Urgent Complaint and Immediate Cancellation Request - Faulty Tracking Device and Unacceptable Service
Dear Netstar,
I am writing to lodge a formal complaint regarding the severely deficient performance of the tracking device installed in my vehicle, which poses a significant and unacceptable security risk. I also wish to formally request the immediate cancellation of my contract with Netstar, as the service provided is entirely unsatisfactory and falls far short of what is expected from a security and tracking company.
The tracking device installed in my vehicle is demonstrably faulty, consistently providing incorrect location data. This is not merely an inconvenience; it is a critical failure that compromises the very purpose of having a tracking system – the security of my asset.
To highlight the gravity of this issue, I contacted your control room on [Date of call, if you remember] at approximately [Time of call, if you remember], seeking the location of my vehicle. To my alarm, the control room also provided me with an incorrect location. This demonstrates a systemic failure within your service, as even your trained personnel, with access to your systems, were unable to accurately locate my vehicle. This constitutes a massive security risk and renders your service entirely ineffective.
Furthermore, I logged a call for a technical person to attend to this faulty device on [Date of logging call, if you remember], and despite it being almost a full business week, I have yet to receive any resolution or even a firm commitment for a technician visit. This lack of responsiveness to a critical security issue is utterly unacceptable and demonstrates a profound disregard for customer safety and satisfaction.
Given the persistent and critical malfunction of the tracking device, the failure of your control room to provide accurate information, and the prolonged delay in resolving this matter, I have lost all confidence in Netstar's ability to provide a reliable and effective tracking service. This experience has been extremely disappointing and frustrating.
As it has not been a month since the installation/activation of this tracker, I demand the immediate cancellation of my contract with Netstar, effective immediately, without any penalties or cancellation fees. I believe I am well within my rights under the Consumer Protection Act of South Africa, which states that consumers have the right to receive goods and services that are of good quality, in good working order, and free from defects. Your service clearly fails to meet these basic requirements.
I intend to move my business to Cartrack, a company I expect will be able to provide the reliable security and tracking services that Netstar has failed to deliver.
I expect a prompt response to this complaint and confirmation of the immediate cancellation of my contract. Please also advise on the process for the removal of your faulty device

We will be sure to get our Internal Team to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
Kind Regards,
Netstar
