MTN's network is so useless at the moment! In the Bryanston, Douglasdale, Jukskei park area - the network is almost non existent! I have called MTN to complain, they say that they are aware of the problem but they cant say when they will be able to fix them. surely this is against the consumer protection act (I am paying them for a service that they are not delivering)

They will just argue that it is ALMOST non existent, which means it exists (and that they are delivering the service) but is just not to the user's satisfaction.

Believe me, they are bloody useless. In some areas there is insanely brilliant coverage/speed, in others there is just enough to sustain a stable connection but with such crappy speeds.

I sometimes wonder if the "H" connection symbol on my phone actually means "Hou vas, ons is nou by jou."

Where exactly in P.E do the speedtest guys live?

In Midrand we've been having incredibly bad speeds/pings for 3 weeks now. No word of a solution from mtn yet.

Ping tests from a whole bunch of evenings.
