5g data depletion in one day!
I have a serious complaint regarding my data usage this week from Vodacom. Please see below sequence of events together with supporting screenshots.
On Monday, 16 July 2019
- 13:11, I received an sms that i have less than 3353 MB left
- 15:26, I received an sms that i have less than 1343 MB left
- 15:33, I received an sms that i have less than 323MB left
- 15:36, I received an sms that i have less than 128MB left
- 15:38, I received an sms that my data has depleted.
On Wednesday, 17 July 2019
- 17:45, I purchased 2G data bundle.
- 18:25, I received an sms that I have less than 1014 MB left
- 18:58, I received an sms that i have less than 400 MB left
On Wednesday, 17 July 2019
- 21:05, I subsequently called Vodacom to query this and was told that applications that use my mobile data are causing this. I have had the same phone, with the same applications running for the past year, my cellphone behaviour was no different this week. So i do not want to hear any excuses about my phone's applications. This excuse is not good enough for me.
I requested further escalation last night to which i received a reference number: [protected].
On Thursday, 18 July 2019
10:56, I receive an sms that my query has been closed and that my data usage is accurate. I am then told as a good gesture I have been credited with 1GB data bundle. What a joke!
This is not good enough! I would like my full data bundles to be refunded!
repairs/insurance
I am very unhappy with the service I got when I had to get my Iphone 6 fixed.
I went to the Vodacom Shop in Hazyview. I asked the onsite technician whether the screen could be fixed. He firstly looked at it and said its fine, there is nothing wrong with it. I told him it fell, it was so badly cracked that I couldn't even answer it and pieces of glass fell out... He then saw what I was referring to. He then told me "go the Indian's upstairs" to which I replied that no "I have insurance and you will send my phone to a repair shop" I decided to ignore him and see a consultant.
She then called the manager and he advised that we complete all the forms etc. This was the 19th of June. At this stage my Sim in-tray was not in the phone as I had taken my sim out and forgot it on a counter top at home. Never once was I advised by the manager or the consultant that it had to be with the phone.
Two weeks later I had still not heard a word from Vodacom and my job no kept stating "in transit" when I tracked it on the website. Only After I had phoned the Hazyview Branch and the manager followed up with the service centre it was discovered that my phone was sent back to Hazyview and lay in a drawer of the consultant that I booked it in with - not even locked away. It was sent back because the IMEI number couldn't be traced without the sim in tray - although it is clearly written on the back and that they require Proof of payment - the Phone was a Vodacom upgrade, I would expect Vodacom to be able to see that... but never the less. This was late in the afternoon just before closing time so I only managed to go to Vodacom the next day.
So myself and a friend went to the shop the next day in lunch time and took the sim in-tray to the Shop, once again I had to recomplete all the forms etc.
Once again - zero communication from Vodacom. After I traced my job card - which displayed that my screen could be repaired for R4828.85 I had to phone the customer care line and ask why was my insurance claim not processed? This was at about 08:00 pm so I had to wait till the next morning to speak to anyone from Vodacom that could actually assist me. I phoned Insurance and I was advised that the claim was not sent through. I phoned Hazyview and Hussein assured me it was the Nelspruit Repair Centre's fault. I phoned the Nelspruit repairs Centre and was transferred to the person that deals with the claims - who for the entire time didn't answer here phone, it has a voice mail box but you also can't leave a voice mail because the mail box is full.
Finally after phoning insurance/Vodacom Hazyview etc 10 times my claim was processed. I was then phoned by someone and told that my options are: 1 a new as good device For R750 or a new device at an access of 20% of the new phone's value. I downloaded my policy as per the attached from the Vodacom Website that shows my phone is insured for R195.00 per month at a value of R12 000. However you have debiting my account with R196.71?
Regardless of that... my policy also shows that if I have my phone replaced my access is 15%?
I still don't actually understand what I paid almost R10 000 - roughly R9600 for the past four years for to have the worst service and then to top it off I am expected to replace my phone with a device of R6300's worth of Value and then also pay an access of R1300? This doesn't make any sense financially.
I have been a Vodacom client for more than 11 Years and I have never missed a debit order. Being treated so badly is just terrible and its shocking!
You have been deducting the wrong amount of my account according to my policy and then at first the phone could be fixed, then all of a sudden once the insurance was processed it couldn't be fixed and I have to pay all sort of additional amounts for a lessor amount than what I am "insured" for which is R12000.
