Bro don't feel bad about the customer service you received, it's not cause you're foreign, even us Namibians get that treatment. Dope vlogs btw, but I wouldn't walk around with my technology around Windhoek's city centre if I were you 😂
Service in Africa can be just depressing, there are fewer people very professional. You do get a few who are though. They say there is no hurry in Africa
@Jazmine Ngairo baby you can't apologise for something YOU didn't do! We WANT to come but when we come we really feel uncomfortable 😔😔.. White's are treated better.. Fact's
Namibia feels like going back in time. It looks like the 90s. I've never even been there but I feel nostalgic. It's beautiful. If I ever live anywhere in Africa, it would be Namibia. It looks so different. I just love it!
you need a real dope Namibian experience man, i feel like you are looking in all the wrong places. i am a Namibian and i know we got like a whole lot to offer you.Try going to the hood, there are a lot of cultural difference and amazing people and food...... ps dont go alone
From a Namibian: service is terrible. You're lucky if you find someone friendly and helpful. Unfortunately economic pressures has taken a bit of a toll on people's personality. The place for the cool sunset is Three Circles. Thanks for posting, new subbie!
Why don't you get in touch with other TH-camrs who live in the countries you visit? It could benefit the both of you subscriber and view wise. And that person could give you good info about interesting places to visit and how to deal with the locals. Plus you will always have a contact there.
Namibian we support u, you are doing a great job for visiting us, don't worry those ladies I think thy are just over reacting coz not all people in namibia like rasta guys, but we at your back man
I was in Cape Town South Africa two weeks ago and they treated me fine matter fact they treated me like I was another person from there and I’m from America. I’m going back in the summer
Thank you for sharing your different experience in Namibia. Learn lots of thins about travel from you ! Hope to see you in Sri Lanka one day. Thank you and happy travel Jermaine. Take care.
Omg, I’ve always been wondering do people dislike you when they hear your american accent. ☺️ I tend to forgot that when I go to other countries I’m the one with the accent, not them. Your face is super stunning 💯 just thought I’d let you know, 🤷🏽♀️ never wear hats again lol.
Jermaine I am from Namibia and I am sorry what happened to you. Some city people are just not nice. Town people much more relax and friendly. You know it is the city and life is fast there. But I actually do not want to make excuses for MTC. That was and yes they were very rude. Think it has to do with the fact that, besides telecom that is land line based, they do not have another business like theirs to compete with. But in Otjiwarongo they are very nice. Never had a problem and they are very friendly. Hope Namibia is still your favoured. Hope you will visit us again.
It's actually because of your American accent. Namibians generally get annoyed with American accents coming from a African black man. It's seems like an exageration. All in all namibians are lovely people. But love your chanel man. Keep up!!
@@ftw7813 African Americans travel the least of the major ethnic groups in the USA, Namibia is one of the least densely populated countries in the world. It's just ignorance, I doubt they had malicious intent in thinking his accent or mannerisms were exaggerated/fake. The average Namibian probably doesn't know what an average well-spoken African American looks or sounds like just as I doubt the average African American would know what a well spoken Namibian person looked or sounded like.The only time most of these people get to see African Americans is through media & entertainment. I doubt the video creator was running into the most well informed, ""woke" intelligent people working in these stores(No offense). Plus customer service just isn't a thing in many African countries. When you get fed BS from the media and you never get a chance to experience otherwise what else are you supposed to believe?
I'm saying this with love but saying his hair doesn't look tidy because he has dreadlocks is a very European/White way of thinking and that's a problem. The beauty of African textured hair is that we can do so many things with it.
Nah, I don’t think it’s because of your American accent, Namibians generally have the worst customer service 🤷🏾♀️ they’re just rude, not everyone but a lot of them
It’s because of your energy buddy🤫, My apologies don’t mean to offend you but most peeps down here just not open to the whole gay thing and I know it doesn’t give them the right to treat you like that🤷🏽♂️But either then that , great vlog, love the content...be sure to have a guide next time, or get in touch with some local youtubers. I am sure you would have had an awesome time. 💪🏽👊🏽
Jermaine, the main reason that I thought you would like to visit Ethiopia is because of the Food. They have soo much amazingly delicious vegetarian food there combined with the delicious teff injera. You can eat up there,.
