Simply sim swap calamity

Been with Afrihost for 2 years and been very happy. I app**** and successfully received a special from Afrihost about a year ago. In June, my son lost the sim card that came with the phone and I needed a sim swap so I logged a support ticket. <br> <br> First I was told they cant do a sim swap (aren't they part of MTN? this should be easy), I had to cancel the account and then reapply and they would adjust my billing. What I wasn't told was that I HAD to pay for speedy delivery of R99 which would be deducted from my linked account immediately (no other option) and that I needed all RICA docs when they arrived. <br> <br> Long story short, sms saying 'hope you enjoy your service', no sim card, 'credit' of the R99 to my account when I didn't give them permission to deduct in the first place, & an agent saying \Your sim was undelivered. Have a great day and please let me know if I can help with anything else!"when I still don't have the service"

Hello kimjacobs,

Thanks for taking our call earlier, sincerely sorry to hear that we've let you down like this.

As discussed, a SIM swap isn't straight forward from our end - we're still working on nailing down the logic to have it done easily. We'll have a new SIM sent to you though, we've sent you a mail to confirm the delivery details just to be sure.

You should have your new SIM by the end of this week.

Regards
The Afrihost team
