On the 3rd Feb 2020, I went into the Hout Bay Cell C branch to cancel my contract, the reason for cancelation was because Cell C had suspended data contracts in Hout Bay due to a tower issue.

The manager who assisted me was Luke, who I have since found out was fired due to negligence.

It seems Luke never sent off the cancellation documentation to head office & my account continues to be debited every month.

I have been back to the store multiple times to try & sort out the issue but nothing can be done without the original cancellation form which there is no record of.

There is proof that there has not been any usage on our side since Feb 2020, and yet we are still debited every month.

I eventually had to block the debit order but we are still being billed & this will eventually lead to me being black listed.

So I had a two phone contracts with cell c years ago.
Then I was handed over to the nimble group, I called them and they have no record of me but on my credit file it says nimble group.

Called your cell c call centre, and their agents warent helpful at all.

Can someone just call me on [protected].
I really want to settle this two accounts but how do I do that ? If both cell c and nimble are not helping.

On the 28th of February 2021 I requested Cell C to cancel my contract as I was way out of my contract agreement with Cell C. I requested a cancellation letter

On the 23rd of March I once again phoned for a cancellation letter.

On the 26th of April I once again asked for the letter and I was told that an amount of R233 was outstanding for online subscriptions and I queried that again as I never had online subscriptions. I was informed that they will query that and will get back to me.

Today, I received a notification that I was listed for an outstanding amount of R6032 rand, nobody know where to transfer my call to and I was given 3 different attorney names which I contacted and nobody has a file on my name.

I googled Cell C legal number (as the wrong number that does not exist been given to me from the call center side) I dialed the google number and also does not exist, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Where de hek must you go and who in this world can explain to me where this amount is coming from...

I have contacted the call centre numerous times to address this issue. Got reference numbers but nothing is done about it. Yet another debit order went of my account. I have reversed these debit orders for 3 months now. This is ridiculous and this is affecting my credit profile. Fraudulant Celc nr [protected]. See attached reference numbers. Contact me on [protected]. Mr Blackley

I purchased cell phone sumsang ultra s21 that was on promotion with sumsung A31 at cell c through contact. They did not deliver and when I enquired they said the promotion is finished and if I'm still interested I should take another promotion of sumsung ultra s21 that was included A32 sumsung. They took time to deliver and upon delivery I called cell c to arrange to take their phone back as I was no longer interested in the contract, since then I have been waiting for courier from cell c to collect their cell phone as it will be debit time on the 31st of May 2021.please assist

Since I had a cellphone contract with cellc I have been paying my account up to date up until lock down caused a struggle I went to cell c store to make payment arrangements then my account was handed over. I have managed to pay the account in full last year december. Then I requested for a paidup letter in january till today I have not recieved the paidup letter these nothing I didnt do to get the letter. I called the collectors to ask if I still owe them? They said no. When I go to cellc stored to ask for the letter they said I owe cellc r1400. Which I paid it to the collectors. Now im stuck and helpless because of cellc. When they were calling me to collect they were harrasing me calling everyday even when I just made payment yesterday they would call me to harrase me that my account is in arreas why is that so?

Sir / Madam

I have a fully paid up zero balance c fibre account and you guys listed me with ITC. Please kindly advise as call transfers to your legal department do not go through. How do I contact the legal department?
Please kindly sort this out ...

I went into the Cell C Branch at Somerset Mall on the 22 of Feburary 2021, After a month I went back to them as I didnt get any updates about my phone "Huawei P LIte" IMEI nr [protected]. The gentleman at the shop said that they will follow up. After a week I went in to Cell C again and the staff didnt want me to go in and that I have to wait outside the Branch allthough the 1 gentleman wasnt busy with a client. 2 weeks later they phone my husband to come and collect the Device but nothing was done about it. They just say its not them i need to phone Hollard insurance. I phoned hollard on the 25th of April and they informed that i need to pay an access fee of R300 and that I did, I struggle to get the proof by Hollard Insurance as I send it +- 5 times to "[protected]@deviceinsurance.co.za and they cant see the payment. I am very furstrated and I want this sorted out as soon as possilbe please.

Your urgent attention to this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Your urgent attenion in the ab

I have done an upgrade on the 26th of Jan and the cellphone was delivered without the sim card. I got suprised end of the month when my account was debited for both old contract and new deal. I called cell C to get a better understanding of what was really happening. I was told that the debit order is for an older and new contract. am so pissed off coz everytime when you call you are promised to be sorted out in 48hours. I waited for my enquiries to be addressed in 48 hours as promised. Cell C only got back to me in April while they are busy debiting me twice for the sim they haven't delivered.

Then in April 6th, I called I was advised to cancel and convert my older contract to prepaid to avoid double billing. The lady advised me to call on the 6th of May to do a number change (sim swap) from the new deal to the older sim so that all benefits from Jan to date can be credited onto my number. Oooh guess what I called for hours and on the second call the agent took a phone and put it aside and started talking and laughing on the other side for 35 minutes. I ended up dropping the phone. I called again and requested to talk to higher management. I spoke to Victor (Team Leader) who assured me that cell c will definitely contact me within 48hours to resolve the matter. Huuuh xem Since the 6th May I have been waiting for the said call but Cell C is nowhere to be found. They just enjoy taking our monies but they don't wanna provide service.

I wrote on Hello Peter on the 11th May hoping that I will get some attention but still no one is resolving the issue. My next action will be Twitter because I can't continue paying double debit orders for nothing

I Will SEEK A LEGAL TEAM.

