****** Contract Telephone Number

<p>I have had a 082 number through Vodacom for the last 20+ years. In January I've learned that they've also allocated this number to another client by mistake. Up until now this have not bothered me too much - except that every now and then I cant be reached on the network, or I random person answers my call.</p> <p> </p> <p>However I tried to port network and this is where the trouble started. Since I dont "own" both numbers I cant be ported. I reported this in January and was told that they will correct the problem by assigning a new number to the other client. Since then I've made 40+ calls, got the direct email addresses of 5 Vodacom Business consultants and probably queued on the phone for 10+ hours - nobody gets past promising me to sort this out. The consultants I can mail directly simply ignore my emails.</p>

As expected, there has been no progress on this matter. I've made two more calls to customer care, with promises to call me back immediately with feedback - I've received none. Two emails to the ********** adress also went unanswered.

Its like as soon as they realise that this is a slightly more difficult case than the average "they stole my data" case they try and bury it in the hope that you will eventually give up and get a new number. Nobody wants to take responsibility!
