Repeated *****, Differing Amounts ... No Resolution

<p>I am at my wits end with Vodacom. All I need to know is why there is an amount of R4912.00 appearing on my credit report from Vodacom. </p> <p>As per the conversation that I have had with their legal department this morning, the first account was "***** proven" in 2015 already, and the amount on that account was over R17000. The second account, they can't tell me the amount as it has already been handed over to debt collectors. </p> <p>The debt collectors are asking me for R3474.93 on this second account. (By the way, this is also a ********** account, which I am sorting out with them - and I didn't appreciate Vodacom's legal department acting like I am a **** and trying to upset me even further). </p> <p>So where does the amount of R4912 come from that is appearing on my name? Literally noone at Vodacom can tell me and I have spent over a week of my own time and energy trying to resolve this. </p>

Reviewer Update

2 days later, and I have done more to resolve this the consultant who you put me in touch with.

I now have at least found out what account is appearing on my credit report (no thanks to Vodacom), and suprise-surprise, it was the first account which I was told had been "***** - confirmed" in 2015 and was "accidentally handed over to debt collectors". I suppose you also "accidentally" reported me to the credit bureau?

Now that I have cleared this up, I need to know WHEN my name will be cleared, and I need a LETTER or some form of correspondence that I can use in the meantime to show that it is an error.

I have already spoken to your legal department, and been in email correspondence with your customer service agent. Neither of these departments can help me TODAY. I need this today because I am applying for a home loan and I need to submit my documents this afternoon.

I have been trying to resolve this matter since Monday 3 July 2017, and have a full correspondence trail of everything that I have done to try and resolve this. I didn't just wake up this morning and decide that I need to resolve this today. I have gone out of my way to investigate this because you have been bs-ing me for days now.

All I need is one simple letter, and an answer.
