Vodacom Hates Me

Vodacom hates me.

I am a victim of poor signal, initially I assumed it was my phone. After borrowing different phones from family members and buying a new flagship device, I realised it is the network. When I try to make a call, I have to wait a longer period only to see the "failed call" notification or "no mobile network available". I have to either try two to three times or restart the device before I can phone. Internet is also very intermittent and slow. My phone is always on Edge and have to restart before I can get HSDPA or 5G which only lasts for about a minute.

Every single, like in in LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE call I make, people can never hear me and halve way through the call I have to put the phone down and phone again. I have to recall the person every 4 to 5 minutes on longer calls.

To make matters worse, I have called Vodacom several times for signal issues, and they just never come back to me. I offered to pay for a signal booster but to no avail.

If you go to Vodacom head office, you will find my face against the reception wall with a cross through it with the saying "we are raping this man by taking his money and providing substandard service"
