I feel ****** by Vodacom / Apple (iPhone 13).

Vodacom has quoted me R18 200 to fix a phone that is overheating and with the result of overheating the screen cracked. I upgraded to an iPhone 13 in April 2024. In October 2024 the phone started overheating in October 2024. Its not even a year old. Now who has R18200 waiting to fix a phone that is manufacture faulty while paying 800 monthly contract for the devise.

This is ******* as non of this is my fault and im now expected to continue honouring the contract yet Vodacom /Apple are not honouring the client they've had for years.

Unfortunately, I cannot let this go as I have still pay for the phone that is not working.

No Vodacom personnel has contacted me and Vodacom Repairs is bringing my pone back to me unfixed. I'm going to take this to the CONSUMER GOODS AND SERVICES OMBUD only because i have the responsibility to pay the Vodacom monthly instalment and i don't want my credit record to be tarnished.

To add salt to the wound i have a credit of R1500 with Vodacom and when i asked for my refund i was advised to leave the credit it will be deducted from my monthly instalment. Vodacom thinks we have money sitting and waiting at their disposal!!!!

Vodacom is not honoring they're client !!!!!!!!!

Hi Vodacom Consumer Website Team

As stated earlier I currently don't have a phone as it somewhere with Vodacom. I did provide you with my email address i.e., ntngwenya862yahoo.co.

Additionally, I have just noted an sms stating that " Dear Vodacom Customer. Your service ticket with reference number EC-1U2S-2D7XID has been close. Thank you Vodacom". Not sure what does it mean.

I URGENTLY NEED MY PHONE PLEASE VODACOM!!!!!!
Im going to loose my job because my boss cannot reach me and when that happens im not going to pay the contract!!
When will my phone be ready?! I am happy to go fetch it in Eastgate!

WHY AM I STILL BEING INVOICED TO HONOR THE CONTRACT YE I HAVE BEEN WITH OUT A PHONE FOR 2 AND A HALF WEEKS.

My phone is back at repairs and im sure im going to quoted instead of fixing the PHONE

Also, for a telecoms company your turn around time in communication is terrible compared to someone like me sitting waiting for you to fix my phone. I make efforts to get some sort of communicates from you guys!!!!!
