Vodacom Account *****

<p>An account was opened on my name and ID number and set to debit my account. When i saw the first debit i reversed it and lodged a complaint with vodacom in August 2015, they asked me to send an afidavit and i did. In December of the same year i phoned to track the progress on the matter and was asked to send the same documents, and i did. A year later the matter is not resolved. I phoned their customer care and it seems no one is able to assist. I started a online chat and chatted for a while with Arthur and then with Mpho, they were not able to give solution. </p> <p>Hi Mahlomula Gumede. Welcome to Vodacom's Online Chat.</p> <p>Arthur, a Chat_Accounts consultant, has joined the conversation.</p> <p>Mahlomula Gumede: I have a query</p> <p>Arthur: Hi there</p> <p>Mahlomula Gumede: Account : ********** 4 was opened **********ly using my details.</p> <p>Arthur: Okay please give me your ID number</p> <p>Mahlomula Gumede: ********** 640088</p> <p>Arthur: Thank you.
