Warranty Repairs and the R330 admin fee!
I handed my phone in for a warranty repair. The store confirmed the handset still falls under the 24 month warranty. I then received an SMS stating the repair will cost R2785, and if I don't accept the quote it is still subject to a R330 service fee. I refuse to pay any fees! This is the final straw with MTN, after 12 years with MTN my contract is again up for renewal, and I am moving to Vodacom!
