Unreliable money makers

<p>I opened up a brand new contract with Vodacom, was so excited as i have been wanting the new Huawei. An agent called and we completed the application.. However did not inform me that my account was going to be debited within 72 hours. I had no funds in my account so the debit order was reversed. it then charged me a fee of R115.00 which I brought up with Vodacom accounts and their excuse is that they could not pick it up on their side. I send through my personal bank statement from which they were debiting to show it was taken off. Sent it to ********** and ********** which the call centre provided me with. 3 weeks later and i still have not received help with it. On the 3rd July i was debited with a penalty fee which i am not liable for and Vodacom will not refund the penalty fee back. I have requested them to collect the device and cancel the contract as i phoned within the 14 day return policy. Called the call centre numerous times to receive either disgusting service and attitude or they would put the phone down on me. I want all my money back that you have taken from me!!! R115.00 as well as the R307.00 that you debited 3 days ago! Very angry and disgusted in your service.</p>

Reviewer Update

Good Day

Your online chat and call centre service is utterly shocking and disappointing. I am constantly having to phone and follow up with Vodacom people and no one ever comes back.

Andile who I was speaking to on the online chat does not assist me, I must constantly call someone else to get an answer. Last week Thursday (29/06/2017) I requested the after sales to collect the device and cancel my contract as it was within the 14 day return policy. I am still waiting to find out whether RAM will be collecting it today as I want my money back as well as both penalty fees that I was charged as it was not my fault the agent who assisted me did not advise I was going to be debited within 72 hours. I am very angry and will take this matter to court if you people do not refund my full amount and have this device collected as well as the contract cancelled.
