My Rain 5G signal went completely down this afternoon and it does not help to log a ticket as they do not get back to me.
My Rain 4G went down to 0.34mbps, so I cannot work at all.

Hi louisjj,

When checking your latest connection we see that you were successfully latched to a 5G tower this morning. Please drop us a DM if the problem persists

I think its safe to say once the lockdown started, everyone jumped onto an internet connection that allowed them to stream without concern of data limits. Rain 5G and 4G are an appealing and will cater for streaming - easily.

To sum it all up - Rain 4G and 5G is over-subscribed.

They just rebooted the whole network tonight 19h00. As soon as the connection was live, my Speedtest to Midrand was 300MB/s. 45mins later, same Speedtest is now at 9MB/s - same tower ID.

I tested the other night at 3am - Speed was 440MB/s.

Just over-subscribed.

Now try telling rain to stop accepting new clients / new money. Not going to happen.
