For the purpose of easy communication, the agency has published a list of contact details for a variety of purposes.

CUSTOMER SUPPORT — PHONE & WHATSAPP
These are the contacts to use if you have a billing question, a technical fault, a mobile query, or need help with your account. Each number is tied to a specific type of customer, so check which one applies to you before you call or message.
- Mobile Customer Care — 081 180
Free when calling from a Telkom Mobile line. This is the go-to number for Telkom Mobile subscribers with general queries. Calls from other networks will be charged at standard rates. - WhatsApp General Line — 0811 601 700
For customers who need to speak to a live agent. Works on any mobile network at standard data or messaging rates. Good for billing questions, service queries, and issues that need explanation rather than just a quick answer. - WhatsApp Self-Service — 081 160 1700
This line runs on an automated system. Use it to check your balance, buy airtime, or manage data bundles without waiting for an agent. Available to all mobile users at standard rates. - Telkom Register Helpline — 0861 100 948
A toll-free number specifically for registration-related queries. Not for technical support or billing — if you call this line with a service complaint, you will be redirected.
SERVICE CODES (Free from Telkom Landline Only)
The numbers below are officially listed in the Telkom Code of Practice and are free only when dialled from a Telkom landline. If you are calling from a mobile phone — whether Telkom Mobile or any other network — standard call charges will apply.
- 10213 — Sales, Billing & Cancellations
- 10210 — Residential Orders & Account Enquiries
- 10217 — Business Orders
- 10120 — Home Service
If you do not have a Telkom landline, the WhatsApp General Line (0811 601 700) is a better option for the same types of queries.
DIGITAL & SELF-SERVICE PORTALS
- Telkom Customer Care Hub: https://www.telkom.co.za/help-guide
A central starting point with guides, FAQs, and links to other support options. Good for customers who want to understand their options before picking up the phone. - Telkom “Get Help” Self-Service Portal: https://gethelp.telkom.co.za/
Designed for troubleshooting faults and sorting out common issues without calling anyone. The most practical first stop for broadband, fibre, or technical problems. - Main Website (for web self-service registration): https://www.telkom.co.za

Routes calls to internal departments such as HR, Legal, and Marketing. This is not a customer service line. - PAIA Information Officer — paia@telkom.co.za
