    Rain 5G Standard + VPN: Download Speed Drops by 90%

    They won't even respond to support requests in this regard. Both my messages have been ignored. Guess we are not the kind of customer they are looking to acquire. At least they were quick in responding to my cancellation request. Now waiting for the refund.

    Cool Ideas Fibre ISP – Feedback Thread 2

    Dead connection here too (Octotel, CapeTown Gardens). Ddos attacks can happen. So far I didn't complain nor cancel. But it's enough now. What annoys me most is the lack of communication and transparency. Comments on Facebook are deleted or hidden, no official announcement other than on this...
