Vodacom just never seems to surprise me anymore!!!

Ugh...what can I say...Vodacom stuffed up my upgrade last year...redid my upgrade earlier this year and again stuffed it up......wonderful. So, beginning this month I got a call from a gentleman wanting to beta my deal that I have by decreasing my monthly charge, increasing data and calling time and then he said he wanted to incl a new phone....the phone aint part of a new contract either. Just a add on from his side to sweeten the deal...I kinda saw this as softening the target lol it worked and I agreed to lower monthly bill with extra data, call and phone. I have not heard or received new phone since then. Yesterday I received a msg saying "your application has been placed on hold" and then requests new bank statements, payslips etc....why? I did not apply for a new application, it was an update on existing contract and phone was an add on made by the gentlemen that call me. Not an extra contract. Im sooooo annoyed with Vodacom its not funny anymore. So hoped that they would now finally fix the upgrade to match the contract I had before they stuffed it up. But NOOOOO...lets just deceive her once again with empty promises and hidden finer details of updates and promises made. Ugh....def need to change subscriber.

Really? lol ****...when Im getting msg's saying application has been placed on hold since last Friday, and received a call icw above noted situation as well....you cant say its a ****. The call I received yesterday from CT offices, ***, and the lady that called confirmed all details on the system icw upgrade op package and the free Nokia 1.4 and she said that she'll escalate the situation and try to get the gentleman that I spoke to in the beginning to contact me. The gentleman's name is Samua....I jotted it down on my desk pad with details of upgrade and phone model, but hearing someone's name and writing it down correctly can be different afterwards. Check yesterdays call ref ***

Good day
Yes the relevant dept called me last week Thursday morning. The gentlemen said he'll escalate the matter/investigation, and once he has listened to the recording of the call, he can make a decision and will then phone me back.
That was the last I received contact. Nothing has been solved as yet. Will keep you posted.
