### 2/5 — Balance disappearing / Feedback is bad

*2024-08-22, version 8.2.4*

I am giving this a single star, and I am happy to come back within another review again. 
Its cheaper to use but these are my concerns 
1. Its not possible to get a response from the Africall or developers if you have any issue. I have send them emails, whatsapp msg, and even calling but no one attends to you.
2. My balance has just disappeared without warning or using it. No explanation as to why. 
3. You call log is not organised in a coherent way or dates, its mixed
4. Recharging you balance takes ages and not straight forward 
5. The app has not been updated for a long time and sometimes it crushes. 

There is great potential and will likely continue to use the app with the hope that these issues will be fixed otherwise I will consider migrating to other providers

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2024-04-04, version 8.2.4*

Generally ok but can’t be trusted

### 1/5 — Simbah

*2023-09-01, version 8.2.4*

This App is useless, you can even recharge. It keeps on crushing. Can you resolve this issue please. I’m really frustrated

### 1/5 — Terrible Don’t Use

*2023-06-20, version 8.2.4*

I don’t even think they still update their app. I have credit in my account but it won’t let me call. All the support numbers available are useless, one is even disconnected and says number not recognised and the other one just goes to voicemail. Waste waste of time. Cheap is expensive

### 1/5 — No confirmation code

Won’t send confirmation code until it starts reporting your number as invalid

*2021-10-17, version 8.2.4*

The app does not work, I can’t make calls when I’m away from my WiFi. The app doesn’t allow me to use my mobile data! I signed up for this service as I mostly use mobile data and have limited access to WiFi. I do not recommend using it. It doesn’t even work sometimes when I’m on WiFi.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-06-25, version 8.2.4*

Downloaded and topped up credit with no issue but could not make calls and my credit disappeared. Now can’t log in for over a month now. Customer service doesn’t answer calls. Sent message on WhatsApp number, no response. Money gone on this useless App. Don’t even know how to get a refund. Stay away from this App. DO NOT USE. Would give zero stars if I could

### 1/5 — Disappointed customer

*2025-03-03, version 8.2.4*

This App is useless they lied about the credit minutes I bought 32 minutes for $5 but to my surprise I only used less than 10 minutes and the network is very bad can you please change your system not to scam people

### 1/5 — Non functional app

*2024-11-17, version 8.2.4*

Someone recommend this app for, have been trialing it

>Recharging was very difficult
>When I eventually managed it couldn’t pick contacts from my phonebook 
>decided to manually input
> the + sign doesn’t work, eventually did manual input, 
> keeps saying there is a problem with my network connection therefore could not make any call. 
>then I noticed my balance had gone blank. Tried to reboot, switch phone on and off, remove app and reinstall, logout and back in, nothing worked. 
Trusted to call customer care. Goes to voicemail and they haven’t returned any of my calls even though I keep calling them. 
> tried to contact them via whatsapp, could take up to a day before I get a response. Told to reboot my internet told them I had done all that. Now they have gone quiet even though my messages have been blue ticked. 

If I could give a zero rating I would have.

Found out about the app 2 yrs ago, only started using it 2 wks ago. Sound quality is amazing, good value for money and I love the never ending conversations with my granddad, not rushed and feel content we won’t get cut off.

Please guys sort it out. 😘
