Brand New Phone - Faulty
<p>Went to do my upgrade Sat. First it took 2.5hrs because the consultant couldn't find the correct deal on the system or something to that effect! After that long ordeal, I got home only to find out tha the speaker was totally ^%$#!!!!<br /><br />I returned the phone Sun, another hr of my time wasted. The consultant said it would take 1-4 working days.<br /><br />Went in yesterday because I haven't heard from anyone. He phones HQ/or whoever to check on the status and there systems are down!!! Then he tells me, "Oh, it's 4 days from the time the repair dept gets the phone"<br /><br />*** Vodacom? A brand new phone with a clear problem. How can it possibly take this long to do a straight swapout? Nothing &^%$# complicated about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p> <p>Receive the phone, turn it on, play a song, speaker ********** go onto your system, credit the store with a replacement that they already have in their store. 1hr later the same day, my new phone could be ready for me to collect</p>

So almost 2 weeks later, my phone's ready.
Go in to collect and yet again, there's some kind of issue on their system with booking the unit out! The thing that P^%$# me off the most is that none of the guys I dealt with had any kind of urgency
Over an hour later, I finally have my phone. On to the next issue....
I ask the consultant to check everything because I don't want to ever have to come back and waste my time yet again. My unit came with a selfie stick. Only this repplacement didn't have one. He says that they have to sent the stick back from JHB bcause they don't have any of those deals in stock!
***!!!!
Firstly, That means they could easily have given me a replacement phone from the existing stock in store bcause a new unit was not sent down from JHB!
Secondly, I now have to wait for that to come back and waste my time yet again going to the store!
USELESS!!!!!
