Payments not allocated to account: *********** Service

Pathetic service with *********** people. I owe R177 on my Contempo Card, as of 1st of July 2023. I paid R500 on the 27th of June 2023 - but with the incorrect reference. I contacted Contempo (RCS Group) as soon as I noticed and sent proof of payment. They advised they would look at it. My family and I then got severely harassed due to non payment, despite me telling them that I had paid and provided proof of payment. I then paid R200 on the 8th of July 2023 with the correct reference. Literally a couple days later - I am still being harassed and then I was reported to TransUnion for "apparently" defaulting on ONE payment - despite informing them multiple times that I did not and providing proof. Now my credit record is affected. When I call in .. I am told to just pay the R177 and they havent looked to allocate any of the funds. They will escalate .. over and over. No one at RCS has any idea what is going on it seems.

I have dispute this with TransUnion - but the service delivery is simply apalling.

Please note that I am still receiving calls from your company, being harassed for money. The funds still have not been allocated to my account and I am a receiving excuses that it's forwarded to the relevant department.
How difficult can this be?
If this is not fixed by the end of this week, I will take this further with the NCR.

Please advise if the payments have been allocated to my account and the ITC listing has been removed?. If I call through to the customer service .. I receive the same feedback as I did previously.

Please can a statement be emailed to me.
