Poor and unacceptable service, or rather no service at all

Good morning. I am terribly disappointed and filled with irritation due to telioms disregard for customer understanding and satisfaction.

On the 12th November 2018 I requested a relocation for my adsl 4mb line from Mpumalanga to Johannesburg. They immediately cut off my wifi even though I informed them I will be moving on the 16th November 2018 only.

After moving to Johannesburg, I waited two weeks for a technician to come out to my new address. The technician left without any explanation. I waited for feedback untill the 4th of January 2019 when I decided to call in and enquire. I then found out that my adsl line has been cancelled with notifying me and I still owe Telkom for the months which I had absolutely no service at all from Telkom. I asked that my landmine be cancelled aswell. They handed me over to their collection department and with numerous communications via email they sent back the file to Telkom, I received an SMS saying my matter has been resolved together with a reference number.

So now, in the 6th month of 2019 I receive another invoice stating I owe Telkom R1243 for their services, which I haven't been able to enjoy since the 12th November 2018.

I have stopped their debit orders in January 2019 when I found out they have cancelled my line without informing me. I cannot pay for a service which I am not using, they have no proof of ever installing and cabling to the new address for wifi nor landline usage, yet I am still billed as if I'm using any of their services.

This is purely pathetic and unacceptable.

I would not advise anyone to make use of Telkom.

Reviewer Update
Not to mention that in the time I actually used their services my wifi connection was poor and I was left stranded for atleast 3 out 7 days a week, without any internet connection, yet still the full debut order amount was deducted via debut order every month. Like, what kind of business are we dealing with here? Does Telkom even care? Reading all the reviews even makes me feel like my matter is just a drop in the ocean of bad reviews.
