Vodacom are useless (Vodacom's Twin call sim card)

<p>I went into a Vodashop in the Mall@Reds in Centurion on 18/05/2017 to buy a twin call sim card as I wanted to use it in a Smart Watch which I had bought. The sim card was apparently "activated" after 24 hours, but when I tried to use it, I kept on getting an error message in my smart watch that said "no sim card". I went back to the Vodashop, Mall@Reds on 20/05/2017 only to be told that Vodashop apparently couldn't process the twin call sim card and it had to be done from Vodacom at Vodaworld. I was also given a replacement sim card and told not to use it until I get a phone call. Brandon from Vodashop, Mall@Reds, called me on 24/05/2017 to tell me all the reasons why he couldn't activate my sim card but nothing about when I could start using it. Today is the 26/05/2017 and Brandon is still unable to give me an answer. What has actually happened now, is that I have purchased a sim card which I cannot use and Vodacom are not coming to the party in sorting out the problem!!!</p>

It is now more than 6 weeks and still I get emails from Vodacom Customer Care advising me that my complaint has been escalated and that someone will call me within 24 hours - to date, Vodacom's 24 hours has become 8 days so far and counting, and I am STILL waiting for someone to call me. In the meantime, I am sitting with a SMART watch and a Vodacom sim card that I can't use. Thanks Vodacom, the SMART watch was a birthday present and is basically useless to me and it's all your fault!!!!!!
