BEING HELD HOSTAGE FOR VODACOM SYSTEM ERROR

<p>I ordered an S8 upgrade on 8 May via website. Within 30 minutes of delivery, I noticed they delivered a wireless charger but no phone. After calling several departments over 2 days, one consultant admitted that there was a system error where numerous Vodacom clients were sent parcels/chargers without their phones. Vodacom has not contacted clients affected to notify them or apologise. Walk-in stores cannot assist in this regard. They have to send a delivery service to collect the charger, which can take up to 2 weeks. During this time Vodacom cannot assist me in any way until they collect the charger, but they will debit my account for the device.</p> <p>Horrible service experience!</p>

Reviewer Update

I received an obscure email from Lesley Abels - requesting the collection Ref number (among other things). Part of the issue is, Vodacom has not issued me this Ref number to start with, cause no one from your company has bothered to come collect your charger from me. Again, this points to incompetence and poor service from the online division - a division no one can actually get into contact with.
