Failing to dial *120* USSD from a cell C number

I am beyond frustrated. There have been several back and forth with no resolution. I cannot connect when i dial any *120* USSD, even though i have airtime. U get an error that "an error has occurred on this transaction. Please try again later." At first I thought the problem was with the FNB ewallet access but I cannot get through to any bank USSD that starts with *120*. Clearly there is a problem my cell C simcard because my MTN sim card can dial this USSD. Since Friday, no one at cell c has been able to help me. I bought airtime several times but still was unable to connect to any bank. They are failing dismally at helping me. No one knows what to do.
