Need support on a billing account

Im really disappointed with mweb. Last night I had to hold on for 90 solid minutes and lost 90 minutes airtime to log a call with you,. Today I hold on for a solid 60 min airtime to speak to a consultant to change my package. After 60 min holding on they drop the call. I tried to speak to a consultant on the mweb app...NO GO...i must just hold on...FOR HOW LONG, I need to change my package from a 50/25 mps line to a 30/30 mps line. I cannot afford the R729 anymore. IF you cannot assist me then I will have to search for another service provider that can accomodate meand I dont waste date and airtime on holding on for ever. Can Someone please contact me. Thanks

Morning,
I think I really passed my patience with MWEB. Today is Friday. Im waiting since Wednesday to get assistance. NOBODY contacted me. I phoned yesterday(Thursday) spoke to a lady at sales and according to her she cannot assist because there is an open call logged and I have to wait 24 Hours. Is it this difficult to assist a client and to keep clients that is loyal to you for years. Your service is really pathetic if you can call it service.. I have to hold onto a line for ever and is wasting money and time. I tried phoning this morning and again have to hold the line for ever for 50minutes and started at caller nr 3. Eventually spoke to agent. No she cannot assist me I have to speak to another department and cannot downgrade????? Why on earth cannot I downgrade my package. If I cannot afford the current package then I think its time to move on to another service provider that can give better service and a cheaper package. PLEASE ASSIST

Absolute PATHETIC !!!! I now waiting for 5 days to be assisted. Not on the phone with consultants or on this platform. When I phone I get put through from one person to another, wasting my airtime and data and time. If you cannot assist me please let me know and I will look for another service provider that will happily assist me and get new customers.

Hello Cornelia. 
 It’s completely understandable how frustrating and exhausting this has been, especially after waiting so long for what should have been a quick and straightforward change. Having to keep following up without seeing clear progress can be incredibly discouraging, and this experience is far from the standard that should be delivered. 

Please be assured that the profile is actively being worked on, and the team handling the request is continuing to prioritise getting this resolved. An update will be sent via email soon to confirm progress and advise on the next steps. 

Should anything further be needed in the meantime, a direct message can be sent so this can be followed up without delay. 

Kind regards,
Mweb Team
