Oddly enough, the silent ring keeps popping up at all hours, turning a simple phone into a source of stress. Callers from this number never speak, drop the line, or repeat the same script about loans, suggesting a classic telemarketing setup that relies on persistence rather than conversation. Block the number in your phone settings and register your line with the national do‑not‑call registry to cut down on future hits. If the calls continue, consider filing a complaint with the communications regulator, providing timestamps and call logs as evidence. Keeping a record helps authorities spot patterns and enforce penalties against abusive spam callers.
SA seriously needs phone spam blockers like email ones, for real
That creepy quiet call stressing me out big time – quit it already, it's irritating
Laws ought to ban these calls, with penalties for each violation by those behind them. Plenty of folks are fed up. The phone buzzes, you respond, but silence follows, or calling back gets Telkom's message that "the number doesn't exist".
Persistent loan offers via calls
Ngifika lapha bafona amahora angu-15 ngosuku futhi uma ungamukela ucingo luyawa yishwe
Offering loans via direct access
Fed up with these folks, phone buzzes then ghosts when I pick up.
That rude idiot keeps buzzing non-stop, hunting for the wrong person, and refuses to explain why. Yoh, get a life!
Got a ring from this line; upon picking up, just quiet
Izinyosi ezivamile!!
I-Direct Axis
Politely declined the loan offer with thanks, yet calls continue. Total nonsense; sometimes silence after answering, callback fails as line's invalid. Fine them per ring.
Mystery call center
Insurance from Direct Axis
Even calling beyond work hours, they lack manners to actually talk when answered; love the rude wake-up from dead air. @#%&!
Always calling after hours, and silence when answered
Caller stays quiet, so identity unclear, but it's super annoying
Refuses to disclose the origin, just mentions "Cape Town".
Keeps ringing and drops when I pick up—three times today, super irritating! Ag, shame on them.
Umuntu ushayile ethi ufuna umlingani wendodakazi yami ku-landline yami wathi yi-Direct Axis. Bese ushaya cellphone yami futhi ufuna umlingani wendodakazi yami. Uzulazula igama lami, ubuze ukuthi ngingubani okhuluma, lapho ngibuza ukuthi ungubani... Wathi yicala elingokwako ngehla. Kuphi abantu abathola yonke le mininingwane futhi kungani bashaya.... Kuyacasula kakhulu
Won't quit phoning and stays quiet upon pickup
Quit calling me already, please!
Ngifunwa kancane, kuyeka uma ngimukela, ngiyakuzonda le nto
Ngixwayiwe ngaleli namba. Ngemuva kokushayelwa ngomhlaka 26/05 futhi ngibaxwayisa ukuthi angifuni ukubanikeza usuku lwami lokuzalwa kanye nokuthi anginandisi ukunikezelwa kwabo, laba bangufona kusukela ngo-7h00 ekuseni njalo ekuseni. Uma ngiphendula bayilahla ucingo. Uma ngingaphenduli bangishayela ngokuqhubekayo usuku lonke. Manje ngibike kwisebelezane ogama lingu-Mpho. Ake sibone ukuthi bazotawula yini ngalokhu.
Izingcingo ziphinda zenziwa, akekho ohlangothini olulunye
Ukuqamba amanga
Idiot dude
Called them back, but they said the number isn't real.
