NON STOP CALLS!! How can we not have any recourse against this kind of aggressive spam calls and marketing!? These guys keep harassing me over and over on a daily basis and I have no way to block this on my Telkom landline. I use my landline for business but my sanity is at it's end! I'm porting my number over to a voip provider just so I can block this number. When I get fibre from another company I'm cancelling ALL MY TELKOM SERVICES FOREVER.

Trying to sell free minutes or something, started shouting after I said not interested

The caller says she is from Telkom Fibre. Heavy marketing of a Fibre connection. Surely they know I cancelled Fibre after a supposed 2 month fee trial.It took 4 months to escape after paying over R500-00/month for a phone connection call charges and no data. Whenever there was a power outage the phone was dead. Eventually I applied online and not a shop for a Fixed Line LookAlike (FLLA). It was delivered within 3 days and had my original home number. It connects like a cellphone and has a battery back up. It costs less than R150/m including calls. I do have the after hours and weekender Plan. I thank Telkom for granting me credit in excess of R1000-00 for use on my current setup. By the way the FLLA is not contract but simply a month to month deal

Missed three calls in an hour. Tried to call back but no answer. I will answer next call and leave more feedback on this site.

If this is Telkom, as others have said, then it is to try and get me to buy fibre connectivity. I never answer numbers I do not know anyhow, but get sick of blocking Telkom sales calls

This is a Telkom number and in this case used to cancel fixed line contract. Eventhough instructed to cancel online which was done they still insist on doing it telephonically as well. Go figure! Not the friendliest

Person hangs up as you answer.

I guess this number is used for multiple purposes. They call me to confirm my line cancellation. No more landline and ADSL crap, going to fiber

Our telkom land lines were out of service for a while and after receiving a sms that a technician was assigned, this is the number he called us from to ask if we are there to open for him to gain access

Claimed to be from Telkom. Called me 2 days in a row even though I made it clear that I am not interested. Tried to keep me on the line even after I told him in no uncertain terms I am not interested

I'm terrified after reading the comments as I signed up for the contract under the impression that it is a legit call from Telkom?? can Telkom intervene.

This was a Telkom technician that called me from this line for a fault that I had logged with Telkom. He told me he was on his way to come sort out my fault. Think it might be a generic Telkom callcentre number.

Nuisance/Scam. Calling 6 times a day.

Idiots, spooks or scamsters, take your pick. Hello Peter has an answer re this number, allegedly from the "Telkom Social Media Team," no further contact details provided. Such team does not exist. They have a "Social Media SUPPORT Team" - which is something completely different. Besides: Social media support would have little reason to call landlines. Not much tweeting and texting going on via fixed lines, last time I checked. Further: many ppl here who actually get to speak to a human, report entirely different alleged reasons for being called. Perhaps these fools should make up their mind who or what they are supposed to be

Supposedly Telkom offering me Wifi services, but I have Wifi????? When I said, but I have Wifi, I was told they are aware, but the system is offline, so they cant check. So strange. I won't trust such call centres

My husband and I are receiving the same from this number. Surely this can be traced and resolved by Telkom.

Got a call from this number saying that it was Telkom and I had reported a fault which I had not. Called back a few times and got cut off. Phoned 10210 and they confirmed that a fault had been logged on my line. As I had not logged a fault, told them to cancel it. WEIRD.

Repeated calls, which cannot be called back. Very irritating. Obviously a telemarketer
