Billing issues

<p>Hi There </p> <p> </p> <p>Following the 3 months credited by MTN my account is suddenly in arrears </p> <p> </p> <p>Emailed customer care on the 24th Aug 16 and all they seem to be doing is read the balance due as per the statement instead of giving me a detailed description as to how I'm suddenly owing when my account is supposed to be up to date </p> <p> </p> <p>All I need to know is what happened to the credit that was given and how was it allocated and where the outstanding balance comes in </p> <p> </p> <p>Looking forward to hearing from you </p>

Hi Siphumezo

Thank you for your explanation

So it means I was debited twice for May hence June is outstanding

I am allocated a 3 months credit in May that was used up in May when I only owed April on the 9th May

Mar - I paid

Apr - I paid and reversed the debit

May - credit was allocated and by then April was outstanding and obviously May pending, so the R1587.40 covered these months

On the 20th May, invoice was generated which covered May again

By the time June came, the credit was finished

May I ask that you rectify this as this will make my account up to date

Thank you
