Vodacom Red VIP - technical support

Vodacom Red VIP - hailed as a "Premium Service" - yeah right.... I am dealing with a technical Cellphone reception issue in my area. Vodacom has installed a direct aerial on my house and a signal booster inside the house, which worked very well until last Feb this year. I have lodged a service call on 26 Feb to inspect and investigate the issue - which will require that technician comes to my house and checks the items installed. Reference number given, all good. No visit, no change. I call some time later to follow up as there is still no change, only to be told that the reference number closed because the issue was "solved". Far from it though - blatant lie. I then re-lodge a service call for the same issue. I am promised that it has been "escalated" and it will be physically attended to within 24 to 48 hours. Now, several days and several calls later still nothing has happened other than I have been told that the issue has been "resolved". Pathetic Service - stay away from this company!!!!

If you had read my complaint, you would not have sent me an automated issue, that exactly highlights the problem with Vodacom, now would you have?

And a further 6 days to reply.... Whilst ZERO effort is being made to alleviate problem resulting from a technical issue. Referring to the message from Vodacom above: My initial complaint was about inactivity and inept problem solving skills from your technical department. To have read and commented on my original complaint, would you have sent a further reply SIX days later? You as an organisation are giving yourself bad marks here. I do not look for "nice" messages, I need the problem solved. None of the above has in any way contributed to that. I repeat the Ref. No.: A9-NNPO-LKTL.

Dear Vodacom Website service team:

I have received your generic non specific response as above. As well as having rep**** to it. It appears no-one has attempted to even read my comment. The situation remains unchanged. No attempt in rectifying the situation has been made. Vodacom service centre: guys, please go and get another job, because clearly this one is too hard for you.

Extremely disappointed...
