Hi Mike

My ID number is ********** 027087.

The phone number in question is ********** 187.

The account number is A **********

Background:

This contract came to an end after the normal 2year period but when I wanted to cancel it, I was told that I can not because it was renewed.

I definitely did not renew it and also submitted an affidavit stating it.

MTN still deducted the "new premium" From my account for more than a year.

Eventually the deductions stopped, but MTN has made no effort what so ever to refund me.

Regards

Hendrik Oosthuizen

So as usual, no feedback, no response nothing from this useless company.

Fast to take your money. Most probably will tell me that they are in the process of solving this. The same excuse I am getting for months now (more than a year)

Listen to good advice. Never ever deal with MSN.

While MTN is owing me money, they have the odasity to send me a monthly bill. (Wich I pay every month)

My contract has expired in April 2016. For no given reason, my contract expiry date was extended until 2019 and a contract fee of R389.01 per month. When I asked them why, they had all sorts of excuses and I had to proof that it was not my fault. I then had to submit an affidavid stating that it was not me that requested an upgrade. A ***** case was opended by MTN, and all the documentation was submitted to their head office through the Westgate branch by a lady called Samantha.

On the 27th of July 2016, Samantha from MTN Keywest phoned me again, saying that she wants to get this matter solved and that I need to send her a copy of my ID (AGAIN) as well as signing a Cancellation Request Form. This was all done and returned to her on the same day

This matter continuead for months. Samantha will sometimes phone me and saying that the matter was almost resolved. Up till today, I am still trying to get some response from MTN.

I eventually logged a complain on Hello Peter on the 6th of April 2017. A person by the name of mike responded and requested more detail with the words "

Rest assured, it is not our intention to displease you. We look forward to improving on the service delivery to you.

warm regards"

Well MTN you have done nothing except DISPLEASING me!!!

This matter is still pending, and by the looks of it MTN is not capable of resolving this.

More than a year passed, and just want to emphasize again how pathetic MTN's service is. If I can give any advice to any person, DO NOT DEAL WITH MTN, they are a bunch of *******.
