Data contract

[Irene van rooyen]

I took out a data contract almost 2 years ago, but 7 months ago when I tried to open a new contract I was denied! Never missed a payment though - so do l confront Vodacom or change service providers.

You should ask them WHY you were denied, they have to tell you.

You should also check your credit profiles. Maybe you have a negative listing for something else.

Like the others have said, you might have in the interim got a bad listing on your credit profile from another company. Normally the system will have a reason code as to why the application was denied. Be it returned debit orders on your Vodacom account or a listing on TransUnion or Experian.
