Slow down speed and slower agent response

consistent speeds of below 0,6MB down while up is over 4Mb on 3 different device rain sim cards, I have dealt with 3 different agents who say the same thing, escalated to network dept months ago, no change. Rain, please do what you say you are doing!

I have asked for someone senior at Rain to contact me, surely this is against CPA? Im paying for something they sell and cant deliver! Below is them admitting its them and that they cant fix it anytime soon!

This is the response i get from Rain:
Hi Rhys

I hope all is well.

Apologies for the delay on getting back to you, please note we are working on a backlog of queries.

We have checked your connection and the site you are connected to, and it’s us not you. The lockdown has caused congestion on certain towers which was impossible to plan for, and unfortunately your are connecting to one of those towers. Given the COVID-19 epidemic, this is a phenomenon that is being experienced by networks all over the world.

We tried to remove you from the network so you can try and connect to a different tower but the device keeps on connecting to the same site (It is your closest site).

Unfortunately this is not something we can solve quickly, and even more so during this lockdown period. This means we cannot remedy your situation now.
We will continue to improve capacity rapidly as soon as the lockdown regulations are relaxed.

I hope you understand and I apologize for inconvenience caused.
