No internet for a month and still waiting while we pay for it

As usual a terrible experience with terrible service. The first time we signed up with telkom last year June it took us 6 weeks to get internet. Router got struck by lightning at the beginning of Dec last year and a simple problem of replacing the router resulted in us not having internet again. Telkom came out and said problem was fixed... but it wasn't. 1 month later we are still waiting for them to come out again to fix what they didn't fix before. We are still paying for this service for which we can't even use the internet. Every time you call Telkom they say they will escalate it - which never happens. Someone will call back - which never happens. When you ask to speak to a manager you get hung up on. Apparently it has now been escalated to Sean (no surname or other contact details can be given by the call centre) and let's hope I hear back from him. Landline is ********** . Escalation ref: ********** .

Reviewer Update
Hi Noleen. No. It has still not been repaired and I have just gotten off the phone with Akhona Fana (an Assurance Manager at the PE call centre) who says that they can't do anything until someone replies to their escalation which was done on the 5th of January. I don't think anyone is going to reply to this escalation and if it takes over 2 weeks for someone to reply to an escalation what are Telkom's escalations actually worth. Thandokazi from I don't even know which customer care branch assured me she would call me back to discuss the progress made with Open Serve, but I am still waiting for that call too. I have had no internet since the 8th of December. I am at my wits end. I think Telkom has the worst service I have ever experienced and will never trust the brand again. My line is ********** . My escalation ref is ********** . Can someone do somehting,
