NO SERVICE

<p>I was receiving sms's with my statement on and I could not open these and was concerned about invalid items being added to my account as well as Service charges. I have tried 5 times to get statements for the last 8 months via email - This is just not happening. Why am I being charged a Service Fee for NO SERVICE</p>

We have received your concerns and apologise for the inconvenience caused by the matter. Please note that the service fee will not be levied to your account without your authorisation. Although it has become necessary to charge a service fee, we have taken the plight of our customers into consideration and discounted this fee to R22.80 per month which equates to R273.60 yearly as opposed to the prescribed maximum fee of R60 allowed per month by the NCA (R720 yearly) . As noted within the letter , your consent will be required when next purchasing in store and should you wish to decline the implementation of the service fee, Edcon reserves the right to action your account accordingly. You have been a longstanding customer and we thank you for your patronage and hope that you will continue to be part of the Edcon family.

Kind regards,
