Overcharged billing

I was overcharged for alleged roaming charges and I complained on Friday and I was told that my complaint has been escalated but to my surprise yesterday I get an sms that my query has been resolved Not sure exactly was resolved as the billed amount is under dispute and I am not paying it Their call center agent are also not helpful as well How do I incur roaming costs when I am in SA

Good day  Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We refer you to an email that was addressed to you by one of  Portia Mukaswe on  Sunday, 03 February 2019 10:22 AM to your email address *** . Details below: 

Good day Mrs Jaca , 
In response to query ref: ***  Kindly note  that invoice date (2018-12-11) , has been investigated.  Please note that there are no credits due as usage has been generated from simcard in use.  Roaming Charges have been validated correct as per the sim serial number provided and usage was generated directly from your sim card.  Usage limit, Airtime, Provisioning and any Bundles only apply within the borders of South Africa.  All  charges have been verified as correct and charged according to interim Network agreements.  Each time when you establish a connection when roaming you get charged , the reason you have incurred  charges.  MTN only bills usage generated off the sim card which registers on the Network, had there been no usage, no charges would have been incurred.  Kindly  refer to the link below:  https://www.mtn.co.za/everyday_services/RoamingInternational/Pages/UsingPhonesAbroad.aspx  We trust that the above mentioned is beneficial to you. Please feel free to contact us should you require additional.
