Not Receiving the a service that I am being charged for - Terrrible Line Speed
Last night I was pinging at 444ms, down was 0.42mbps, up was 0.04mbps on an 8mb line.
That is an embarrassment all on it's own. Does anything else really need to be said?
I rent an 8mb ADSL line (Line and ISP from MWEB). Better is not available yet, this is the max that can be offered.
In the last 11 months or more, I have only run at about 6.5mb down for one month, the other 11 have been no where near an 8mb line.
Tickets are opened, then closed, the line runs okay for a day (well okay is at 4.5mbps usually), but it is never resolved properly. Telkom will get the blame, and yes, they are to blame too, but I rent the line from MWEB, I expect MWEB to sort it out (at least within a year).
Terrible that you waste money on a service that you are not receiving.
Good Day Marc,
Thank you for taking the time to raise your concerns.
Our customer care representative has tried making contact with you via telephone.
The line was syncing at 535kbps, before I restarted the provisioning on the Telkom portal. Thereafter, the sync speeds increased to 2215kbps.
Further line testing resulted in the following: "Possible DSL Physical-layer issue is detected.(Please check micro-filter,CPE/Router connections and indoor wiring)"
This points to a possible hardware issue.
Therefore, we need to troubleshoot with you; before we are able to log a line fault to Telkom.
I have arrange a Technical specialist call back for: Fri, 8 Dec 2017, 15:30
Please do confirm if you will be home during the provided time, in order for us to assist you.
We eagerly await your reply.
Kind regards

Good Day Southboyza,
Thank you for your feedback.
The initial feedback from Telkom on the 11th, was that the issue may be cable related.
We have followed up with them this morning and await further feedback, as we can see the line syncing. The sync rates were at 237kbps this morning and is currently at 1534 kbps.
We are awaiting further feedback from Telkom.
Kind regards
