DISGRACEFUL SERVICE FROM FINANCE

This is for the finance team. I have asked for a debit order to go off my account and gave them my new address and banking details on the 28th of April 2025 and then when the debit order was supposed to go off, they debited the incorrect account. I then logged a ticket and did an EFT payment. I then got sms messages that they will terminate my services for the line. The payment took 2 weeks to get allocated and me calling countless times as they did not even bother to call me. I then filled out a debit order form which was sent on that same ticket on the 5th of June 2025 with my again correct banking details and again they debited the incorrect account and then sent me an email to advise that they owe me money. I spoke to an Afrikaans speaking gentleman on Wednesday and explained this entire story AGAIN and STILL IT IS NOT FIXED. I called in this morning at 7:52 am and the lady could not get hold of finance. She said they will call me back. I am now tired cause I am now responsible to pay 2 X reversal charges for METROFIBRE finance NOT GETTING THIS RIGHT FROM THE START. I work from home and my daughter does online schooling and I have said this multiple times. I NEED THE DARN INTERNET ACTIVE AT ALL TIMES. I now want the head of finance to call me and sort this nonsense out while I am on the phone and I feel that it is ONLY FAIR THAT I GET THIS MONTH FREE AS THIS WAS AND IS NOT MY FAULT FROM THE START. I want a call TODAY

More, Marilize,

I would just like to state that this ESCALATION was told to me, done at the beginning of June already, 2 days prior to me sending the debit order form. So, my frustration is not CURRENT but for more than a month now this is NOT RESOLVE. I am now awaiting a call as they emailed me to ask when they can call me but ABSOLUTELY NO CALL AS YET. How do you expect me to be happy about this or even remain calm?

The email I received on 27 June at 17:43 pm was also NOT what we discussed, and I have requested that Marilize calls me today so this can be resolved immediately before I get any sms messages to say my service will be suspended AGAIN due to the finance team NOT RECTIFYING my account more than a month ago as I am the one that called several times and each time I was promised that it will be escalated and resolved.

Can this get sorted TODAY. I am now done with having any patience as I have advised every single person that has called me from your office that I work from home and my daughter does online schooling and I require this internet to work daily.
