The most useless accounts department on the planet

I have been trying for months now to reconcile the balance on my edgars account with no avail. It seems like that whoever runs the new billing department for the group have a strange math logic or cannot do simple math.

I keep getting charged interest for balances that are being paid up for VIP service fee and a mobile insurance premium.

Even after a public notice in the press that their interest free accounts are back in operation as per https://www.timeslive.co.za/news/consumer-live/2020-10-09-edgars-rapid-about-turn-on-the-axing-of-its-six-month-interest-free-option/ , their own staff are clueless.

I get emails from the staff saying that the interest will be reversed then the following month saying that I should be charged for it.

Is there anyone at Edcon that can respond to me and solve this mess.

Please be advised that because other services on your account like cell phone insurance and club, remember if you have other services on your account you will be charged interest even though you are on 6 months interest free plan.

Should you wish to cancel the cell phone insurance please feel free to contact *** and for club please contact ***
Kind Regards,Thembeka"
