Bad service from RCS

I have two RCS cards. Last month I asked RCS to cancel my debit order and I would make my own payment each and every month as they just debit as they want (just short of R4,000 from my account last month). Today I have RCS phone me to let me know that they had tried to debit my account and were unsuccessful!!! One of the cards is an RCS card and the other is a Pick 'n Pay store card. When I ask RCS which one they have tried to obtain a debit for, they cannot tell me. According to my bank records, they did not try to debit my account, however, on the statement, they continually charge me for this. When I made payment to my RCS card directly last month, it asked me to capture the card number as my reference ... I had cut up my card into little pieces so picked up my account number from the statement I obtained. Now I seem to be having problems with my Pick 'n Pay card ... according to RCS, I am in arrears with my Pick 'n Pay card ... really, I did not have enough monies in my account and so the payment did not go through, however, on the 12 January 2023, I paid this myself into their account, where does the arrear amount come from??? I have already cut up my RCS card, should I cut up my Pick 'n Pay card too??? I have had excellent service from Pick n Pay but cannot say the same for the service from RCS. I tried to contact RCS from my phone as the banking detail that was sent to me is not being accepted via the FNB app. The bad service continues ... I phoned twice, followed the voice prompts and without getting to speak to anyone, I got a request to give a rating!!! If the bad service continues, I will cut up my Pick 'n Pay card too. I need someone to explain to me why my bank app does not accept the detail given to me by RCS and why someone from RCS cannot answer to whether the arrear amount is on my RCS or PnP card.

Reviewer Update
After my original post above, someone phoned me from RCS and again reiterated that I was in arrears by R882 plus my bill of R1 087-00 for the month and I wanted to know where they came with the arrear amount. We went through my account together and she could not tell me where this arrear amount came from and said she would do some investigation and get back to me. In addition, I asked for a statement reflecting this arrear amount. I am still waiting for the call. Then today another lady phones me and says that I promised to pay on the 1st ... she is correct in that I said that I would pay once this issue had been rectified. She informed me that there was no arrear amount and wanted to know when I would pay. I explained the situation and asked her to go and listen to the recordings before arguing with me. What I cannot understand, is that they take on staff who are not prepared to do what is expected of them and actually argue with the customer like she did. I have been a good customer and she should realise that without us, she wouldn't even have a job. I STILL want to know where this arrear amount came from. I have always given Pick 'n Pay good reviews on Google and don't see why their name should be tarnished by RCS. Please go and listen to the recording before arguing with me ... And I believe that whoever it was, should take responsibility for her bad attitude and hope that the company is going to do something about it. I have already cut up my RCS card and am on the way to doing the same with my P'nP card. In addition, I am going to put something on social media so that this doesn't happen to anyone else.
