every credit and service provider can ask for their letter from them before they can open a account. They confirmed that some companies does not follow that protocol. (LIKE CELLC, because if they did I would not have been in this situation). Tonight I received a notification that money was deducted from my bank account by Cell C. I called to find out what is going on, they confirmed that I have an open contact with them and there is no record or notes of me confirming that it is not me and that they should stop it. Now I have to go to the police station and get an Affidavit and then I must send it to them and only then can they stop my contact THAT I DID NOT SIGN FOR AND TOLD THEM THEY MUST STOP IT and refund me . The lady told me she will in the meantime freeze the contract but cannot confirm that in writing. I do not have time to go to the police station. Why must I go trough this when I confirmed that it was not me opening the contract last week Wednesday!!!!!!!!!!!! I really do not feel supported by Cell C in this scenario!

Amazing how on Hello Peter Cell C replies nicely and looks very helpful, but then they did not even bother to call me. Just sending emails requesting the same documents that was requested before the review. Not really answering my questions and not giving me the voice recordings that I asked for.
