Vodacom overcharging no assistance

I recently took out a contract with Vodacom and everything went fine until I got a call from there call Centre advising me that they were moving away from SMS and that they would convert this to airtime. I was very upfront and told the consultant that the phone contracts was taking out for my daughters and that I did not want any additional charges. He advised me it was a straight swop. Two months down the line I noticed I was being charged and additional R350 for my contract. I called the all Centre and they advised me that my contract was migrated to another one and they would revert it back. When I received my bill no changes was done I called in again and another consultant advised me that nothing was done and he would resolve this. My bill came the following month and nothing was done. I called again but was still overcharged. Finally someone assisted but advised me he could not change the bill and I would be overcharged again.The next month I was o recharged with R75 and I decided to go into the shop I took the contracts. I was told that they had not migrated me to my original package as there was a promotion when I took it out and the chances I would get my money back was near 0. She logged a call and they have overcharged me again. Last time I will be dealing with this company they are a bunch of tbieves

Just wanted to give a follow up on this got a mail from vodacom sending me the same 1400 bill and a reduce bill of 1200 they did not even read my mails correctly. That my original contract was under R1200. I requested the voice recording for when the guy migrated my account funny.No answer. No one is talking about refunding me as well. Should have looked into the company before taking out these 2 contracts.
My suggestion which I will be following is to log a complaint with the National Consumer commission. They have a Form - Complaint 71(1) this company is a *******...
