RECEPTION PROBLEMS
We have been experiencing bad to no reception on our MTN network cellular phones for at least the past 6 months. The last 2 months we had little to no reception on our Farm Gamanyana near Olifantshoek. We installed all the necessary equipment needed and had it tested.<br> <br> I contacted the MTN call centre on Thursday 7 April 2016 regarding this on which the operator told me that their towers are working and that my life partner are not registered on the MTN Network! Really? He has been a client with MTN for at least 15 years with the same cellular number? Of course I knew that the operator will not reach my life partner because I could also not reach him because of the no reception.<br> <br> All the other farmers in the area are experiencing the same problems. In our country today we cannot afford to be without reception on the farm. There are no Telkom lines on our farm and the Cellphone are the only communication between me and my life partner in the week as he stays on the farm and I only go out every week-end.<br> <br> Can someone please see what is going on? We have heard one of the other farmers told someone that some of the batteries was ****** from one of the MTN towers.
