Vodacom just keeps disappointing

I was **** to and deceived into a contract at Vodacom. Being extremely disappointed, I wrote a review and received a call from Vodacom. The gentleman told me that due to the circumstances I could go and cancel my contract.

I went to the store and I was assisted by the same ****** who ******* me into the contract. He called the manager who then told me I could not cancel because there was "talk time" on the phone.

Firstly, Vodacom was aware of the talk time from the start because the first call I made was to their store to complain. Secondly, no one informed me that I could not make any calls. If I knew I would certainly have not. Lastly, I took out another cellphone contract elsewhere because I was assured by Vodacom that I could cancel this one. Another lie I guess.

Vodacom has been and continue to be an extreme inconvenience in my life.

The store advised me to bring the device the same day. I informed them that I was working and would be working non stop until monday. I arranged with the store to bring it on tuesday. When I went to the store on tuesday they said they cannot take it because it has talk time on. Now I must read a reply by the consumer website team saying I had a certain time to return the device. No one could even phone me. Something is not adding up here.
