Appaulling customer service with Vodacom.

<p>I repeatedly have <strong>the most disgusting</strong> customer experiences with Vodacom.</p> <p> </p> <p>I have been trying to upgrade my contract since the 21st December, and still, am having issues with actually getting my phone dispatched three weeks later. I keep having to call to follow up, I then get told I will be called back in a few minutes and the next morning I have to call back to find out further information and the entire story has changed again.</p> <p>I find it so hard to believe that when I ask about customer service the man on the line (a manager) says we are just sales and not customer service. <strong>Customer service in an ethos and not a department.</strong></p> <p> </p> <p>I then get told I have to cancel my entire upgrade and start the whole process again as they cannot update my address details!!! When I say I may as well cancel my contract and move to MTN - the manager gives me the cancellation number! Not once does he say let me try and sort this out for you. Not once did anyone bother to call me back. </p> <p> </p> <p>It's an absolute disgrace.</p> <p> </p>

Hi Vodacom

Still heard absolutely nothing.

Just your automated response to bring up your response rates.

It's like crickets......

I have now called back again.

I have been holding for over 13 minutes.

My phone has still not been dispatched or even updated on the system.

There are no managers on the floor as they are all on their break.

But "Don't worry ma'am we will call you back in 30 minutes. "

The ever elusive return call.
