Still no response... Thanks!
So we are now approaching a week, and still no response from Telkom. My previous complaint was escalated according to Zaffa, 5 days ago. It was obviously escalated out the front door... So here is another complaint. After the supposed last escalation I didnt even receive a call from Telkom! Thanks, taking customer support to the next level.<br> <br> Looking forward to the end of my contract with you guys and looking forward to your standard copy and past response to hellopeter complaints. No need for that, i've already got one, so save yourself 10 seconds:<br> <br> \Your reference number is SM164660""";;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;916429;26;9;2;0;1;0;0;2;15/11/12 11:21;212;NULL;15/10/20 7:45;15/11/10 7:49;Outsurance or Out of insurance;CL ***;Deborah Pillay;***;On the 20th of October, while my wife was driving to work, an unknown dog came from nowhere and my when my wife attempted to avoid it she lost control of the car and damage a thatch roof of a resident. Claiming for the damages of the third part to be repaired I was told that my wife is not legally liable to pay and that the third party must fix the thatch roof themselves. I'm not sure how things work but I'm pretty sure that the third party's property was damaged as a result of a car driven by my wife which is insured. The third party does not understand what I mean when I tell them that my wife is not liable for the damages caused by her accident. The question is, if my wife hence myself are not liable, then who is?. Kindly assist as a matter of urgency as the third party is getting very impatient since he uses the structure to operate a business.;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;656714;704391;9;5;0;1;0;0;5;15/11/10 11:44;212;NULL;15/11/10 10:08;15/11/10 8:12;Brilliant service from Mapaseka ;***4;Mapaseka;***;Brilliant service from Mapaseka as she went the extra mile to ensure that my existing policy with MiWay stays effective.;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;872976;704391;9;5;0;1;0;0;5;15/11/11 16:09;212;NULL;15/11/11 14:32;15/11/11 12:37;Friendly;***2;maggy kgatle;***;she was friendly and helpful.;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;356299;825376;6;2;0;1;0;0;2;15/11/13 11:28;212;NULL;15/11/13 9:44;15/11/13 7:56;investigation never being resolved;8,31E+12;too many people;;We have been under debt review since 2009. We went to the branch in belville a few months ago and was told by a lady there our debt should be almost finished in less than six months and suggested we go to our accounts and get settlement amounts to pay it off quicker, so we did... Not only did we find some accounts were paid up we also found out some have not received a cent! One account went from being 8k to 18k I was told by Easton berry my truworths was paid up, still waiting for a paid up letter, being harrased by truworths saying no payments were even made. My ITC says I have no debt and I'm under debt review this confuses me. Everytime my husband emails we get the same response saying this is being investigated... Some accounts were incorrectly inputted and the accounts were never paid so where does the money go? I'm tired of the lack of response from these people. Sonette did not investigate the matter and keeps saying the same thing. I feel we could rather resign from them who is the ombudsman for dent councilors?;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;524757;793962;16;2;0;1;0;0;2;15/11/16 12:21;212;NULL;15/11/16 10:43;15/11/16 8:49;Fax line STILL not fixed;8,71E+12;;***;I am really at a loss here.

Since they were taking tong to courier my phone, i decided to go to TT3 (the repair centre) to find out if they were done with my phone. So they tell me that unfortunately they cannot give me my old device as they had replaced the screen but the network was not working and they had already whipped my data so i should await communication from my insurer regarding a new phone.<br> <br> 24hour notifies me that i will get a new device, but i have to pay an extra excess of R400!!! it wasn't my fault that the phone needed a replacement so can i please get an explanation!!;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;919145;701332;12;2;0;1;0;0;2;15/11/24 10:35;212;NULL;15/11/24 9:01;15/11/24 7:03;Still no response;;;***;Despite my post on the 17th, and the very quick response on Hello Peter by Lancet saying that they will respond shortly - I am still waiting - a week later!!!

Firstly getting this installed was a nightmare and it took ages from date of installation to get the IP details and I was told by the technician that the line had already been working for 30 days.<br> <br> The fibre has worked well for 25 days days and has been offline since the 23rd. I have created support tickets and phoned their support number 3 times a day to try and get some feedback or reason for the fault and have had no response. When you call they promise to phone back but never do and say we should not worry because the fault has been escalated. <br> <br> In a nutshell we have now been down for three days and if we did not still have our Telkom setup as a backup we would be in trouble. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;922919;748954;9;5;0;1;0;0;5;15/11/26 13:03;212;NULL;15/11/25 11:13;15/11/26 9:31;Excellent service ;MT***6;Othupile Mothupi ;***;I am very happy with services rendered by Mr Mothupi, he was very clear and understandable in explaining all that I needed to know, he has shown great people skills and am very satisfied and looking forward to a pro longed relationship with momentum.

