Vodacom Fibre - Appalling Service

Our fibre line has been down since 7/01/2025 to date. I have call the customer care line more than 10 times. Each time the consultant gives you a conflicting version of what could be wrong but nothing gets actioned and rarely put notes on the system for follow up.

The consultants that take calls after hours do absolutely nothing.

Surely after a certain amount of time and if the fault cannot be resolved at their so called back office then a technician should be sent out to assess the fault.

I have even spoken to team leaders who have been of no assistance.

Technology is advanced but it seems that Vodacom is actually going backwards.

Thank you for your response, but this was brought to the attention of your call centre agents on the 7th. Surely it doesn't take more than 4 days to provide a paying customer with feedback let alone provide feedback as to when a technician will be sent out. Your call centre is yet to call me back regarding this.

Have still not been contacted by Vodacom. Clearly customer service is not priority.

A lady by the name of Amanda called my son to do some checks and promised to call back in 30 minutes which didn't happen. She mentioned that it is an open serve issue. My husband has downloaded the open serve app and tested accordingly and there are no faults listed. It refers you back to Vodacom. I called the customer care line and spoke to Sheree and she said that an open serve ticket was opened today and it can take anything between 24 to 48 hours to get feedback. This is me is unacceptable as we have been awaiting feedback since the 7th.

Vodacom is in breach of the contract as we have had downtime since Tuesday and as such should our service not be restored by tomorrow (which is 7 days later) then I want to cancel this contract at no cost to myself.

I would like to place on record that my connectivity issue had been resolved. Special thanks to Amanda who worked tirelessly to resolve the issue with regular updates. Thank you Amanda.
