Poor customer service

I am extremely disappointed with the service I have received from RAIN. It has now been over four days and six hours since I made payment, and my services have still not been restored. Despite multiple attempts to communicate, I have received no meaningful response or resolution.

When I used the online portal, I was advised that someone would call me or at least provide a turnaround time—neither of which happened. I was further instructed to send proof of payment to a designated email address, which I did, along with screenshots to show my repeated attempts to reach out. Since then, I have sent four additional emails, yet none of them have been acknowledged, not even with an automated response.

I also tried calling RAIN directly, only to be told the same scripted line: “someone from billing will call you.” To this hour, no one has contacted me, and my issue remains unresolved. Each time I reach out, a reference number is generated, but these numbers are useless—they provide no updates, no details, and no indication of progress.

This experience has been absolutely horrible. I have never dealt with such poor service before. RAIN has failed on every level—customer service, communication, accountability, and reliability. I once recommended RAIN to others, but after this, I cannot in good faith do so anymore.

To put it plainly: RAIN has no understanding of what customer service means. Not even the courtesy of acknowledging an email. Just silence. This is beyond frustrating—it is unacceptable.

Good day Rain

I see your copy and paste response. That is OK at least it is something. This is not the response that I'm currently looking for at this point of my complaint journey. I have read others complaints today and we are all in a similar boat. My 2 hour period that I was advised I was going to be attending to is coming to an end.

I hope this matter and others matters are attended to.

Regards
Khethiwe

Good day,

I have taken a look at the invoices that you are referring to. Money out stand was R1250, R950 was paid that brings the amount to R300 outstanding. Please email me said invoice

Good day Rain

I have tried to investigate what you are saying. Your accounting seems to be wrong, I'm not sure on which end on this side or the other side. Please could you get someone to communicate with me and I will send all proof of payment. Proving what is been claiming on your end or rain rather is wrong. Or misleading.

Regards
