Urgent: Ongoing Service Failure and Unresolved Issue

Dear Rain Customer Support,

I am writing to formally express my deep frustration with the repeated failures in your service and after-sales support. Over the past 5 days, I have logged multiple calls, visited your store four times in one week, and yet, I remain without internet.

During my recent interaction with your team, I was assisted by **Lerato**, who was unable to resolve the issue. At one point, I was wrongly informed that I had two routers—despite having no knowledge of an additional device. The constant scanning of boxes without a clear solution further highlights the lack of competence in handling technical support matters.

Additionally, your promises of assistance have consistently fallen through. Each time I contact your team, I am assured that support is on the way, yet no resolution follows. To make matters worse, I have not been refunded, and after collecting a new router today, it remains inactive.

This level of service is unacceptable. The inconsistency in connectivity, especially near billing dates, raises further concerns about network stability. Your after-sales support appears entirely ineffective, with staff unable to provide meaningful solutions.

I expect immediate action to resolve my issue, including: 1. **Proper activation of my router** without further delays. 2. **A full refund or compensation** for the ongoing inconvenience. 3. **A clear explanation** of why this issue has persisted for so long.

Failure to address this promptly may leave me with no choice but to escalate this matter further. I urge you to treat this complaint with the urgency it deserves.

I look forward to a swift and satisfactory resolution.

As I stand today, 06/05 after being told 2 hours I still have no WIFI.

My biggest issue is there is no consistency with you guys. You are saying 24hrs and that’s not was said in store.

In actual fact both Kopano and Robin said it should be fine in 2 hours and the other said it should be immediately but let’s give it 2 hours.

Now what?

Well unfortunately due to your incompetence and lack of problem solving I am unable to do that as I had to leave my home to find a place to work as I have lost money due to Rain.

So that would be a negative from me.

That is not an option.

Surely you have that detail from collecting the devices yesterday? No?

When I get home that router needs to be working - I will be going further with this situation.

So with everything that has transpired with rain, granted my router eventually started working after 24hrs of still logging calls - I sit with an entire weekend of me logging calls because Rains connectivity has been shocking. What exactly is the issue here? Check your system and see how many times I have logged an escalation today.

So once again unreliable but I am expected to pay full amount at the end of this month????

Help me make sense of that!

Rain is really testing my patience..

You guys have disconnected me and now I see I am supposed to pay R1600? Why is that? You credited me due to incompetence. I paid in R380 and my bill was supposed to be R900 odd rands and now it says R1600.

Some ****en explain and reconnect

Hi,

I am still in arrears and NOBODY HAS CONTACTED ME..

Why am I in arrears? You credited R625 and now you’re charging me that again?

What nonsense is this?

You need to sort it out as a matter of urgency because if I experience this again I can tell you now something really bad is going to happen.
