MTN direct avoid at all cost

On Monday 23/07/2018 me and my husband was assisted with our upgrades via phone with mtn direct. We were advised that the devices would be delivered on 26/07/2018. Which we knew was too soon. Today on the 31/07/2018. His device is being delivered. I phone mtn direct to find out what is happening to mine. Seeing that we upgraded on the same phone call. I was send from pillar to post. After 5 emails to the consultant nobody has come back to me. This is the thank you for being a loyal mtn customer for more than 7 years. After ample phone calls to the call center a feeble excuse is made saying there is no stock. Oh what a coincidence after all me and my husband took the same devices. There was stock for him but not for me?. Why wasn’t I told that stock was out of order while I was on the phone? Why wasn’t I phoned to say there isn’t any stock ect. Should the customer be the one doing the investigation as to where the device is? Isn’t my money just as good as my husbands? Sick and tired of bad service but you pay a lot of money!!!!!!!!!!!

The above mentioned section was from my inital post.

Today 06/08/2018 after more than 6 phone calls I received a phone back. This guy was utterly rude and couldn’t give me a turn around time. As if I’m the problem. This problem was caused by an *********** consultant who couldn’t do her job correctly.

Is this the way to treat a loyal customer?

Bad service!!!!!!!!

Thank you for your post.

We sincere apologized for any inconvenience incurred.

Kindly be advised that the upgrade was reversed due to no stock availability, MTN Direct have not explained why there was stock for your husband and not for your device.

Our apology for no call received from the agent to notify you no stock availability.

You may visit any MTN Dealership for assistance with the upgrade.

Kind Regards,

Alice van der Merwe

Best regards,

Hi good day Alice All good and well MTN apologized on behalf of the consultant. Myself as the customer is the losing party. The deal ended end of July? Who will assist me in getting the very same deal that was messed up by MTN direct? The customer needs to pay the price for *********** consultants! MTN can also send their complaints department consultant for some training on how to deal with unhappy customers. As they are utterly rude. This is the first time I was treated so bad by MTN. I will not recommend anyone to be assisted by MTN direct at all. It seems like MTN don’t value its loyal customers! Regards Erené Hendricks
