Line down for 5 days

My landine/ADSL line has been down for 5 days. I've been trying to chase as to why it's taking so long and all the the call centre can tell me that's its at testing center and no techinician as been allocated. I can't understand how long it takes to test a line and allocate a techician. I've also established that the outage is due to OpenServe laying fibre in the area and the guys while digging, snapped the cable . This is very frustrating and I require some urgency to this matter.

Thanks for responding. No reference number logged on ***. I just checked your line and I am not picking up any defects, it shows you are currently connected with Afrihost. I have modified your port profile and enabled fast path, kindly reboot your modem, monitor and if you are still experiencing issues, please reply with the description of the problem you are experiencing.

Regards

9 days and counting since my telkom voice line is down. Extremely frustrated, giving me every reason for wanting to cancel my account.