I want someone to sort out this mess TODAY.
This is unacceptable. Vodacom is quick to sell contracts and nag me for an upgrade and sell insurance but when it comes to keeping your word and honoring an agreement, the service is horrific.

new contract - arrogant and unhelpful staff including team leaders
Both arrogance and lack of customer services is clearly an obvious behaviour issue within the vodacom group. I applied for a NEW contract online which was approved - all i was waiting for was for the device to be delivered to me. After waiting 5 days i checked my order tracking on the website and saw that no delivery was attempted due to not full delivery address available - this just peed me off - i completed this information, reiterated it when i was called by vodacom, yet the information was never forwarded to the courier company. I then called again on Monday gave my address details for the 6th time and was told delivery would take place within 3 -5 working days, again another delay. When i checked my order status yesterday i saw that the package was returned to sender. How? firstly .. i wasnt even contacted to confirm delivery, when i called at 8:26 this morning once again i was assisted by the most famous arrogant and clearly unknowledgeable staff - who mind you sounds as if they are working in a factory - it is so noisy and rowdy - i think most of the time the agents cant even hear themselves speaking. I was told by the agent sorry she cant do anything ?! new customer - i then asked to speak to the team leader who was Curtis Green who advised me he would find out what how to rectify the matter and he would call me - at 12 i called him and his excuse was "uhmm sorry i was busy with other queries" er NO I'm not interested in anything eslse that you are busy with. I am a brand spanking new customer to your business and this is the treatment i'm getting. Curtis told me that he would call me back in 30 mins, that was nearly 2 hours ago. I am so disgusted in the lack of service - it's appalling that in this day and age new business is important -
I lodged a service report 3 times already with the last month and no one has bothered contacting me.
My service was suspended and then rectified and now my account still shows in arrears and I cannot open another line due to that.
Everyone keeps telling me 7 working days and it's now a over a month.
I took out insurance but because they double debited which they didn't inform me of I cancelled and they put my account into arrears. But I called straight away and I was told it was canceled. Now Noone has bother helping me. I'm fed up and looking for a way out or looking to speak to higher management.
All my calls were recorded as stated and I want my account rectified otherwise I'm taking my business elsewhere.
lapsing date on my vodacom contract
I took my Vodacom contract in January 2017 for a period of 2 years of which it was supposed to expire end of January 2019. My account was in arrears for 8 months and i sorted it out in June 2019. I checked the expiry date of my contract and a message was sent to me indicating that my contract period ends on 14 May 2021. Now it is like Vodacom wants me to pay this contract for a term of 5 years which is amount to unlawful enrichment by Vodacom. I made a follow up telephonically on checking the expiring date of my contract so i can terminate any deals with Vodacom.
I need this matter to be investigated thoroughly and for Vodacom to update their systems accordingly.

non collection of contract, incompetent staff and extra charges
Hi There
Please see communication below,
I have been sent from pillar to post by Vodacom,
On 18 June I received a cellphone deal ordered via online.
Don't have the details of 1st person I spoke to at your Online department on 20Jun to advise that I am not taking the contract and it must be collected (the box is still sealed)
Think it was Suze
I was told that it will take a week or two for the couriers to collect.
On 3 July, I called online again and spoke to Amelia.
She checked the system and advise that it was booked for Ram to collect and it will happen soon.
On 11 July, I called again and spoke to Shannon, she again checked the system and advised that it will be collected soon.
I insisted to have a time frame, but she kept on saying it will be collected soon.
I asked for customer care details as I was not happy with the slow response,
As per communication below, I sent a mail on 11 July and then received the feedback yesterday (as per communication below)
I called After Sales this morning,
Was cut off twice (spoke to Tasha/Sasha and Aubrey)
Then got through to Innocence, she advised that she is unable to assist because her department don't deal with returns older than 2 weeks and I need to call Retention @ 082 1958.
I spoke to Nomtando at Retention who advised that they only deal with contract cancellations and I have to call After Sales again.
Have advised that After Sales don't want to assist and she suggested I ask for Supervisor.
I then called AfterSales again and Lebrino advised he will assist.
He advised that Ram couriers will collect within 3-5 days - by Tue, 23July the latest.
