I am not happy with the way they handled my issue. I need answers. Your online service sucks big time, they do not explain important details, they are all about making sales.

I have a contract Cellphone with vodacom for about two years. Last year around June I got a call from Vodacom insurance, they offered me insurance in case I lose my phone or damage it. I never received a contract with full details, I never signed anything and I was never told that I shouldn't put a sim card from other networks. I lost my phone on saturday the 27th of November. I immediately called the Vodacom to blacklist the fone as I was told that incase I lose my fone, I should call to block the fone, Then I must go to the police station to open a case. I did exactly that. I called vodacom customer service and I was told that I should wait till monday to make my claim. I called the vodacom insurance department on monday and I told that My insuarance claim declined because a different network sim card was on the fone when I lost the fone and there is nothing they can do to assist me. I was advised to cancel the insurance. I was told that I must call the Sales department so I may get the voice recordings of the day they offered me the insurance. When I called the sales department they kept me on the line for hours and from there I was sent from pillar to post. Till now they haven't assisted me. I haven't got the voice recordings. This so unfair as I have paid the contract for almost tow years without missing any instalment. I have had their insurance for about a year and this how I am treated for a being a good client to them. I am escalating this issue to Ombuds.

I have been waiting for your call. Its almost 12 hours since you guys promised to call me. Its clear to me that you not taking my complaint seriously. Its very clear to me that my issue is not important. I trusted vodacom but they have let me down big time. They don't care about their customers.
