MWEB.co.za Zyxel router

The useless Zyxel router they force you to use with their fibre package is the most pathetic router I have ever used. It takes hours to reboot and find the correct configuration which leaves you staring at a "Connected without internet" sign for most of the time. Sometimes the router reboots on its own with no reason or power failure.

Desired outcome: Please replace the Zyxel router that you have provided upon installation with a trusted brand like TPLink or Tenda.

MWEB.co.za Mweb fibre- vumatel connection failures

Mweb fibre (Vumatel) is such a disappointing service provider, you just get connection failures and they provide no communicate to costumers, this time around i have lost connection from friday evening and now it sunday ,i called for technical support i waited over 40mins for my call to be attended by technical support after giving account details i am told your area is experiencing connection problem. So there was no help regarding my connection failure, so my call was a waste of time no feed back as to when the problem might be resolved. But Guarantee my bill will be 100%(not sure it based on what) versus a service which is less than 100% (3rd day no Internet connection) if im not mistaken it not the first time for this month or it was late last month. Disappointed customer ..the reason one went for fibre was for more reliability . Im not sure it the Fibre that not reliable or it the service provider that not reliable .Very Disappointed.

Desired outcome: Communication ,compensate for inconvenience. Which most cases lead to cost implications for us users.

MWEB.co.za My wifi has not been connected

My wifi has not been connected yet from Mweb side. We have the modem and router. We can't get hold of anyone to talk to about our issue. No one cares at Mweb. I will be canceling Mweb today unless Mweb connects us today. I need to work and I need the wifi for my Tefl course and my husband needs it for business. This is getting ridiculous. Is anyone going to help? Will this complaint even matter. I am keeping money out of my account until I have wifi. In other words no wifi NO PAYMENT.

Desired outcome: To connect our wifi from Mweb side.

MWEB.co.za Line installation

Good Afternoon,

I placed my order for my fibre line on the 14th of April it is not the 16th of May and I still have not had my line installed. My reference number is ISP -749827

I have taken off work on two occasions to meet Vuma installers to put the line in place and have been let down on both occasions as technicians failed to arrive. No phone call and no follow up. I

Desired outcome: I would like me line installed and to be compensated for the time I have had to take off.

MWEB.co.za Unable to provide service

Since Thursday 12th May my wifi has been unable to connect. After first trying resetting and following the instruction on the voice prompts, I had to call in. I was informed by one agent that they would need a new IP nr and only Vumatel can issue it, another agent informed me that Vumatel dont work on a weekend and I would need to wait 3 to 4 days.

My son has to submitt his assignments online and I have to work. I'd like to know...

1. Who is reimbursing me for all the data I'm having to buy since Thursday 12th May?

Is my MWEB account bill going to be amended for the days I had an issue and could not be resolved timeously?

If I'm not compensated in some way then I would have no alternative but to cancel as this is not seeing to the needs customer.

Awaiting feedback

Regards

Zaida

[protected]

Desired outcome: I'm hoping this matter can be resolved either by sorting out my wifi asap or and if notThen I would need to be reimbursed with the data or my account bill be discounted for the time period I had no wifi.

MWEB.co.za MWEB fiber line down AGAIN and not delivering the speeds we are paying for

3rd time that my fiber line is down this year already. I have a 200mBps line uncapped and it has NEVER reached the output that I'm paying for and there are regular 'faults' with the line that take days to repair and are always blamed on "openserve".

What is worse is that MWEB tell me that if the fault is on my side then they will charge me, needless to say the amount of time, money and productivity I am loosing by not having an internet connection.

Desired outcome: I would like:1) better customer service from MWEB2) a more reliable product with less 'down-time'3) to get what I'm paying for (line speed as well as reliability)

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
