Harrassment from call centre despite paying accounts

<p>I paid my Truworths account by EFT and in fact paid more and therefor my account will be in credit . Despite calling the care line to tell them I had paid, they continued to call me 3 times a day up till 9pm. </p> <p>Calling people who are up to date on accounts, three times a day, and at night after hours is simply UNACCEPTABLE to me. I want to close my account immediately.</p> <p> </p> <p>I do not relish their attitude towards a paying customer that it, after all, their bread and butter. People shop with feet, and I shall surely boycott this store now and spread the word. Why is it fair to penalise me ?</p> <p> </p> <p>They claim by law they can harrass me till 9pm. Well, I am equally entitled to lay a acharge of harrassment againast them at the SAPS (which I am going to do)</p> <p> </p>
