    Pathetic upgrades service

    Dear Vodacom, Please be advised, I have handed over my issues with your company to a lawyer who will be in contact with you shortly. I cannot wait another second to get this thing sorted out. I am sick and tired of phoning you, sending hundreds of emails and receiving calls from you (staff...

    High level Cell C contacts?

    In the last few months I have had, (on two separate occasions) fraudulent contracts added to my account. And in both situations I have had to fight Cell C to refund me the money for these accounts I never signed up for. Repeated phone calls were required to get anything done. I'm still waiting...

    Pinnacle Africa, Bloemfontein branch - worst mistake buying from them

    Hey everyone I just wanted to share what happened earlier this year with me and dear old Pinnacle in Bloem. Now, I'm down in the Cape, but my customer in this case is in Colesberg, so it made sense to order from the Bloemfontein branch. With me sitting down here, I asked the branch to...

    Mweb Hosting Services - Terrible

    I just wanted to (warn) share with anyone interested. Our very small company website was hosted with MWeb. An upgraded site based on Wordpress was commissioned. MWeb hosting confirmed with me that the site will work on our hosting package, and our site was duly upgraded. The website...

    My ongoing saga with the LTE Uncapped deal

    So, where to start... Up until September last year, we had been stuck with a crappy ADSL line that barely managed to sync at 1 mbps, and would frequently disconnect and resync at any time of day or night, whether it was good weather or bad. We live in a dip that prevents us from getting LOS...

    Vox Telecom - Bad Service

    Hi Guys, So I've been trying to get connected with Vox Telecom using their "100mbps - 300GB" package and the service I have received is beyond useless. I have phoned them numerous times with them saying each time that they would get back to me. I provided them with all my relevant details...

    Very sad experience with Oceanhost

    Hi all I've been an Oceanhost customer for roughly a year or more. Last year a few friends and I decided to stop using Gameservers.com and host with a VPS. First off let me also add that I have multiple VPSs with DigitalOcean and two JHB VPSs with Oceanhost. I have categorically never had...

    Worst WISP in SA

    If there was a prize for the worst WISP in South Africa the winner by a substantial margin would surely be Wispernet which pretends to operate out of Oudtshoorn in the Cape. I am a client of theirs because I have no option out here in the sticks. It’s mostly-useless Wispernet or complete...

    VPN Lite problems

    Not sure if this is the right forum... We have been using VPN Lite in our small business for over 5 years and it has been great, but in the last 2 months the service has deteriorated badly. We have 15 sites but Telkom do not seem to care. I see that the VPN is down across the board almost...

    Incompetent WebAfrica

    Afrihost - Dedicated Server Hosting and SUPPORT PATHETHIC

    I know there are other threads that berate Afrihost's Hosting performance but I have to start another one to highlight my frustration. I have been decent for almost two months now. Afrihost has the most disastrous India Support team ever on the face on human kind. They actually mutilated my...
