Vodafone sim problem

Brought a pre pay sim yesterday from the vodafone dealship/relationship center. It seems to work ok for calls, made one no probs and called their help line. However I've tried registering it for vodafome live/gprs etc using the 144 text method as advised on the sheet and I got with my pack, I get the following message

" Your request for postpaid number has been received sucessfully.
Hello the Vodafone number does not exist"

not recieved a setting text as I have with other networks around the world and can't get a net/wap connection. Tried registering a few times and different add on always the say message back.

Is this normal? ie a delay in the regisration forms going live ( i did the whole photo/passport/address thing) that we sort itself out. Or have they not registered me correctly. Vodafones helpline isn't much help lost connection twice and told to 144 ACT the other time.




Thanks

Sim sellers, even "relationship centres" in India are notorious for not submitting the registration forms on time, or as happened to me once, not at all!

That may or may not be the cause of your problem, but either way I suggest you return to the relationship centre and ask them to sort it out themselves pdq.
