Telkom fault logging... Enough said

<p>Telkom,</p> <p> </p> <p>What does it take to get proper service from you guys? Firstly, I logged a fault due to my line being faulty (No analogue and ADSL slow). Seems that some *********** technician worked on my line and decided to give me a whole new number!? And to top it off, my internet is not working at all... Yet you want to charge us an arm and a leg for this pathetic service!</p> <p> </p> <p>Kindly rectify and refund, this is the second time in 1 month that the same fault has been logged.</p> <p> </p> <p>Ref: 315CWK110417 </p> <p> </p> <p>JS</p>

Well done Telkom. I can't track the fault either due to your system being down.

11:19:57 AMSinovuyo: Hello Jonathan,May I have the landline number you wish to be assisted on?

11:20:19 AM You: Issue was logged on the 11th, for some reason my telkom number has changed and the ADSL stopped syncing last night.

11:23:28 AM You: Then my number changed to 021******xx

11:23:36 AM You: And last night my ADSL stopped syncing

11:23:50 AM You: not sure what the technicians are doing

11:25:25 AMSinovuyo: Thank you, i see on my side that the technicians have marked the fault complete and closed the fault, therefore that means i need to log a new fault for you and linke it to the previous fault so that they can speed up the process for you

11:25:55 AM You: Closed the fault? I havent received any feedback on the fault

11:27:03 AMSinovuyo: I humbly apologise for the inconvenience Jonathan

11:27:34 AM You: Please log it and escalate - I do rely on the ADSL for work

11:30:27 AMSinovuyo: Thank you I have logged a fault for you with the same reference number 315CWK110417,and you can always report and check the progress of your fault using our self help options on www.telkom.co.za our self help options ,is there anything else you require assistance with?

11:31:08 AM You: I tried with https://apps.telkom.co.za/track/, the site is down

11:31:13 AM You: would you mind escalating that please

11:32:02 AMSinovuyo: You need to give time please Jonathan, we will only be able to escalate it when it has been taken to the testing centre

How can you not escalate a fault if it was initially logged 8 days ago!!!
