Prepaid & contract - different on weekends?

[ldmelsa]

Hi guys.

I have two CellC phones. One prepaid and one contract. On the weekends the prepaid phone struggles to make calls. It says "network busy", but it works 100% on weekdays. The funny thing is, the contract phone always works. This problem started a couple of weeks ago. I'm assuming that my phone is working, as it works fine during the week.

I was wondering if anyone else has the same problem. If you are, please post your experiences here.


Thanks

Could maybe be the phone itself that is not functioning correctly.
U didn't mention what Brand or model phone is on PRepaid and wich is on Contract. But maybe its signal strength / signal quality issues.

U can put a Nokia, Samsung, Motorola and even different models of each next to one another. Some may have poor quality signal and won't work. *Depends on area and how close the nearest tower is to you*

The free calls thing also started a few weeks ago. So next weekend swop the two sims and see what happens. I have a suspicion that contract customers get higher priority, thus the network busy on prepaid.
