NEW CONTRACT DISCONNECTED WITHOUT VALID REASON

<p>A month ago I re-newed my cellphone contract with MTN service provider at MTN Savannah Mall store. Yesterday being 8 March 2017 my service was interrupted. I went to the MTN Store at Savannah Mall in Polokwane and was told that my current SIM card which I received a month ago was cancelled due to a swim swap that was done on my phone number. I never made this request nor did I apply for a SIM Swap. A new sim card was given to me with a sim swap. I was told that the service will be restored within 3 hours. It is now 24 hours and still the service is not working. This is a company phone and I haven't been able to have contact with my workers or clients the past 24 hours. This morning I phoned the MTN call centre nr and was told that I have to now send a request on a letterhead for the service to be restored. I did not request the interruption of the service in the first instance!! I signed a 2 year contract just a month ago. Totally un-acceptable from MTN. My service need to be restored immediately. </p>

Thank you for your post.

We apologize for any inconvenience incurred.

Kindly be advised that the upgrade was done via the MTN store, with the upgrade you have received the new sim card in-case the new device is not compatible with the new device.

The sim card is activated now on the network, please reboot the device.

If you have not requested for the sim swap to be done, please visit the store and speak to the manager of the store.

Kind Regards,

Alice van der Merwe
