MTN Frustration!

I have had a contract with MTN since 2014. Last year due to being unemployed I defaulted. MTN handed me over to a law firm called SSDA. I found a job and made a payment arrangement with them and I paid monthly. October 2017 I requested a reactivation amount which they supp**** and I paid. The account was handed back to MTN and my number was reactivated and I paid like normal again. Then to my surprise on the 31st December 2017 MTN deducted R4700 from my account! Imagine my shock. I call MTN and they apologise and say they don't know what it was for as the account is with legal. I explain the whole situation to them and they say the will escalate my query. In the meantime I reversed the debit order. Two weeks go by and nothing from them. I call again and same story I have to explain the whole situation and they say they will escalate it. I call after two days and still same story. I called SSDA and they say the account has been closed on their side. So now my account is suspended and apparently in arrears and MTN can't help me. I am so frustrated because I don't know what to do anymore!

Good day,

Thank you for taking time to raise your concerns with MTN, please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused as result of the breakdown in the service delivery in one of our touch points.

We have tried to contact you to no avail, this is because we are unable to pick up any records on the ID you have supp****. Please re-post with the ID number that is connected to your issue so we can investigate.

Best regards,

LVDW