Then I need to call on the 26th again (or he will try to call) for the cancellation and refund.
My complaint is:
• Why has the Online Department not followed the correct procedures - different people all gave me the same incorrect information for 3 weeks while I was already invoiced and debit order deducted for extra cost.
• How do I know that the parcel will be collected by RAM on Tue, 23 July as communicated by Lebrino
• When will the refund for June and July be processed?
• Will I be invoiced for August as well?
• Will I be refunded interest on the money debited off my account because no action taken when I called the 1st time?
Suggest that your staff be trained before they start dealing with the customers.
This causes extra time, frustrations, cost and inconvenience for your customers.
Kind Regards
Susanna Barnard

Good Day
I have been waiting 3 weeks for Vodacom to arrange collection of delivery of unwanted online order I placed.
Please see communication below for the original online order that was delivered on 18 June'19
I contacted the Vodacom on 20 June19 to advise that the person who I wanted to give the contract will not be taking it.
The box was not opened yet and they said it will be collected.
It is now 3 weeks later and 3 calls with long holding time, the box was still not collected.
When I called earlier, I was told it will be collected soon, but unable to advise when it will be collected.
&
I have been invoiced for this and now has to pay for something not being used, even when you credit me, I will have to wait another month for the credit. That is if you will credit me.
You can track the details on my ID number [protected] or my main cell number [protected]. (also attached my ID for verification)
Your customer care number 083135 is not adding any value either, when I call the number, it gives me my billing information when I press "0"
Please need the following:
• Arrange for parcel to be collected in 48 hours
• Reverse all extra cost for this order from my account in 48 hours

cellphone contract
I have had contracts with Vodacom for the past 13 years and my mom had a contact for me before that. I have always been with them. I am very upset! They are a disappointment. 4 years ago we cancelled my husbands contract as I had a 2 contract on my name. We had so much trouble cancelling the contract that came to an end and ended up reversing and stopping all Debit orders. When he wanted to get another contract for my daughter, they rejected him due to owing for a contract we had cancelled many times. Now the same happened again. I called to cancel 1 contract in May 2019 as I could have upgraded in Feb 2019. We do not use the number at all for the past year. They then notified me the contract will end only in July 2019. Last Debit order 6/7/19. I agreed to that and on the 9th of July I called again to confirm about the last payment and that the contract is now closed. Just to be told it only end in Sept 2019. I wasn't happy and said that I have time dates etc of previous call and I will reverse cancel all Debit orders following. He said he spoke to supervisor that agreed that last debit order was 6/7/19 and contract is closed. I receive an email today with an invoice due for 31/7/19. Where I call Vodacom again just to hear that my last Debit order is 31/7/19. I ask to speak to some1 that I can complain to. Just to be put on hold and the call ended. I WILL never refer some1 to Vodacom again and I will not pay another sent. Will change all my accounts a of today to another service provider!
new contract phone
I applied for a new contract phone online and chose the smart top Up xs+ in April, which was going to be R269 p/m. At the end of May I paid my installment without any problems. Months after that my installment has increased and to date (July) I have to pay a thousand something. I contacted the call centre and they tell me that it was a mistake on their side and for me to change I have to pay R800. Please assist. Contact me on [protected] or email [protected]@gmail.com
new cell phone contract
On the 8th of July 2019 I signed a new cellphone contract with your branch at Loch Logan in Bloemfontein. As I wanted to keep my old number, which was already released by Cell C, I had to wait until the next morning before activating.
As today, 8 days later, I still had no luck in activating my number although I was promised on numerous occasions that it will be ready in minutes for activating .
On Saturday I drove 300km again to your branch at Loch Logan without any sucsess.
All answer that I get is that the system tells them Busy processing Porting.
Is that normal to wait more than a week for service? Is this the service that I can expect from Vodacom in the future?
I had to put a lot of my work on hold, afraid that my current old phone will be deacitivated while on business.
