MWEB.co.za Does honour agreements

When I join mweb we had a agreement that I pay them R1000.00 deposits upfront and they will help me and that they will use it on the 6th and 7th month as an payment .

With very disappointment we are in the eight month and they have not honour our agreement we have discussed it with them on the phone and the inform that's what going to happen.

But they failed and did not do that .so they con people in doing that and can fulfil

the agreement with honour.

MWEB.co.za Wifi connection

I moved premises on the 1st of April, and I submitted all the information that your service agent told me to send to them via e-mail on the 5th April in order to get my service activated. Today is the 25th of April my wifi is activated, what is frustrating is the fact that no one is giving me feedback on what the hold up is. Between the time I submitted the information that was required from me and today, there is not even a single day that I do not call to find out. I keep being transferred from one department to another, the latest information that I was told, only because I called was that it has been escalated to your service provider being Vumatel and they are the ones who will contact me. To date my line is still not activated, after 7 calls made to Mweb.

Below are the reference numbers

isp-728984

isp-717406

Desired outcome: My line to be activated

I acquired a remote voip phone from an alternative source. When I tried to set up the instrument to my mweb voip account, I ran into challenges, which I quickly realised are way beyond that of my limited computer skills. Mweb do not operate a walk-in or field based customer support system. This I believe is detrimental to providing a 'world class' customer support service. All the mweb customer IT support is conducted over the phone, which also creates challenges. I now have a voip account which I have not used since being activated 5 months ago. The irony being, that I am regularly invoiced for a service that is not being used. Help help, help whoever cares.

MWEB.co.za Everything

I have moved and I have been emailing MWEB since the beginning of April, its now the 20th - I get told its going to cost R1007 to move as I was needing information about this to do the move from Ottery to table view then I get an email saying that the previous WIFI will be cancelled and the new one will kick in once the move has been done - First of all ...WHAT? No one has been giving me answers , I have told them this is urgent and I need the WIFI moved but I have not agreed to anything as I want to either cancel ( I need to know the cost) or I want to put this in my name.

I called in now to the billing department and a lady said that there is no cost to move and said she was going to speak to someone to confirm this then I was just transferred to a different department.

I work for a company overseas and we have about 15 staff members starting soon and needing WIFI at home and I will NOT recommend mweb, this is the most disgusting service i have ever received in my life!

Can a competent person call me and actually help me - DONT transfer the call but actually sort this rubbish out now!

MWEB.co.za Uncapped 25mbps fibre lite - openserve order received: 5/04/2022

Order No. X7270157

I moved to a new premises where there is already fibre installed, with the box.

On the 1 April I have emailed all the information they needed to put the moving order in place.

I am a bit frustrated as this is not a totally new installation. After few phone calls yesterday they moved to the installation process. How is it possible that it takes 11days just to do that.? Now the estimate date of completion is 25/4. Then activation hasn't even taking place. This makes no sense. In the meantime I have already paid my monhtly subscription on R629, with no internet.

Can I please get some urgent feedback on my activation. If we go on the rate of the system, my fibre will only be on in May. I am very disappointed in this whole situation.

Desired outcome: I would like my wifi to be active by Thursday. Before the Long Weekend please.

I have complained about this before and it is not resolved... I pay for a 25 up and 25 download uncapped uncapped line but I only get between 3-5 up and 1 and 2 download. What was said to me is that I have to switch the 2 boxes of for 30 seconds and switch back on... I do that and it goes back to 23-25 but after a couple of minutes it goes back to 3-5 and 1-2...

Please resolve this

Desired outcome: Make it right

Why is it so difficult to contact you please make it easier. When calling you for a new line it goes through quickly but getting technical support it's a mission. Today 5/04/2022 I have tried to call but you ask to many questions

MWEB.co.za mweb 1644400 100gb + uncapped night time data + 20/10mps fibre - vumatel r649.00 pm

My work depends on being able to download information from the internet. I am paying for a minimum of 10 MB per second. I have tested it at all times of the day and night, and I always receive download speeds of only bytes or kilobytes per second. I have to restart my computer multiple times before I can download emails. and it takes me a long time to access internet banking. Sometimes I cannot access it at all.

