Vodacom is an arrogant and badly run monopoly

I have been trying to activate my international roaming for MORE THAN A MONTH now. I have made well in excess of 20 phone calls to the help line and have made 3 special trips to different vodacom outlets in person trying to find a way to activate it! Sunday 7th September before boarding my flight I was told that this account had been activated (after finally paying R 5'000 in person because no combination of account number provided by the vodacom store was accepted online). I am now out of the country trying to run a business without access to communication.

This is without doubt the worst company I have ever had to work with..
