Pathetic service

I would give it a zero of that rating was available. I activated my roaming before leavign south African. When I arrive in the usa I can sms for a little while but then it totally stops. I receive but cannot send. I phone the call centre. A disastrous place with service levels of minus 100. The consultant cannot help because there are a million questions which r difficult to answer. If a person has multiple debit orders or more than 30 how on earth can they remember when the debit order goes out. Surely an ID number a bank account name and type and email address should work. Obviously not at vodacom. My favourite part was when she tells me to go into a vodacom store. In New York. Really. Or deactivate the roaming. Again really when I am on holiday. Needless to say I will be exploring other options to this level of patheticness. Customer service is supposed to help but I have never experienced this from vodacom

Reviewer Update
When I thought it could reach no lower it surprised me and did. If a person wants to cancel NEVER EVER go into a branch and waste time because they can cancel. Instead phone th cancellations desk and waste time there. Including getting hung up on twice. Once after holding for 30 min. And never ask to speak to a manager. Because a lowly pleb like u is not good enough to speak to a manager. Instead you can talk to a team leader. But wait...they also busy. So you can waste more time with a consultant. And dont forget your ID etc because u will have to do this everytime u call in after they hang up on you. I have been on the call for 60min and still i wait. Government departments are quicker and that's a fact. It is the height of pathetic service.
