Unable to cancel my Vodacom contract

My 2-year Vodacom contract ended in 2021, and has been month to month since then.

Due to the inability to use my current phone with the Vodacom service, I wanted to convert the service to prepaid so that I could move to another service provider that would work with my device.

I called the Vodacom cancellations department on December 6, 2022 to arrange to cancel my contract, and they confirmed this would be completed by 12/31.

I called back on January 2, 2023 as the line on my account was still showing as in contract. The representative from the cancellations department confirmed that the cancellation was unsuccessful, and that they would initiate the cancellation again, which would be complete by January 31 and that I would get a credit for the extra billing.

It’s now February 10, 2023 and the line is still showing in contract and I’ve been billed in full, with no credit for Vodacom’s error.
