VM GPRS back to sub 3rd world standard.

hi CellBel,

I have contactect the nwetwork guys & they say the problem is isolated, are you still having the sam problem?
 
Yes, and i've tried every hour since this morning i woke up. My friend also can't get on and he is (like me) also using MTN now to get in.
 
I have esclated this through to our to support and they are attending. This seems to be a general problem in the KZN area.
Thank you for brigning this to our attention CellBel
 
Also down near Rustenburg, NW

Also haven't been able to get a data squeak from VM all day today -- from the 'Nooitgedacht' mast between Rustenburg and Magaliesberg.
 
So let's get some answers here:

Ndlovu, you said it's an "isolated problem" and it was in the "KZN area", yet others are having problems in N Cape.

Which is it?
 
14 ½ hours later and VM GPRS is still dead. I'm still on MTN.
What's wrong with this people, it's more than 1 year now and still they can't fix the unreliability problem.
 
24 hours later!!!!!!!!
Web pages still don't open, and i don't know what happened to VM

Still down in NWP

Also still down in my area of NWP (see yesterday's post), now for the past 24 hours. And it's gone awfully quiet on the VM response front... Let's be charitable and assume they're all up at the sharp end fixing the problem....
 
VM down today 9PM-10PM. Then it gave me the CellC insufficient airtime page even tough there is plenty airtime loaded. wtf?

Back to normal now.
 
If anyone is having hassles, try and force the phone to use Cell C beacons. VC are having big problems and when I put in my VM card, the first couple of connections would not work until I told the phone to only use Cell C beacons. Then it worked first time.
