Vodacom Poor Service Before You Are Even A Customer

Ordered a new fiber line last night,(SO***) followed up this morning mainly to inform them that their coverage map says I have no fiber in my area but I actually already have a line into my house. Went through the process with a consultant, said everything is fine, if anything else is needed, he will phone me. Heard nothing. Happen to see a mail a while ago, "vetting unsuccessful" A bit of pillar to post but eventually find out, " no documents were submitted" No one asked for documents!!! This is before I even have the service, what happens when something goes wrong? Any advice on a decent ISP? BTW I have a Vodacom cell # for over 15 years!!

Reviewer Update
I received my router last week Friday. Once set up I determined that the line was running at 50 MBPS despite me requesting and paying for a 100MBPS line. I called the help desk, went through a few checks which involved switching the router and Open Serve box on and off and then got cut off.
I phoned back and the agent said I would be contacted within 3 to 4 days. Needless to say I have heard nothing.
This evening the service has been intermittent , all lights on equipment are as they should be but ZERO speed. The service will come back for a while but drop again.

Phoned the call center went through some checks, have to log a ticket on ***. Agent acknowledged that the two earlier agents I contacted did not do their job. I really hope my concerns before I became a customer are not coming true
I am sure you will agree, being a customer for less than a week I am not satisfied with the service
