Vodacom is committing *****

I should have never allowed them to retain me as a customer once my contract had ended. They had convinced me via an agent named Vanessa Naidoo. She had assured me that this was a great deal and that they only offer it to select customers who they wish to retain. However, data still goes missing (Google search the My Broadband article titled - "Millions worth of data disappearing from two operators in South Africa" - one of them is indeed Vodacom). And the agreed upon price of the WiFi package is not being adhered to, as Vodacom has decided to just increase the price from what was agreed upon, and there was no agreement thereto when I was offered this deal to be retained as a client. Furthermore, I had explicitly explained that the debit date should be changed and they did not comply with my wish, as the incorrect debit date is still being used, thereby sending my account into arrears and impacting my credit score this month. I advise no one to deal with Vodacom as they are the worse and have call center agents who are rude and trained to lie to you, just to acquire you as a paying customer and get commission. I will be taking this matter to the Ombudsman.

Thank you for the feedback. However, when I had asked your agent Vanessa Naidoo whether the prices are subject to change, she did not inform me of such. Furthermore, you she had stated that my debit date would be changed, and that if I was not happy with the service, that I could opt out. You response to simply show me a clause is not acceptable and an insufficient response. This still also does not explain my missing data. This is *****.

Are you hard of reading or are you just going to ignore my response? This is why I will keep on posting about the ***** that Vodacom commits because you'll convinced me to stay on with you'll and had made several promises, only to rob me again. I will never use this service again and I am going to lodge a complaint with the ombundsman.
