Beyond frustrated with Vodacom.

I am beyond frustrated with Vodacom! I lost my phone and with Vodacom I am not able to do a swim swap because I cannot answer questions about this useless Voda bucks. I have used this number for many many years long before the world up of 2010, and today I am unable to keep the number simply because the answers I give them regarding Voda bucks are not matching what is on the system. To make matters worse, I make these calls to Vodacom from an international line, imagine the costs I incurred for this and still come out empty handed. This is the same number I roam on abroad and the number is linked to so many of my contracts including banking platforms. Now because I cannot do swim swap I cannot even transact on some banking platforms because I can’t receive authorisation sms. How can this be reasonable?

How is Voda bucks part of authentication?
If you ask relevant security questions then we are able to answer these, but don’t ask me how many Voda bucks I have banked please, ask security questions related to the use of the phone number because that is information I would know.

Have you seen this part of my complaint: ‘To make matters worse, I make these calls to Vodacom from an international line, imagine the costs I incurred for this and still come out empty handed.’ So I cannot visit a Vodacom shop because I am not in the country and I wont be in the country for a while?
Please can you respond to my complaint and not render a scripted response.
