incorrect billing and flagging account as in arrears

In October 2017 i went to Vodashop Savannah Mall to renew my cellphone contract . Vadocom instead of renewing a contract upgraded my other number. I realized this on the 1st of November 2017. Notified vodacom they promised to correct the error. In the process of correcting Vodacom they upgraded my other number . Went back and complain, they promised to correct, but up until to date they have not corrected their error and that has an effect on credit status. They say i owe them three thousand rand, but my contract is flexi R200 and flexi 55 respectively. upon inquiry i was adviced that i owe them migration fee. i did not request for migration, i only requested that they correct their error which they have not corrected to date .

Today i called Vodacom Spoke Delie Call ref : ********** 282 she basically said i must pay and they will refund. I never budgeted for that amount and i cannot wait for them to refund me after 14 days. She told me that i either pay or my account will reflect as in arrrears even if they are aware that i do not owe them. i have been with vodacom for more than ten years their error and their system should not prejudice me.

Is their error and solving it should not create problems for me.

No consultant has contacted me, instead I get automated calls directing me to pay the account within a specific date. Vodacom admit I do not owe them the migration fee, but treat me like a bad debtor. I am now subjected to intimidating calls because of their fault. Is this really how Vodacom does business.

Below is an undertaking made by Vodacom. Dear Jiwawa, "We are sorry to hear of the circumstances under which your Hellopeter posting has reached us and we do apologise for the inconvenience caused. We thank you for bringing the matter to our attention. Kindly note that the Credit of R1881 including VAT for the migration fee has been processed, however this will reflect on your next Vodacom statement." Regards, Vodacom Consumer Website Team However yesterday Vodacom decided to deactivate my account. This is the power they have to force me to pay what is not due to them. I assume this is the reason why the undertaking was made privately, to appear that they treat their clients as clients, but not account numbers. It has taken them five months to address my concern, the fault of their official has become my problem. My credit profile has been dented and it appears they careless.
