Hi, in the end. It took 6 calendar days for VOX to get a technician to come out, more than 144 hours, absolutely terrible service.

When you tell them you want a prorate rebate for the 6 days down time (I spend about R500 on mobile data) they try every trick in the book and when they eventually loose the argument they fall back to the the following statement "We are a best effort service" Basically they are saying, even if they provide you with no service for as long as they like, you still have to pay.

This will not stand in court.

Do not let this company bully you.

Additionally, I am now only receiving 25/25 Mbps on my 50/50 Mbps line. The connection is very unstable, frequently disconnecting me from Teams meetings.

I'm unsure if they might be throttling my speed
