With Please Call, you can request someone to call you back or ask for assistance from someone else using the service.
How to Give Please Call on Telkom
To give Please Call on Telkom, follow these simple steps:
Step 1: Dial *140*Recipient's Number#
To give Please Call, dial *140* followed by the recipient's number, then #. For example, if you want to give Please Call to 0712345678, dial *140*0712345678#.
Step 2: Listen to the Instructions
After dialing the code above, you will hear a voice prompt instructing you to press 1 to confirm that you want to give Please Call to the recipient's number you have just entered.

Things to Note When Giving Please Call on Telkom
It's important to note that:
- Please Call is free to use, but the recipient will be charged the normal call rates when they call you back.
- You can only use Please Call if you have no airtime or if your Telkom airtime has run out. If you have airtime, it's advisable to buy more airtime instead of using Please Call.
- If the recipient does not call you back within 24 hours, the Please Call notification will expire and you will need to send another Please Call if you still need their assistance.
In Conclusion
