Strangely, the calls never let you hear a word, yet they ring like a relentless alarm. Most of these contacts masquerade as Telkom sales agents, switching between silent drops and brief, rude interrogations. The pattern points to a low‑cost telemarketing operation that relies on volume rather than conversation. Block the number on your handset and report it to your carrier’s spam‑filter service. Register with the national do‑not‑call list and consider a third‑party call‑screening app that flags silent or unknown callers. Never share personal details, and if a call does connect, hang up immediately and log the incident for future reference.

Skip answering it
Answered but only silence... Suggest blocking this number...
Truly bothersome
Ucingo oluthulekile kathathu, yazi!
It took ages for her to reply to what I said, and once the lady finally talked, she came across as rude and demanded my old surname from before my marriage six years back. Then she simply disconnected.

Ek kry daagliks oproepe van hierdie nommer af. Dit maak my mal. Blokkeer help nie, want hulle skakel net met 'n ander een. Yoh, dis frustrating.

Calls come at least three times daily—nothing but quiet on the line
