MTN Unable to book in a device for repairs while under warranty and on contract with them

MTN charge me for a device that is not working and taken out on contract with them and still under warrenty and refuse to book it in for repairs without proof of payment. I do not have such proof and I would have expected MTN to have such records of my device given to me on credit. When you call customer care thay say it shall be booked in but when you go to a shop they tell you another story.

Now I am sitting with a quite expensive divice and expected to pay MTN for it for 24 months while it is not working. Samsung would also not book it in without any proof of purchase given to me by mtn. This was initially a autopage contract wich is now all transferred to MTN as autopage does not exist anymore. And it seems like some information like the divce details has got lost inbetween the lines and now me as the client needs to pay and take the loss.
