Vodacom R1000 voucher not being issued

In the past week I upgraded with Vodacom as they informed me an upgrade was due. I did the process all online and chose a package that included a P30 pro, a gt2 watch and a R1000 accessorie voucher. The phone and watch arrived about a week later, however I was told to follow a link on their website to redeem my R1000 voucher. The voucher redeeming site wants you to enter your IMEI number, but when I enter it, it says that it cannot be found on the system. I then mailed vodacom online escalations as instructed, but after 3 days I have not received any response. Today I phoned vodacom and was put through to 4 different departments after been held on the line for quite some time. The 4th department, which was after sales, informed me that they made a big mistake with the voucher so nobody gets a voucher. Essentially that R1000 which was owed to me is now lost. This is false advertising on their site, as well as *****. I will await resolution to this matter for no longer that a 5 work days, or I will make use of the consumer protection act.

Reviewer Update
Consulting made contact, agreed that they should have given me the voucher or at the least compensated me if they couldnt give me the voucher. Said she would get back to me, but a few days have no passed and didnt receive any reply again. They have closed my support ticket on their system.

Matter wasnt never resolved.
