Rude and Unprofessional VODACOM Call Centre

Got a call yesterday advising I can reduce my packages - which was well received and I was very grateful for.

After agreeing to some of the changes I was advised that they will need to deliver (in next 3 to 7 days) a date "****le" (router) for one of the packages.

I informed them that I would be travelling internationally from this Thursday for a week and asked that they only arrange delivery from Friday 25th.

I then received a call from someone else this afternoon (paused a virtual meeting I was on to take it; As with most call centres - as there are so many - I didn't register the name or the company) asking if I had cancelled todays delivery.

A bit surprised, I said no I hadn't and that I wasn't made aware to expect delivery today.

I was asked if they could come tomorrow, but as I am travelling (for a week) I said no they can only deliver next Friday (25th).

The response I get is well we cant hold it that long so I will cancel the delivery, to which I say they cant cancel it as its due as part of my package and they must not make their problems my problems and make a plan to deliver next Friday.

The call centre lady says "Please note this call is being recorded. I cant help you next Friday. It isn't my problem and I am not continuing with this call" and proceeds to put the phone down!

Seriously Vodacom. This is what you employ as customer service?

How many years I have been loyal to you and how much money have you made off me and my multiple lines we have on contract with you?!

Absolutely disgusted on multiple fronts!

Don't know why my reply has stars in it for the word ****le (which I have always referred to as a mobile WiFi router - perhaps swayed from different terminologies for it across the markets I travel to and operate in)
