Pay for nothing. No service at all

I am extremely frustrated with the service I am receiving from MWEB. First, I had to wait more than four weeks for a SIM swap to be completed. During this time I was repeatedly told that the SIM had to be activated by Telkom. After four weeks MWEB eventually did a SIM swap. After the SIM swap the service worked properly for about two weeks. However, I am paying for an uncapped 20 Mbps LTE line and most of the time I only receive speeds of around 3 Mbps. On the 1st of the month the speed suddenly returned to normal, but shortly afterwards it dropped again to around 3 Mbps. I have already logged multiple complaints with MWEB but the problem is still not resolved. It is very frustrating to pay for a 20 Mbps service but only receive 3 Mbps. Please can this matter be investigated and resolved urgently.

This is not the first time.
When a started with Mweb I waited almost a month so MWeb can just tell me I need a SIM swap.
After the SIM swap it worked for twee weeks and then it started. On the 1st of this month evening was 💯 but after a week it is back to almost nothing.
I requested credit for the month I was paying for nothing. I got a ref number but no one is getting back to me.
Look at my chats and you can see what kind of service MWeb is giving there clients
