Cell C Doesn't want to help with sim swap

We went to Cell C to get a sim swap done for my Dad. First time in the store they told us we must phone customer care to get a sim swap done. We did phone customer care and they told us we must go to a branch because they are not allowed to do a sim swap over the phone. We went back to the Cell C store in Bethlhem. With all the papers, documents and ID of my Dad and ask again for a sim swap this time they told us that my Dad's id number is registered as a company and not an Id number on the cellphone number. Now they don't want to assist us in getting it solved so that my Dad can do a sim swap. And that happens with my Mom as well. We are always getting poor service from cell c. It is if no one want to help you with anything.

Hi Gerhard 

We apologize for the poor service you have been experiencing. A security check is mandatory for SIM swaps and ensures that the customer's accounts and services are protected against ********** use and abuse. In order to have the SIM swap processed, your dad must pass the security check.
