For the second time in two months my fibre line is down and again I sit and wait for days for vumatel to fix it. Everytime I call the call center, I get told a different story. They told me that a technician will be at my house on the Friday evening of logging the call to fix my line. I sat at home the whole night just for no-one to show up. I call them the Saturday morning and they told me someone will come out during the course of Saturday. Call them again at 15:00 and they said someone should be by my house before 16:00. Call them again at 16:15 only for them to tell me that the technician can only come on Sunday. So again I spent the entire day at home waiting for somebody who didn't come. What I don't understand is why Vumatel can't just make an appointment with an exact time and stick to it. I can't sit at home the whole day to wait for them since I have to work. And everytime I call, nobody can give me an exact time. The previous time I logged a call, I sat without internet for 7 days. The technicians either never show up at my house during the times I scheduled or they simply show up at random times when I'm at work. Vumatel also appears to think that I have thousands of rands worth of airtime to waste on them so that I can call them twice a day everyday only for them to tell me nothing. This is the most useless Internet provider I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with. I am at a point where I am simply going to cancel the line and go back to ADSL, because even Telkom is not this bad
Good day Jaques
We trust that you are well.
Following our telephone conversation earlier. Unfortunately due to the rain the technician could not be able to restore your line and will have to come back tomorrow.
We hope you find the above in order.
Kind Regards
