No Data connection but full signal

It seems that everybody jumps on this thread blaming Cell C, also those who have evident configuration problems and when asking a question which might solve particular problem, they don't reply:

Talking about laptop? Using dial-up modem connection or NSDIS adapter?

I'm using my iPhone 5. Today the connection is worse than it has been for a while. 3G is dead, switching off data then only enabling edge is the only way I can get data today. I'm sure the tower cannot handle the increased connection load with everyone back at the office.

I can't advise on iPhone, it rings a bell of similiar problems on PC where modem device stops responding, so it looks like there is some problem with iPhone as well. Do you have another network connection in the same time (Wifi, Bluetooth)?

WiFi/Bluetooth are both off. There is no problem when i'm at home anytime of the day (Sunninghill) or after 5pm in Joburg CBD. Simmonds.

Some firmware bugs are triggered by network problems, no surprise at all. Nice to hear that in other area it works well.
 
Same here. Some days it's worse than others. Always fixed by enabling Airplane Mode for a few seconds. Less than ideal though...
 
Week 10 & still no resolution.
Cell C are so intent on selling more cheap data yet their network sucks. More & more cheap data is Cell C's ultimate priority & not their pathetic network which is a major problem.

What a disgrace? I'll never recommend Cell C to anyone.
Well done Cell C, its very clear that your only concern is "How to increase your customer base"
 
I was in Autopage today upgrading 3 of our lines. I mentioned to them that I need to sign up for a couple of MTN 2gb monthly sim's as well for staff and the lady said "glad you not going with Cell C - their network is terrible at the moment". So this (bad) news is spreading.....
 
Seems like the CellC rep has this thread and the myAccounts broken one on ignore. Can't blame him really, seems they are too busy getting pre-orders for the S4

Case of "hands are tied" by management it appears....
 
Really bad today.

Full reception, but absolutely zero throughput - no ways that you can run Speedtest.

I have wasted a lot of money on Cell C data that I cannot use !!!

Note : This is in Illovo, Joburg (St Davids Tower ?).

Oh, and I had to post this with a Vodacom sim.
 
We now what 2 months since the OP, still connectivity is irratic at best till around 11am, then unusable for the remainder of the business day, again showing full signal HSPA+. We see reports of further price cuts and big specials coming through (great!) but if they can't get the current subcribers a decent service WTF is the point? I can deal with the odd drop for a discounted service, but at these levels I will rather pay a premium thanks.

Why have MYBB not done any article on the issue?
 
I strongly believe that now is an appropriate time for Mybb to do a follow-up on this story.
I wonder why Mybb are so reluctant in doing this.
I'm really perplexed............Whats the reason....

So please Mybb, would you kindly do a follow-up
and get us some much needed answers.

So I assume you have still not laid an official complaint with ICASA ?
When will you realise your constant bitching and moaning on this forum has brought you zero success with your problem ?
 
Wish you guys would stop your scurrilous arguments.

We are trying to get Cell C to resolve their massive network failure, and then you guys come on here and stuff up the thread !
