Just received word from my IT team that this is a nation wide issue. Data and Voice impacted!

I am having data issues, and having issues with my Afrihost account as well (linked to my MTN contract).
I just swopped my network mode from *WCDMA/GSM to *GSM only and it seems to be working fine for now...

Update: - MTN Advised that this is a CORE Network failure impacting nationally. They believe the issue is resolved, however will take time to stabilize across their network!

Yep, I can confirm the same and we're in Stellenbosch, Cape Town area. :smashScreen:

MTN's new Doornfontein data centre lost power which then for some reason crippled all data centres nationwide.

All Afrihost customers that were affected have received 1GB free data that expires on the 31st of May :rollsmile:

MTN is POS! Was with them for 10 years. 90% of calls were dropped daily (not even exaggerating). Canceled contract and ported to Vodacom and haven't had any issues since.

Yep also had issues in the Sandton area. But for some reason after upgrading to the S7, no issues.
