******** Line Hold

My previous ISP account was fully canceled over two weeks ago, but Evotel has still not released the physical circuit/ONT line status on their backend system.

Afrihost is ready to activate my line, but Evotel's system continues to block them. I have submitted support requests and provided the ONT details (SN: ***DD2AB), but there has been zero action. Holding an open-access line captive post-cancellation is a direct failure of service.

Thank you for the reply. The line has been blocked for over two weeks, and my new ISP cannot activate service until you manually clear the lock on my ONT Please confirm the exact date and time this release will be completed today.

I do not need a phone call to discuss this further—I simply need the holding status cleared on my ONT on your backend database. Please update this thread once the line status is marked as 'Released' so my ISP can provision service.
