Horrible experience getting fibre installed

MetroFibre has been nothing short of useless. Since 30 December 2025, I have been chasing them for a simple fibre installation and have been sent from pillar to post with zero results. I have contacted them over 17 times, and not once has anyone bothered to give the correct date and time for installation. Every single enquiry ends with the same lie: We will send the team.” No team arrives. No update is given. No follow-up happens. Ever. This is not a delay this is gross incompetence and complete disregard for customers. The lack of communication and accountability is shocking. MetroFibre clearly has no respect for people’s time or money. If this is the level of service before installation, I can only imagine how disastrous it would be once you’re locked into a contract. Save yourself the frustration and avoid MetroFibre at all costs. I regret choosing them and would never recommend this company to anyone.

Dear Reaobaka

The contractors will be in contact with you to confirm. Unfortunately, we cannot confirm on their behalf, as well as due to the late hour.
