MTN South Africa - The worst service provider / *******

In February 2018 a contract was taken out with MTN with **** FICA documents (don't even know how they validated the info) However, the moment the debit order went from my account I logged the case with my bank, MTN and the Police service. My bank immediately launched a ***** investigation and the police was helpful and advised on all that should have been done. MTN on the other hand wanted 100's of copies of info. I sent through to them all requested information plus my passport copies as I wasn't even in the country on the date the contract was signed. After numerous calls and 100 e-mails where in every e-mail you send you get requested exactly the same documents over and over and over.

After about 4 months a lawyer phoned me as yes I was handed over for not paying the contract. I then forwarded AGAIN this time to the lawyer all the documentation and correspondence. After another month and numerous follow ups I received a mail from the lawyer where MTN advises the case and file was closed "FILE CLOSED - MF109329"

Now after 2 months my credit record has still not been updated and there is absolutely NO staff able to help me at MTN.

I have now lost income due to spending numerous hours away from work and not being able to get any credit as MTN is useless. I just want to know how a big company like MTN gets away with this as I have proof received from the branch where the contract was taken out that the false information was used and insufficient info with that too. I have NEVER been a client of MTN and believe me will NEVER be one and will make sure all my contacts know how ******* MTN is

Reviewer Update
MTN have rep**** in private to my message and said the credit record can take up to 22 days to clear. Since February (more than 22 days) but the 22 days is now over and still I have this matter on my credit record. This comes up with job searches, finance application and MTN is the reason why I am being affected negatively. I have never been an MTN client and will never be one and no one out there should ever go to MTN and if you are a customer, get out while you still can. Absolute ridiculous service and support. WORST service provider
