Daylight ******s

I was called by a Vodacom agent firstly from a private number which goes against POPI. Then I was sold an upgrade for home data when I had mobile data which was switched off. When the switch happened I called immediately to cancel when I was told to call back on Monday as they cannot help me. I called back and complained on social media to be given the run around. I was still within my 7 days cooling off period and cancelled which I was told was done. Sadly their system is so dumb a cancelation can only be effective at the end of month. My old package I was on cannot be reverted to until the next month. What must I do with no data for a month just because a greedy sales person wants to make a sale. No feedback no calls to provide feedback as I was told they would. Each time I called in it would take 20min to answer then another 5min to do verification. Really archaic. And to top it off I am now being charged for a service I did not which I cancelled within 7 days and I was told I would not be charged for. What a bunch of ***** and time wasters. I was actually told that is how it is. No recourse for a customer. **************** I say.

Lol but they can call from private numbers to sell contracts yet take no accountability for lying to customers and selling an upgrade. Who pays for all my calls and time trying to sort out the mess your devious call centre agent made. Definitely not you....you rather charge me

This incident happened at the end of June it's now mid July and all I hear is someone will contact but nobody does.

This is ludicrous. Your systems and people are *********.
