Accounts total incompetency

Thobekile, re my mail below where I asked you specifically to ensure that a double payment is not deducted at the end of November since I made a manual payment(of which I’ve send you and how many other people the proof of) after last month’s debit order did not went through(which I arranged before end last month with MTN but it was not actioned).

Not only did a double payment went through, it also went off my previous bank account. That after I received confirmation from MTN that the debit order has been changed to my new account.

This is now on top of the fact that I struggled for a week to get my services reconnected after I paid last month’s instalment manually.

I get charged for every debit order that bounce apart from the fact that it reflect badly on my profile. All because of MTN staff incompetency.

I do not know yet who I else I will have to contact in order to get this issue resolved.

I use to be satisfied with MTN but if this is the kind of incompetency tolerated at MTN I will most definitely change my service provider. And advise any and everybody I come into contact with likewise.

Charelle, the reason why the debit orders has been rejected is because you (MTN) did not change my banking details as i requested. I requested the change on the 18th of October ( Is that not enough time before the end of the month?). I also phoned on the 23d to confirm, did not help either. I made a manual payment after my service was suspended, took me a week to get it connected again. After i received a confirmation from MTN via e-mail that my debit order has been updated and after i asked via e- mail your cust care not to deduct a double payment, ques what, end Nov a double payment gets deducted off my old account. I went to the Kollonade shop on Saturday, explained everything and guess what, they ensured me everything was in order. In the mean time i received a SMS to tell me that my debit order was returned. What a joke. This is TOTAL incompatency. And then you want to tell me the reason for the issue is the rejected debit orders as if it is my mistake!!!!!!!!