I PAY R2000 Every Month on 5 Lines for the last 14 Months.
The last 3 Months 3 OF MY NUMBERS have no Signal
Cant receive Calls cant make calls signal drops day in day out.
I work for myself i have lost out on Thousands of Rand's not being able
to Make contacts with clients . You Turn your back on me Cellc

I was advised to Change the Settings on my Cellc Devices i did that and now 10 Weeks Later Still having the Same problem. Your Service is is the worst by Far. And most clients will just accept the outcome. And as A company you Know most clients will give up the fight. In my case i wont give up and ill make a point of this to make sure i give you guys back what you gave me

I need your legal departments Number and email.

Wooooow am not alone on this situation with cell c as from 2018 I have been trying n trying no response or follow up from cell c while they put my life on standstill

I have received proof that my account is paid up to date yet when I phone Cell c and they say I have been handed over, this has been going on since January, I am frustrated that the debit orders have come off my account but I have no service. I paid cash up to the end of my contract R3400, so why is my phone still blocked!
I have phoned and emailed [protected]@ssda.co.za and they tell me they have no record of me being handed over.

On 23 April 2021 I received my upgrade device after I waited a month. When inserting my old nano sim card it stated not registered, upon instruction from Cell C I did sim swop. Up until now with several emails to cell c I still can't make or receive calls. Absolutely pathetic. My reference [protected] is still not resolved. I've tried everything.

Since September 2020, I've been engaging Cell C on my arrears account. Asking that the cancel the contract as it was already over the 24 month period and allowing me to pay off the outstanding amount.

They have suspended the account and still bills me for each month which increases the amount owed. I've also requested the debit order to stop so I can do monthly EFT payments. Over the last 7 months I've had different answers to my questions.

The issue I have is that no matter if I pay off the outstanding amount, it will not decrease due to them still billing me each month.

Here are 3 reference numbers I could find:

Good Day,

I renewed my contract at Cell C N1 City branch on 02/12/20. The lady that assisted me, Danica, is no longer working at the branch. I asked her to insure the phone immediately and she said it was not necessary as I still have a month to do so.

She also assured me that there will be accessories available within a month, but to date, there is still nothing to protect the phone. The same branch did put a gel cover on about a month ago, but that was so full of bubbles and they took it off on Sunday 3/5/21. Not even offering to replace that.

There is absolutely nothing they can do because the phone if over the month it had to be insured. In the meantime it has fallen and the glass cracked in the one corner.

I feel that it is not my fault it is was not insured as I did ask her to insure it before I left the store upon renewing the contract.

The phone keeps switching on and off, gets very hot at the back and gives some notification message that the USB being used is not compatible with the phone, even though there is no USB plugged in at all.

At the store on 3/4/21, they told me it was the charger which was faulty and I had to buy a new charger. The new charger would not work on my phone and the shop assistant said I must take his charger as it seems to work on my phone. So, that is R299.00 paid for a second hand charger.

I urgently need to know what can be done to get this matter resolved. At the present moment I feel that the phone needs to be replaced because I was misled with the insurance and also the accessories which is not on the market. There is still 1 year and 7 months left on the new contract and it is unfair that I pay for something which is busy packing up. The phone is busy switching on and off the whole time.

Your urgent attention will be much appreciated. I can be contacted on the cell number mentioned above. I do have four contracts with Cell C and have been with you for years now. Don't you think I should be getting better service regarding the phone.

Thank you
Anna Marinda du Plessis

Good afternoon,

Kindly see attached SMS from Cell C cancelation department dated 11 March 2021 after my conversation finalizing the contract termination telephonically for data SIM [protected].

I'm a pensioner and found it totally annoying and upsetting that my debit order at ABSA Bank is still not stopped for this contract. I respectfully request that this matter gets closer at once as it is affecting my health and finance.

Your sincerely

Mr M.L Venter

For the past 2 months Cell C has not debited my monthly installments due to some billing issue on their end.

Even though the admit the problem is on their end, they still insisted I Call my bank to confirm if anything has change. I provided the with an official account confirmation letter from the bank.

For 2 weeks straight I have been battle for them to set up a once off debit order so they can get paid, to no avail. In addition to all of this I receive constant phone calls an SMS`s telling me my account is in arrears.

On Friday the 30th of April 2021, I finally got hold of someone promises made still did not call me back.

See email below:

Hi Martha

I have attached my FNB account confirmation.
Definitely not an FNB issue.

So kindly escalate, I need cell c to confirm this issue has not affected my Credit Rating. Also I would like to be reimbursed for the inconvenience.
Confirmation in writing acknowledging the issue is on Cell C`s end.
Also how Cell C intends compensating me for the inconvenience.

A guarantee that this issue is now resolved, debit orders will run as per normal.
An explanation of what each contract costs me each month.
It also seems that I will be paying more than 700 p/m for all contracts I informed that my total will not exceed 700

Failing all of the above I will be cancelling all Cell C contracts.
Also will not be paying a cent.
I am disgusted by the way this is being handled.
This is not directed at you personally, if you could please just direct it to some in a position able to action my request.

Regards
W Isaacs

I called this individual a few times on Friday evening she eventually got someone to answer and say this phone is not hers, when that number is on the email signature.

[censored]

To top it all there are issues with the contract, even thought by balance enquiry says I have 0 minutes I can still call so does this mean I am no longer on top up or Cell C just upped the limit.

In closing Cell C wants to pay all outstanding fees, not my fault. The including late penalty then I need to log a dispute to get my money back.
