Multichoice call centre agent threatens decoder upgrade

Good day,

I was contacted by a multichoice call centre from the number *** offering an upgrade in my decoder. I rather requested they delete my number from their database as I received too many calls.

They proceeded to drop the call and call me from the following number *redacted*. They threatened to process the upgrade and were very belligerent and informed me that they had all my information in hand to process the upgrade. I have the recorded conversation as evidence.

I contacted Multichoice through their online portal this week but have had no feedback and no acknowledgement so I am using hello Peter.

Firstly, can Multichoice account how it manages an upgrade if it is **********. 2. Their process to regulate private customer information for sales. 3. The remedial action with such individuals/call centres.

I expect this matter will be taken seriously as this was quite offensive and abusive given their power and access to private information.

Regards.

My query is regards to the following: 

The threat by the agent to send me a new DStv decoder. He called me from a personal number: ***.

This is after a call from the call centre: ***.

Secondly, my issue is how will DStv/ multichoice deal with this individual/call centre in this regard.

I have a recording of the call.
