No way to cancel a ****** sim and device after hours.

I have in general been very happy with Vodacom for the last year, but last night I was ****** while out cycling, and my phone was ******. I have been up and down the vodacom website using different browsers to try and block my ****** simcard and phone. Links don't work, endless redirects. It seems impossible to do it online. That failing I called customer care. Loads of useless options, always experiencing high call volumes, and then getting a message to rather use the self help options such as their website. This is terrible customer service from such a large company. Don't think I will use them again for my next contract.

Just a note. You told me that I should use your social media channels in future if I need assistance. Please state this on your website, or better yet, ad it as an option on your site. This issue was resolved by myself going to the vodacom store the next day. Thankfully the people that stole my phone didn't use my sim in that time.
