I need a court order to view my mobile contract!

<p>I was persuaded telephonically 2 years ago to purchase an LTE 10gb contract from Telkom Mobile. I have had numerous issues with this contract over time, including data vanishing rapidly overnight even when my PC was switched off, data speeds nothing like what I was told I would experience, and also a total inability to view how much data I have available at any point in the month. At the end (or what I thought was the end) of my contract, I tried to cancel, only to be told I had signed up for 3 years. As I had never physically signed a contract, I asked for proof to be provided that I had signed up for 3 years, and was then told that I needed to obtain a court order, before I would be provided with a copy of the telephone call in which I had apparently agreed to this contract. This is incredible - why is Telkom so reluctant to release this "contract" unless it is because it would reveal that they promised far less than they delivered, and also because it would prove I did not sign up for 3 years? I have visited Telkom shops, had numerous conversations with Telkom, but to no avail. What a pathetic company. I would advise anyone being called by a Telkom agent to end the call, as otherwise you will have no proof of what you are agreeing to. </p>

Good day - I have received no further information in this regard. Please can I have a reply - if I do have to get a court order I will post this facton every available social network and I will contact every talk show in the country in order to ensure that people are informed not to agree telephonically to any Telkom offer.

Still no reply. This is typical of the service I have received from Telkom.
