Do Vodacom actually train their employees?
<p>I opened a Hello Peter account just for issues with Vodacom - that is how often I have them!!!</p> <p> </p> <p>I opened a contract with Vodacom in November and told the consultant that I wanted a limit set in place so the contract could not go out of it's contract limits. I knew this could be done as I have one contract like that that basically becomes a prepaid until the month turns over when the minutes or data levels are reached. I didn't know the exactly wording or name of the product and they suggested a ''call limit''. The definition of the word limit is ''a point or level beyond which something does not or may not extend or pass'' - to me that was exactly what I needed. Perfect.</p> <p> </p> <p>Well 3 months down the line it isn't so perfect. The call limit was never set up. The phone never went into prepaid and I am now faced with a R 2k bill from November, a R 7k bill from December and a bill so far of R 12k in January!!! And it turns out that the correct product I wanted is a ''top up contract'' - or maybe the new information I received is wrong agan?? Who knows. I hae adapted the policy of ask 3 different people at Vodacom the same question, if you get the same answer twice then go that route.</p> <p> </p> <p>I need somone from Vodacom to contact me immediately to deal with this. I look forward to hearing from you.</p>

An update. I was contacted by Vodacom's customer service, an agent by the name of Moenier de Vries. Moenier motivated a 90% - 95% discount for us on our account and we received the credits that month. He then added data onto the cellphone contract in question, free of charge, and changed the contract to the plan it was meant to be on from the start. We were extremely impressed with how our complaint was handled. Thank you Moenier.