Real talk is the reason you highly dislike the gay community because you are very effeminate and hate people thinking you are gay because of your feminine mannerism?
Honestly, it's not you. I am Namibian, born and bred. I have travelled a lot and lived overseas. Please believe me when I say we have some of the worst customer service in the world. It really has nothing to do with you. Nevertheless, sorry you went through that but it is really something inevitable in Nam. Not proud about it but we unfortunately go through that almost every day.
Another interesting video. Travel truths. As for bad service you will never know the reason why but your attitude is good. If you do find a great spot or location to sit and marvel why not just note the GPS coordinates in a travel notebook? Your travels are getting so adventurous now that you could consider an online private journal. You could start a WordPress and just keep it for private. Who knows you may want to write a book one day.
That's the problem in Namibia. Mtc is supposed to be the leading cellular network provider in Namibia but when it comes to service they really suck. They make everything complicated. Tnmobile is the best
Urghhhhh I cant even!!! I am sorry for this experience. I am still adjusting. Been out of the country for about 8 years and upon my return, honestly, I was so disappointed with the customer service delivery.
Yikes, I spoke too soon. Sorry that you’re having a rough time there. You are young and can deal with that. I no longer have the patience. I would have just gone to the next country, hopeful for better experience.
Well it was "the fifth province" for pretty much the whole twentieth century. It's a single economy. Hence the Randzone and South African Customs Union (the world's oldest existing customs union).
That's one of the the things that really annoyed me when was there because as as South African going to another African country i wanted to experience something different and unique. I wanted to see what Namibia has to offer but i was extremely disappointed to see that these people have literally nothing under their name, it's South African companies and products all over. They even play our songs most of the time, and their TV channels are so boring, so they watch our S.A multichoice channels. 😂😂😂😂😂 And Windhoek is the only place you can call it a town in Namibia the rest are dusty villages e.g Ongwediva, Ondangwa, Oshakati, Otjuwarongo, etc but they call those towns. 😂😂😂 And then there's Walvis and Swakopmund, lots of white South Africans there dominating the entire place during holidays, you'll hardly see Namibians.
@@southafrican1010 mybru iam from south Africa and I don't see whats wrong with Namibia its a beautiful nation this is one of the reasons I don't fly cause when u drive through those small towns you see different ways of life how people live compared to city's like cape Town durban
It's not personal, our customer service in general truly sucks, trust me I'm Namibian. People are friendly though but customer service can suck sometimes
My boyfriend is Namibian and I go there about four times a year and Namibia has the WORST customer service, even my boyfriend says the same. But you also need to understand that they get paid next to nothing so of course they are not going to care, but it doesn’t make it ok to act the way they do. It’s a beautiful country with beautiful people but the service is terrible. I’m also American and my accent isn’t the issue but they are very big on greetings. Took me a while to not just ask the question but you need to say hi and ask how they are especially when you are asking for something. I definitely look like I’m not from there because I’m Cuban and Ecuadorian but they usually just stare. Also make sure you visit the Sand dunes in both Walvis Bay & sossusvlei! It is incredible and the stars you see are unreal
J.Ellis... Good on you for seeing the adventures on the continent through. I'm sure you've come across many a challenges, but me personally, I appreciate what you've vlogged and shared thus far because I've learnt from them. So Blessings to you for that. Quick Question though... and you may have said before but, how do you plan and fiance your adventure? You've taken island hopping to the next stage Lol and this is something I would love to do. Thank you.
The ones that been here in America for years act the same way when you try to get customer service that is just their attitude I assume especially the ones that work in cell phone shops here I get it all the time.
What you experienced is totally legit. Most Namibians, doesn't know what they are selling, and they have a very poor customer service, trust me, I know. And they have something not only with Americans, but with foreigners in general. But there are some really nice people there.
