Emails
Good day
I have tried numerous times to contact mweb regarding our emails. Some of our clients have complained that they do not receive our emails and also suppliers that send us emails that just don't come thru. email addresses giving problems are erhyd@mweb.co.za and erhsales@mweb.co.za.
please will someone be able to contact us and advise how we are able to resolve this problem as this is costing us business.
please contact Ismail Omar Sayed on [protected] as he is the account holder.

I told the agent so many times that my Cell number is [protected] yet all my Mweb messages go to my old cell number which is [protected]
As a result I cannot talk to an agent as I have to key in my old number. I am very dissatisfied with your service.

Bad service on new customer
My signal has been downed from 9.30am on the 5th July 2021 . I phoned MWEB technical support and could not resolve my issues and I was told a turn around for queries is 2-6 days. I am working from home and my daughter is writing exams. I requested the technician to speak to a manager and she gave me all the excuses. And after a long time, agreed
Desired outcome: Fixing the problem , failure of which I will cancel deal with them
mweb fibre instal.
Wow, the level of bad service puts mweb in a class of there own!Applied for Fibre 25/25 uncapped, All went smoothly, i even received my router, but that is where it stopped, I was told within 14 days i will be live, 14 days came and went, I probably made around 25 calls to mweb, with no help from them whatsoever!I was told that ifrastructure was not available, which was not true as i contacted openserve and they confirmed it was live in my area, I contacted mweb and they said not to worry they will sort out, I did not hear anything from mweb at all.my calls was either cut or the person i was dealing with was either rude or was not compitent enough to escalate my problem, I asked numerous times to speak to a manager and was put on hold only for the call to be dropped everytime,
I eventually after all this time manage to cancel the contract with not even so much as a sorry, What a terrible experience!
Downgrade upload speed
I am Paying for 200mb up and down and suddenly get 20mb upload that is showing on my online profile as well.
Log a ticket and try to contact helpline which either cuts you off or just get send back to automated answer service.
One month late fibre order ref number 57392663
Order was placed on the 7th of June today is the 2nd of July and we are still waiting. Anthea does not even return our calls. We have cancelled our service provider a month ago hoping to be connected by now and as at today we have spent a lot of money buying data for kids who are doing online lessons because MWEB has delayed connecting us.
Surely if MWEB cannot connect us it better to simply tell us and not waste any of our time. We cannot even work from home because we are not connected.
Desired outcome: Connect us as soon as possible and refund all the money that we have wasted buying data
Fibre Internet
My internet fibre hasn't been working for the past two weeks, and I've called technical support multiple times but couldn't get help.
Desired outcome: Have my internet fibre fixed by, end of this week.
mweb
our mweb via vuma fibre keeps dropping out . this has been going on for month now.
We have three ticked no from vuma yet nobody has contacted us or solved the problem from mweb or vuma.Yet the tickets are closed. ie no 492601.
Mweb and Vuma have our contact detail yet no follow up or repairs effected.
The technical help center keeps telling us vuma will sort the problem yet nothing is done
The only thing working is the debit order ; delivering on the promised service is dismal. time to change.
Desired outcome: fix the technical issue asap
Receiving no feedback and bad service

fibre instalation
After 20 days and 4 attemps to link open serve, no results. People of open serve fighting over who must do the job or complete it without helping me.
Keep on promise to resolve the problem. Mention and register the problem to M Web without resolving the problem.
Installation done and still no internet
hi, since the date of setup we have not used your services . the light on the router still flashes and we have no internet connection at all. i am getting quite annoyed as my next door neighbour had their connection the very same day... my setup was done on saturday and still we don't have any internet...VERY POOR SERVICE . I HAVE ALSO TRIED CALLING NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AND HAVE NOT GOT THROUGH... I HAVE PAID FOR A SERVICE THAT I DONT HAVE... I WILL TAKE THIS UP WITH THE OMBUDSMAN IF MY CONNECTION IS NOT SORTED OUT TODAY!
