WebAfrica took R419 for installation that never happened 4 weeks no refund

> **** BEHAVIOUR - PLEASE AVOID

> I paid R419.00 on 03/08/2026 for fibre installation at my home in Durban. NO ONE ever came. No installation, no service, nothing.

> When I asked for my refund, their WhatsApp agents admitted fault and kept saying "refunds are processed every Friday".

> Today is 24/08/2026 - TWO WEEKS LATER - and still no refund. Now they are stalling again asking for "bank statement" that I already sent multiple times.

> Capitec confirmed Web Africa must refund me but they refuse.

> I have all WhatsApp screenshots proving they promised the refund and failed to pay. I have now lodged a complaint with ICASA.

> If you are thinking of joining Web Africa, think twice. Once they have your money, you will chase for weeks.

> Order/Reference: Andiswa Mbatha - Capitec *** - 03/08/2026

> I just want my R419 back!

Hi Andiswa,

We understand how frustrating it is to be left without a clear outcome on a refund, particularly after you’ve already provided the information requested and had to follow up more than once. This is not the standard of service we aim to provide, and you deserve a clear and timely resolution.
We’ve escalated your refund query to our Finance Team for urgent follow-up. They’ll investigate the current status and provide you with email feedback directly so that you have clarity on what happens next. Should you require any additional assistance while this is being addressed, please send us a direct message via Hello Peter and we’ll be happy to assist.

Warm regards,
Webafrica Crew
