Resolved Vodacom Top Up 49 S For Rmcs — registration for service without requesting such service

Verified customer Review updated:

Received an sms from RMCS at 11:09 today informing me that my cell phone number had been activated for the Vodacom Top Up 49 S for RMCS. As a result of this my Blackberry Internet Services stopped working. I immediately contacted Vodacom and the agent on the customer care line informed me that this was an RMCS/ Jet/ Edgars matter and gave me their call centre number. The first person I spoke to told me she would forward an urgent request to Admin to have my number deactivated. She took down all my details but when I requested a number for "Admin" I was informed that there was no number available, but only an email address. She also said someone would contact me as a matter of urgency. By 16:30 I had got tired of waiting so phoned the RMCS care centre again. This time a lady called Lindiwe answered and managed to ascertain that my number had been registered, despite the fact that I had never requested such a service, She said that someone would contact me tomorrow 27 March. However, this means that I will have to wait until then to be "deregistered" from something I never asked to be "registered for" in the first place!

RESOLVED

The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer's satisfaction.

    RMDS received my details via the Edcon Group. You phoned us to sell airtime and data, Edcon are billing use at R49 & R78 monthly. We haven't received anything for this????? This are fraud, you can't sell goods and never deliver or follow up if it was received. Are you willing to pay for nothing???????

    I really thought I was the only one with this problem. Apparently I owe these fake people R4000 after recieving their airtime for 3 months. My biggest concern is that vodacom know about these people yet they allow them to have access to our simcards.The best way is to leave vodacom service, it's very obvious that nobody is willing to help or take control. This is pure [censor]!!

    I was also given this top up without my consent. Tried to do a sim swap last night just to be told by vodacom that the number I thought was prepaid is now a contract number. I need to go back to prepaid. I do not know where they got my details from as the last time I had an Edgars account was about 20 years ago and the phone with the number that I am currently using was purchased at another store (non of Edcons stores). This is fustrating as I need to do the swap

    I'm appalled that this RMCS thing even still exists. I called 2 days ago as my BIS sunddenly stopped working and I found out my number had been changed to contract without any warning. I called again today and the guy says to me where's my reference number while i kept saying no one gave me a reference number. He also lied that someone tried to call me the first day I called in. Pulled my call record and proved to myself that I was right and no one had called. Does Admin even exist. This service needs to be stopped.

    I too have had tame same issues with my cell phone. I have never authorised them to convert my number from prepaid to contract. No one at the company returns your calls. To date its been a week and no one has returned my call let alone convert my number back to what it was. I am infuriate as I did not make such a request.
    PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS AS A MATTER OF URGENCY.

    This Vodacom Top Up 49 and RMCS its just total nonsense, its inconvenient people including me...my blackberry hasn't been working since Thursday and when i call the RMCS they are saying i have to wait for a call from the agent to de-register my number. I will take further actions if the agent does not call me today, because these contracts are unauthorised

    I also have the same problem, my mother had an Account at Jet store, where by she registered my cell number for them to contact her as she did not have her own. To my surprise there is airtime loaded on my cell number that I do not know where it comes from. and my mother do not know. I just ignored it as I had never signed for any airtime . I have being trying to have this none sense making contract stop with Vodacom where I obtained RMSC number, they always told me that I need to contact Jet store and make cancellation and I told them I do not have any account with Jet and requested my mother to cancel her Account with the Store. This occurred on several times when I needed to do a Sim-Swap which I have to pay for every time my Sim is damaged or lost.But even now I still receive their airtime and I don't even know where they bill it to. For Vodacom to make the sim swap they need a letter from them which they continuously asked me to send them my ID copy to release the letter, so I did, with the thought that they will stop, seeing that my mother's account is closed. I thought I was just going to let them to send me that free airtime that neither me or my mother has signed for, but now I am so tired of the free airtime I need to buy it myself and have ownership of my number. So please assist with the contact details of the authorities who this people can listen when they are told that their free airtime is no longer needed.
