reported a broken/damaged Telkom cable

<p>TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN.</p> <p> </p> <p>Good day,</p> <p> </p> <p>PLEASE REFER TO REFERENCE NO: 786CTK180417.</p> <p>Phone number: 014 ********** .</p> <p>Address: 86 Wildevy Ave, Protea Park, Rustenburg.</p> <p>Account holder: D.R.L. Frost.</p> <p> </p> <p>I reported a broken/damaged Telkom cable almost a month ago.</p> <p>I have since made 6 phone calls to the number 10210, each time I get the same response that I have</p> <p>reported the cable damage and that a technician will phone me on my cell phone when they are in the area,</p> <p>to date I have not received one phone call from anybody. I have even reported that I have seen exactly</p> <p>the position of the damaged cable but even this does not seem to make it any easier for Telkom to respond.</p> <p>I am sure there are probably other users in the nearby area who are experiencing the same problem.</p> <p>This is exceptionally poor service from Telkom – in the meantime I am still paying for the Telkom line which I cannot use,</p> <p>but if I should slip just one payment Telkom would be very quick to terminate my service.</p> <p> </p> <p>Can someone please take this mail seriously and try to do something to repair the damaged cable ASAP.</p>

I see they did dig a hole 2 days ago were the cable is damage, and just left it as is (for how long??????), still no Telkom service.

Let me please explain to you my frustration, we use Telkom's line for Wi-Fi network via Web Africa, now we do not have any network and must use our own data on our Cell phones ext., so we Have to PAY TELKOM, WEB AFRICA AND A LOT OF MONEY TO VODACOM FOR DATA, and I don’t think for one moment Telkom will re-in burse us all the money we lost............ PLEASE JUST FIX THE LINE.

Thank you

Lettie