Visit Rwanda! The President their is better than most countries! And.. development is great! Also Ghana, Kenya and Tanzania seems to be better. From my research
That's how it is here in general, just observe tho how the very same black pple serve other races, so friendly with a big smile, buffles me all the tym.
Looks nothing like Atlanta.We have over 100 public libraries ,where you use computers for free and thousands of grocery stores to purchase sim cards and phones.
hi Jermaine. sorry for being super late (with this being posted in April and all) First of all, as a Namibian, I enjoy your videos. and second. let me help you clarify that data and cellphone situation . So hear in Namibia, its like this, basically people arent mind readers and expect you to ask to something straight because trying to figure out what you mean doesnt always happen. we do not have an unlimited data plan here, but what you spoke off, unlimited from midnight to 6pm is called super aweh. so if you want that, you would just say "i want to register for super aweh" and you get unlimited data from midnight to 6am, 3 GB, 700 free calling minutes 1500 text messages and 700MB for whatsapp and FB all valid for 7 days only which is N$65. I am nott going to lie, sometimes poeople here can be unhelpful and the queues here needs you to have MAD patience (MY GOODNESS) but miscommunication is also a contributing factor.. Just to ease yout mind. it has nothing to do with you being foreign. WE NAMIBIANS GET TREATED THE SAME AND HONESTLY, I ALMOST CRIED FROM HOW THESE PEOPLE SPEAK TO ME SOMETIMES LOL./
It's normal behaviour here, Namibia's customer service is one o the worst in the world. People are not taught *Emotional Quotient* so they bring their sh*t to work and load it on others.
Jermaine the other ones most probably didn't understand or could not speak English that well...Where as the first encounter with the angry lady you mentioned being rude and having a bad attitude and stuff...it's universal so to speak. Don't care too much about them!
Nope. Just born and lived in Africa my whole life. Also listen to what other Africans say and complain about. There is a pattern. Also, good service does not vary from country to country. It’s more like from business to business. Very micro.
@@azanianbantu I was born in Britain of South African parents. I apologise for bursting your bubble, but the service I get in Johannesburg - a very big city - across the board is second to none in terms of excellence. I've had similar beautiful experiences in Livingstone, Victoria Falls, Gaborone, Maseru, Port Elizabeth, Uitenhage, Jeffreys Bay, Durban, Ballito, Bloemfontein, Cape Town, etc. What you suffer from is a profound sense of racial (assuming you are of African Ancestry) self hatred. I also get a sense that you are not such a well travelled individual, which explains your insular outlook. Africa is a complex and undiminished Continent that is populated by intelligent individuals. It's fools like who reverse our progress as a people.
I had the same experience in Namibia now iam from south Africa and every time I got Namibia I buy a SIM card now pretty much buying a sim card is why different than in South Africa well the whole code thing is stupid AF and there data prices are totally expensive and I asked a lady at a MTC shop for a pin to put my new sim card in she just said it's not my problem do it you're self... Anyway it's a great country and iam glad that I have family from there and I can experience a beautiful nation like Namibia but alot of people that live there needs to chill
Bro! they are just poorly trained in customer care, most african businesses employ mare school leavers with no post high school training in sales positions. Believe me, Namibians are good people! Peace! from Tambo in Zambia!
"Mama said there'd be daze like this!" Yeah, people will be crappy on every continent!! THEIR PROBLEM!! Walk on, darlin, keep your joy intact. Better time to come. We love you. Namaste
The truth our customers service not so good even to us Namibian .but not everywhere thore.always try to connect with some local for better experience . Most of us have unlimited internet at home ,if you find a baddy you could just upload your vivid with ease for free.sorry for that again on behalf of my fellow.
