The speed on the 24 hour package is limited to 10mbps. what you are getting is pretty decent

Mine is literally the same speed during the day. I cannot wait for the lockdown to be over so that the towers aren't so congested

I ordered RAIN and got it this morning, and at the back of the RAM van there were 20+ undelivered sim cards in just my small town!

Reactions: Yuu
Every since I received my Sim, the connection is horribly slow but i have 4 bar network coverage which tells me that something small is missing for my network connection to improve.

Been trying to get someone, anyone, from rain to help for several months now - this is typical:

Full 5 bars on my router ALL THE TIME. I'm disgusted both with the service and with the customer !care.
No possibility of a hardline of any description at the moment so this is the cheapest way to get the data bandwidth I need but trying to use rain seems to be an exercise in futility.

Last email in chain of emails with customer !care was a week ago - replies? Not so much.

Hey @rain_mobile can you give someone a bit of kick?

So i contacted Rain suport on Tweeter and got prompt response.

After i engaged with them, rechecking my APN settings and moving my portable WIFI router around the house.

These are my current speeds as of this morning, which is very decent.

I have ordered a new TP LINK router as i am overdue to get 1 and it should give me way better speeds and WIFI coverage around the house.
