Impossible to cancel a Vodacom contract

It is unclear why Vodacom can issue contracts in store but one must phone to cancel a contract. I have now attempted 5 times to cancel a contract via the phone number - you stay on the line for a minimum of 20 minutes and when you eventually get through, the line is cut off and you must start from scratch. Sure you are not treating customers fairly and should enable a platform for cancellation that actually works? I want these contracts cancelled immediately or I will escalate this to the ombud!

And a week later still no promised phone call from Vodacom. Typical experience! You leave me no choice but to report you to the ombud! This is how you keep on taking money because we simply cannot cancel a contract that is long expired - not as if I am trying to get out of a contractual period.
