Did Cell C deactivate Vodacom roaming on my sim?

Hi All

I know this is a issue going on for a long time.

I have been asked to request every one on Red Bull Mobile who is experiencing roaming issues to reconfirm or provide me the following:

Please PM me only the following:
Name:
RBM SIM Number:
RBM phone IMEI:
Email :

This information is not for logging any cases, but it has been requested by the Red Bull Mobile Business manager.

Regards

*****Hi All

Hi Cell_C, any news regarding VC roaming. What happened to the information that was send trough? Going away end of February beginning of March. Are you guys ever going to fix this problem? Thanks.
 
I'm a RBM subscriber and I tried using the APN info below and what do you know... data now works on the CellC and Vodacom Networks again. This was not the case for some months.

Name: RBM Internet
APN: mobile.redbullmobile.co.za
Proxy: 196.31.116.250
Port: 8080
MCC: 655
MNC: 07
Authentication Type: None
APN type: default

Data won't work if a Red Bull Mobile subscriber uses the default CellC APN, but using the APN info posted, all works well.

CellC roaming on Vodacom EDGE in Cape Town?

About a month ago CellC stopped roaming on Vodacom's EDGE in Cape Town. So if you didn't have a 3G signal you couldn't connect to the internet at all. Quite bad especially since the 3G coverage is patchy.

From this morning I've got an EDGE signal. Anyone else getting an EDGE signal as well in Cape Town and does the CellC rep know if they've signed a roaming agreement once again? EDGE is quite useful for preserving the battery on my phone and I'm covered just about everywhere in CT when there is no 3G.
 
Good Day SaiyanZ

It was not the hole of Capetown.
What area are you in i can check to see if was done in your area.

Hi Cell_C, any news on the roaming. Still does not work for me. Common, going away next week will be really nice to be able to use my phone and to get what i'm paying for. Just from curiosity, how many months do you need guys, for some one to have a look at it and got it fix.
 
On Friday I was in Kommetjie, Cape Town, I had no reception at all on my phone using a standard Cell-C prepaid SIM.
A friend using a Vodacom had signal. Is this one of the areas where roaming has been disabled?
 
I second Bavmorda and Daiyaan. I sent a PM to Armondo as requested on 25 January about my inability connect to any Cell C data services through my RBM contract when not in the major centres.
A week ago I was visiting family in Limpopo. Although my wife could connect to data services on her Vodacom phone I did not have the same luck on my phone. I also have a Netcomm Router with Cell C. With the router I could connect through an Edge signal but not with my LG Optimus Black which is on the RBM contract. Should the settings of the phone be different when roaming?
Can we please have a response Cell C?
 
Leaving tomorrow morning YEY. Well, except for few promises from Armando, nothing really happened. Will try while i'm there, but does not work in JHB, pretty sure it's not going to work there as well. Armando, would you please response and let us now, are we going to get the data going on our RBM contracts while roaming or not? Thank you very much.
 
Vodacom data romaing

Its been more than a year now and cellc has still not fixed my situation.

I am frequently out of cellc coverage whilist I travel and hence roam on vodacom.

I am unable to make use of any data services then.

I am really upset as cellc has not bothered to provision my number to the service.

It is evident that it should work as i have two family members with a contract and prepaid sim, and the data works perfectly whilist roaming.

My last plea.

I've also got a similar problem here at work, If I leave my office building and walk 200m down the lane to our food court. I end up roaming on voda, with no data on edge.
