Very disappointed in poor backup
<p>I am a very long-standing Mweb customer and have been very satisfied with the service I have received. However in the past 4 months I have experienced frequent service interrutions and my ADSL running at dial-up speed. I should imagine I have made over 15 calls to their technical helpline where one always receives friendly and apparent helpful service. Last week I was told categorically that there was nothing wrong with my line and there was a fault in my wifi router. As a resut I bought a new router which, during these economic times, I coud ill afford. THE FAULT CONTINUED! I phoned again and was told there was definitely something wrong with the line. Needless to say I was ver angry. I hire the ADSL line from Mweb so hold them totally responsible for any maintenance needed to the line on Telkokm's part. I received a call from Telkom last Friday and saying a technician would be sent. On Sunday my landline also went dead. Yesterday (Tues 24th May) I again phoned Mweb and received an sms saying that a fault had been logged with Telkom but have heard nothing from Telkom. I am definitely going to expect a rebate on the monthly fees I have been paying for a service I am not receiving. MWEB NEEDS TO IMPROVE THE FOLLOW UP TO COMPLAINTS ABOUT ADSL LINES WHEN LEASED FROM THEM. </p>
Good Day Phillip
Thank you for taking the time to raise your concerns.
Our Customer care representative has since been in contact with the account holder.
He provided confirmation that the consultant did not advise him to purchase a new router, however it was meant for him to test with an alternate router.
A line fault has been escalated to Telkom and we will follow up with them, before providing you further feedback.
Please bear with us during this time.
Kind regards

Good Day Mr Godawa,
Our team made contact with you on Wednesday to confirm that the fault has been escalated to Telkom senior management, as a result a technician was assigned to the fault.
The fault is within the Telkom service level agreement of 7 to 10 working days, however we have requested that they prioritise it.
As advised to you via telephone, we manage the relationship with Telkom and cannot make adjustments on the infrastructure ourselves.
Previous line faults logged where in January and March of this year. The January fault was not linked to intermittent connectivity. The March fault was for the Telkom voice line and intermittent ADSL service.
The current fault is also for the Telkom voice line and intermittent ADSL.
Our Records indicate intermittent connectivity on your account starting around the 20th of March, which is being addressed by Telkom.
Please be advised that our Hello Peter Team ensures that contact is made with you, until a suitable resolution is found.
We will do all we can to assist in the resolution of the fault and have now tried calling you today. A voice mail message was left, with feedback from Telkom; stating that a Technician should be out to you by tomorrow.
Kind regards
