DO NOT OPT FOR VODACOM FIBRE

I switched my fibre connection from one ISP to Vodacom in hopes that I would have great internet connectivity, it has been a nightmare since - I am currently living in with regret as this connection is constantly dropping. I spend more time dialing into the call center to get my internet connection issues resolved than browsing the actual internet.

I need Vodacom to take full accountability for this issue and my contract to be terminated immediately if this issue persists any longer as this ISP is failing dismally to provide for services I pay for every month. This is highly unacceptable as I now have to incur additional costs to have access to the internet for remote work when I am paying for services this ISP is not providing for.

I don't know if the router is faulty or not, or if the staff don't care enough about their clients. I do not recommend this ISP, stay far away from them.

My fibre connections is down again for 15 hours now.
Currently incurring additional costs using another device.
I will be updating this review everytime my fibre is down to show the public how useless this service really is.

Internet connection has been down since 8PM, November 25th.
No notification received from ISP about any intermittent issues on their side.
Once again, I will reiterate this to any potential customer, do not opt for Vodacom Fibre.

Logged a new SR to get my internet connection issue resolved, SR***, the technicians have been working "urgently" on the issue for the past 9 days now, this is a repeat of SR*** which took 24 days to resolve.

So my predicament now is:
(a) Somehow my contract is supposedly a 24 months contract
(b) ISP cannot provide internet service (this issue has occured 3 months in a row, I still have not seen a technician at my house to try and resolve this as it keeps happening)
(c) I cannot get myself out of this joke of a contract without having to pay for services the organization is dismally failing to provide right now.

I need this connection to be restored immediately.

This company treats customers like they are a joke.
