FIBRE - NO Redundancy NO speed

AFRIHOST advertise they have REDUNDANCY and state they don't rely on ONE or TWO cables and yet I have NO speed after only 2 cables have failed. Now at 16h19 on 20 Jan 2020 the last update from Afrihost website was 19h00 yesterday 19 Jan They state here https://www.afrihost.com/microsites/network/international/ Redundacy - Because we don’t rely on only one or two International Backhaul Cables, we are able to operate a more robust and redundant network. This means that in the event that a cable cut or other issue occurs, you won’t be left dead in the water.

Reviewer Update
It has taken 5 days but finally on Tuesday 21 Jan Afrihost honoured the REDUNDANCY they advertise, utilising a 3rd cable and providing the full speed my package offers. https://www.afrihost.com/microsites/network/international/ Thank you.
