Very frustrated!
<p>I've had Telkom mobile for the last 1,5 years without any issues. Although last month we moved house and we needed an Internet connection since the Telkom network wasn't good at our new place. I called to see if we could obtain a landline on Monday the 11th of April. After having my name *****ed up (logically because it's not the easiest name), which in turn made my application difficult for others to find on their system when I made follow up calls with the call center. No luck. And no willingness to try my suggestions for a possible solution.</p> <p>I went into the Telkom direct store and the guy there sorted me out with all the questions and incorrect spelling of name and passport nr. Then I got a message that on Saturday the 16th of April a technician would come and install the line. He came but couldn't install because we were too far from the road and a pole had to be installed first. He told me that he would log THIS MATTER INTO THE SYSTEM and normally within 3 working days they'd come and install. The next Tuesday another technician came out and told me the same thing. When I tried to call the service center, I got transferred to 4 different departments with no proper answer on when this pole would be planted. I went back to the store where the same guy tried to help me but also he couldn't get any proper answer.</p> <p> </p> <p>In the meantime, I had ordered a Galaxy TAB E from the Telkom direct store, that was supposed to be in within 3 days.</p> <p>After 2 weeks and still not having the device I then informed them to cancel this order because they couldn't seem to find any stock in the area. They did go to the Johannesburg branch,and left me waiting in the store for 1h45minutes , only to return with an ALREADY OPENED package which I refused to take !</p> <p>I also ordered a sim only package for my wife with number port, which they tried twice but still haven't been able to activate and port my wife's number. This too is a waiting game of two weeks.</p> <p> </p> <p>I've always been very happy with my Telkom mobile contract and the service I used to get, but now I've come to the point that I'm going to cancel my contract when it's finished and cancel all the other things if I can't get a proper answer on when things are going to happen. I can understand if things take time but don't make promises and don't deliver. if you would have told me from the start that things would take 2 months or so I would at least know.</p> <p>When I'm standing in the store and I see the advert "if you're not connected, you're not in business", I really get sick to my stomach. They want you to get their things but can't deliver.</p> <p>if I can't get proper answers by the end of tomorrow, I'm going to cancel all my accounts with them. I rather pay a bit more and get service then this nonsense!</p>
