Poor signal and response

SR ***. Logged a call due to slow data and bad cell reception on my LTE router and cell. Technician came and visited my house. I showed him the problems and signal issue. His response to my lte was "gthat more than enough to get things done". LtE running at 20mbps and sometimes dropping to 2mbps.

Then he suggested 5G. I purchased a new 5G router from Vodacom in cash and guess what... Poor speeds with bad reception.

This has been an issue for a month and Vodacom tries to make me loom like an idiot by complaining.

I have a bad recetion issue. Period. Get this looked at or my contracts endibg next yeaf June will be moved to a new provider.

Zero reply of any sorts. Submitted proof that my signal is beyond poor from a brand new router. Should approach a lawyer next cause this cannot be inline with consumer protection?

03 Dec 2025 at 09:23So I got a call yesterday stating that the radio planner went out and "optimized". Nothing has changed, signal is poor on both my cell phone and 5G router. The same it was...

I have thus cancelled 2 migration requests (Order *** and Order ***) I logged for my personal cell numbers. Reason.... Vodacom cannot service its current clients with the infrastructure in hence I will not be spending more as my product will not be serviced.

My personal cell number and Internet contract and is coming to an end next year and I will be seeking another service provider.

*** Vodacom closed the call but now I almost have no signal. My router has been witout signal 4 times yesterday. The radio planner did not optimise, its worse
