Bad Service

I am writing this in sheer frustration,by the lack of urgency, my query is being taken, I have made a payment through Payfast on the 27 April knowing full well I am more than a month in advanced, I have received the proof of payment via email.but it never reflected on the Cool Zone system.I have logged a ticket, but all they keep saying is that the problem is by Vumareach , I have emailed them proof of payment as well, but it is just not taken seriously, as all they say is it is being escalated....really since the 27th I doubt it. Because it is nearly expirying I make another payment , and this also does not reflect on there side although I received the proof of payment via email once again they blaming Vumareach .Bear in mind it is now the 18th and the first issue is still unresolved ...now 2 issues are unresolved as a ticked was logged again.So nothing was sorted out since the 27th...Can somebody please escalate this as I noticed I am not the only one with this issue here on Hellopeter. No customer agent seems to give a direct answer to the issue, there is also a lack of communication as you are not being told what is happening.I have been with Cool ideas since 2020, have had other issues which was always quickly resolved.

Hi Quinton,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We genuinely apologize for any inconvenience you experienced due to the delays in activating your new voucher.

It's important to clarify that Vuma Reach payments are directly processed through Vumatel's account, which necessitates transactions via Payfast. Regrettably, this means we have limited control over payment allocations, relying on Vumatel's team to address any system issues hindering payment reflections on customer profiles. Currently, Vumatel is grappling with technical challenges affecting Vuma Reach voucher renewals, and their team is diligently working to implement a permanent solution.

We're relieved to hear that your current voucher is now active. Your patience and understanding throughout this ordeal are deeply appreciated by our team.

Should you encounter any further issues or require assistance in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're committed to resolving any concerns and ensuring your continued satisfaction.

Warm Regards,
Cool Ideas Team
