TELKOM ARE THE WORST

At the beginning of 2018 I tried to apply for a bond and get myself a car to trevel to work with only to find out I had a bad credit rating after Telkom reported me for arrears. I called telkom to ask what this was about and they said I did not appear to owe them anything and my credit was R0.00 on their system. I asked them if they are sure because there is an amount of R2300 I saw on ITC, asked them to confirm so I can pay for it ASAP of infact I did owe them, they assured me I did not. Brilliant,I then requested them to send me in writing so I can have my name cleared. They said they would send me a clearance letter and it would take 48-72 hours to arrive to me via email. It is now approaching 3 months and I have not recieved the clearance letter. I still have a bad credit rating and cannot move my life forward. I cannot buy a house, I cannot apply for loans to pursue business oppotunities I had set out for myself this year. I called Telkom 15 min ago like I have been for the past 2 and half months and all they tell me is to be patient, the case is resolved and I will get the letter. 2 and a half months to email a simple letter. I am apalled by the service I have recieved from this company, I am disgusted at the lack of empathy they have for their customers. I am a 25 year old man who has ambitions and plans to liberate himself and his family financially but cannot because my hands are tied by a company who cannot simply hit the 'send email' button on a computer. Customer care tells me there is no way I can escalate this so that my query can be resloved, I do not know where to look now and can only hope the telkom guys see this cry for help and do the right thing.

Reviewer Update
Hi Luleka. It's 2 months later and my issue is yet to be resolved. I have not received the clearance letter or any correspondence from telkom. Did you even look in the to the matter or just swept it under the carpet like it has been done every time I contact this service provider? I need correspondence A.S.A.P.
