And "Customer Care" is taking forever to answer my call

Couple of people at school today (in Jo'burg) were complaining that their SMS's weren't going thru

[MichaelFalconer]

Well it better not take too long to sort out... i need to send urgent txt and mms.

MY sms's haven't been going the whole day. Keep getting Message Sending Failed.

I had someone complaining they couldn't SMS me, but I could send him one.

Maybe prepaid are bombing?

My 12:00 MMS came through at about 16:00.

Vodacom must have lost some SMS servers or something else is going horribly wrong. Many of the people close to me who use vodacom either don't see SMSes going through or some other random issue occurs. I often receive blank and repeated SMSes from one person that was never even sent to me. So generally privacy might actually be an issue. We also use vodacom for some remote sensors - those issues now seem to be sorted out, but since you can't trust SMS anymore things are getting tricky.
