24hrs later Sim still active & No simswipe for me

after my phone went missing on monday, called telkom to suspend the number. as usual i got the yes sir my pleasure sir all is done, just buy a sim card and call us we will remove the suspension and do a sim-swipe within seconds. <br> <br> to my surprise when i called this morning to do a sim-swipe, my sim was still active somewhere. a sim-swipe could not be done, i was advised that it will take 78hrs for me to be able to do a sim-swipe. <br> <br> iam not asking for special treatment, i just need the number i use for my business to be in my control and not in someone else's control. as a broker my number is very important to me, i bank on it, pay my agents with it, get my business through it. waiting for another 78hrs for a simple sims-wipe is being hung out to dry...<br> <br> totally uncalled for telkom.
