Mtn Covid mad

I have had an Mtn account since 1997. Not many issues. Since Covid19 lockdown they have fallen off the bus. Mtn app doesn't reflect payments. The store service is dreadful. They are so terrified of Covid, they put customers at risk. After 3 months of negotiations, they still haven't totally activated my phone.

Good day, on your staffs recommendation and assistance, an Mtn App was installed for me to be able to pay my account over Covid19 Lockdown. The App was hacked. Unaware, I went into the store as soon as it opened, as I had paid and it wasn't reflecting?? I would have thought your staff would have picked up that I had been hacked the first time or perhaps the second time, but no, they waited for this ******** state pensioner to work it out for herself.
Check my record, I have a sterling account!!!
Making run from bank to store to bank and back. Standing for hours in the queues in the cold. Missing my meals - I am diabetic. I wish I had the luxury of porting my account but I don't even want to entertain that process. I suppose R 607 is peanuts to but to me it is half my rent! Being hacked is not my or your fault but I expect you to have picked it up first time and being more accommodating subsequently. It is what it is, but I am very disappointed in Mtn.
By the way, your off pat reply is grammatically incorrect.
"We sincere.......

....and in my sadness, I have also made grammatical errors which mortifies me even more. This has been a nightmare.
