Stuck in Fibre Limbo

Metrofibre recently installed fibre in our area. I ordered a fibre package using Mweb as the service provider. A Metrofibre technician came to my house to do the installation, but found a physical problem. Fair enough, so I contacted Metrofibre. No, sorry, they can't talk to me (but it was YOUR technician who came to my house??!) I had to contact Mweb.

On MWeb, however, the order just remains stuck on "Submitted to fibre provider." So now I am stuck in limbo. Really pathetic, execrable service and ridiculous red tape. Perhaps they should rename themselves to MetroCircus?

Just to clarify: the problem was with the Metrofibre installation, not with MWeb. Both the boxes had previously been installed, but when the technician came out, he found there was some physical issue between the box and the street. Now clearly this has to be resolved by Metrofibre, except when I sent them an email to query the status, I was informed they may not speak to me. Absolutely ****** ridiculous!!! It's YOUR installation that's faulty, Metrofibre!!

Here is the order number from MWeb: X***
