New device not delivered and Customer service is **********
Telkom, my grandma has been struggling to get her new wireless device after the copper lines has been retired in their area. Shes been without a landline for almost two months now and has been waiting for more than a month for the delivery of the new device. Your chat center's service is really bad and was told to call sales, but she cant call sales for free as her line is down. I feel its unnecessary and unprofessional that an old lady of almost 85 have to call and waste her little pension money she receives to get any action from you. Please find a transcript of the chat below. Welcome to the Telkom Chat service. One of our friendly agents will assist you shortly.
Please hold for the next available Agent.
