Some of us are fed up with the current Rain offering and don't have 5G Coverage. Can Rain please make a resolution to include a upper tier 4G plan. This would be much appreciated

If the 4G isn't holding up now, what makes you think an upper tier plan would work better?
 
I doubt it. Their focus is on 5G. And their 4G offering is so saturated it can't even deliver the promised speeds for the standard packages, let alone a "high tier". For reference, when I was on their 4G i could get above 40mbps (on the "up to 10mbps plan") at 3am when there is little network saturation. In daytime this dropped to a few mbps. There is no speed cap on rain's 4G, it's just "you get what you get", which is usually poor.

Their 5G offering has been decent however, so far (on the Basic plan). Apart from the lack of backup power on 5G which makes having a UPS for my router useless...
 
Yeah 4G is a mess and it's not only Rain. Few years ago I had great Telkom 4G signal stats every time, now the latency can be anything from 40ms to 250ms randomly.

Enjoy while it's still decent. What I used to get last year June vs what I'm getting now.
