Non Satisfactory Customer Service

<p>Between the 30th of January and 3rd of February, I logged an online query to Telkom to move my landline. After this was logged, I received a notification that I will be phone within 48 hours. On 9 February I was still not contacted and phone them directly. The assistant (Phumla) said there was no order loaded and she assisted me loading an order for a new land line after we relocated. She said the line will be installed within 7 - 14 days (ref ********** 58). On 15 February I phoned Telkom again to follow up. The assistant I spoke to said that my order was cancelled. I am very dissatisfied that someone assumes to cancel my order.! This assistant proceeded to assist me in a friendly manner and loaded the order again (ref ********** 54). She could unfortunetely not assist me in scheduling an earlier installation date. She said I had to email. I have logged on to the Telkom site to reschedule and phone but to no avail. Now I am hoping that Hello Peter can give Telkom some fire to provide me with satisfactory service. In essence, if my order of the 9th was processed as it should have been, I would have had my line. The most problamatic is that I use this for my business, so my business internet and contact has been stationery for over 2 weeks.</p>

So, after my last post on 23 February, a technician was here on 28 February to install the line. They had to come back to set up the line from the nearest Telkom tower to our garden, thus installing the actual wood pole and line. They came back the within the week and planted the pole. Now it is 13 March and no technician has been here since. Still not line, no internet, no calls to be made, and we are trying to run a business! Can Telkom please realize the urgency of us trying to contribute to the economic scale of South Africa and get their s****s into gear, which will also in turn contribute to the economic scale of South Africa...companies being productive - is that so hard to ask? I received an SMS to say the installation will occur today (13/03/2017)...it is now 17h34 and no technician has been here to install the line. Seriously, I have not idea why we need to struggle with every single Telkom product, but may I urge you to kindly get this sorted out.
