FED-UP WITH PATHETIC SERVICE, *********** STAFF AND LIES

<p>I was ported from Autopage from Glocell. On 20/06/2016 I received a call from Lynn at Glocell offering me an upgrade on my current package. I normally upgrade from the 6th of July every year and decided to get the upgrade offered to me by Glocell. Lynn did the upgrade for a LG G4 Stylus on a Smart Chat 1 Gig Top Up for R249.00 p/month. When she checked on the system, there were no stock on the phone but assured me that I can go to the nearest Glocell Store to get the phone there. The upgrade is loaded on the system and there won’t be any problems. I decided om 23/06/2016 to phone Glocell Town Square in Weltevreden Park to find out whether they do have stock as I do not want to drive there and there is no stock on the phone. I was told by the store that they do not have stock. I then called Glocell directly and was told that they will have stock the Monday 27/06/2016. I phoned the Monday, spoke to Kulilelo / Kululeko and was told that they have not received the stock but they will have stock by the next week. I phoned again the next week, no stock, the same happened the week thereafter. Everytime I phone I was told that they will have stock within the next week.</p> <p>On 27/07/2016 I phoned again and spoke to Caron at Customer Services because no one in the Upgrade Department can help me, they keep on transferring me to Customer Services. I spent 35 minutes on the phone while Caron searched for a LG G4 Stylus on their system. She was unable to find any phone in stock. She said I must phone within 2 weeks and confirmed with her Supervisor that they cannot give a specific date on when stock will be received as they receive the phones from overseas. I really do appreciate her effort and the fact that she did not lie like the other agents just to keep my happy.</p> <p>This morning I decided to phone Glocell to change the phone on my upgrade as I cannot wait any longer. I decided on a Huawei Ascend P8 Lite on the Smart Chat 1 Gig Top Up for R299.00 p/month. It is R50.00 more per month for I phone I do not really want. I phoned, selected Upgrades, repeated the whole story for the 100th time and the gentleman said he must transfer me to Customer Support and I will receive an option to select the person who initially contacted me regarding the upgrade, which was Lynn. I knew he talked ******* because when I was transferred to Customer Support, there were no options to select and had to hold for the next available operator. Eventually when I got through, I repeated the story yet again. The Agent told me that she is going to put me through to Upgrades. I told her that Upgrades transferred me to Customer Support. She said she is sorry but she cannot help me, Upgrades must assist me in changing the upgrade. I was furious and fed-up and totally lost it. I just cut her off.</p> <p>If don’t want the Huawei Ascend P8 Lite and I refuse to pay R50.00 more p/month. I want my LG G4 Stylus for R249.00 p/month on the Smart Chat 1G Top Up as per my agreement dated 20/06/2016 and I want the phone by Friday which is 05/08/2016. I don’t give a hell were they are getting the phone from as long as it is brand new and delivered to my work. Should I not receive this phone by Friday 05/08/2016, I will walk the 1km from my house to the nearest Cell C store and arrange to have them take over my contract. I am not prepared to waste my time any longer with Glocell or to drive to hell and gone to upgrade or to sort out a query. From 23/06/2016, I have spent a total of 75 minutes on the phone with Glocell. I am fed up with their pathetic service, their lies to keep clients happy, all their excuses. Should this not be sorted out by 05/08/2016, I am done with them. </p> <p> </p>

It has been a week now and nobody from Glocell phoned me. I am fed up with this!!!!! I spent hours on the phone to sort this matter out just to be cut off after holding on for an hour while an agent check the system. I phone again today, holding on to speak to someone, but was cut off after 5 minutes without speaking to anyone. I have spent more than 2 hours since 20 June on my phone with Glocell. I am sick and tired of your pathetic service!

I JUST WANT MY PHONE!! I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR 2 & A HALF MONTHS FOR A DAMN PHONE. SORT THIS OUT, YOU HAVE TILL NEXT WEEK FRIDAY!!!!!!!

I receive a phone call from Zanale from Glocell on Friday 02/09/2016. I was promised that an agent will phone me to cancell the existing upgrade seeing that I have been struggling for more than 2 months to get a phone. The agent should cancell the existing upgrade and must create a brand new upgrade with a phone that is currently in stock. I have not received any phone call whatsoever from Grocell. I have tried this morning to phone and after 15 minutes while Beo was trying to assist me, I was cut off yet again. This has been going on for far to long and I am getting frustrated, aggistated and angry. Sort this out by end of this week as I told Zanele otherwise this contract will be cancelled and I will go to another, and better, service provider as I am sick and tired of your pathetic service and impotetence of your agents.
