You just cannot make contact with Mweb for activation assistance

Took an uncapped MTN LTE package. Router delivered on the 21st Aprhil 2026, I still don't not have any internet connection on the 7th May 2026. And the have taken more than there monthly subscription. I have spent more than R300 trying to sort this out and numerous online chats that take nearly 2 hours to respond to your chat request, even if you together to chat nothing comes of it. I have been with Mweb for many years never missing a payment and now this terrible service. I want to cancel and get my money back but even that seems impossible. Good luck if you get any better service.
