Impossible to cancel service

<p>I have been a loyal Telkom customer for over 3 years, I have a landline that I mainly use for streaming and downloading. I am moving house at the end of the month and therefore wishes to cancel my Telkom Landline. I sent the formal notice of termination of service to their cancellation department on the 9th of February 2017. I promptly received an auto response email informing me that they will get back to me within 21 working days...... One month later I again tried to contact Telkom to no avail. Since then I tried to contact them on several occasions again to no avail. I am now totally fed up to the point that I am refusing to pay the monthly account, maybe I will then be heard!!!</p>

Hi,

So you are telling me that it takes Telkom 2 months to pass the buck to Mweb?

I already cancelled the ADSL line with Mweb, has been cancelled since the 31st of March. If Telkom had only a grain of customer service intelligence they would have atleast called me to let me know of the process and not just send me a sarcastic reply 11 days after my initial complaint.

Please note that I will not be paying the April 2017 invoice as I jumped through all of the hoops that Telkom has in place in order to force everyday South Africans to use their bad and monopolised service.
