Vox, Rain blamegame

The last 2 months ive been getting slow speeds on my rain network of 3 to 5 mbps in the evenings. When i got the product last year October/November is was getting speeds of 20 - 30 mbps. The product is useless in the afternoons when we actually want to use it. We cant stream, use facebook, check mails, The only thing we can use it on in night times is whatsapp, so im paying you guys R750 a month to whatsapp every night. Rain mobile is refusing to help me and says its VOX problem, and VOX says its Rain's problem. This morning i called VOX and have been notified for the first time that im being throttled (16/07/2018). IM NOT EVEN ON A UNCAPPED PACKAGE. IM ON THE 110GB per month package. I will go ahead with a complaint at the consumer commission as advised by ICASA. This is not what we signed up for last year.
