Impossible to speak to humans at vodacom callcenter

Everytime i call 135, its impossible to speak to a human. Its like there are no humans working at these call centers. there is absolutely no option to speak to an agent!

I bought a cell phone a year ago, its network locked. After activation of the sim, i received an SMS,stating that the phone can be unlocked after a year, after which i must call in and get the unlocking code. How do i do this when there is no option to get the pin to unlock the network? There is no option to speak to any human too.

Good Day

Thank you for getting back to me.

An agent called and gave the code to my mum.

I tried a different sim. As soon as the phone starts, it says
Enter SIM ME lock [NP]'
Whats this exactly? My sim does not have a pin lock.

However i tried the code that was given to my mum, it says wrong code.

If you do call at any time, kindly call after 11am.

Also why is there no option to speak to an agent when one dials 135? The options given by the recording does not cover many issues. I brought this to the attention of the agent last month, she said follow the prompts but whats the point when the prompts do not suit ones requirements?.
Theres no option for billing department or a department to unlock the vodacom locked phone ,no option to speak to agent.


Awaiting your response

Thank you
