Telkom's non existent customer service

I have placed an order with a Telkom direct store to increase the speed of my ADSL line. The order was placed on 5 July 2018 and to date (it is now 16 August 2018), the order has not been completed. I have followed up 3 times already with the call center on 10213, but it literally is a waste of time as it takes in excess of 10-15 minutes to finally speak to someone, thereafter all they do is say they are escalating the matter and then they issue a new escalation number. I have 3 escalation numbers already, but no -one knows whats going on.

Hi Charl, Thank you for your response. I do appreciate this, however its nothing different from what i have been hearing everytime i call the call centre. You have escalated the matter and given me yet another "reference number". If Telkom wishes to retain customers like myself, you have to do better than this. An acceptable turnaround time needs to be communicated to me and you guys need to deliver. Thanks, Vikash
