Method 2: Using My Vodacom App (Optional, Requires Data)

If you have the My Vodacom app downloaded on your phone with an active data connection, you can also use it to send a “Please Call Me” message.

1. Open the My Vodacom app on your phone.
2. Login to your Vodacom account (if required).

5. Send the request.

Important Notes:

• The “Please Call Me” service is free to use on Vodacom.
• The recipient will receive a message stating, “The Vodacom subscriber at [your phone number] requests you to call back.” There might be an additional message with a visual advertisement depending on your settings.
• This service is intended for situations where you don’t have enough airtime to make a regular call.
• The recipient is responsible for initiating the call back.

Additional Tips:

• You can send “Please Call Me” messages to any mobile network in South Africa, not just Vodacom.
• Consider including a brief reason for requesting a call back in the message itself (if using the app method and it allows customization). This can help the recipient decide whether to call you back right away.
