Vodacom *****

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the unauthorized reactivation of my fiber line and an unexpected debit of R1100.00 that was made to my account on 20/12/2024. This situation is deeply concerning, and I am seeking immediate resolution.

To provide a clear timeline of events:

May 2023: I requested a line transfer. June 2023: I received confirmation that my account was closed, and since that time, there were no debit orders, and the line remained inactive. 20/12/2024: A debit of R1100.00 was processed, and upon contacting the call center, I was informed that my fiber line had been reactivated under my name in December 2024. I was not made aware of this reactivation, nor did I consent to it. After further communication with Siphosethu Cele from the cancellation team on 22/12/2024, I was advised that I would be required to pay for the full 24-month contract, despite never consenting to the reactivation or entering into any agreement for a 24-month contract.

I am requesting the following:

Immediate cancellation of the reactivated line. A reversal of the R1100.00 charge. Confirmation that no further debits will be made from my account, as I did not consent to the reactivation or contract. Please escalate this issue to the relevant department and provide me with a prompt resolution. I expect to hear from you within 48 hours regarding the status of my request.

Should this matter not be resolved to my satisfaction, I will be forced to consider escalating it to regulatory bodies.

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.

Sincerely,

0
