Please provide a reproducible example. You just showed us the print output
for an object, claiming that it is an object of class "data.frame" which
is rather unlikely given the print output.

which produces the right result for me if `df' is a vector or a
data.frame:
df <- c(11.08, 7.08, 7.08, 6.08, 6.08, 6.08, 23.08, 32.08, 8.08, 11.08,
6.08, 13.08, 13.83, 16.83, 19.83, 8.83, 20.83, 17.83, 9.83, 20.83,
10.83, 12.83, 15.83, 11.83)
ts(df, frequency = 12, start = c(1999, 1))
ts(as.data.frame(df), frequency = 12, start = c(1999, 1))

So are we because you didn't really tell us enough about df...
