No internet. Terrible service

Rain!!!! Ive been struggling with slow to no internet speeds for months now. The matter is not getting resolved. A lady from Rain phoned me on monday and couldnt get the problem sorted. She then said to me she must talk to her technicians to find out if its the tower or my router thats the problem. She said she would contact me yesterday with a conclusion,but i still havent heard from her and am let yet again for days without no internet,she said that they will sort it out on my bill.... Im asking one last time if you could get a technician to phone me, and to resolve this matter today still, as my patience is running out. Please get someone to contact me who actually knows what they are doing, and who actually cares about service gor their clients. Otherwise im cancelling my subscription. Ive really had it!!!! Enough is enough!!!!!

I just tried. It says the site cant be reached. Dont know is it becaise the internet is so slow or what. Can you not do speed tests from your side?

Hi Rain. Ive really tried everything,moved the router all over the house. I only get 3mb/s, yet this morning it ran for a couple of hours 34mb/s, and then it just went back to 3mb/s where it constently stays, or no connection whatsoever. Could your technician mamed Allan please call me, as he knows about the issues ive been having for months already, and he is very helpful. Somehow something must be done... cant you guys switch me to the 4G tower which is closer. Wont that be the best alternative, or wont it work? Please call me so that we can discuss the problem and get it sorted out once and for all, because im losing a lot of business, due to not getting my emails in time,etc due to no internet. Please please please help me, im desperate

My dbm is 79, so thats not the issue. I dont understand,the AI on watsapp says im connected to the 4g tower. You say im connected to the 5g tower. Should i not be connected to the 4g tower perhaps, as ive heard from Rain that im actually just just out of 5g coverage,by about 100m or so. Is that not maybe where the problem lays?

Ive rebooted again. My router is connected on the 4g option. My dbm is 77 and my internet speed on the router shows sometimes 0mb sometimes 1mb. So as i say i have no internet and the problem isnt where my router is situated. The problem is its not connecting to the tower properly somehow. My friend just up the road has a 60mb line with Rain and his internet is also running at 9mb. So thats not right. Theres a big issue here which needs to be resolved asap, otherwise you are unfortunately gonna loose a lot of clients

Hi there. I just want to say thanks a million to Lacon for her proffesionalism. She is by far the beat service Ive gotten from rqin. My internet speed is back to 30mb/s. I was so happy that i upgraded to the 60mb line and paid upfront pro rata,however i see my speed is still only 30mb/s. Please could i ask if Lacon could contact me again, so that we can just get my speed activated please. Thanks once again. Great service!!!! 10/10
