NON EXISTANT PROMISES

I have been keeping an eye on the fibre situation in our complex for a while now. Previously I have been told that we have Vumatel there already however it is not live yet. I confirmed this on the website. When I did my usual check up, I saw that my complex and unit is now listed, I could even go through and do an order.

Quite excited that I would no longer need to run my business on a shoddy wireless connection, I chose an ISP and ordered a 200MB line, which is nothing to sneeze at for a residential account. After much heartache and headache ( and having to dissapoint one of my neighbours who went with the same ISP as me, with the SAME package ) we have now been told that even if the premises is listed on the website, it may still not be live. COME ON. The complex has been struggling to get fibre for the past 3 YEARS. We are the last complex in the area that still do not have access to fibre, despite the infrastructure seemingly being there already.

You should not be offering clients deals if you cannot deliver on your promises, unless you tell the customer upfront that it might take another couple of years for you guys to start delivering.

Reviewer Update
It has been over a week since the lady from Vumatell phoned me, and advised that she will get back to me shortly after consulting some other department. She is now literally proving my point - promises were made and not kept. Seriously guys. I am in the industry myself. Please, get your stuff in a row, get your tech to my premises, have him do what he needs to do and get me out of your hair. The only thing this has achieved so far is putting my business further back, along with my opinion of Vumatel and my reputation, of which I am certainly not appreciative! If you are unable to follow through on what you advertise, straight forward tell me and I can take it from there.