Desired outcome: immediate assistance as i have paid for services i do not have
Billing Problem
After payment and settlement of my account, i contacted MWEB on the 01/06/2021 and the 2 agents (Val and some guy) informed me that a confirmation of settlement letter will be sent in 24 hours. it has since been almost a week and i have not received anything. i have just gotten off the phone with a decent lady who advised me that she can see the letter shows pensing but she is unable to advise why it shows that. she has now said that i should call back withing another 24 hours and enquire with their billing department why there is a delay/ hol-up with my confirmation letter. i cannot make a application for a house because MWEB has not updated their system
Desired outcome: i require my confirmation/ settlement letter and for MWEB to update their systems on the credit bureau
MWEB is not known for good service, or service at all. Some employees are helpful, but typically not. Try finding their email address- good luck. Poor service reviews, such as what I am adding to, is ignored
Getting connected to Fibre
Acc [protected]
Good day, I am helping my wife in South Africa from New Caledonia, as the connection to our house not done yet. We contacted Evotel to have a contract with Mweb, as we saw they were installing fibre near our house. Mweb said they will connect with Openserve as there is already a connection. Openserve came to our house and said the connection is not finished yet, and Mweb need to finish the hardwire connection first. We have already received the modum, but the fibre is not yet connected to our house, and the latest story is that either Openserve need to connect the fibre to an active link near our premisis, or they will swing it again to Evotel. This has now been dragging for close to 3 weeks with no connection in sight. we had the same issue with Vodacom and Openserve in Nov / Dec 2020, and eventually gave up after 2 months, and they collected their router. We would like to know what the status of our application is, and if there will be an connection eventually. please inform the status to my wife on the details provided on the above account number.
Desired outcome: Connection to Mweb Fibre
Porting of Telkom Line
I have on 4 May 2021 ordered the VoIP once the new Fibre connection was done to my premises. On 11 May 2021 I have requested the porting of my Telkom number due to the fact that at the application of the VoIP there was no block to request the porting so I had to phone your sales division to get that done. This was done on 11 May 2021 and since then I have phone many times to obtain the needed application form for the porting. Yesterday alone I had to phone three times because every time they transfer me I get cut off or the line just die after I listen to the same message three times and none of the options is applicable to what I need done. The last time I spoke to a guy by the name of Graeme. After I indicated that I don't even have the service for a month and already I receive no service I want to cancel the entire deal with Mweb. He promise to find the form that was send to me on 11 May 2021 which I still haven't received and mail it to me. It is now a day later and still no form.
I just want to say if I don't receive the form by 15H00 today, 18 May 2021, I will cancel my entire fibre application and will not pay for the installation and the router. I will also claim damages due to this cancelation as I can't be with out and Internet connection.
Your urgent response will be appreciated.
My account number is 9006520.
Regards
Desired outcome: I need service from your people which I pay for.

Fibre Outage "No Interenet" since 00h00 on 2May21 - Still Unresolved
1. 10h00 - Called MWeb on 2May21 - #6 in queue - spoke to Stephany to resolve - she told me everything was fine as far as she could see but that she would enquire and revert back.
2. 12h20, 2May21 still no response - called Mweb again - #26 in queue - spoke to Stephany again - ref. MWB17752936 - tells me nothing wrong at MWeb I must "Google" the number for Metrofibre and find out myself what is going on there! Unbelievable! I reminded her that my internet is down and she provided me with the number.
3. 12h30, 2May21 - called Metrofibre - Ivana (ref. [protected]) tells me everything on her end is "within specification" and that she has reprovisioned my account. She assures me the fault is not Metrofibre end and the problem is with MWeb side.