BTW. Try going to Namibian banks 😭🤣🤣. i swear. 10 counters but only 2 operating ones . lol. anyways. GREAT video. hope next time you have a better experience
Im not homophobic but id say maybe they treated you bad because you were acting gay'ish... South Africa is like the only country in Africa to legalise homophobia... maybe they still have a minset that being gay is foolish or something like that .. anyways hope you enjoy there
They don't get a lot of training in Africa. You'll find the worst customer experience there.... people wearing sandals, dragging their feet, slumped over on the counter, bad attitude... its awful LOL :D
On the other hand, no Namibia is not a continent. Therefore, you having said that you do not know how fast the internet is on this continent, came out totally wrong and in a way disrespectful. Please keep your reference specifically in the country you found yourself in. But just to give you an idea, with TN mobile, depending on where one is, one can easily reach a download and and upload speed of around 75mb/s but mostly it is between 5-12mb/s, which is all still enough for most daily work. TN Mobile also have two bundles that offer free internet from 12 midnight, until 6 a.m., absolutely free unlimited 4G coverage. The two bundles cost N$50 ($3.34) and N$60 (4.00). for the 50, one can get 2gb free data and for the 60, one can get 5gb free data and of cause they come with other services. both bundles have a 7 day life-time. But any way, sorry you had to experience the bad service of MTC. Even us Namibians are feed up with it.
Sorry dude, I wonder if it's how you sound to them. You sound great to us but some people in other countries may as well be from the stone age. I hope everything works out my friend! Can you just pre order sim cards off the web before you get to the country of choice? If you need anything dont hesitate to ask bro! We're all here for you. Hope you have a great day! Much love! Peace
lol this is such an ignorant comment. There are plenty of straight men with slightly "feminine" mannerisms and who gives a shit if dude is gay or not .

It's normal behaviour here, Namibia's customer service is one o the worst in the world. People are not taught *Emotional Quotient* so they bring their sh*t to work and load it on others.
Jermaine the other ones most probably didn't understand or could not speak English that well...Where as the first encounter with the angry lady you mentioned being rude and having a bad attitude and stuff...it's universal so to speak. Don't care too much about them!
You should wear a bonnet at night to keep the lint out of your hair
I know some non black Americans who think they're better than us American blacks it's so stupid
that unlimited internet option is called happyhour [even though its 00:00 to 06:00] and it last for a week i don''t why they lied to you
Namibia Looks More Like Pretoria, South Africa
I hate bad customer service! In the Philippines anyone will help you because we are normally friendly people.
Jermaine makes me wanna get braids🤔
Jermaine, I can show you some cool spots too and take you on an electric bicycle tour around the city, hiking trails and cool sunset spots. HMU!
Africa has the worst customer service
It’s not personal
So you've been to all 54 countries in Africa with all their cities, towns, villages and hamlets and have experienced bad customer service.
Nope.
Just born and lived in Africa my whole life.
Also listen to what other Africans say and complain about.
There is a pattern.
Also, good service does not vary from country to country.
It’s more like from business to business.
Very micro.
Yet Africa is a continent not a country.
Especially towards black people
@@azanianbantu I was born in Britain of South African parents. I apologise for bursting your bubble, but the service I get in Johannesburg - a very big city - across the board is second to none in terms of excellence. I've had similar beautiful experiences in Livingstone, Victoria Falls, Gaborone, Maseru, Port Elizabeth, Uitenhage, Jeffreys Bay, Durban, Ballito, Bloemfontein, Cape Town, etc. What you suffer from is a profound sense of racial (assuming you are of African Ancestry) self hatred. I also get a sense that you are not such a well travelled individual, which explains your insular outlook. Africa is a complex and undiminished Continent that is populated by intelligent individuals. It's fools like who reverse our progress as a people.
I had the same experience in Namibia now iam from south Africa and every time I got Namibia I buy a SIM card now pretty much buying a sim card is why different than in South Africa well the whole code thing is stupid AF and there data prices are totally expensive and I asked a lady at a MTC shop for a pin to put my new sim card in she just said it's not my problem do it you're self... Anyway it's a great country and iam glad that I have family from there and I can experience a beautiful nation like Namibia but alot of people that live there needs to chill
Go too telecom
Bro! they are just poorly trained in customer care, most african businesses employ mare school leavers with no post high school training in sales positions. Believe me, Namibians are good people! Peace! from Tambo in Zambia!
