Bad Service

Mweb, I have honestly reached the end of my patience.

I paid R570 on 28 July for my line to be upgraded from 20Mbps to 40Mbps. Instead of receiving the upgrade I paid for, the 20Mbps service I already had was simply activated, and I have been going back and forth trying to get this resolved.

Last month, I was even contacted by a manager. Unfortunately, instead of resolving the issue or explaining why the upgrade I paid for was not completed, I was simply asked to pay again.

Why should I make another payment when the original payment has still not been properly resolved?

I work from home and rely on a stable, adequate internet connection for my job. This has gone on for far too long, and I should not have to repeatedly chase Mweb for something I have already paid for.

I did not want to take this public, but after repeatedly trying to resolve this through the proper channels, I feel like I have no choice.

Mweb, please investigate the original payment, explain exactly what happened, and provide a proper resolution instead of asking me to pay again.

Hello Mishkah We understand why you’ve reached the end of your patience, especially after paying for an upgrade and then finding that your service remained on the previous speed. Having to repeatedly follow up, particularly when you rely on your connection to work from home, makes this even more frustrating.We’ve reached out to the team who manage all Vuma Reach upgrades, and they are actively reviewing the upgrade request and the account details. They’ll advise on the next steps as soon as possible so that we can get clarity on what happened and how we can move this forward.We appreciate you raising this publicly after trying to resolve it through the usual support channels. We’ve made sure the matter is with the relevant team for review rather than asking you to start the process again.We’ll continue supporting the matter while the team completes their review. 
Kind regards,
