Prank call involving Eskom and Sanral resurfaces
Updated | By Stacey & J Sbu
The most riveting phone call of the season (or possibly all time)...

When two powerhouses combine, there is bound to be an epic showdown.
A TikToker took us on a trip down memory lane by posting a prank call from 2015 - one of the best ever produced in this country.
Listen to the classic below:
@rik_taylor What happens when you put Eskom and eTolls call centre together #prankcall #fyi #SAMA28 #metrofmawards2023 #tiktoksouthafrica #thabobester ♬ original sound - Spanish Queen_Sonahz
As captured above, this is what happens when the two SA services come together.
Contrary to our initial preconceptions, both services answered timeously whilst aiming to "correct each other about nothing".
The patience they had was "unlike anything we have ever seen before".

Here's more on what the internet had to say:
- "It's them correcting each other with the phone numbers"
- "They are epically confused"
- "The fact that you got ahold of them is amazing"
- "There is no order here"
- "How I met your mother"
- "A+ for her patience"
- "This is so evil lmao"
