Rain is fabricating bills out of thin air.

To be honest they dont even deserve 1 star, ive been with them. Few years, from the first month i paid them upfront for service before thy delivered my router, when i missed a payment they shut me down and reconnected only after payment. Their service got bad and i complained a few times with no response until i decided to leave them, at this point I had 2 devices with them. On 26 october i cancelled services with them and they sent me a confirmation that someone will be intouch. They never called me. Today they call me telling me i owe 5000 on my account and that ive always been a future paying customer when i have been pre paying all the time. They do not cancel your service when you request they let it run and make the bill stack up and then they are interested in calling me 4 months after cancellation. They say when I cancelled i had a R2000 outstanding, how when ive always needed to pay for them to reconnect me. These guys are ******. And i say if you dont want a bill pushed on you then go with these guys. **** them im not paying when i asked for cancellation and they even confirmed. ***9 Thats my cancellation reference. What exactly am I paying for?

My issue had you contacted me for cancellation we would not have the issue of usage. Sent call requests trying to report my modem missing that is how we got to me cancelling my account completely, no one called me. Even before my cancellation check o have 2 other request for calls no one responded to. You guys allowed the usage when i requested cancellation. Your message said you were sorry to see me go, leaning you understood fully that im closing my account with you, you have not given any other option to stop services except through you calling. How is it my fault that you did not end service when i explicitly asked you to do so? Why would you continue providing service like you were hoping i change my mind. I ended my service what is that money for?

This was on 26 October, my last payment was beginning of that month after u had cut my service after you had cancelled. My first payment went to u before you delivered my modem so ive always paid ahead for service how did we get here?

Im expecting a call from cancellation, not from billing, as far as im concerned im done paying you. What you say i owe u is bs. And you will have to come pry it from my dead body.

How am I liable if i asked you to cancel service and you continued providing service? I have a new contract with telkom, thats has been my usage, as far as I know you had cancelled my service upon my request as falsely advertised by you. You said no contract and one can cancel at anytime, i cancelled on 26 October 2024 im being billed for February 2025, how?

Because my cancellation was requested upon your 2 failures to contact me. I would not be in this mess, but i guess you have all resources allocated to rather force a bill on me and defend it on a review website.

I just check my account from the you have been billing me the full amount since i cancelled my service. This is why this is not making sense when you tell me you billed usage or whatever nonsense you are on about.
