No rush at all to assist existing and loyal customer

I recently moved into a new house . I had Metrofibre through Afrihost at my previous residence and requested a migration to the new residence. However after receiving the key for my new house, I discovered that the previous tenants took the ONT box with them.

I immediately contacted Afrihost to try and resolve. After a lot of back and forth I got told MetroFibre would need to contact the previous tenants to get the ONT back and if they could not a new installation would be requested

This back and forth has been going on for a week now, with me doing the follow up the whole time.

I do not see why I have to wait for the previous tenants mistake, especially after I have been the one actively contacting the ISP. MetroFibre seem to have not rush and I am certain I will not be reimbursed by either Afrihost or MetroFibre for the cost of my data, needed to be able to work

This is very bad and disappointing service , after I was so excited to keep my business with Afrihost and MetroFibre

Your office, in Centurion, is literally a few minutes away from my house. I am willing to just to go collect an ONT from there, as there is no reasonable way it can take this long to get sorted

Reviewer Update
I do not understand why I need to afford more time. To help your investigation along:
-previous tenants took ONT with them.
-I contacted Afrihost on Wednesday the 28th to inform them
-I was informed that Metrofibre would need to retrieve the ONT from previous tenants
-I was informed that previous tenants line/service would then need to be cancelled
-I was then informed that a new order for ONT would need to be placed

Any further details needed ?

I am at the point of wanting to cancel my service with Afrihost (and by doing so, my service with MetroFibre)

It is not my fault or mistake that the previous tenants took the ONT yet it is being made my problem and leaving my with money out of pocket, with having to constantly load data

This is ridiculous
