VOX IS THE WORST 2

So my last complaint was deleted and still no call from VOX - be very careful using this company - they are the worst service provider in South Africa.... Delete this post as well VOX ... I will continue to complain about your bad service

Still no call, or response - 1 Star - 5198 (83%) I think this says everything, holding my email and domain hostage is not the way to treat someone that has been a client for 9+ Years .. remember that. When I start with social media that will be my point of no return. I can get 100 service providers, but you will battle to get one of my friends or contacts to request or use your service.

So much for calling back, you people are a pathetic excuse for a service provider, I tried to call at my expense and was kept on hold for 13 min ..... I suppose you think this is also the right thing to do?????? *** - CALL ME IT URGENT

UPDATE: So after me trying to call accounts department 4 times and being kept on hold for close to 15 min, I gave up... got a call at 1:30 + - from a person identified on True caller as Dante, i explained the situation from beginning to today. ... constantly asking 'Do you think this is appropriate treatment for a client that has been with you for 9 years" and constantly getting the same reply "No" .. then at the end i told her that i would give them until day end to stop holding my emails and Vumatel account hostage, following this I will resort to social media to try get results. It is now 6:08pm .. from 4:48pm I tried calling this Dante number with no reply. I was told she would speak to her manager and get back to me, this never happened. So to anyone reading this. contemplating the use of VOX as a supplier please rethink this option, much better more friendly, better service suppliers out there.
My email is still of and I have no idea how many events I have lost, clients have been calling me to say they tried to send me emails but they bounced back, I have spent close to 210,000 rand with VOX over the 9 years... and this is the thanks I get, looks like I am off to Facebook to balance things out, i will get as many people as possible to avoid VOX even if it cost me to boost the posts, I am tired of these bullies

Update;
Another morning and still no call from VOX, I have started a post on Facebook and got a reply that they will follow up my request, VOX do not look after ex or existing clients, after everything they have done they still want me to give 1 month notice for this disgusting service that cost me R11,000 in looses on the first incident. The promise of "CALLING BACK" has not happened - please look me up on Facebook - follow my interaction with VOX and feel free to add your experience. 10am ... they do not care about reputation

So to follow up, I got a call from accounts department stating that I have to give a full months notice on my cancellation, to start with this entire situation was started over a R35.00 administration fee that they said would be debited at the end of the month

“We have updated Your Service Request, number VOX***2. The updated comment to your request is as follows: Good day,
Thank you for the payment received.
Payment has been allocated accordingly.
There was a short payment for the admin fee billed.
Please advise if we should reactivate your debit order back on account and we can debit the small balance with the next installment” I rep**** PERFECT 4 days later I was cut off on my emails, I contacted the accounts and they told me it was an automated system and I needed to pay the R35.35 administration fee to get the emails back on, I did this instantly and sent POP, I was then told I have to wait 24 hours to get my service activated. In this time I lost R11,000 in revenue due to not being able to respond to clients in time. I told the accounts that I will be removing all my services from them with immediate effect as they had gone against the recommendation on the Nazeer Nash email. Today I got told that my account is in the arrears and will only be released once paid (this is now the 1 month cancellation fee) .. I have paid them close to R210,000 over a 9 year period, I will not pay another cent. And until my line – email is released I will continue to complain on social media until they have stopped with the bully tactics

So I am back with another VOX complaint, just when I thought it was all behind me I start getting a request to pay for the last month of zero use of my internet.

The original dispute was over a R35-00 administration bill, I was told via email “Don’t worry about paying this, we will add it to month end bill”

I left it an mid month my internet / emails were cut. I called the accounts department and asked why, they said “You owe us R35-00, that’s why’ .. When I informed them of the month end message I was told pay it now because there is nothing we can do until paid” I did an instant payment and called back, I was then told “You have to wait 48hours for the line and emails to be re-instated. I was waiting for an email confirming an event for close to R11,000. The event organizer only had my email and had to go with another company when I could not reply.

I removed all R4,900 worth of internet business from VOX, following this they would not release my emails again, not release my domain and other services I paid for were kept hostage.

I refused to pay another cent to VOX .. now I am getting threatening messages that unless I pay the cancellation fee they are going to BLACKLIST me … all this over a R35-00 administration fee.

I have told the VOX accounts person that called me today that I will once again start with a social media onslaught on every page I am administering, that totals close to 60,000 people.

So my message to VOX is … remove the threat, send me a written apology and admit that you are not owed anything. I was a client for many years, paying in the excess of R4000 per month, I am sure you can’t afford to lose anymore clients … I am waiting.
