just another day at telkom

Useless, no one willing to help. How exactly do you link a prepaid SIM to a Telkom profile (your online account) if the system does not work?

I got a prepaid SIM, got it RICA'd and have the number allocated. So on the profile the SIM needs to be linked to, I: Log in to telkom (not beta login) then click on link personal accounts Fill out the info and it gives invalid ID / number combo... ok... why is this? I'm using the ID number used to RICA with.... i'm trying to help someone else to link a sim to their profile, so I got a SIM to try and do it myself so that I could guide them, but it does not work. The store says it's a technical issue and they cannot help. The call center says there is no issue linking numbers... So, how exactly do you link a prepaid SIM? I'm told there are no problems linking it... if not then why does it not work? Unfortunately, I will not give you the details as the issue needs to be fixed - not just for me. I will try again and see. If there's something that I'm not aware of then I should have been informed by the 3 different people I spoke to.

Reviewer Update
So, I logged into my profile now and it seems it's automatically added? But there's an option to link on your website that doesn't work... Why could no one tell me it's automatically added? So long as this new information is correct, then to help the other person (which was the whole reason I had to get prepaid SIM myself), then hopefully I'll just have to wait 12 hours for the SIM to automatically be added to their profile. If I'm correct in that all you must do is wait.. then I am sorted. But, the system should still be looked at.
thank you
