Lord please shut vodacom down as they are *******

Firstly a 1 is way too high for Vodacom, I would like to give them a -5 rating... this website should allow to give them disasters instead of stars... I took out a contract more or less 2 and a half years ago. The contract was with an extra free phone and airtime. Turns out they were charging me for the extra phone's airtime. I called and alerted them and told them to refund the 2 or 3 months they deducted the money for. I have the invoices and statements from them and my bank statements if their accounts department cannot do bookkeeping. That never happened. 2 years later (August 2020) I called to cancel the contract and then September 2020, then November 2020 and January 2021 and so on, I tell them to cancel the contract and refund me ALL the money from the beginning of the contract and now. Still nothing. Everytime I call their excuse is I did not call cancellation, so if I didn't call cancellation and I'm dialing the same number who am i speaking to now- answer vodacom mam... Really!!! I explain again, it's all blank, I ask to speak to a manager, I can't. I ask why, no answer, now I'm ready shout and swear, I mention what *****s and ******* they are, oh don't forget *****, they say the call is recorded for my protection and suddenly they see i have called and guarentee it will be cancelled and they have flagged the refund. I ask for the person's name and they blatantly refuse to give it to me. They can see I'm not using the sim but still nothing... I'm at the point where I pray to God that Vodacom shuts their doors forever... I have their contracts purely coz I need it for work... I want All my money back and they are just non-chalantly taking it and not giving a flying squirrel that they are actually *****ling from me... come to think of it, I will take time off work now and find out if I can open a case of theft... the worst part of it all is IF and it is big IF I get a call from them to try and sort this out they going to expect me to give them details to sort this out... which means I have to do the work they so useless at doing... I pray the Lord sees them for the *****s and ******* they are I surely am going to voice my opinion with my employer to review business dealings with them...

Vodacom called on the 12th February 2021, I couldn't speak because I was in a meeting. I asked if they could call at 4pm. The person calling was snarky because I couldn't take the call and said he would e-mail me. I received the e-mail (***) with the subject EC-16BS-18SDCJ. Unfortunately I had work commitments and was only able to reply on the 23rd February 2021. The e-mail sent to me asked me to verify my id number and the bank name, account type, debit order date. I advised that I am not comfortable with providing my id via e-mail and that AF's POPIA wouldn't let the e-mail go out. I then checked my work commitments and proceeded to request that Vodacom calls me on Friday the 26th February 2021 at 3pm. I got a read report from my e-mail on the 23rd February 2021. Today the 26th February 2021 I waited from 3pm to 5pm and they did not call... yet the debit order goes off for a phone I cancelled last year and they continue to *****...

Lord please work your magic with these *******, I honestly don't see why I need to be dealing with all of this...

Oh and then I'm willing to bet that they will call when I am in a session and cannot talk and then act like they doing me a favor and drag this out... so Lord really please work your magic or send me a sign that I should approach exco to communicate alternative service providers
