My office gets Locked if I'm not home as my business operation deals with clothing And I have had my samples stolen before. The day a Telkom technician stole a gold wedding band out my office was 2 weeks ago. I am 31 weeks pregnant and couldn't go downstairs with the technician and explained I had a suture in my cervix and supposed to be on bedrest. I had unlocked my office for the adsl installation and explained where the area was that I presumed was the connection. He had the office to...

RE: Final Demand from Autopage Cellular Head Office received on the 22nd April, 2013 To whom it may concern On the 22nd April, 2013, I received an email of final demand from Autopage Head Office requesting payment on my account. I find it quite entertaining that none of your hard working staff had contacted nor invoiced me prior to your email pertaining to your demand; knowingly payment has been made via debit order above and beyond the monthly subscription rate of R 471.00 dated the...

After spending the whole day on the 18 April with no service, I use my ipad to check emails on the 19th. When I check my balance at 7:30, all my data, including the night surfer has zero balance. when I call them they say I used 900MB of data whithin 2 minutes in the morning and they cant explain the zero balance on night surfer. 8TA SUCKS.

The Manager at the Newcastle Mall (Kwa-Zulu Natal), is very unprofessional and has no respect for clients. I am a loyal client off vodacom for the past 17 years and such manager told me to take my business elsewhere. I needed assistance with a sim swop and only had a drivers licence as identification. He refused to assit me and was rude and unprofessional

FRAUDULENT CONTRACT! I have an 8ta contract and phone of around R417.50 p/month which my wife uses for her business (for the free landline number). During January a telephone marketer called her and she was polite enough to listen to him, but she also refused the contract he was marketing. The next bill we received in February stated that the contract has been changed to R1266.50 p/month with an addisional R1700 penalty for changing an existing contract!!! No communications or new phone, just...

I have 2 cell contracts with Vodacom. My first BB curve 9360 I got in February 2012 gave me numerous problems. I sent it in for repairs on 02.11.2012 through Hificorp. 26 days later I got my phone back,was informed that it couldnt be repaired &was replaced. I fully charged the phone before using it. 9 days later I started having same problem again regarding the battery life.I requested a replacement battery -was told I should send the phone in again.I depend on my phone for work so that wasnt...

My phone (Samsung Galaxy S2 – i9100) battery has been spontaneously draining from about 40-50% to zero. When I got the phone, I was told I need to use the Glen for any repairs/problems as it is the nearest service centre. When I first handed it in for repairs at the Glen, I was told to keep the battery & back cover of the phone. They did a software update to the Ice Cream Sandwich version but the problem persisted. Due to the Glen being too inconvenient to get to (its about 45minutes...

I’m an existing account holder with Vodacom, where I have numerous contracts with Vodacom My main account number 0721899800 was due for an upgrade and I did so on 2nd January 2013. I wanted a good phone and was willing to pay in and even increase my current contract from R135 per month to R315 per month. I took a Sony Xperia go, who has some wonderful features, I had to pay in to get the phone, which I did. A few days after I had the phone, I contacted Vodacom in Tygervalley and...

MTN does not supply NANO SIMCARDS for prepaid customers with iPhone5. They advertise LTE but can't deliver the service. What is the diff to give a Nano Sim for Contract or Pre Paid?? WAKE UP MTN!! Do you want us to go to Vodacom rather???

I am very angry with the service received from vodacom, a year ago I asked for an amount to settle my contracts I had as I wanted to pay them up a year earlier than they were due as I didn't want debt anymore, at the beginning of this year vodacom just debited an amount of my bank account without my permission, when I contacted them they said it was the amount left over after I paid up my account, the guaranteed me this wouldn't happen again, now I get an invoice e mailed to me for R912 to be...

I have wrote complaints on their websites but no reply until I wrote a complain on hello peter on the 27th Feb 2013 and the reply was that I will be contacted but till today its the 13th Day but no reply, seriously now what must I do to get help at Nashua? No one cares? Its been 13 days and I have not received any contact from Nashua till today, and in all for the incident of the report at the branch it has been 23 days, how disguising is this? I have been a client from 2009 and this year I...

I have the same complaint as many online. Vodacom have promised me an upgrade since January on my contract from top up 1000 to XXL package. THEY called me to offer me the upgrade, THEN they didn't do the upgrade. I was on month to month and was NOT tied into a contract. Now after 3 months of no upgrade CANNOT cancel the upgrade and continue with my month to month which with Vodacom's BAD service could cancel anytime. NOW I can't cancel either and I am the one bearing the enormous cost of...

On the 31st january i took my phone in for repairs and now today (1st march) my phone came back the way it was and it was not repaired. My phone is still under warranty. The lady who created the cellular repairs job card told me now that the repair people at nashua didnt fix my phone because they didnt got a ansher from me when they tried to phone me. So how can the use that as an excuse? i took my phone in cause it had a problem and they didnt loan me a phone so how can they call me on my...

