Morning…. I may even write a book by Christmas at the rate this is going… Okay so no solution from either MWeb nor Evotel (Web Africa) Fond something very interesting on MWebs page. More than 90 outages just for this month alone. https://help.mweb.co.za/outages. Now i have a question. So, i can't complain about MWeb and Elvotel’s service as there is none. When they are selling you their product you are the most important person ever… They will call you endlessly without fail till you do the “Verbal Contract” witch they can’t seem to supply… Only other time they will phone you is if your bill is in arears…. For those two scenarios there is an ample workforce… Now let anything go wrong…. On the client side… First of all, to het hold of anyone at either the Fiber provider or the ISP…. Kept the best for last…. I’m currently paying for a service that I’m not getting… I have to spend on average between R500 and R700 a day on data to do my work so I can generate income… Now I’d like to cancel the service that I’m paying for and not getting guess what. I’m expected to pay a fee of R900 to cancel as described by the agent from MWeb yesterday. And all this fine print is in a little link hidden in the corner of their webpage… It sickens me that people are treated like this!!!1 3. CONTRACT TERM AND TERMINATION 13.1 The agreement shall commence upon the activation date and endure a term period of 12-months on the contract rate, thereafter the contract will revert to a month-to-month package on the standard Vumatel fibre rate at the time the 12-month contract ends. 13.2 In the event of early termination of the contract, you will be liable for the outstanding pro-rata amount of the installation, connection, and the remaining balance of the monthly subscription (as applicable) should you cancel the contract within the first 12-month period from the service activation date.
