Global roaming refund

JQ
Level 2
Level 2
No one from TPG seems to be able to provide a clear understanding of how the global roaming refund will be returned to me.
I have emails from multiple representatives from TPG, who all provide a different answer - extremely disappointing.
Have asked for the matter to be escalated to a manager and simply no response.
 
Extract from my most recent email to TPG:
Based on the emails I have (from multiple TPG representatives on this matter). I have been advised:
  • my service is scheduled to end on 19 August 2020
  • the roaming credit will be credited into my account (after 30 days from deactivation) due on 18 August 2020
  • the credit will be to my online TPG account and NOT to my credit card
  • but upon service ending (19 Aug), I will no longer be able to access my account online TPG account to arrange transfer of funds to my own bank account
  • so basically, I have 1 business day between the time I'm expecting the credit into my online TPG account to access and transfer the funds to my bank, otherwise I won't be able to access my online TPG after the service ends on 19 Aug

Dear Customer,

Thank you for your response.

Please be advised that the roaming credit will not be credited into your account after 30 days thus it will be credited to your TPG account.

Please be informed that once the credit is on your TPG account that's the time we can refund it back to you.

Kindly note that the 30th day will be on 18/08/2020.

Please let us know if you have other concerns.