Please help

sales/technical
I have been having on going problems with my pre paid Vodacom number [protected]. For some unknown reason my pre paid sim sees not registered on the network. Today I bought a new sim from the local cafe, but could not get through to Vodacom Customer Care. I went to Vodacom Eastgate, and asked for help. The sales lady advised that the sim I bought from the cafe was not riccard and therefor I must buy a new sim from her for R20. I found this very strange as not long ago I also bought a new sim from the same local cafe, called Vodacom Customer Care and they did a sim swop in no time. I then asked the sales lady to get Vodacom Customer Care on the line, but the agent advised I failed the security questions and therefore I must by a new sim from the Vodashop. The lady sold me a new sim and registered the sim on her computor at Vodacom Eastgate without asking any identification or security questions? I had also called Vodacom to assist with apps being installed unusually on my phone and was advised to go to a Vodashop as they will assist without any cost implication, but once again Vodacom Eastgate refused to assist me and told me I must book the phone in. I think the service and personal protection from Vodacom is shocking.
cell phone number
hi, i have been using my vodacom number for more than 10years on prepaid then i took a data package which a consultant had called me and advised it was for 12 months. after 12months complete i thought my contract is over as no one had explained the terms fully that i need to send a letter of cancellation even thou i was told term is only 12months. my number would get blocked and reinstated after this 12months until my number was deleted and i was advised it is not possible to get the number back. its been a year having to explain to clients as to why i have a whatsapp number different from my current number :-(. now to my surprise my number exsists again assisgned to someone else but i had been told there is no way to ever get this number back . Vodacom has really failed us as we luv the Company but the service we receive is very bad. i am sure my number could have been assisgned back to me even if they had advised for a extra cost i would have paid as i have lost alot of clients and i now want my number back as this lady has been using my number for a few weeks now. please assist and give me back my number
no signal
on monday eve our signal went out, phoned in and logged a dispute, received a reference nr, last night, it happened again, this eve too... and it usually only get signal again at approximately 10 o clock tomorrow morning. this is an emergency phone, which is unreachable. we in cradock is tired of this poor service delivery it needs to be adressed and it needs to be rectified asap
3g upgrades - unethical behaviour
I performed my upgrade early in the first week of July 2019.
I have had to phone in twice to check up on my delivery as no-one from Vodacom has bothered to keep me up to date. I phone in this morning, almost 2 weeks later, to be told that they have no stock. No one makes contact with me to tell me this. They believe that to keep you waiting in anticipation and not keeping you informed is the right thing to do. I have a been a Vodacom customer for 25 years and this is how I am treated. I am a so called Red Customer. I don't know what that means. Apparently it means that they can and will provide you with astonishingly bad service.
Absolutely Poor, Poor, Poor... I have since cancelled my upgrade and will be cancelling everything with Vodacom in due course. I will not tolerate ignorance nor Nonchalant attitudes. I am so disgusted with Vodacom.
data contract
I'm so unhappy with vodacom, I took 24 months data contract in April 2017 but I'm stll paying even today worse part is I was paying R308 but this past months I'm paying R527 . So I expect contracts to be a fixed amount but now it fluctuate and they don't even communicate to tell me why, they are making my life difficult and I will never trust vodacom again
router number 0761479691
I got a call towards the end of June, I was offered a router and promised to get 15GB any time and 5GB night time.
I received prorated data of 2.4 GB, I hardly used for 1 hour the data was depleted. I was informed that I can return within 14days of receiving the item. I contacted Vodacom on the 29 of June to cancel, was told that RAM will collect in the next 5 working days. I received no communication until Thursday the 4th of July. I called Vodacom to find out what happened. Apparently, there was no request logged by Vodacom to Ram to collect. they only logged after receiving my call. I was promised that it will be collected the next day. nothing happened. I contacted Ram yesterday morning the 8th of July, they assured yet again that it will be collected yesterday. I called yet again just before 4pm, I was then told that the collection was cancelled by Vodacom and they referred me back to Vodacom, so I called them. according to Vodacom the cancellation was done by Ram. Vodacom promised to call me this morning to confirm. still nothing. I have been using Vodacom for years, I have never came across this poor service. I am disappointed, in fact disappointed its an understatement.
I would appreciate if Vodacom can do the right thing and make sure that this router gets collected as promised.
no service received at head office polokwane
I am trying to get my international calls activated on [protected] since 2018. Several letters was also sent so the office at mall of the north. After yet another visit to the mall of the north branch, i was told to visit the vodacom head office in biccard street, polokwane. I explained my query to 3 different people and they eventually told me to wait for the receptionist. I waited for 15 minutes for the receptionist to arrive to explain everything all over to her. She was very unhelpful. She then received a phone call which she answered and proceed to have the conversation with the caller while i was standing in front of her without making any effort to place the call on hold or let the caller know she has a customer in front of her which she needed to attend to. I left the office while she was on the call.

