Witholding my number

<p>I bought a Contract deal with Telkom. I wanted them to load the contract on my original number ( ********** 796) or port the number from MTN. My number at MTN is on prepaid and at Telkom we have sent a request to port this numer for 5 times and MTN will not release this number. My question is why is it so hard for MTN to release this number. I have tried to call them, instead they are so arrogant! What must I do now? Since 2006, Icasa has regulated this process of porting the number. I am going to write them the email that MTN is obstructing my right to move to the network of my choice by witholding my number.</p>
