Vodacom has assured the thousands of us who experienced the total non-existence of phone signal for hours yesterday, that it had nothing to do with RICA. That puts the mind at ease, doesn’t it? Now, if only everyone had also registered to meet that pesky RICA deadline by midnight, we’d all be laughing.
“The engineers are still working on the network outage – apologies to everyone affected. Just to confirm, this is not related to RICA,” Vodacom said yesterday.
But on the RICA registration point, there were still a couple of million people who hadn’t got around to it by last night. The Regulation of Interception of Communication Act required every SIM card in the country to be registered by yesterday, or risk being cut off at midnight: i.e. permanent signal failure for quite a few folk.
