Terrible service - No solution in solutions department

<p>16 September I received my device - wifi router (5GB).</p> <p>I then misplaced the card with my PIN and PUK for the device I then called Vodacom to get the PUK, the consultant couldn't find it but told me he would give me a call back. I never received that call.</p> <p>I called the next day and I was told the call was not logged with technical department (23 September), the consultant said she will log a call and call me back. I never received that call. I called the next day and I was told the call was closed and the person working on it will call me Monday. I never received that call.</p> <p>I called Monday 26 September and the consultant I spoke to and her supervisor said they would escalate the matter and they would call me with feedback. I never received that call.</p> <p>I called Friday 30 September, the consultant(Mohanua) told me NOTHING was EVER done on the query. She told me she would she would call me by Monday 13h00. You guessed right, I never received that call.</p> <p>I called Monday 3 October only to be on the phone for 2hrs and still no solution. My call got cut off and needless to say the supervisor NEVER called me back.</p> <p>I'm appalled by this treatment from the company. I have never skipped a payment ever. I'm a paying client and shouldn't be subjected to such. How is it that no one is following this up?? 2 weeks of a client not being able to use a service she is paying for and the provider is not doing anything about it?! No one likes paying for something they are not using. I would like the PUK as in yesterday or else I don't see the point of this contract - I want it cancelled and all money paid to be paid back to me.</p>

I had to call customer service as my debit order day is coming up, I had to insure I wouldnt be charged for something I was unable to use due to the company (vodacom), I was told they can only move it to cash payment until it has been cancelled, I also requested for this contract to be cancelled REF: 1- ********** 7963, I spoke to Nkateko at solutions. I was then put through to Neo who was supposed to change my payment method to cash and the call got cut. An sms was sent to me and it asked if my query had been resolved, yet again i rep**** with a NO

I called back a couple of times and got no joy. I was sent from pillar to post and the phone was dropped a few times, subscriber department told me the one account cant be put on cash base payment while the rest is on cash payment, Thulagelo confirmed this cant be done, I called back to change all my numbers to cash and got reference: Pearl Engelbreght, 12h41, ********** 6. She confirmed i cancelled payment method in time and would pay cash on 15 October - debit order cancelled - we will see if this is done.

I was basically on the line for 3 hrs 30 min to get this done with being sent from one department to the other, being given the wrong information, several consultants dropping the phone in my ear, being sent to another department in the middle of a conversation.

I am highly disgusted by vodacom's appauling service,

Maggie
