Vodacom is a no go

Warning... Do not use Vodacom as a service provider.... I went to Vodacom for a contract of I've being with telkom for many years no prob at all... My thoughts are give Vodacom a change after they fail me many years ago...

Got to Vodacom I need a bank statement and this and that.. After I run up and down I finally busy with the contract...Then the original contract is all of a sudden not available now only the 1.3 red..Original contact was about 299 now I need to pay almost 450... The dude who help me told me I can down great any time if I'm not happy... I took the contract and after the 1ste MOnth they increase it because it's there yearly increase and I end up paying 496... I decided 2 weeks ago I going to down grade and then I only found out the are going to give me a penaltyfee 0f R1950 and then I can down grade... Keep in mind I down great for financial reasons and now I need to pay 1950 and this was not even mentioned at the Vodacom shop... According to a Vodacom customer care member AYANDA my bill for maart 1 is 199 and 1950 penalty fee... Just got a sms from Vodacom now it's still 496 and when I call I even get more surprises.. It's only 199 from 1 aor not march and the penalty fee is 2260 not 1950 because no vat was added... I'm being with telkom many year and if you need a contact do not go to Vodacom... They have to many hidden costs and they only want a sale that's it... I'll neva use Vodacom again... Most untrained staff members ....

Vodacom did come back to me and they did try to solve my problem... MEGAN the new manager from bay west contacted me and she went to the next lev to help solving my problem...Megans turn around time was excellent and she kept her word as promised... She clearly love her job and not only the job but the customers aswell..Megan and myself did come to a agreement, that I don't Want to stippilate on hello Peter, because I know people will take advantage of it... Well done to Megan for keeping a Vodacom customer happy..Clearly she deserves her new job title as manager and I wish her all the luck in the future... Once again thanks Vodacom for solving my problem...
