No Telephone line for almost 2 months

<p>I reported my Telkom line as faulty in the beginning of January this year, the line was at that stage DEAD. But before i reported it there was a lot of scrabeling and all kind of noises which i thought it would come right and did not report it until about 8 days after that the whole line was dead and then only i reported it. Telkom reacted about 5 days after the complain and said they are working on it. Telkom send me a sms and said that it was in progress and standing at 75% they are working on it. After a couple of days i phoned them and ask what is going on and the reply, we are working on it more days went by and i asked my son to phone them, same story, my wife phoned them after a couple of days, the same story. Then without phoning me a telkom guy was at my house, i had to rush from Vereeniging to get him at my house hoping that my long waited days are over! bad news! he could not fix it and said all is well and right from my side but the internet cable has a fault on it and he reported it himself (nice guy) Telkom send me a sms and said my line is up and going!! but since day one it is DEAD and still as we speak, i tried to send then a complain again but the system tells me that ther is a fault reported, but nothing has happend since then and now, they said that they would reimburse me for the time that the phone is not working but in the meantime they also send me a invoice for payment, but it is down now for almost 2 months,</p> <p>I work from home using the Internet and that is mr bread and butter, i am making use of my cellphone via hotspot tedering and that is costing me a lot of money, +- 2 gigs a day and costing +- R145 a day via Vodacom, make a calculatation for a;most 2 monts x R145 a day???</p> <p>I think Telkom is *****ing money from a lot of people working the way they do and that is a shame that a huge company like telkom is *****ing from everybody rich, poor, old and young and everybody that has problems like i do gets talked into: "We are working on it" with a progress remark that means nothing!!</p>
