Vumatel fiber installation

Vumatel has been installing fiber in my neighborhood for 4 months, advertising installations and wanting to sign people up from the beginning. After numerous mails to them and anything between 36 hours to a week's delay in response inquiring as to when my house can be connected, i still don't have any accurate answers, in Dec 2017 i was told i will be connected in the middle of Dec 2017, nothing happened, contacted them again, i was told middle Jan 2018, nothing happened, i contacted them again, i was told end of Jan 2018, at this point i told them i need to cancel my existing internet provider and that would entail 1 months notice, i was called and mailed by Vumatel with the assurance of end of Jan 2018 will be the date, i then cancelled existing provider, Still nothing, now i am told maybe middle Feb 2018. this is scary, as they are the only fiber installation company in my area of Horison Roodepoort in JHB, if they cant even install the basic infrastructure, how long will it take them to fix a line problem in the future if anything happens??????

What a joke. they contact me for me to send them my contact details privately , so the public don't see what they tell me. NOW.... only end of March , after the mail I receive from them telling me end of Jan 2018. this is a joke. they then tell me to send them the mail they sent me telling me that I will be live and installed in Jan 2018, like they don't have this on their records??????, or maybe they assume I am lying??????? anyway they want the mail to see where they went wrong!!!!! so now they want the public to tell them their inefficiencies and lack of communication???? just look at all the posts on hellopeter about the problems people are experiencing with installations from this company, how in hell did they receive permission to dig up our verge's, driveways and roads, and to put little grey boxes on "MY" boundary wall????? surely there are reputable companies out there we can deal with?
