Poor Service Delivery
Again I turn to Hello Peter to review Rain Internet Service provider. We have been strugling with connection for weeks and we were a couple of days late to pay our subscription, but they were fast to cut the service. Yet in the weeks leading up to month end we could not enjoy coverage as there was none. Even logging a service call via the Rain 5G app does not seem to help as there is no telephonic reply to calls being logged. It is by far the worst run sercice provider ever. I write this to lett people know out there to avoid this service as they take your money, but the promise of uninterupted coverage are filled..

03 Mar 2023, 19:13Best part off it all we are situated not even 600m from the nearest Rain tower to us, but the one we are being directed to is 4.1km away from our device. Apparently the tower 600m away from us is absolute so we are unable to enjoy 5g coverage and again no phone calls we have to do all the phoning and waste our airtime that cost us money when we should not be costing anything as apaying customer we should receive the calls not make the calls

04 Mar 2023, 20:41Guess we will be reversing our payment and you can come collect your device at your cost. This is pathetic. Going on two days and you just cant seem to have the problem resolved or even compensate for the inconvenience.

06 Mar 2023, 10:17Do not bother, we are reversing our payment. It has been more than 48hours we had to switch to mobile data just to function. You may send someone to collect your device at your cost. I will advocate where ever and however I can about the poor service delivery, the incapability of your workforce not being able to solve the technical issues. Not to mention that the only communication we receive is via the HelloPeter platform, to date we have had no telephonic conversations with any person from Rain. It seems that Rain is Run and adminstrated by AI(Artifitial Intelegence).

06 Mar 2023, 10:57Please ensure that cancellation is processed on your end with immediate effect, I do not see why we have to now play technical support for your incompetence. All funds to be refunded, you are in complete breach of the National Consumers act, for 4 weeks now were we unable to enjoy the 5G service as advertised by Rain, for 4 weeks now we have been unable to enjoy any service as advertised by Rain, now you require of me to play Technical Self Support because no one there is capable of figuring out what is going on. I will post this to all social media showing the South African Public the type of service delivered by Rain.

06 Mar 2023, 12:58Again a full hour have passed and no response receuved. Note that should you send a courier to collect your device will we NOT release the device until we have received full refund. Your service is a joke, your understanding of Customer Satisfaction as well as Standard Opperational Agreements are clealry undefined in that customers are not getting what they paid for. Not to mention people still being charged for services that they have cancelled months even years after cancellation. This also clearly evidence of lack of managing in your billings department. At this present moment Rain is a mirror reflection of eskom, high charging fees but zero coverage or service

06 Mar 2023, 15:55First you say you will process the refund once it has veen collected by the courier, now you change it be once the device has been tested. Does anyone there actually give a damn about the frustration we had to endure and still en dure and then you have the oddacity to come and through around terms and conditions when you could not even fill one simple condition of ensuring a faster turn around time on down time fornthe end user, whom has now had to elicit responses from your company by using his mobile data. The device will be released once the funds are reflecting in our account.

07 Mar 2023, 14:14So we start again, I will not release the device if the money is not reflecting in my account by 09:00 on Wednesday the 08th March 2023. As per the agreement with Grace in Customer Service. I have no problem returning the device but I am not willing to wait a day longer for Rain to decide what policies they like to enforce, where was the policy on customer satisfaction, the policy on ensuring customers enjoy 5G coverage, where was Rain when these service level agreements was not upheld. You have my answer.. If you believe you can endure the negative reviews for much longer then be my guest.

08 Mar 2023, 20:51They were meant as sarcasm, as the service we received was utter disgrace for what a customer had to endure, your company need more training in propper communication with your customers, your infrastructure needs a complete overhaul. Your Staff, management, board of trustees are illequiped to call them self a leader in telecomunications. Your service was pathetic not to mention your turnaround time for technical resolutions. I will not remove this from my HelloPeter reviews and hope that every person out there make themselves aware of the ugly future they may have with rain.
