Telkom mobile network down

Been slow since 7AM here in PE, and I just tried to open my VPN connection to my home network and couldn't connect.

Eish, this on top of the WACs issue that's also still outstanding

Mine just stays on this screen when I try to make a phone call. Data dead as well.
 
Stuck here in Durban and can't call anyone.

Resorted to a wifi hotspot to send WhatsApp's. Let's not even talk about Durban's City Centre at the moment, because of loadshedding.
 
Yeah I've also been down for the last couple hours. If I reboot my phone it will connect momentarily and messages will come through but then it goes right back to "Emergency calls only" - can't make calls or use data at all.
 
Data is working fine on the Telkom network in the Cape Town CBD for me. My calls also worked fine this morning.

How is this voice outage still on going. No off net calls or sms.......

It's just stuck on calling and eventually just say Call ENDED.
 
Haven't had data or voice from around 12 in Johannesburg.
 
Telkom prepaid LTE now on. Speed test showing it connecting to a Vodacom point. LTE via Afrihost still dead as non racialism in the ANC.
 
Just imagine somewhere someone is trying to call for an Ambulance, Police or any sort of help but can't get through.

Unacceptable!
 
Can we get a telkom rep or follow up on this please.. it affects a large number of people .. how can we track whats happening and when it will be corrected ?
 
My phone showed full bars, but people WhatsApp me to say they cannot reach me.
So you think you are connected, but you are not.
