Afrihost *****s my data!

In December Afrihost announced that they will discontinue the double data system they have been running. I was paying R300 / month for 5GB and received 5GB extra every month. They also announced Afrihost Plus, a service that costs R100 / month, with benefits like continuation of double data. They offered a free one month trial for this. So I sent them an email asking them if I will still get 5GB 5GB if I have the Afrihost Plus service running beginning of January (I get my data beginning of each month). The reply to my question is attached. So I did received my 10GB data beginning of January, but after telling them I will not be continuing with the Afrihost Plus service (i did not want to get billed R100 after my free trial), they removed the 5GB that they allocated beginning of January. They left me unable to do my work and after more than 10 emails and tickets logged, nobody has been able to sort this out. I wasted 2 hours of my time on the phone with them yesterday, nothing came of it. Afrihost also mistakenly billed me R100 for a replacement sim that should have been free. It took 3 months of complaints for them to realise their mistake.

Hello aslourens,

We are sorry that you are not satisfied with the service you received.

When Afrihost Plus+ is cancelled, any benefits that were allocated at the beginning of the month should have remained active. Unfortunately an error was made and this has been rectified. You will have access tot he additional data for the remainder of the month. However, please note that other benefits like 2 for 1 topups and DSL Soft Cap will not be available for the remainder of the month.

If you should have any further queries relating to this complaint, please email us on ***

Kind regards

The Afrihost Team

Best regards,
