FNB Connect Disgusting Response

For three weeks now me, I'm unable to receive nor make calls when I'm at my place (kabokweni, ePlazini kaNyalunga, Mbombela municipality) because my FNB sim card has no network, phone is showing emergency calls only. I'm only able to make or receive calls when I'm not in the area. On Monday (11 October) I decided to reach out to FNB Connect and report the problem only to receive an SMS Tuesday (12 October, 10:37 am) "FNB: I am sorry that we were unable to get hold of you regarding your complaint ***, not to worry I will reattempt to contact you again. Wednesday (13 October, 08:30 am) email "Dear Valued Customer Your General Complaint Reference Number *** been assigned to a Resolution Service consultant in FNB Connect.

How stupid of FNB 'resolution service consultant' to be trying to contact me on the very number I clearly informed you doesn't have network for three weeks now? What a shame on FNB to simply 'close' my complain when my issue is not resolve. Again, shame on your 'resolution service consultant' for referring me to connectivity trouble shoot when I've clearly indicated that as soon as I'm out of this area the sim card reconnects to the network. The problem is not the phone!! I don't restart or troubleshoot my phone before connecting when I leave this area, it connects automatically. And just so you know, this problem started three weeks ago, we didn't have it before.

I've paid for service I'm unable to use for three weeks now and when I reach out FNB gives me this bull****!!! I've lost precious time and money unable to work as an estate agent since my work depends greatly on calling and receiving calls from clients because of connectivity issues and when I inform you as the service provider you don't go out of your way to investigate and find out what is wrong with the network this side? Disgusted by your service and response.
