Great company if you buy something online. Poor company if you are trying to return something.
This is how the events where handled:
I) On 9 Dec I phone Vodacom online to upgrade my current data package.
ii) The upgrade section told me they did not have the Ipad mini so I settled for an Samsung Tab.
iii) I received the goods on the 10 Dec.
This is the bad part as it appears that Vodacom's organization structure for returns is very complex:
iv) I found out that they did have the Ipad Mini so on the 11 Dec I phoned upgrade to cancel so I could get the Ipad Mini.
v) I did not think that they would "escalate" my request so on the 13 Dec I submitted an email. (Ref: S3-T9T2D-DEXJO)
vi) On 19 Dec I went to Canal Walk to find out why this simple request was taking so long to expedite. They told me that they would "Escalate" this to there manager and I should hopefully receive a response in the next 14 days.
I am legally within my rights to return a product within 14 days.
I have three other contracts with Vodacom which I am thinking of moving to another mobile operater if this matter is not resolve ASAP.
