Very frustrated with MTN

I've been experiencing daylight robery and no communication from MTN. I upgraded in November 2017 and was told I have 10GB free data. Two weeks later, my service was disconnected and I was told I owe R28000 for data used. I went to the store multiple times throughout 2018 where they called and emailed the head office to no avail. During that time, MTN debited R28000 from my account and upon reversing it, they started debiting R500 monthly from my account.

Today I called and was told I need to speak to a supervisor and when I asked to be transferred to one, I was told that they sit on another office and I cannot be transferred to them

This is very frustrating as I don't know what I am paying for. When I ask to be shown exactly what I used R23000 worth of data for in two weeks, they are unable to produce those records, but are very eager to take money from my account. I cannot upgrade because of this, and am constantly paying for something I don't know.

This is very disheartening as I have been a loyal MTN user since 1998.