I called for reversal on the 11 Nov 2015 & I got a stinking attitude from one of the lady's staff instead of apology because I'm owing the bank. Finally, she instructed me to fax the bank statement and I comp**** but I never got my funds back until I decided to call again & again and on the 16 Nov 2015,I requested them to send me the settlement statement to get them out of my life. It came with the balance of R82741.34 and I paid it all on the 23 Nov 2015 irrespective of not getting my funds back because I thought somebody will be fair and consider me as a valued client but I guess I was totally wrong. They have been taking me from pillar to post promising to resolve my query with immediate effect but I'm still struggling to get my money back. I'm failing to understand why is it becoming a mission to pay me back yet I've managed to squeeze myself and pay them such a lot of money out of my pocket or they're just disrespecting myself.;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;923640;893260;16;2;0;1;0;0;2;15/12/01 10:18;212;NULL;15/11/28 8:44;15/11/28 6:46;BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE & REPAIR ISSUES;8,65E+14;;***;Hi...I'm immensely frustrated with the customer service I've been receiving from MTN the past couple of weeks. About a month after I upgraded to the Huawei Mate 7, the software failed and I had take it back to the store for to be sent off to the repair center. They told me that it could take 14-21 days to be repaired. After more than 3 weeks without ANY communication from your side I phoned the store and no one could tell me where my phone was or how long it will still be in for repairs. This continued for the next 3 days...Finally my husband went to the store and they told him to phone the after service repair center. They told us that the phone will be replaced and they are awaiting stock...it's been more than 10 days...I still have not received my phone, or even a phone call from MTN to give me any indication of when I'll be receiving my phone. Your call centers are not helpful at all as I've received several promises of feedback via phone, email etc...but I've received nothing. Please sort this out as I'm at a point where I want to take my business to another company.;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;923705;797459;14;2;0;1;0;0;2;15/12/01 15:42;212;NULL;15/11/28 14:02;15/11/28 12:10;Overcharged;9,10E+12;Naome;***;I was at legit on Tuesday being served by a lady called Naomi, I had to pay for the items twice whilst I told them that the money has already been deducted, to this day I'm still waiting for the money to be deposited and she had a very bad attitude and not wanting to listen ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;923930;793962;16;2;0;1;0;0;2;15/11/30 10:28;212;NULL;15/11/30 8:43;15/11/30 6:56;Telkom service 1.4 out of 5 stars;123456;;***;Our communications giant and monopolist of the telecommunication lines has attained a 1.4 star rating out of 5. This score has not improved for over a year, but Telkom have done nothing about it. South Africa has some of the most expensive Internet and telecommunications services in the world without actually offering anything even close to a decent service. Page after page of complaints and 1 star reviews but no response from their public relations or social media teams. Why must we wait 2 months at a time for a new application, 2 to 6 months for a line installation, and up to 2 years to resolve issues? Why must we spend 20 minutes on a call centre line? Isn't Telkom's job to connect people via telephone? Not make them wait 20 minutes for an answer? Is it too difficult to ask for a same day response on a new application for a line or service, or for a fault to be at least investigated within 48 hours? Telkom should be held accountable for their terrible service. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;207786;33;1;2;0;1;0;0;2;15/11/30 13:35;212;NULL;15/11/30 11:45;15/11/30 10:03;Ref no. ***2 When will i get feedback?;287245;Deneal/Eleen;***;I contacted your credit card division on the 12th November 2015 requesting a dual sim credit card machine as we recently had problems with the MTN network being down, We were basically trying to avoid the same problem from occurring in the future by obtaining a dual sim machine, we were given ref no. ***2 and told that the request will be processed to upgrade our machine to a dual sim machine. On the 23rd November 2015 we called again for feedback and the matter was escalated by Eleen, I was told that someone will contact me with feedback but this did not happen, a few days later I contacted your department again and Deneal escalated the matter again, Deneal promised that she will get someone senior to contact me the same day but to my dismay again nobody contact me. What is going on? Why doesn't anyone want to contact me to resolve this matter, if you can not give me a dual sim machine then give me another machine at a reduced rate, Stop making excuses, you are negatively affecting my business, do you understand this?

The sales manager assured me that with the extended warrant my details will be available with in the event I lose the receipt. In January 2015 I took the Tablet to the shop because it couldn't read the sim card. The Techxperts exchanged my Tablet for a new one. End of October 2015 I went to the store with Tablet because the menu button was not responding. The Techxperts tried to fix it I was told to bring it back if doesn't work and I was informed that customers are having problems with it . After 2 weeks I went back with the Tablet. Hein one of the Techxperts said I should bring the receipt or box. I told him that I can't find the receipt and box. Incredible connection has got records of purchased Tablets. On 2 December 2015 I went back to Incredible connection hoping that they would resolve the issue. The manager and the Techxperts said they can't assist me.