opening a new contract with vodacom on the samsung s10 and s10e promo
Yesterday, 7 July 2019 I went to Vodacom Clearwater Mall store to take up a contract with Vodacom as I was interested in the Samsung S10 and S10e dual deal. When the sales person at the shop tried to process this he got an error message on the system and couldn't process my application further. The error message referred to the fact that my account was still open and not closed off by Vodacom on my number [protected] hence another account couldn't be opened. The reason for this was because I previously had a contract with Vodacom that I cancelled more than a year ago. The sales person at Vodacom Clearwater couldn't resolve this without this error uplifted by the acquisition team, whom where off at the time I was at the shop. This morning, 8 July 2019 I went to the Vodacom world in Midrand, ticket number B15 and they advised I get Clearwater to get this resolved by contacting the relevant call center team and process the order/application as it was on the system still. I have now called the vodacom accounts division twice this morning and spoke to Diakeseng who disconnected me after making me to hold on more than 20mins whilst she got advice from her team. The second call was with another male who pretended to not hear me when the line was crystal clear on my end. I need this resolved urgently please as I currently don't have a phone. I need my previous account closed off and this new promo activated. landline you can reach me on [protected]. This is becoming ridiculous.
they would not tell me which phones there are
4 days ago I called vodacom upgrade and sales and the consoultant I talked to a cindy she then said she wil email me all the phones there are but it has almost been 4 days that I am waiting for the email and also why can I not get the phone I want is it so hard to just order a phone or something please people be better I do not want to waist my money or I have to switch to another network? Please help me...
I called vodacom to ask about upgrades but the pgone I want vodacom doe not have and I do not understand that if I want a phone like that I want that phone because my heart is set on it then she said she will email me the phones there is, and it is almost 3 days that I am wainting now please help why can I not get the phone I want?

bad manager
To whom it may concern
I went into the Vodacom Pinelands store on 19 June 2019 to get some advice on taking a contract out for my daughter. Jovana told us about some options, after some consideration we decided to take the contract out.
Jovana was going through the cost, so I asked the manager Yumna, why certain things were being charged for extra as cell c and mtn don't charged. Well his answer was that it was vodacom policy. But the way he said it was with such attitude, treating me as the customer as some dumb idiot. When I looked back him, he just rolled his eyes at me. I turned to Jovana and said he had abit of attitude, she just looked at me. Never once did Jiovana say anything about him.
The manager, the gentleman kept staring at me and my daughter which made us feel so uncomfortable while we were trying to take out the contract.
I went back to the store 20 June 2019 to finish signing the deal, only to find out the Manager had informed Jovana that I came back into the store yesterday afternoon and complained about her bad attitude / work ethic and his horrible attitude. This is complete lie, and I'm incredibly angry that he has lied about this. I'm highly offended that he has done and said this. And find this unacceptable that a manager can manipulate a situation like this for his own advantage. If I wanted to complain about his attitude I would have gone straight to head office and not directly to him.
I would like to request video footage from your store cameras showing me in store complaining. Which I know you won't be able to produce as it's all lies.
Jovana has done nothing wrong. In fact she has given us the most amazing service. She was so thorough, and explained everything in detail. I would highly recommend her. I cannot fault Jovana in any way. In fact I think she needs to be rewarded and thanked for excellent service. She is definitely a valued employee for Vodacom. There should be more sales people like her.
I find your manager to be Self-centred, manipulive, arrogant thinking with lack of empathy and consideration for other people and in need for his own admiration.
Your manager needs to be more trained in people / customers skills. And also needs to know how to treat his staff members with respect. If you treat staff with respect you get respect back.
As for his lies about me, I would like Vodacom to take disciplinary action against him. If Vodacom doesn't take disciplinary action I will need to contact my attorney and get legal advice against him for defamation of character.
I will be willing to testify in a hearing that the manager lied about me coming back into the store and that I got fantastic service from Jovana.
I am also requesting feedback regarding all of the above.
Also your as per your message to me, Colleen your customer relations manager has made no contact with me. This is a complete lie and I want a copy of this recording that she called me. Get the Regional Manager of the Western Cape to make contact with ASAP