18/1: After a week of phoning the Nashua Call Centre, and they don't return calls when they say they would, and holding almost every time for longer than 10 minutes, based on information they provided I might or might not get reports in an indeterminate time detailing information on billing which I dispute. Personnel I had to deal with: Peter Eillers, Sifiso Kgrapi, Roelandi Kruger, Charmaine, Elize. I have detailed dates and times of every encounter I had with them this week. The...

Made a complaint 20/02/13 and no response yet. I changed my debit order details in September 2012 I have 2 contracts with them and they have only been debiting the 1. The other is 90 days in arrears and i informed them they are liable for the cost as iu made the change in september and the didnt. now they have cut both contracts i dont have any service and they feel i must pay for a mistake made by them. If they listen they can understand the logic but they cant take ownership of their mistakes.

I am being overcharged by hundreds of rands monthly even though i can prove that I am not over using my data,but no one can help,not their call centre agents/the personell that sold me the contract.I am extremely frustrated and wish that they were as helpful as they were when selling me their product.I will never recommend them or use them ever again, so be warned!!!

I took a Sony Xperia Go phone, with Mtn. Being attracted by the phone being water resistant. Enjoying my new phone on a rainy with all the ports closed. The next day it did not switch on again, then took back to the store on the 24 November 2012, after the assessment it was deemed water damaged, and was never replaced. But I was really confused that, Mtn and Sony displayed false and misleading information to me as a customer. The product*phone* did not satisfy its intend use and would...

Telekom gate branch, is always understaffed, and there is usually one consultant that is only available,and the others are walking about aimlessly. Customers wait for long periods of time before they can be attended to.

Ihave been a vodacom user for the last ± 10 years. I recently took out a contract at Vodacom, paying R320 p/m for a BlackBerry curve 9360. I took out the contract around February/March 2012 and since then I have only had problems with the network and service of Vodacom as a service provider. The first problem is that I specifically chose the 9360 as it has the 3G option, which is must faster than the EDGE option and from day 1 I had issues with my internet/network connection. The 3G...

I upgraded my contract with cell c on 14 January 2013 and the cell phone was deliverd on 17 January 2013. That very same date i called their call center to request for a sim swap since the new cell phone came with a micro sim card. the call centre agent then escalated my request to the CELL C sim swap department and promised me that the department will call me as it at takes 24 to 48 hrs for the sim swap to be made. Then on 21 February 2013, i called them again and i also called on 22 and...

Tzaneen area Limpopo Vodacom signal not too bad but they need to increase tower capacity to accomodate more callers. Every day we phone and calls simply get disconnected ! This has been going on for months on end.I wanted to do a network swop and Vodacom wanted R8924-00 to cancel Talk 500 package! What a help! Pay up and shut up attitude !

For days now vodacoms black berry services have been down. Since I'm using my outher black berry wich is with mtn to lodge this complaint I asume the problem is with vodacom and not black berry. When one phones vodacom custemor care u are simply told the prob is ongoing sorry good buy. That helps me and my busines zip. I wil now be switching all my phones to anouther network. No use having a smart phone when u have a stupid network

For the past two years, since returning to South Africa, I have been trying to change my phone number and account into my name (from that of my parents). I've visited Vodacom Branches 10+ times and I have had to phone multiple people: Accounts, Credit, Sales Consultants, Heads of Customer etc. I've presented the same Documentation 6+ times to different people to get the Account changed into my name (Bank Account, Proof of physical address, Affidavit from Father, Mother's ID, My ID, etc.)...

I applied for a cellphone and laptop contract a month ago at MTN in Stellenbosch in the Eikestad Mall. These contracts was both approved immediately. Sadly till today I have not recieved the goods. After 2 weeks of doing the app I visited the branch to find out how far the application is since no one even bothered to notify me of the progress. I was told the laptop was not yet delivered. I visited the branch after 3 weeks twice, again I was told to just wait. No feedback give. After the...

I purchased a cellphone contract phone on October 2011 for 24 month with a cellphone warranty of 24 months for any damage on the cellphone, I started having problems with the cellphone where on the BB 9800, the front top keypads (green answering button, Menu Button, Escape Button, Red disconnection Button) got detached from the cellphone, maybe it was my fault, none the less, i used the cellphone with no problems as I knew that the warranty will not cover that, now I have a problem where the...

Vodacom's connection is very bad in The reeds area,Centurion.There is no tower nearby,and I'm still being forced to pay the monthly bill but I can't use the internet.

Complaint 1: On Sunday 30/09/2012 i was debited by CELL C for an amount of R604.29. I am NOT even a Cell C customer so how they got authorization to debit my account is beyond me. I escalated the query on 30/09/2012 where i was given a ref. number & was told to email bank statements to, which i did. On 1/10/2012 i contacted the call centre where i was told they have not received my statements because i used my call reference number as a subject and not my cell phone number, I am NOT a cell c...

