Bad service

We joined Rain in March. The wifi is extremely intermittent event hough you sit next to the router. I was told that 30 devices can be connected without issues. Yet, connecting only 2 makes it intermittent. When you contact them, you only get a chatbot! A patronizing chatbot at that! I've got multiple open tickets for the last week with ZERO contact from support! I'm now reporting to ICASA.

We've been struggling since midday with signal again. Running speedtest.net has been between 0.81 & 2.23. Why does it go well for a while & then back to this???

We already did that! And it's not improving anything.
You reset the network and 18hours it's fine, then boom, intermittent.
We've cut down trees, cleared line of sight. What else?
We were told 30 devices can connect AND stream together without issues...5 devices, 1 streaming and ALL signal drop!
That's not what I signed up for!!! Also, I've been trying to move my debit order on RainGo, but can't. I've requested help, but the debit order is run EVERYDAY costing me money! With the long weekend I have received no payments yet as Capitec doesn't update on a weekend or public Holiday. Who will pay my bank fees? Or do I send Rain an invoice?

Then STOP putting debit orders through! I've been trying since Friday to get my dare changed and the I was NOT in arrears!

I have NO means to contact you. I have to speak to a robot. This robot has sent NUMEROUS emails requesting someone to contact me, but NO! I only get a ticket number and ZERO calls.

ICASA will now hear from me!
