Debiting my account without my permission

I have been battling with Vodacom for over a year. They continuously charge me for all sorts of ******* I did not subscribe for. Almost every month I use the USSD process to unsubscribe from everything. Doesn't seem to have any impact. I have a list of messages, mails and phone calls to them. Customers are not allowed to speak to anyone with any knowledge or authority. In my last written communication with Vodacom I stated that they did not have my permission to subscribe me or charge me for ANYTHING without my express written instruction or recorded telephone conversation. They have now charged me for a Showmax subscription. I'm in the process of lodging a complaint with the ombudsman and financial services board as my account is being debited without my permission. What do I need to do?! Vodacom staff refuse to give me any information regarding dates and times I supposedly subscribed to services.

No! I will not unsubscribe through Showmax. You will sort it out. I didn't give you permission to subscribe me in the first place so YOU need to fix it.
You haven't provided an answer to any of the points I raised. I can't go through this nonsense every month. JUST STOP SUBSCRIBING ME FOR ******* I DIDN'T ASK FOR.
I await your explanation on why I am constantly resubscribed for services I did not request
