Vodacom Service

I upgraded my sons phone in October 2019 and upon looking at the invoice recently, I see that I am being charged for a handset after I was informed that the subscription is the only amount that will be charged. I still asked the gentleman who assisted me if that is the only amount that will be charged and his answer was yes. I was only informed about the one amount that still needs to be charged for the handset as that one was not paid in full yet. This was the R50 handset amount. Upon phoning on Friday ( 3/01/2019) a message was left for the gentleman who assisted me on the upgrade to contact me back. Well needles to say I have not received any phone calls. I am being charged for things as well which heaven alone knows who authorised it. Seems to me that you are being told one thing by Vodacom but yet something else is being done on your account and they just deduct it as it is on debit order. I would like to hear the recording where it was stipulated that I will pay for the subscription of a certain amount as well as the handset. When a person does phone, you get thrown from pillar to post which is frustrating on its own. Wonder how long it will take until I am being contacted and things are sorted. It is annoying that you are paying for something you are not aware of.

Well needles to say, I have not heard from Vodacom. It has been a week since I phoned and requested for the person who assisted me on the upgrade to contacted me. Great after service guys. One way to keep clients happy. The sad part is, is that I have been with them for many years.

Well after replying 6 days ago saying that a consultant will be in contact with, I am still waiting for the call. This is absolutely poor after service.

This is very sad and very disappointing. After reporting Vodacom to Hello Peter on the 8th of January 2020 and Vodacom replying that a consultant will be in contact with me, I still have had no feedback from them. I eventually phoned them on the 20th of January 2020 at 15:15, spoke to a lady by the name of Gloria and she said she will request the voice recording and it will be sent to the nearest branch which is Beacon Bay East London. She advised me she will contact me the following day by 11:30 as to when the recording will be available for me to go listen. It is the 27th of January 2020 and I have not received any phone call. I am being charged for something I don't agree with. Seems like the only way is to take this matter further. All I am asking for is proof that I agreed on the charged I am being charged for. Is that too much to ask. Are they hoping that I will just ignore this and let it go. Not likely.
