VODACOM FIBER SERVICE

Voda**** i think is best way describe this lousy company, how they still have the lion share in South Africa i dont know. So my complaint relates to Fiber and my Honest recommendation is NEVER EVER GET FIBER FROM VODACOM. So on the 01/02/2019 me and my house mates decided to install Fiber to our rental in Fourways , the start up process as usual was awesome friendly polite service and a willingness to help was the order of the day and i was left with impression that Vodacom has turn a corner and my fiber was installed 15/02/2019 with very little hassel or fuss. Unfortunately one of the house mates made a very loud noise in an argument with her friend and we were subsequently evicted. So i moved into my own place so the above can never happen again. I made a relocation request to Vodacom on the 26th and explained my situation to them. I was quickly assured that the new area fell under Vumatel and apon selecting a package my request will be fast tracked. Then all hell broke loose after i selected my package i attached the my a copy of my ID ( the same copy i used for the original application). i was then informed that vetting will not accept my ID as it does not have a back copy (Please bare in mind that this is same copy vetting accepted when signing me up origanally). When i asked the consultant if i could not send the front and back of my drivers licence i did not get a response and then eventually i was told that vetting will only accept my ID. Finally after much up and down i get a request to kindly forward the copy of my drivers license which i did. she needed all these docs as she was handing over the Doc to vetting. i was then forwarded a quotation to be electronically signed which was done at the same time. then i received an sms saying that a 3rd party delivery partner will be in touch to do the installation. then this morning i receive another email from vetting to attach all the same docs i had sent to the consultant. We are now on the 14/03/2019 and no closer to the install than what i was when i sent the request on the 26/02/2019 and vodacom will not release me from contract either even though they billed me for the month of march knowing very well i will have NO INTERNET SERVICE. I was promised to be fast tracked which also is not happening Please can someone help me !!!!!!

You would think after 60000 negative reviews you would be experts at customer service sadly it will probably take another 60000 negative reviews before you guys take your customers seriously after all we are the reason why vodacom is so successful but I will leave you with this after my 24 months without a shadow of a doubt I will leave vodacom
