Bad service
Over the past few weeks, my signal has been greatly affected for both my mobile phone and my ****le. I have sent emails, dealt with customer service, and went to visit a branch and all 3 give different information.
The reason for my anger was when I went to the Vodacom4U in Bryanston looking for assistance and the agent who assisted me contacted customer care. They both started laughing regarding my request and I could not make sense of what was being talked about as they spoke in another language. I was then advised that I will be contacted 72 hours after I spoke to Customer care the day before who did not log a ticket for me after they said they would and now I had to wait longer. I was then reminded that I'm not contracted which made me feel like Vodacom only cares about their contracted clients and not their prepaid as well. I have been with Vodacom for years.
I was called the following day and was advised that the fault is with Vodacom in both my home town and the new place I moved to and that the area I moved to does not have enough towers in the area. The towers are congested from their side and that it can take between 2 months to 2 years before more towers are allocated.
I then asked why am I paying for a service that I cannot use then and was told that it will be cancelled with no fees charged IF Vodacom cannot provide me with the 4G service, which they cannot. As I cannot make calls to family or clients, I cannot load mails and when it does load it takes incredibly long before anything happens, nor can I open a simple google document. I have to work from home after work and on weekends where I have to use a VPN what tracks that I am online and working. It disconnects every 20min and it takes at least 10min to a connection of 1 bar going again. I have also been told that my account cannot be created because the unused that gets relocated to the next month? What am I going to do with relocated data that cannot be used as it should be?
I have received a mail stating that my queries have been resolved, however, I am still on 1 bar of the signal as well as my wifi disconnecting every 15min to 20min.
Nobody is taking this seriously or giving me alternative options for a service I pay for just because its a prepaid phone number and I pay a small amount for the wifi. The self-help options are horrifying and the TOBI bot does not work when requestion for a "human" to get in contact with you.
Absolutely horrible service from the so-called "best service provider in SA"
I have 3 reference numbers all saying resolved however I am still struggling.
I wish you would put more time and effort into clients rather than pestering them with pointless messages about the shakeoff2020 product.

I get pointless messages about staying connected with family, loved ones and access education, health, and support which I cannot do because I'm not connected because of terrible signal and it's not load shedding as this has been going on for 3 weeks.

This is unacceptable! We had to call back and have another ticket logged! This service is ridiculous.
How can you contact the wifi router number and then said you contacted us! You have all our information, all our contact information, mails and complaints yet you "mistakenly contacted the wrong number"
We want this resolved today.
We cannot go back and forth and be billed for this joke of a service!
The is no care from Vodacom for the lack of service, laughing at customers and urgency to resolve an issue they knew about.
