Vodacom shocking service!

I might as well post some feedback.

So, I broke my screen on my Nokia 6500 Classic, so I went to Gateway VodaCare to get it fixed, R350, I thought, no problem because Pavilion quoted R1000, 2nd time I sent it in to get the cover replaced, R400, then they said the battery was dead and a mechanical failure, extra R100 or they won't fix it, ok, fine, now, I get it back, won't switch on, take it back after 6 or so days to get it fixed, they quoted me and I said NO,  they said fine, we will sort it out ( from the manager ) , I got a SMS to say it ready so go collect it, send my boet to get it, paper work says "Not Repaired", my brother says fine, I will pick it up tomorrow when it is fixed. We go there, the guy that you fetch your deliveries from goes to fetch, it not ready, get the manager on the phone, "Oh, I am sorry, I am on my way home", my dad goes mental and says " You will turn back now", anyways, I am stuck with an Nokia E65 as a loan phone, I will abuse this phone to make them pay, so, wanted to write this to let you guys know that their service is shocking and I STRONGLY recommend you don't go there.

Thanks

Re: Vodacom shocking service!

Mtn is worse. my phone got water damage some how and they  told it was "economically unrepairable" and that the phone is effed. So after looking to buy a new phone, i say stuff it and get my old phone back. Friend of mine told me to put the phone in some rice in a sealed container and leave it over night. i did that, left it for 24hours, and the phone is magically working. How's that for bad service? they MAKE you waste your money.

Re: Vodacom shocking service!

Here's some good advice. If your phone breaks in any way whatso-ever, throw it in the bin. Its ALWAYS more economical to replace the phone. Its not Vodacom's fault, its just the way it is. Shit happens.

Been with them for 10 years plus and never had bad service.

Wel, I ain't exactly a multi-millionare so I can't throw away and buy a new one, that phone is like R3000, they dont make them because they are so good, I have a phone that like 2-3 times the price so now they will hurry up. CorneN, when are you on xFire?

Ones as bad as the other, just ask to speak to their managers, they're there to serve YOU, not treat you like sh!t. So what if you ruin their lives, they're ruining their own lives by being sh!tty towards customers.
