GETTING **** BY VODACOM - REFUND AND CANCEL ALL MY SUBSCRIPTIONS.

I received my statement, and notice a billing amount of R395.38 for Vodafone Live. After investigating it shows I have subscriped for "Weekly -save R2" R5.00 daily, "Real Time News" R7.00 daily, Like it " R7.00 daily, "Cookies Factory" R7.00 daily, "Mobile Academy" R10.00 daily, "Mobile Academy "R10.00 daily, "Mobile Academy" R10.00 daily, - notice 3 times on same day, "Hia Special" R7.00 daily.

What *******, do you really think I don't have a life. I am married (happy) and don't need to chat or subscripe. I phoned Vodacom today and they can't help but they can charge. Is Vodacom at the point so desperate to collect money from the public, charge but don't have answers. Provide me with contact numbers ********** and ********** and email ********** I must sort out my own things.

I want all my charges/money returned to me on my statement by Vodacom and cancel all above subscriptions. If Vodacom can charge surely they must be able to provide the service. Why don't you put something in place notify the customers that something is getting charge that was not done previously. Make sure that customer are treated in the correct way and not being ****med. This is yet again a ****.

I am giving a warning that if this is not sorted out I will proceed this to the Ombudsman, Media, Regulator to investigate. I want all my money refunded on my next statement.

DeonMatthysen: privately THIS IS THE ANSWER RECEIVED FROM THE INFORMATION RECEIVED FROM VODACOM. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!! I WANT MY MONEY BACK ON THIS VODACOM MONEY MAKING BUSINESS. Dear Deon Matthysen, Thank you for contacting WASPA (Wireless Application Service Providers' Association). The Wireless Application Service Providers' Association is an industry body representing various WASPs who provide content services over the cellular networks (ring-tones, wallpapers, competition, bulk-sms etc). We do not provide any services ourselves. Vodafone Live is not a WASPA member. Unfortunately, this means that your complaint falls outside of WASPA's jurisdiction. I have, however, passed on a copy of your complaint to our colleagues at Vodacom. In addition, I encourage you to contact Vodacom's customer care centre directly. You can reach them at or .
