Non-existent customer service

I received an SMS from the company on 18 August stating that my account is in arrears due to previous unpaid debit orders. According to my knowledge I had no unpaid debit orders, so I logged a case by emailing *** to query the matter. I received an automated response stating, "Your Case Number Logged ***9". This was on 25 August. But thereafter I was NEVER contacted with regards to this case, despite sending two follow-up emails (on 03 Sept and again on 27 Sept).

Then, out of the blue today, I received an email, not from Customer Care in connection with my case logged 10 weeks ago, but from the Collections department, stating that I am an "Active Arrear" customer. There was no message in the email, but a statement of account was attached. When I go through the statement, it looks like no debit order went off at the end of August.

But I have been trying since August to query this and cannot get any response out of Customer Care!!! I would be happy to settle any outstanding amount if the company can actually take five minutes to respond to my query!

I've been contacted now and the immediate issue has been addressed, thank you. I am still dissatisfied with the way this was handled, as my account carried an outstanding balance of R14 for over two years - due to no fault of mine - and I was never informed about it until now. Apparently this was reported to the Credit Bureau and probably had a negative effect on my credit rating. I hope that the company will report it to the Credit Bureau that the error was on your side and I did not miss any payments.
