Diabolical Service

Good Day,

I wanted to log a formal complaint. I was told to email ***, but the email address is wrong. I was called by a Vodacom consultant to upgrade my package. The lady (N****001) said that my monthly payments would change from R264 to R280. I explicitly enquired about these figures.

To my surprise, an amount of over R440 has been debited from my account. This amount has been *******ly taken from my account.

I will be escalating it to the ombudsman as this is totally unacceptable.

I spoke to Aviwe who took my package back to what it was. I would like to be sent the call with this person, as they have gone against the consumer protection act.

I would would also like to be compensated for this inconvenience and money that has been taken from my account, which wasn’t meant to be taken to begin with.

I can’t believe they’ve made me go around in circles like this! Such a big company and they treat us loyal customers for many years like this.

Good day team. Unfortunately the issue was not really resolved. The debit order coming off my account is still high. It’s just draining because I spent almost an hour being assisted by more money than what I signed up for is being taken from my account. And due to it being a contract, I can’t even get out of this situation. It honestly feels like I’m being bul****. Very disappointing.
