Fiber down again!!!! Disgusted customer

I too am working remotely and am Unable to do so as my fiber has been down since 12am last night.

I then found another email address on google and mailed them this morning at 10am and received no response. Not even a thank you for your mail. I pay these people R999 every month.

Below is my email sent to ***.

Hi

Can you kindly advise me why the fiber is slow again in wetton/Ottery- Cape Town. This is becoming a common problem. Last night it was off since 12pm. I can’t believe my service provider would put us through this during this time or allow Vumatel to do this.

This is probably the 3rd time I’m two weeks!!!! I need to work from home- it’s essential for my family and for our economy.

I am going to report this to the authorities/ the regulators-this is day light *******. Shame on you cell c! To be capitalizing on people during a pandemic.

If this problem happens one more time I am moving to another service provider and asking my entire neighborhood to move with me and sign a petition to have Vumatel removed or another fiber service put in place.

This is getting out of hand.

I await your response.

The account is in the name of ***x Id number: ************

Regards ,

Good day Ziyaad Follentine 

Kindly note that the West African Cable System (Wacs) is broken again. Other cables have taken some of the load, but speeds may be affected again, depending on ISP. Due to this some customers are experiencing increased latency and poor speeds because of the break.

Hi

My fibre has been off all day, not even slow. It’s frustrating to spend money on data when I pay for fibre.
