My clients are informing me lately that they cannot get through to me when dialling my 081 number.

I have full signal and no issues with data or dialling out but they hear a message saying the number doesn't exist.

It doesn't even ring, it just says the number you have dialed is Incorrect. I thought they were talking nonsense until I shared my number with someone right next to me and heard the message myself.

Over the past few months, people have mentioned similar errors to me and I shrugged it off as unlikely or load shedding related.

I've tried restarting my phone and dialing from other MTN numbers but the calls go through as normal.
 
sim swap to a newer sim card? 32K to 64K or something like that.
had something similar with my 083 MTN number and the guy at the MTN shop told me something about older sim cards not working right with MTN network.

sim swapped and got my SIm working, but every so often it wants to subscribe me to one of those R2 a day services,
have no idea where they come from.
