***** victim left high and dry while being harassed by the very same Vodacom
I realised that someone upgraded my 3G line when it was about to expire, from a bill of about R126 to more than R2500 debited on my account for two months. I was charged for the upgrade costs and for two S9 that were taken without proper due diligence being conducted by Vodacom. I have wasted a lot of time and omey trying to sort this, went to two stores already, ended up at the Head office service centre in Midrand on a Sunday. I submitted my affidavits and everything that was required, this was in June.I followed up in July only to find out my case was never attended to. Followed up several times, people saying the have actioned their parts other departments needs to actions further. Mr Voda don’t your systems talk to each, accounts frozen and under investigation but still being harrassed by our collections department, what do you call that? I want my money back and if you dare put a default next to my name for non-payment “nizohlangana nembila zithutha ngesiXhosa” Worst worst service from a cellphone company ever in SA, especially when you are a victim of ***** that managed to happen within their own systems which are supposed to be tight, we are talking about a listed and global company. The reason I am coming here is that from dealing with ***** and Retention, I have now been given a non-existent number. In desperation I ended up making up complaints and enquiry email addresses.

I am still eagerly waiting for your said calls and an update as I have not been given an update BUT the letters from collections are still coming and the bill is getting higher and higher, just got another one today which reminded me to come back here cos I do not know what to do. Who is going to believe that you have been trying to get hold of me, when you cannot get hold of me how about sending an email at the address where you are still sending me the statements and letters of demand. Vodacom, all I want is for you to clear my name admit that you gave to S5's to someone else basically you upgraded my account without my consent. You will ensure that I am not listed with the credit agencies if am not listed already at this stage and to close the 3G account I have with you. I requested to close this account but I was told that I can't because its under investigation but for a listed company does it really take 6 months to investigate? Since July really??? I feel vulnerable and unprotected to say the least.