I really like the music in your videos! 😀
"Mama said there'd be daze like this!" Yeah, people will be crappy on every continent!! THEIR PROBLEM!! Walk on, darlin, keep your joy intact. Better time to come. We love you. Namaste
The truth our customers service not so good even to us Namibian .but not everywhere thore.always try to connect with some local for better experience . Most of us have unlimited internet at home ,if you find a baddy you could just upload your vivid with ease for free.sorry for that again on behalf of my fellow.
Great video brother. What kind of camera do you use?
BTW. Try going to Namibian banks 😭🤣🤣. i swear. 10 counters but only 2 operating ones . lol. anyways. GREAT video. hope next time you have a better experience
Dude what your background are your parents from Namibia living in the US?
Oh and you literally live down my street.
Hi 👋🏼 feel so sorry for you. Are you still in Windhoek? Would love to show you around.
Liz T hi,i will ask thats help from you,am coming to windhoek from switzerland
G Greogory ok cool. Contact me once you’re around.
Im not homophobic but id say maybe they treated you bad because you were acting gay'ish... South Africa is like the only country in Africa to legalise homophobia... maybe they still have a minset that being gay is foolish or something like that .. anyways hope you enjoy there
Welcome to Namibia🇳🇦😂
I wonder if me, a 300 pound 5 10 white guy from canadian about a few years under than home boy jermaine would be welcome in that part of Africa.
are you from Quebec?
@@bjornsorensen1254 LOL! 😉
@@winstonheath3569 😜
Not with that kind of attitude.
@@bjornsorensen1254 New Brunswick
They don't get a lot of training in Africa. You'll find the worst customer experience there.... people wearing sandals, dragging their feet, slumped over on the counter, bad attitude... its awful LOL :D
That hair is bound to work some where, keep searching.
On the other hand, no Namibia is not a continent. Therefore, you having said that you do not know how fast the internet is on this continent, came out totally wrong and in a way disrespectful. Please keep your reference specifically in the country you found yourself in. But just to give you an idea, with TN mobile, depending on where one is, one can easily reach a download and and upload speed of around 75mb/s but mostly it is between 5-12mb/s, which is all still enough for most daily work. TN Mobile also have two bundles that offer free internet from 12 midnight, until 6 a.m., absolutely free unlimited 4G coverage. The two bundles cost N$50 ($3.34) and N$60 (4.00). for the 50, one can get 2gb free data and for the 60, one can get 5gb free data and of cause they come with other services. both bundles have a 7 day life-time. But any way, sorry you had to experience the bad service of MTC. Even us Namibians are feed up with it.
We just have poor customer service, sorry man
Our bad my guy - some of our people get carried away with their attitudes towards others -
So sorry you had a bad experience.
Sorry dude, I wonder if it's how you sound to them. You sound great to us but some people in other countries may as well be from the stone age. I hope everything works out my friend! Can you just pre order sim cards off the web before you get to the country of choice? If you need anything dont hesitate to ask bro! We're all here for you. Hope you have a great day! Much love! Peace
U just finished that whole pizza 😲😲
Jermaine has some gay tendencies
He doesn't have to be ghetto....thrifting or being preppy is better anyways
@@nosugarnocream8465 he said gay, not ghetto
That's exacy what i thought 😂😂😂
Watching this vid i am tryna convinvce myself if he's gay or not
lol this is such an ignorant comment. There are plenty of straight men with slightly "feminine" mannerisms and who gives a shit if dude is gay or not .
Jealous? Or Craving for him?
Namibia is not a friendly country to foreigners, generally
its not true
my country is one of the most friendly country in africa
🤔
Lol Namibians are friendly..where do you come from
@@verajleejaxa1594 See what I mean?
Very true. I dont know whats wrong with them. Zero customer service
The place you are talking about at the end of the video is 3 circles...... Its great up there ..... One of the best sundowners you can find
