Telkom Installation

<p>I have spoken to Telkom numerous times about my bill which is not correct. When I call the call center they told me before I made my first payment in MAY 2017 that I only needed to pay R321,04 and that they credited my account with R638 because Telkom refused to put in infrastructure on the account of "We don't get into roofs". </p> <p> <br />I DID TELKOM THE FAVOUR AND PAYED R350.00.</p> <p> </p> <p>So I went and spent my own money to put in infrastructure and got everything ready just so that telkom could come and connect the line. </p> <p> </p> <p>Telkom even went a step further because they care so much for their clients that they told me if there was any fault on the line that I have put in that telkom WILL NOT fix it and it is my problem to try and solve that.</p> <p> </p> <p>Now Telkom wants to continue to charge me an installation fee?</p> <p>For what installation if I did 99% of the job and the installer only needed to activate the line.</p>

Why is it that Telkom insists on not servicing their clients. Once again someone from disputes department with the name Gloria phoned me to tell me that I need to spend more money BEFORE Telkom will correct their own mistake.

When asked to speak to her manager her reply always stays the same: "He is busy and will not give me any other reason which she has not yet already given me."

What does Telkom not understand if you did not put in infrastructure and I needed to do it on my own costs and you only activated the line then I cannot be held responsible to pay the installation fee when no installation has taken place. An activation has taken place that I would agree on.

I have the phone loggs where I am trying to get hold of the manager DONALD at Telkom dispute department on ********** almost 30 times without any success.
