Cool Ideas 😡

Paid for WiFi – No Service & No Accountability

I am extremely frustrated with the level of service from Cool Ideas.

Payment for my WiFi was made at 07:26 this morning, yet I still have no internet access. I have called twice and the first time the agent said he could see payment on the system and was promised a callback, which never happened.

After following up again, and being on the phone almost half a hour I was told the issue is with Vumatel. However, I do not pay Vumatel — I pay Cool Ideas. It is unacceptable to pass the responsibility when my contract is with you. Managing your network providers is your responsibility, not mine.

I have now been left without internet for hours despite payment being made, with no proactive communication, no resolution and no accountability.

I expect: • Immediate restoration of my service • Clear communication and a timeline for resolution • Compensation/credit for the downtime, as I am paying for a service not being delivered

This level of service is unacceptable and needs urgent attention.

Good day Jaquelyn, Thank you for your feedback, and apologies for any inconvenience you may have encountered. Rest assured, our Customer Service Supervisor is escalating this case to Vumatel as the payment still reflects as "pending" on their portal. This is what's preventing your service voucher from being activated. Our team will contact you with further updates today. Your patience and understanding mean the world to us, and we appreciate you allowing us the opportunity to resolve this matter for you. Kind Regards,The Cool Ideas Team
