Telkom Poor data coverage

Telkom sells you a cellular contract and fails to check coverage in the area. The 188 assistant says that they can not assist and I need to contact ***, which does not exist.

Now I sit with a cellular contract with data that I am unable to use as only telkom roaming data works in my area. Or the phone switches over to roaming network and I have no data. Then I get smses indicating my data is disconnected due to out of bundle.

If I need to use data I have to purchase additional bundles and forfeit contract provided data.
