6 weeks ago I suddenly began to experience very bad cellphone reception at home. If I drive 1km down the road it climbs again to 4G, but the signal is so poor at home sometimes a Whatsapp text message won't go through.
I logged a complaint with Vodacom on 09 March. On 16 March I received an SMS stating that "the serving tower is currently down, and this has been escalated to our Radio Planning Department for investigation".
But almost 2 weeks and still ridiculously poor reception. I phoned Vodacom to cancel my contract as I am paying for a LTE data contract, but am not receiving more than EDGE... only to be told that I would have to pay a huge cancellation fee.
Clearly Vodacom's Radio Planning Department does not plan to fix this any time soon, and now that we are in lock-down it's very difficult to connect with the outside world.
