Bad Service Ideal Prepaid

Good day,

I would like express my absolute dissatisfaction with the service or assistance I have been getting from Ideal Prepaid staff specifically David, Claudia and Lilian. I was told to follow a procedure where my landlord send written communication to Ideal prepaid so that I can be paid, I did that but till today I have not been paid.

Lilian told me yesterday that after speaking to her seniors, my refund will be paid today 24/12/2019 however when I did a follow up on email, there was no response to that email, I then followed up with a call where I spoke to Portia who told me that my case is with her manager who is not in the office/knocking off at 15H00.

Then I got a call from Claudia who told me that her manager gave the case to her, the resolution is that I will get my refund in January 2020 which was a big shock for me, she also said her colleague Lilian was incorrect to tell me I will be paid on the 24/12.2019. I then followed what she was saying and asked how much I will be paid, she said my landlord will decide what he pays me, imagine that answer, I paid R1500.00 now someone is just going to decide how much they pay of which it is exactly what I was avoiding by requesting ideal prepaid to pay directly to me.

Right now I have no idea where I stand, I don't have electricity at my house, I don't know if I will be refunded my money, how much will be paid and who will pay me, but I am sure I paid Ideal Prepaid an amount of R1500.00.

All that happened is that I bought for their meter which was incorrect, having meant to buy for my Tshwane meter, they just needed to refund me so that I can buy for the correct meter.

Regards

Simphiwe

Dear Simphiwe,

We sincerely apologise for the inconveniece that was caused over the Festive period.

Please allow us to investigate the matter, but we need to mention that refunds do have a process to follow, if payment was made by mistake or not, there is a procedure that needs to be followed and the Service Agents have to follow this procedure duely.

We will be in contact with you shortly.

Kind Regards
