Unable to use MTN data

Hi. I ported my number to MTN prepaid and then got a new contract with MTN. Received the phone on Saturday 11/07/2015. Since obtaining the phone I have not been able to use the data, cannot connect to the internet or even send SMS's. I have called the call center numerous times, visited the store and still no joy. No one can actually say why this is happening or even if they know how to fix it. I read multiple peoples post with the same problem, some experience this as far back as 2004. This is not a new problem, why cant MTN get this right? What is going on? This is the worse service ever experienced.<br> Seems like the only option is to cancel this contract as it is less than 7 days.

In order for us to restore your faith in us, we have decided to credit your next invoice that will be generated on the 13th of August 2015. We will check the total invoice amount on the day and credit it accordingly.