Cell C know all about my complaint, no need to repeat myself again. Just to add to my complaint. Friday Afternoon I left message for CEO Mr Alan Knott-Craig, still waiting for the call to be returned. Phoned again this morning, after speaking to many different people got through to Armandu Morris. In no uncertain way tells me Mr Alan Knott-Craig wont phone me back!! Unbelievable? Believe it, I want to speak and set up meeting with Mr Nott-Craig, how difficult can that be? Cell C, I am not...

I just want to advise people to never ever ever ever take out a contract at mtn gardenroute mall george. I unfortunately did I now I'm deeply regretting it. They have the worst aftersales ever. Im paying for a phone that's more in the repair centre than it is with me and I'm getting no feedback from them whatsoever. Just phoned me once only to tell me that they don't know how the repairs are progressing. Now im stuck with my old phone. At least its not giving me any problems. Im very upset...

I had a Phone contract with Nashua mobile for 8 Years. When my last contract term expired they send me a sms. If I don’t renewed my contract it will go to Prepaid. Well since I want to move to Vodacom I left it. After 3 months they still deduct money on my debit order. I wrote them an e-mail to stop deducting money from my account they did not stop. Then I wrote them an E-Mail that they understood then they stop. Ok but now this phone is prepaid not a change. I decide to keep the number...

Upon receiving my new phone on contract I kept my "Data Usage" off as I did not want to use unneeded data and found that my phone was soft-locked every month round about the 20th, despite not using it excessively. In May 2012 I had my phone soft locked again and found that I was about R5,000.00 in debt. I did an enquiry and found that it was mostly for 12 gig of data used by my phone in March...on 1 day!!! To make a long story short, after lodging several formal disputes - some with the...

I game online and its frustrating that i can't even log in. i had to get another contract from another network and am paying for a useless Vodacom one as well.i have emailed as well as called the customer care line.they were very rude and all i hear is that they are working on...

I did a sim swop on Sunday as my sim was damaged, the call centre agent was quite rude and after repeatedly answering her question as to why i wanted a swop - simply the card was damaged she was insistently irritating me and was reluctant to assist. I promptly hung up and called back - this consultant was not arrogant but did the procedure and after following her instruction, it is now Wednesday and still no service - they didn't even offer to take an alternate contact number or email address...

It is over one year now that I have paid a registration fee and for products from PCG telecoms, trading also as Smarttelecoms from 3 Abrey Road, Sanyati Park Office 1 Aloe Building and Office 3 & 4 h Block (Sanyati Park). After multiple calls and promises of refund or supply of goods purchased I still have not received anything. The company have gone beyond a bad service and has reached a level of robbery. I would seriously urge anybody not to trade with this business. Hello Peter has many...

Good afternoon I sincerely hope that you will help me because I do not know where to go anymore, or what to do next. In December 2011 I took out a new contract with 8ta and was supposed to get a new handset too. The day I got the handset, it would not switch on, and a person in the shop told me the phone must first warm up because it's a touchscreen phone. The next day it still would not work, and I took it back. They would not replace it because the technician had to look at it...

My phone got stolen at the end of June. (I took out insurance form Auto page.) After completing all the necessary documentation – including the insurance claim, I still today (8th of August 2012) do not have a replacement phone. Firstly the insurance company said they did not have receive the documentation – after I sent it numerous times. Then the claim was not processed. I had to follow up several times for the insurance claim to be processed. It was then liaised with me that I can...

I upgraded my contract and got a phone and a SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB 10.1 P7500. I decided to take VODACOM INSURANCE only on the TAB. the first 2 months i was charged double on my insurance i let that be because they said they will pay me back. Eventually 4-6 months later i received the funds. but that's not the problem! unfortunately during this time i dropped the TAB and the screen cracked, so i went to vodacare in Hatfield and they gave me a report saying its beyond economical repair and i...

Date: 30th July 2012 Dear Autopage Customer Service, My concern is very simple. I paid cash and RICA'd a Neotel cordless phone from your Bluff Towers outlet on the 26th of July 2012, just 4 days ago. I chose the prepaid option, being strongly averse to contracts. This unit was for my wife. I did not open and activate the unit, your salesman did so, against my wishes, in the potential prospect that this situation may arise. My wife does not like the handset and tiny screen and text, so I...

26 July 2012 I AM VERY ANGRY! I NEED YOU TO SORT THIS OUT, NOW! On the 20th of June 2012 I went into the Alberton Telkom branch and spoke to the 8ta consultant on duty and I changed my bank details for the debit order. The 2nd of July 2012, 8ta still debited my old account, the debit was returned as unpaid and I was charged an unpaid fee of R115. I went and deposited the R199 into your ABSA account and proceeded to fax the proof of payment to you to 2 different numbers on the...

I stay 10 km from the Vodacom tower. My signal jumps from 1 to 3 all the time during a conversation. Then what does "not allowed" mean. And network busy has been going on for 20 years. A sms I have send at 3pm only gets delivered at 1am the next morning and this can cause a life of a family member. Come to our town and run a meeting with all our farmers. They will find out what unhappy farmers can do. Does Vodacom know about farm attacks? Do they know that we need our cell phones for the...
