RAINSP SA! return my MONEY !!!?

I've never felt so disgusted with services as the service that I've received from RAIN. On the 1st of July 2021 an amount of R479 was deducted from account for my internet subscription however my internet services were suspended on the 5th July 2021. I then call the customer support *** to find out what was happening. Relebogile Jankie ( 7****22) informed me that my internet services were suspended due to payment not received, I explain to the consultant that was assisting me that the money for my internet subscription was debited on the 1st of July. She requested that I send her my bank statement in which I explained to her that I won’t be able to send through a bank statement as the money was deducted on the 1st of July and the transaction for the 1st of July will only appear on my statement that will be issued at the end of July. I then forwarded her screenshots of the inContact notification and the screenshot from my transaction history. She told me that she has escalated the query to the billing department with a turn-around time of 2 to 24 hours. Even though I’m using the Rain sim card for work as I’m working from home, I waited for 24 hours without feedback received. I initiated another call to rain support spoke to Magdeline M (***), explain again that I needs my service to be re-instated as the money was deducted and I’m using the sim for work purposes, I was told that it’s going to be escalated again therefore I requested to speak to a teamleader or a manager however I was referred to a senior consultant (Pascaline) whereas I was told that I was referred to a team leader. After a much struggle for days with consultant to get to speak with a team leader, someone that can assist with will checking and do a follow up with the billing department, I NEVER RECEIVED A CALL BACK FROM ANY TEAM LEADER AS PROMISED instead I spoke to different consultants: fumaya, Simangele Sibiya( ***) and Fikile Ma****eng (***) who just told me that the matter has been escalated and they have not received any feedback and there’s nothing her/she can do. On the 7th July 2021 16:39, I then received an email from Rosina Kola advising me of the outstanding amount and to provide a FREAKING BANK STATEMENT!!! Of all the references linked to my profile, could rosina not see that all that had been communicated as to why I’m unable to provide a bank statement?!?! TODAY 09/07/2021, I have not received any other communication NOR MY MONEY BACK (SIM is still suspended and I’m happy with that) I highly disgusted and feel like I want nothing do with Rain and they can just reverse my money back.

A month back I had network issues and the consultant told me to rather cancel and go elsewhere by Puleng Mthethwa (i have an email to support this statement) !!! What a joke! @rain stakeholders, Listen to the calls made by clients and the comments received by your staff!

i need to be compensated for my time, airtime used to contact your support and data I've used from the date of suspension to date. I had to get a top-up for emails and to also download proof for your staff to prove that funds were paid towards rain.

I'll await your feedback.

Did you even read the initial statement? days later I'm being told of the same thing, which does not resolve the issue at hand! one of the consultant said " status: funds are reserved and not reversed, hence i still say I'm being inconvenienced for Rain system issues?!?

This is what your Billing sent to me yesterday:

| Rosina Kola (rain CeC) 11 Jul 2021, 08:02 SAST Good day Telly

Thanks for contacting rain support.

Please note that the is an overdue amount, reason why you can't connect and the account is still in arrears, but if you have made payment provide the bank statement rather than the transaction history as proof. If not to sign in on the website to open my rain use the pay now button to make payment to reconnect.

email received from my in-contact which was said to be invalid proof by Rain:

Dear valued customer • FNB :-) R479.00 reserved for purchase @ Rain from Current a/c..656528 using card..6179. Avail R*. 1Jul 04:04 Please do NOT reply to this message as it is sent from an unattended mailbox
Now you advise me, with the about statement received as a billing resolution. How does this resolve the issue at hand for funds debited? the funds that went off are for the month of July connection and today is the 12th of July 2021 and I still DO NOT HAVE CONNECTION and MY FUNDS ARE NOT REVERSED BACK IN TO MY ACCOUNT!!!

I no longer require Rain services, kindly return my funds back to source. if issue is too hard to be resolved her, please let me know so I can escalate further. the only feedback I want is to confirm the account number to be credited nothing of reconnection. I need feedback by COB, I have been patient enough as it is!
