<p>I upgraded my contract to get a S7 and GearVR at the beginning of November 2016 at MTN store Garden Route Mall, George, Westeen Cape. I was billed R300 more than my contract agreed amount monthly until the Head Office in Florida resolved the issue once I visited them. I was given a GearVR that is not compatible to the S7, when I returned it 3 November 2016 I was informed I will be provided with a suitable one but 8 February 2017 and I was informed by the store manager Ashraf Sodoms to get another one via Samsung Rewards Competition. MTN head office says it cannot assist with a GearVR. Yet I signed a contract including a GearVR. STAY AWAY FROM MTN. Today I tried to make a call, it keeps saying I have no airtime and when informed a consultant on 1808 she said before dropping the phone on my ear that Id have to turn off the mobile data on my phone before I make a call and this is normal way their network works now.</p>
