Over the last couple of months the phone support at Afrihost has gone totally downhill. Waiting time is nearly always more than 20 minutes and then you get somebody that shouldn't be doing support. I've noticed a similar tendency at WebAfrica and a steady improvement in Telkom call centre support. I have a bunch of clients with these ISPs with errors than they can't explain.
Is it time make a change and is anybody else any better?
Hi Afrifella,
Please help. I'm done calling the afrihost call centres only to wait forever and get nowhere. I won't bite you with the months of frustration I endured just getting setup, but my latest challenge is upgrading from 20meg to 50 on fibre. I requested 2 weeks ago, my account says I'm on 50 but I run between 15 and 20 still. Please help. Lemme know what info you need.
Thanks,
Barry (Frustrated and ready to cancel)
I have a 20MB line, and am in Cape Town. Something's horribly wrong with general speed this afternoon. Anyone else experiencing this?
