Fibre network
Its over a year having the fibre network and yes we had down time, but this last month there were more down time since April 2020 in our area (Evander Phase3).
This is unacceptable service that we are paying for and making working from impossible during this time of Covid-19. On top we get communication late and we do not get any updates during downtime.
Please sort out this issue.
Desired outcome: Secured reliable fibre network
Line switch
Since the 23rd of July i have been in contact with numerous people from vodacom, my account is in arrears so i made a payment plan and asked for my service to be put back on pay as you go, i was told that this would be done, if i have made 25 phone calls it is too little if i have sent 10 emails it is too little, i received an sms to say that my issue had been resolved and that the case was closed, but still i cannot use my phone, i have been trying to find a job to pay vodacom but i need my phone to do so but vodacom doesnt give a damn
Desired outcome: i need to be able to use my phone as pay as you go
My number being deleted without any notice
My number was deleted from vodacom without any notice i used this number for more than 30 years i made payment arrangments with them i paid the amount .and after wards they told me that my is deleted .when its comes to this issue vodacom has a very poor service
Service
I am in your Menlyn Mall repair shop. There are customers coming in without their temperature checked and protocols followed
I had to complete an electronic version which is correct.
Yet the next 2 customers walked in without any of the above
I am reporting this
Desired outcome: Phone me
Bad service
My mother applied for a cellphone contract from Vodacom in Umtata Bt Ngebs from a consultant who's name I won't mention until I speak to the management last week Thursday. I applied for an iPhone 11, they called me the following week Tuesday to tell me that there was no iPhone 11 stock even from the hardware which was fine and understandable so I restarted my contract and picked an iPhone 12, which was promised to be delivered within end of the week because it was available, I kept receiving inconsistent calls about the color availability from white to green to green to white up until I ended up going for any color which was available, because vodacom consultants are so inconsistent with their communication, they mislead you up until you feel as if you won't be paying for the product that you ordered. They called me upon the arrival of the new stock for iPhones and told me it's available, I called in again and tried to explain to them that my mom was going to be unable to go there and sign because she was busy, a consultant that spoke to me said I can therefore go alone with a letter signed by my mom, when I got there, the consultant that attended to my call was not acknowledging what she had said, infact no one was and they wouldn't give me the phone unless my mom comes to sign, the costs! The traveling cost my mother had to make for me to go to vodacom because I was misled were not attended, my time, the time I took to go to vodacom was not acknowledged and worse part is I have to go back to Cape town with my phone, I'm a student and all my university work is on a phone, a phone which I don't have. The consultant then promised to deliver the phone on Saturday which was the next day, I left because I was angry knowing that she was lying to my face because vodacom does not do deliveries on weekends, I wanted to see what was going to be her excuse, she called this morning saying she can't leave the store today because there is only two consultants so she can't come, so does that mean my services, my mom's services will not be rendered because there are certain customers that are more important than other's? Is that what she meant? I've never in my life experienced such poor service yet I'd have to pay for it, I don't understand honestly and I need answers because I'm very agitated with the service that I recieved.
Desired outcome: Phone to be delivered!
Vodacom Fibre
I was contacted to apply for the Vodacom Fibre internet service in my area. I was approved and recieved my Vodacom wifi router 2 weeks later after complaining to RAM about delayed delivery. I am now waiting for 23 days since receiving my approval for my installation. After numerous emails and attempts to call the Vodacom call centre my call was answered by a gentleman by the name of Kyle. Who could only advise me that my order is lying with the installation teams and I will unfortunately have to wait for their call for an appointment to be arranged for the installation. Vodacom does not keep to their set turnaround times and don't even have the decency to notify their customers about the reasons for the delays. Frustrated unhappy don't want their service anymore but don't have a choice customer.
Desired outcome: I just need my installation and activation done, please..
Dont stress... They make promises on turnaround times just to make you happy and take it. They promised my Migration would take 72 hours, im sitting on 2 weeks today since i sent them the signed quote and still nothing, im still waiting patiently after numerous attempts to find out how long still... Apparatly its "back office"
Nosipho was rude
I spoke to Nosipho 18H30 today, she was very rude. It is very fustrating to speak to a consultant who does not know anything about customer support. She does not even give you a chance to explain yourself all she does it talk back and asking vague questions.
I was not happy with the level of disrepect and someone who lack skill to communicate accordingly with customers. She is very rude and I wont allow someone to disrespect me like that. She might think she is doing me a favour but delivering support but in a nutshell she need us to keep her job. Even after telling her that I am going to report this she showed no remorse and kept quite for about 5 min on my expense, my time waiting for her to help. What got to me was when she breath so heavily and asking me that am I done. Imagine the level of disrespect
Fibre installation
Ref: SR210525/629829
WE HAVE REPORTED THE ISSUE MULTIPLE TIMES AND TO DATE HAVE NOT RECEIVED FEEDBACK OR ANY UPDATES.
The installation was done POORLY.
We have emailed photos.
Wires was left loose on the ground and on top of the roof.
URGENT RESPONSE WILL BE
APPRECIATED.
We have children here and the loose wires is a security risk.
The sprinkler system was also damaged during the installation.

