Vodacom lying call Centre agent

On the 23rd of August 2023, a gentleman named Cresswell called me on behalf on Vodacom to inform me that my current phone package was no longer available on the Vodacom network and that I would need to migrate packages. What they offered was not inline with my current package so I declined, only to be told I had no choice and that Vodacom would migrate me regardless. Cresswell offered me a deal to good to be true to sweeten the move- an additional 500 minutes at no cost!!!! I confirmed and reconfirmed this on the call numerous times- went over the cost and the proposed migration package. Cresswell confirmed the new to good to be true deal!!!! A free 500 minutes added on to the BS original deal at no cost to me!

Surprise surprise….. as we ended the call I was billed R500 for 500 minutes!!!! I now have a cell phone package that is of no use to me with 200 minutes a month apposed to the 800 on my original package.

I have been calling Vodacom every 2 weeks to correct this deal to what I was promised. I have been pushed from person to person, call agent to managers, all with promises to return my calls and to assist. 3 months later - still nothing.

They have gone as far as to email the parties concerned and CC mw in so we can communicate yet Ignition Group have ignored every email sent. I even went as far as to leave a negative review to which they quickly rep**** asking me to email them- I did- a week later- zero!!

When will this been resolved Vodacom and Ignition Group?

Please note this is an on going case and of someone contacts me it should be someone handling the case or someone from a management position. I can’t keep explaining the same issue to call Centre agents.
