Application declined due to " poor credit rating"

I have a current data contract with vodacom. I wanted a second one. My online application was declined due to bad credit rating. Impossible to find out through the call center what the problem is or dispute it. I have done online checks at different sites and have an excellent credit rating! Something doesn't make sense. Nobody is willing to assist or explain why it was declined. They just keep on saying " bad credit rating". And put the phone down in your ear. You cannot speak to anyone else that can assist. I wouldnt have app**** if I didnt need it! Pathetic unhelpful service. And with the country being in lockdown state we have no other available options...I am so disappointed in how vodacom treats it's customers

I received a call from the consultant that in a very friendly and professional manner explained to me what the problem was ( if only the call center would have been this helpful it would have avoided a lot of unhappiness). I do understand now why my application was declined... Not because of a bad credit rating... But because you can apparanlty only have ONE wifi router with them ( "maximum number of lines allowed "). i will contact another service provider then to assist me with that. Thank you for getting back to me.
