***** via Vodacom: Cellphone Contract created Online and Awarded by Vodacom with no confirmation and background Check!!

Reference number is EC-1MHT-2UVSMV - recieved 01/12/2023 I Qaasim Charles discovered my bank account was Debited by R2301,44 on 30 November 2023. I inquired this 30/11/2023 at the Vodacom Branch at Century City Mall in Cape Town.

The consultant checked and told me a contract was opened on my name 05/10/2023. This was done online! I followed all the steps as instructed: Police affidavit with 3 signatures and my id copy. This I submitted to Vodacom on the 01/12/2024. ***** was confirmed by Vodacom ***** Department only on 15/12/2024. After I sent 4 emails to ***** Department to pay me my money because I needed it urgently, they rep**** and advised that the refund was posted on 20/12/2023. This week I have mailed the ***** Department x2 saying the refund must be paid before 10/01/2023 and it still wasn't paid!!

Now there is some random person walking out there with a brand new NOTE 12 PRO XIOMI cellphone! I wish there was a -0 star that I could click. I am sitting here and waiting on Vodacom to take there own sweet time to return my money to me!! This really set me back and I should be payed extra, for I had to find a way to pay people I owed money to. I am waiting 1 more day then next stop is Ombudsman!!!

Dear Vodacom,

I hope I am not chatting to an Automated response machine. So I waited for a consultant to make contact with me yesterday and there was no email nor a phone call!!!

Also, the cryptic response to my Hello Peter post says that I will be "contacted in due course". As I described in the detailed post, my refund is overdue!!!! Your lack of commitment to say when I will be contacted just shows the lack of urgency to people who are victims of Fr aud!!!!! The refund was not payed to this minute of this post!! The 7 to 14days of the refund being posted is over! Pay the refund!!!!!

Vodacom consumer website team: Contact your Frau d department and make them pay the overdue refund today!!!
