We have tried various numbers (contract) on the Vodacom network and it seems like many VC subscribers cant receive calls. Anyone else experiencing this problem? If so, which region?

Well, on the plus side, I can expect a credit from VC for the time they were offline.
Problem should be resolved now...

Still trying to get the whole story but loadshedding caused some equipment problems in Pta, that would have affected some numbers around the country.
Busy normalising at the moment. Always a good idea to re-boot your phone after such an incident.

Also had some problems here this afternoon but fine at the moment. Couldn't get hold of people with VC numbers but was fine with all other networks.

Cant I trust VodaCom?
Can i trust VodaCom? I had so many problems from no data on only one number now this network down problem puts the cherry on the top! I had to get another Simcard yet even that number seems to be going down with the rest. Well that number was a 072 and now i got a 076 did a sim swap on both to 64k...maybe its that
so wats with this network down all the time?

In that case I guess you can't. I don't know of any fail-safe technology in this (or any) world.
However, if you're willing to use a network that 99.9% available, then the Vodacom network easily beats that number.
