MTN Customer service is just ****.

Hi,

I have a problem with MTN customer service and staff competency. I took a contract(black friday special) on the 23rd of November 2017 and the special i took was a fixed 500 rand per month. They told me that for November they will charge me for pro-rata charges which was 7 days that was left for November and in December i got a Bill that said i was to pay over R1000 which didn't make sense to me as i expected to pay 500(for December) plus less than 500(November pro-rata). I went to the nearest MTN store around my area and after checking my account they told me that the guys who captured the contract on the system made a mistake of not deselecting some options that had to deselected for the contract to match the one on special and they instructed me to go to the branch where i opened the contract. I went to the branch, the guy who helped me take the contract admitted his mistake and rectified the mistake on the system and logged a call for MTN billing department to refund me the extra amount that i was charged. The call was logged December 2017 and there was no response from MTN until I made a follow up and the guy who assisted me opened another call, which took more than 3weeks for me to receive a message that said my call was resolved and there was no extra information on my money or anything. I had to make a call and ask for clarity and the person who assisted me said there is no info on the call and re-escalated the call and after few days it was closed and i called back still the person who attended to my call had no knowledge of what was the outcome. They have been closing and re-escalating for 5 times now and that is not helping. Here are some of the consultants that attended to my calls: Keenan Noma Ntuli Zanele.

I have a simple question, MTN employee admitted into making a mistake on the system and rectified the mistake, however i was overcharged and he promised that i will be refunded and a call was made. What is gonna take for MTN to refund me money? I have been travelling to MTN outlets trying to resolve this and who is supposed to re-imburse me for the extra costs that i have incurred? Last i am using my time when talking to MTN *********** customer service consultants and my time is being wasted. Is there interest on my money that they took since last. Last one if i log an incident call me or right it on a message what was the outcome or solution.

In summary, I took a contract and was overcharged went to where i took the contract, an mtn employee admitted that he made a mistake and logged a call so they can pay back the money i was overcharged AND MTN is not willing to pay back my hard earned money that they debited on my account because of the mistake that was done by their employee. My number is ********** 134 im tired of calling MTN, i have been calling them for the last 7 months now and they are not willing to help me.
