    Vodacom denies failing Icasa call quality standards

    Honestly Vodacom is the only reliable network in the whole of Northern Cape. MTN fails regularly. Not an option in the Northern cape anymore. Don't get a contract for MTN if you're in the NC

    MTN plans to use state of disaster to source electrical engineers from other African countries

    Honestly I think that's a lie. For example here in the Northern Cape. From Upington and surrounding towns to Kathu and Kuruman etc. MTN has only 2 technicians servicing the whole area.
