Vodacom - R3500 voucher ****

I was offered a R3500 voucher upon requesting the cancellation of my contract in August. I received the handset the same week of the upgrade however to date no voucher has been received. I have call EVERY day since the upgrade and was then told the voucher will be sent after my third debit after the upgrade. I still called every day was given numerous numbers and divisions to call. After months of follow ups and emails I was told I would receive the voucher in October by the second week. The day before the voucher was to be received I was told my number was no longer on the list to receive the voucher. I cannot explain the anxiety, frustration I am going through since I went with the upgrade. I then requested Vodacom management to listen to all the call recordings and it was proven that I was correct. The agent did not load the voucher I was to receive. I then received a call to say that they will be refunding my bank account for the R3500 that was owed to me. This was weeks ago. I have since tried following up daily since and have email their upgrades and customer department and no one knows anything and they keep transferring me all over. I have been requesting a call back and intervention from a manager and to date.... NOTHING. This is unacceptable to make my like a fool and to cause me so much stress. Furthermore, the amount of money and time spent on the calls to try and reach someone for answers. This is PATHETIC.

Reviewer Update
A lady whos' name I will not mention called and advised that she will follow up with her manager as to where my payment is as it was done 3 weeks back. She was to return my call the day I wrote my review and has not called back since. A gentleman from Vodacom HelloPeter also called the same day to apologise and said he would follow up and has not called back. I called retentions 4 times today and was not successful in reaching the lady that initially called me. I also left 3 messages and she has not returned my call. The two people I did speak to said they would escalate and get the lady to call me back. Still waiting... It is now almost the end of November and I am yet to receive my money!!!
