3 WEEKS TO REPAIR A PHONE

Nokia was taken in to CRESTA VODACOM[NOT VERY HELPFULL STALL] 16/3/2019. Ten days later when I called again I was informed by the REPAIR CENTRE [NOT VERY HELPFULL PEOPLE] that an engineer will BE STILL APPOINTED two days from the day of my call.WHY DOES IT TAKE 10 DAYS+ TO APPOINT AN ENGINEER?????? few days later I called again if it was allocated and was promissed it would be ready within 2-3 days. Vodacom Social media team called and assured it would be ready before the past weekend..Weekend came and gone and still NO PHONE. Bianca from the SOCIAL tEAM AND PROMISSED TO LOOK INTO THE MATTER AND CALL ME BACK, TODATE no calls INSTEAD A MESSAGE ON FB ...........................another 2-3 days , spares ordered............. WHAT NONSENSE IS THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I DEMAND MY PHONE TO BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY , BECAUSE ALL I GET IS FALSE PROMISES AND TEN DAYS TO APPOINT AN ENGINEER. In the inerim am using my wife's phone and thus SHE IS COMPLAINING

UNACCEPTABLE SERVICE