Fiber
My vodacom Fiber has been cut off wrongfully.
Since 16 July 2021 i have been calling vodacom twice every day to have my network restored. On 22 July 2021 i recieved an email for cancelation of my contract. I then called them again to understand why i have received this email! Apparently i logged a cancellation of my contract on 6 July 2021.
This is incorrect!
Now a week later i still do not have internet and i am informed to wait another 2 to 3 days to process the cancelation reversal!
Desired outcome: No outcome
Device Cover
Last Year early July I tried to take a device cover with Vodacom since I had a Sim only account with them however the device cover was declined and then in August 2020 I realised that my monthly amount has increased I then went through my Vodacom statement only to find out that I have an active device cover when I called vodacom they referred me to Finrite, Finrite told me I do not have an active insurance I told them I saw that I was paying for it on my Vodacom account I was then advised that it will be canceled later around October 2020 the issue wasn't resolved I called again I was told it will be canceled again and I will be credited all the amount back to my Vodacom account, and then nothing like that happen around March 2021 I was furious I called and then I had an argument with the agent she then managed to cancel it received all the messages and then I was again advised that I will be credited back to my Vodacom account within the next 30days after 40days I called and asked why haven't I been credited they said they had a backlog
In April 2021 I was still paying for the device cover and worse part they went on my bank and debited the amount again I called I was told it was a system error and I wanted an explanation on how did that happen because it was canceled I am still waiting to be credited I was told that on the application was reactivated probably it was also a system error even today I am still paying for something that was declined
Contact phone
On the verge on canceling this contract with vodacom. It's been 2 months into. It, and already I'm experiencing hell! Called in to switch my debit order and nothing and now they want to make the arrears issues my issues, I need this resolved ASAP! Tried to apply for something, I'm told. I'm listed by vodacom after no one even tried calling me from vodacom I called them to assist me debit order switched told them they need to follow up because my dad was sick at the time I was in and out of hospital and he passed away of Covid last week I cannot be dealing with that and the incompetency of vodacom staff I need this fixed
Vodacom fibre
Vodacom fibre customer service is utterly useless. I have called numerous times to get my internet up and running for 2 weeks since installation but nothing...they seem to be utterly clueless as time why my internet is down, No explanation its just 'escalation' after escalation. I constantly have to be calling and asking whats happening and the team leader who guaranteed that my internet will be up and running by eod today has not delivered. Im extremely agitated, my bill is even running for something that is not functioning...
Fibre

Its been offline since 11 July and after calling their customer service the guy told me it had to be activated again. So i had to wait 24 hours. Nothing so i called again must wait 24 hours again. On Fryday 16 July i tried again. The lady told me i must stop calling they dit log a fault and must wait till Monday. Se forward a printout of the data that was used but that was not even 2 gig. They cant tell me what happened to the 100 gig. Monday she phone me back to tell me because it was weekend nobody could attend to it and they will call me again
Still waiting.
Fibre SR [protected]
Fibre has been down from the 09 July 2021, i have since logged a call and keep getting the same response day in day out that it has been escalated and they can only send an email. I have asked numerous times to speak to senior person but I have yet to hear from them. The only response is that they will credit my account, are you going to credit the additional data that i load on my mobile devices? My son is missing school due to the incompetence of Vodacom.
Desired outcome: Fix my line or Cancel my services
Vodacom fibre service
Since 9 July I reported a faulty internet connection. None of the resolutions methods of call centre worked. Then they started promising me that my request SR210709812537 will be escalated to the next level. Every day since 9 July I have been phoning 0821904 with somebody promising me that they will call me back - it never happens. And when it does they tell me that hey escalted it and that person will phone
Unacceptable
I am having the same issue, same date that my fibre went down.
since then I have been waiting for someone to call me.
Fibre - SR210709-811196
My fibre has been off since the 9th. Today marks my 6th day without internet.
I have phoned everyday and everyday I am being told that they are struggling to get through to the technicians. I am also told by Michael Daniel's that he will phone me and let me know on the state of things which he never does. I can't explain how frustrating this is!
Can someone please help me? I have a business to run
Desired outcome: Get a technician to look into my problem
Plan
Utterly disgusted by Vodacom. After being a loyal customer for over 15 years, they are misleading customers and stealing their money. I have been contacted by them telling me that they know it's hard times and they want to help their customers. They migrated me to another plan and assured me that I will be saving money. Where I always paid R840, I will be paying R669. The consultant assured me that I will only pay the R669 and will therefore save money. After receiving my new bill, I will be paying R1049. How is that saving? The consultant never informed me about the handset fee that isn't included in the R669, after I asked him if the whole amount I will be paying is R669, as I know there are always hidden costs. He assured me that I will only pay R669. He also said the I have 30 days to go back to my old plan. Now I have to pay a penalty fee of over R500 to go back to my old package, a mistake made by their consultant by not giving me all the information. And they refuse to take me back to my old package. I cannot afford the new bill. They misled me and don't want to fix their mistake. So now I have to pay for their mistakes.
Desired outcome: I want to go back to my old package.
Fibre Complain
Seems almost pointless sending a complaint after reading the previous complaints of customers.And all done in vain, as clearly, its the same despicable service.I am waiting for 2 months after fibre was installed, yet no activation done, yet Vodacom happily debits me.I probably have spoken to every single technical specialist, all of which promise to call back and never do.Sent an email to the complaints department, Hammy was sorting the issue out apparently, then never heard from him as well.Sadly, this is the worst company to place your fibre needs with.Terribly regretful for choosing Vodacom who clearly have lost the plot.
I really hope you will get or atleast got assistance by now, i was only complaining about two weeks not getting service, and im going through hell with them, looks like i have to plan to wait another six weeks. How pathetic😱 Fibre service, if their internet was on, they will never be as fast as a 5mb line, which is the weakest 😂😂 a 5mb would be like The Flash to them
Sim card swapped
Today I got the call of imposters as Vodacom agent, I received a message and later my number was offline.

Desired outcome: return my number to network ASAP
