Stay away from bitco!

Had my fibre point installed a week ago by vumatel, i then recieved an email from bitco accounts that my order is being processed and the whole process should take about 48 hours. After 3 days no response from bitco about my router order so i phoned the accounts department and they put me through to a guy called kyle and he says he hasnt received any router request for me yet and that i should use my existing router so long.... week later my interents not working and i contacted the support , they only have one engineer working (bad) name mdu he says he will call me back and im still waiting. People stay away as this is another telkom in the making. Bad customer service bad support. And yes im still waiting for my router to arrive. Im cancelling my service come end of the month.

Good day Yazeed

My apologies for the delay in providing feedback.

I have discussed the situation with our FTTH manager and I understand that Greg has been in contact with you regarding the installation of the router. There was a delay on our side and it should have been communicated to you. 
We have also addressed the situation internally and we are looking to streamline the process. The router has been handover to the couriers to deliver to you.

We honestly do apologise for the inconvenience caused.

Kind regards,

so after getting my router a week later, i had issues where i couldn't browse to netflix or showmax everything else was fine. i have since canceled my service with Bitco and moved to another ISP. The support from Bitco support was non existent or not up to standard in terms of debugging an issue, all they said was they don't block Netflix or Showmax and there are no faults on the line. Well i switched ISP's and no issues :-) everything is working 100%. good luck all and good bye
