I think I read somewhere that WA is becoming the Telkom of ISPs. I can confirm that perception: I was put on hold for 30min this morning. I have a life so I put the phone down. Logged a couple of tickets before and again today. you get the feeling nobody is looking at the support requests.

Been with WA for a few years but don't have that warm and fuzzy anymore.

FWIW, I was trying to get through to cancel my fibre order. Another provider is R200 cheaper for the same bandwidth, same fibre backbone.

Am I the only one who's usage monitor hasn't been updated for a while?

Several days later, and the problem is still not resolved. (It's lagging behind by about twelve hours now.)

This particular problem has occurred in the past too.

Very dispiriting WA!

And how long before this will actually be fixed and working as it should? This seems to be taking ages to fix

Why are you not being honest with us??

The DSl console has been repaired

Not only has it not been fixed as you stated but it is allocating data used to the wrong period. Sorry but I don't understand how you can say something has been fixed when it certainly has not. Do you guys not do checks? No quality control??

So there have been complaints about the DSL console not working properly etc and WAHelper has said it is been looked into and being sorted.

Well today I DL over 20 gigs between 00:00 and 04:00 and this is reflected in my NetLimiter. I go and look at my DSL Console (which was last updated at 16:13 and it has allocated all of this to my normal Anytime use and not the free DL plus.

So in fact things have got worse and now it would seem that not only is it recording late but then allocating that date to the time it was recorded and not the time when the usage happened.

I trust that WA will sort this out as this is quite simply wrong

I also download according to schedule and 4Gb went to anytime usage, not that 4Gb bothers me. I agree with you, this is something that needs to be fixed. Don't let us down WA.

Well, the dashboard was fixed for a while (though my data usage in the Anytime category was always off by about 50GB), but... now we're back to a lag of more than a day.

Fix? Pretty please?

@Hein69 and @NameOfBeast - Kindly DM us your customer code so we can get our developers on this - the DSL console should no longer have any lag in the reflection of data usage and live connection sessions

I sent a support ticket on Wednesday and I have yet to receive a reply. Not good enough
