<p>This is one of the biggest/oldest problems we, as South Africans, have with the uncompetitive mobile network industry.</p> <p>On 9 December 2016, I called Telkom on 181180 to cancel two business contracts. Service at this stage was prompt and excellent. On the same day(2016/12/09) Telkom send back a contract cancellation form.</p> <p>I completed the form and sent it to the required email address with required supporting documents.</p> <p>I know the Cellular companies refuses to let customers go; therefore I used Adobe's Send & track to ensure I have proof that they received the documentation. </p> <p>They send me an email on the 14th back ( 6 days later) that there are no attachments.</p> <p>In fact, there were links to the documents, and I saw on Adobe Track & Send that they have in fact viewed the documents but did not download them.</p> <p>The debit order went off at the end of December. Although the numbers were already ported to Cell C at the beginning of December, this was fine as I understand the cancellation period is 30 days.</p> <p>But what got my blood boiling is the fact that they had the Audacity to still charge the debit order at the end of January.</p> <p>TWO MONTHS AFTER THE NUMBERS HAVE BEEN PORTED OUT!</p> <p>How on earth do you expect me to pay for something for two months that I didn't use?</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>

Today I saw another Debit order from Telkom go of the account.
When will my contracts be cancelled?
It has been more than two months that the numbers are already in use by another service provider.
I understand that the cancellation process takes 30 days, but come on it has been two months now.
TELKOM IS IN DENIAL; WE ARE NOT IN A RELATIONSHIP ANYMORE.
I FILLED MY DIVORCE (SERVICE CANCELLATION FORM) on the 9th of December 2016.
