Unsatisfied MTN Customer

After being told on numerous occasions by Delene from MTN Chatsworth that my account is sorted out only to find out it’s not sorted out! On the 5th October I went in to the MTN Chatsworth store and spoke to Delene regarding this account. Whereby I was not given the full data deal that I signed up for. This is going onto the third month I am experiencing poor pathetic services from MTN Chatsworth branch and MTN itself. Delene stated that this is not her its MTN where the problem lies and she showed me many emails more that 30 where she states she requested my night data on my first contract data sim was not working, there after she showed me many emails regarding the incorrect data loaded on my third contract data sim, also she showed me an amount of about plus minus R80.00 that was going to be credited on my bill that was due to be printed on the 11th October 2019. She told me I will see the credit on the bill that just printed. When I received the bill via email there is no credit on the invoice. Then this morning I was credited with my outstanding night data after having put through many requests to find out what was happening. So when I phoned 135 this morning to cancel this contract as I am not satisfied with paying for this anymore as I have not been credited for the data that was not issued to me neither was credited on my account, MTN tells me I will have to pay a termination fee or the balance of the 24 month contract. Why must I pay when they have NOT been giving me my full data for the past 2 months? It is the responsibility of MTN to cancel this contract as their billing system seems to be a total disaster. I am not going to pay for something that is not my fault. On the contract that I signed up for was 5 gig day data double to 10 gig day and 5 gig night data double to 10 gig night at the price of R149.00 per month, but that is not what I received on that data sim. When I called 135 this morning the lady by the name of Thobeka told me I need to email them the few pages that I signed when I took this contract. When I contacted Delene from MTN Chatsworth requesting this information firstly she sent me a single page which does not have my signature on it, then I had to once again phone her at my cost telling her that’s not what I needed. She then informed me that she can only access this information on her PC and she is not at work today so I need to wait till tomorrow. Every day is passing by; everyday is a different excuse and story from Delene, so again I WANT THIS CONTRACT CANCELLED. 3 months to fix this data problem is a NO NO to me. I await your reply in anticipation.

Yet another day and another excuse from MTN. Delene called me at 10.40 am stating that she cannot email my signed contract to me as I cannot view any other formats on my phone only PDF.
I told her email me because I can view the document on my work PC then she states she cannot send it to me as the whole of MTN system is offline and she needs to go look for these forms manually.
I am only getting phone calls from Delene full of negativity no positive outcome at all. How much longer must I listen to this nonsense from Delene? Is there anyone in higher authority that can assist me with this major problem.

Please tell me are you saying I am lying that Delene has not been assisiting me?
I have been having problems with this sim data since the day I signed up for it, I have been given the run around by MTN Chatsworth branch, yet the bill was always paid before due date. Yesterday Delene informed me that she was going to do a provisional request but still no response. What kind of service is this from you?
Being the customer I had to beg Delene to sort this issue out and I get called a ****?

After making many request and attempts to speak to the regional manager of MTN Chatsworth, I finally get a call at 10:06 on the 23 October 2019 from a male by the name of Shahim Sheik.

He says his contacting me from MTN head office and cannot see any problem with this line so he does not understand why I want to cancel this account as he see everything on his system is perfect. He said that I was sent an sms on Monday the 21rst October 2019 stating that I have been credited with the outstanding data, but on my phone there is no sms that came to me on Monday. He also told me that on the 11 November 2019 I will receive my full data of 10 gig day data and 10 gig night data. I told him I am not going wait another month to see if I receive my full data or not as I have been waiting since September for this problem to be resolved. He refuses to accept that I am not going to pay another month and wait to see “IF” THIS DATA ISSUE IS RESOLVED. I am very disappointed to be treated in this manner from MTN and be spoken to with attitude by MR SHAMIM SHEIK. He has no ways of speaking to me, he was very rude and abrupt as a manager I wonder who trained him to speak to a customer in that tone. I have not breached my contract in any way that MTN should be treating me in this manner. All this has done has put me under stress and has upset me by the way this case has been treated. Delene told me it takes 30 days for the credit to reflect, Mr Shahim Sheik tells me 2 weeks. All I am getting is lies from all staff members from MTN, but I get called a **** by Lorraine the store manager in Chatsworth who refused to take my call when I requested to speak to her. Everytime I went into that branch all staff members are sitting on their personal cell phones, facebook, whatsapp and instagram instead of assisting and fixing customers problems. That branch is like a circus. Yesterday Delene told me she will get this contract terminated, and today Shahim says NO. What is this? I do not want this contract I want it closed. End of story I am tired of been round and round in circles. I am a working class man with no time for this nonsense; I have a job to do which pays my salary unlike the staff at MTN Chatsworth Centre.

Yet another day has passed and no call back from Mr Shahim Sheik, yesterday when he called me at 10.16am he advised me that he will call me back within 2 hours. I think his watch stopped working. So now what to do?