Desired outcome: Refund one month’s premium and improve the service so I receive at least 10 MB/s - the minimum of what I am paying for. If necessary, replace my router or Vumatel, without making me pay more.

MWEB.co.za Bad service

I have logged a query with MWEB regarding a problem with my fibre and to date no technician has come out to the site to resolve the issue, it has been 5 days since the issue arose and I had to go into the office since then because I am unable to work from home due to the issue which I find totally unacceptable and I would like to confirm if MWEB is gonna reimburse me for the 5 days so far that I was inconvenienced, still waiting for a response?

The ironic part is that the debit order has already gone off my account and MWEB received the full payment for something which is currently not rendering a service to me but that have made sure they have taken there money from my account

MWEB.co.za Problems with fibre speed

I live in kathu in the northern Cape.

I am using fibre and pay for 50mbs

Iine. My line speed averages 23mbs upload and 13 downloadspeed. It is not just me that has the problem but the whole town. People say the problem is with evotel that installed the fibre. My problem is that I pay mweb every month. Therefor mweb should give me the service I pay for. We hare bind by contract to stay with mweb for a year.

Further more we have 4 outages every week. Can I please get composated for this inconveniece like 50% of my monthly cost.surely mweb must take up the case with evotel. The town is fustrated with the situation because the Isp and evotel just shift the blame. I pay mweb and mweb must keep me the client happy.

Looking forward to you resoving the complaint.

Thanks Johann

Desired outcome: Fixing the problem of line speed.Compansate us for failure to keep your side of the agreement.

MWEB.co.za Mweb Fibre

I recently moved to a new home and needed a fibre service provider, I initially opted to go for Mweb and then later got a better deal from Web Africa. I sent an email to the consultant who initially assisted me to cancel the application on the 7th of March, this is still not cancelled. No installation has been done, no router received, the cancellation turnaround is apparently 48 to 72 hours, UTTER CRAP!

I have since received my router from Web Africa and I am unable to activate my service as Web Africa cannot activate until Mweb cancels with FrogFoot.

Desired outcome: Cancel my [censored]ing application and get on with it, I need my fibre connected as I work from home.

MWEB.co.za Mweb account technical fault shows i have no products

Good day I have called the call centre on 15/03/2022 regarding my fibre account on how to pay and renew the service as I have taken the Vuma Reach 28 Day Base Product as it is month to month service. I am a new customer to mweb so i was not sure how the renewal method works. I explained to the lady from the call that i didn't receive any notification indicating when my service is ending and when payment will be due again. I explained to her when i log into my account its says i have no products and I don't have full access i have restricted access and she than told me that she had spoken to the technical people and that they will update my account and fix the problem so I will not have payment problems like this in the future. She assured me that it would be sorted out today and on the website I will be able to make payment and i will receive my renewal notifications in the future, well she just lied as nothing has be done and its almost COB today. I want this issue to be rectified today if not i will move my business to another service provider i have heard about the bad customer service that mweb provides i did not think for such a petty issue. The service is pathetic and disgusting

MWEB.co.za Service

After a week of no connection and after many attempts to have my fiber connection corrected still today no internet service to my property, after many ticket logs from the technical/connection/sales team from MWeb, No profesional service was delivered by the MWeb team, no follow ups, no new development from the last call I had with MWeb. I need to phone every time to see the status and how to correct the connection issue.

Dear MWeb you have pathetic service and a incompetent team with no client service at all.

MWEB.co.za Activation Of Fibre Line

Hi,

My fibre was connected and router installed on the 05th March 2022. It has been 5 days now since and my line has still not been activated. Getting any feedback from any MWEB AGENT is painstaking.

Not a call back in 5 days to even confirm if the installation was in order.
