EcoCash Suspends Agent Lines in Line with RBZ Directive
Econet has suspended Agent lines in line with the RBZ directive issued yesterday.
According to some Agents, the lines had Cash-in functionality suspended at midnight. If they try to cash-in is they get a message saying;
Please note this service is currently suspended.
However, it seems Agents are only able to perform Agent-to-Agent transactions i.e they can only send money to another agent.
The crippling of the Agent lines has caught a number of money changers unaware as they were using EcoCash to pay for USD collected in the streets.
You can get full details of the RBZ directive issued yesterday here.
Meme makers have quickly seen the funny side of the situation.
