CellC "roams" on the Vodacom network ( cell towers/base stations ) Thus indirectly are you talking on the Vodacom network. GSM Bandwitdh is allocated to CellC Your call is not bumped because of Vodacom , your call is bumped because of CellC not renting enough bandwidth from Vodacom. Cell C is however gradually installing it's own base stations and thus will roam on its own network. I would however not recommend CellC as their service sucks and uses equipment from the lowest bidder ! ( Trust me, I worked 9 years for the 3rd biggest telecoms company in the world )
