Vumatel reportedly stops fibre work in KwaZulu-Natal due to intimidation and threats

Vumatel has reportedly stopped work in KwaZulu-Natal due to intimidation and threats against workers.

A MyBroadband reader who lives in Pinetown, who is waiting for fibre in his area, said he received an email from Vumatel stating that work in the province had been suspended.

You cant even install something for FREE without being harassed....this is why people in this country cannot have nice things.

Yup, received the same email and a Whatsapp message from their representative...

Its disgusting that some small group of thugs (my assumption) is holding the whole process to ransom.

It's tough as well as disgusting. All those tsotsies should be shot out of hand like they do to looters during a disaster.

Tsotsis are angry that they aren't installing more copper to steal

Hey Vuma,

Can you move the teams back to the safety of Gauteng and do my suburb.
KZN can keep Dialup, ADSL and 2G and Gauteng get Fibre.
It's a Win-Win for all.

Let me know.

Thanks,

You mean people in KZN? The rest of us are doing fine, no one harassed Vuma when they were installing in my area.

It looks like you're running nonsense.exe now, Ctrl+Alt+Del because we want fibre.

Atleast we have pretty solid LTE

If anything is happening intra-suburb, then y'all need to sharpen up your CPF groups and security company collaboration KZN...

Is it that construction mafia?

Kwa-Zupta Natal - anything is possible...

 

[ConfusedR]

Maybe because they didn't install Nkandla first..........................

I think this is possibly happening in a larger area than just a small neighborhood.. I have a feeling it's that construction mafia lot.
