Waiting for the Call - 2 days later

On Friday the 10th May I did an upgrade on my line via the Vodacom website. I got a confirmation SMS and email to tell me that it had gone through successfully. At around lunch time I called the upgrades department to find out what the next step was, I was told I need to wait for a call from the sales department to confirm everything. According to the website, if one does the upgrade before 12pm that day, the deliver of the device should happen the next working day. It is not Monday the 13th May, 2 days working days have past and still no call from the sales department. I called the upgrades department again today and was told I had to wait for the call. Now it usually would not be an issue, except when I look at my proposed bill for May, I am already being billed for the new package I upgraded to. But this is not where it ends, I am now unable to buy any data or voice bundles on my current line. I was told it was due to the upgrade that was pending. I have been limited now to what I can do on my line. I want someone to please give me answers or at least give me a call to confirm the upgrade so that it can happen! I cannot keep being given this run-around, its beyond a joke really and extremely bad service.

Reviewer Update
The update on this is I still have not received my device. When a person places the order it clearly states delivery will be done the next working day if done before 12. The device arrived at the Courier on the 15 May, and is still there! I called and was told that delivery will take place on Monday or Tuesday next week, delivery MUST take place on Monday as I travel for work on a Tuesday. This has been, by far, the worst upgrade experience I have ever had.
