Web Africa ADSL general feedback

No.

I opened a ticket yesterday. I got a mail today asking if I consider the issue resolved. No-one contacted me. I'm done.

Hi,

So sorry for this :( I've escalated this issue to a senior and his looking into it. He'll give you a call tomorrow.
 
so i went back to WA just for the download plus data thought i would get some good speed not even 600 kps last night :( Speedtest was 800 kps tested my 1 gig free account every thing full speed :(

Hi,

What's your line speed?
 
One thing I can't understand. There was a double deduction made from my Credit Card. On the 2nd and the 4th.
I canceled my service (lack of service) with them on the 24th and only then saw the double deduction on my account.

I had an account that did not work and was transferred to another account, and there they screwed up. So on the end of the day I paid for two services and received one ****ty connection.

When I queried it I was told that in short I am a retard and I am stupid and do not know how it works.

So watch out for WebAfrica. They can screw around big time and cost you a bunch of money and make you the bad guy.

Oh and if the screw up, they charge you at R9-00 per GB of data.
This was on a home Pro100GB account after the home account gave me loads and loads of shyte.

I am happy now. Moved to VOX 100GB and all the issues (miraculously) disappeared...

Hi Francois,

Our Billing guys have rectified this matter and assured you that your refund will be processed on Thursday. We're sorry this has caused you to be upset :(

We wish you happiness and peace in a new year filled with hope. Happy holidays!
 
Yeah, but some how I had two accounts debited on my credit card. One service that was supposed to have been credited (m0@wa) - the account that was canceled after the service did not work and got less than *** service.
I was given a new account (m2@wa) but was never refunded for m0@wa

I did try to explain this on a mail to your billing department, but I must be a total retard with no ability to communicate to human beings.

So maybe I am stupid but if you cancel an account (m0@wa) and give a client a new account (m2@wa) you can't bill him for both if the one account did not work? Or am I wrong or just plain stupid in this regard?
 
Anyone having issues with WA?

My international ping is normally about 260; did a speedtest just now and it was 1285. Browsing slow as anything. Switch over to Vox and ping is back to normal and speeds 100%

Hi Fulton17,

Are you still experiencing issues?

Hi Francois,

Our guys did drop a ball and we're sorry for that :( However, this matter has been corrected and a refund was processed.
 
Hi WAHelper

All sorted thanks - it just seemed to be that night, and the next morning all good.

Thanks so much

This is awesome to hear :) Please give me a shout if it occurs again. And have a wonderful New Year :D
 
Anyone having issues with Youtube tonight? Seems i can't get any speed higher than 2Mb. Tried on my Telkom account and its flying on there.
 
Youtube streaming on WA is pretty bad at the moment. Phoned a friend with same problem. I get 480p max without buffering. Connecting Afrihost account until it's sorted.

Yup, still pretty bad. 10mbps line, no other traffic showing on router except youtube streaming. Max I can get is 480p without buffering. Using AH account, 720p plays back flawlessy and streams ahead.

Hi,

Please DM me your account details so I can have a look.
 
I've made a ticket about this on Friday, got a response, but nothing changed for the better, it only got a lot worse... >.>