4. 13h00, 2May21 - called MWeb again - #16 in queue - ref. MWB17752936 & Metrofibre conact ref. 82334 - spoke to Stephany
- Total reset done one rooter renamed rooter user+pwd after back to original
- tested link direct from fibre box excluding rooter
- used 2x different user+pwd sets to make sure it is fibre/box related not user end
5. 13h25, 2May21 - called Metrofibre again - ref [protected] - Ivana has all stated ref numbers - declares that technicians do not work on Sundays and that I should not expect any action - could have told me this at the beginning! - tells me turnaround time is 3-4 days! - THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE TO BE WITHOUT INTERNET THESE DAYS. - If this is part of the contract, this outage has never happened and I have certainly never consented to such long down times.
6. I am no longer content with such a poor service and I feel that I have been done in with this poor cover. Never heard of such a long outage and I expect to be compensated for the extra costs and loss of service incurred.
Desired outcome: I am no longer content with such a poor service and I feel that I have been done in with this poor cover. Never heard of such a long outage and I expect to be compensated for the extra costs and loss of service incurred.
Fiber services
I have not had my fiber installed in my apartment and have been debited twice for it. VUMA incorrectly logged it as complete and active to mweb and cannot rectify this issue. April and May debit orders have come off and we sit with no wifi or line in my apartment. All that has been done for 3 months is it has been escalated and no one has gotten back to us to rectify the situation. They refuse to assist us at all.
Desired outcome: Cancel and Refund the money debited or install wifi within 24 hours
Fiber activation
My email address is [protected]@mweb.co.za . We received the fiber installation with the Vumatel and Mweb routers in early March. On 1 April things started to get desperate as we are now experiencing intermittent service on the current Telkom line. I managed to speak to a lady on 1 April that informed me that MWEB can't activate my system due to the absence of an OBJECT NUMBER. Since that day I phone or make contact with Vumatel through Whatsapp messages. They persist in informing me that the Object code was sent to Mweb. Whenever I manage to reach MWeb (after waiting and subjected to listen to the most atrocious elevator music for 34 minutes on average), I am informed constantly that they are still waiting for the Object code. Herewith the object code: 48575443617961A4 and VC-[protected]. If I have these numbers surely Mweb will also have it. I can't move this week but will be flying down to the Cape next week to ensure Mweb has it as well.
Desired outcome: I need my fiber installation to be activated
Data router New account
My parents live in western cape, pensioners and every time they had to phone mweb to follow up on delivery of router, router was not working so mweb collected it, and my parents canceled with mweb, now they want my parents to pay (for what?)and threatening to put them on credit bureau. Mweb should be ashamed. My parents experienced bad customer service and spent somuch prepaid airtime on mweb and if they asked mweb to call them back, mweb said they don't call back.
Desired outcome: Mweb to stop threaten & cancel account
MWEB is a third world company with a first worl ego. Service delivery is non-existent. Stupidity with impunity is rampant.
Installation of fibre process
Im Natasha Macanda and I've repeatedly called MWEB in to find out what the status with the whole process of installation of fibre at my place. Initially no one could locate my unit which I found odd as the tenant before me has fibre connection. I spoke to someone named Parker that reassured me that everything will be in order. Parker didn't return my call as promised then another person named Yunus called me and said that he found my unit, that whoever I was speaking to previously was mistaken. He read me the terms and conditions, I was good to go. He told me I will have to wait 5-10 working days for my router and connection. Immediately after I thought everything was sorted out Parker called back saying that Yunus was mistaken and didn't do the right thing. He will fix it and call me back, and again he didn't call back. So, I called back just now and spoke to someone named Sizwe. He told me that he everything has been ordered, i asked to speak to Parker and he went on saying that speaking to him wouldn't make a difference. This person doesn't understand the frustration Im in because I had to even pay R1000 upfront for this fibre connection. I have been waiting for so long and calling MWEB back and forth. Something needs to be done or my money should be reimbursed so I can have a peace of mind because I don't understand what's going on.
Desired outcome: Reimbursement or immediate connection
Mweb is the worst service provider, (if there's any service at all). They rushed to install the fibre to my home only to not activate it, been calling and being taken from pillar to post, I ask to cancel the whole thing and I was told i would have to pay installation, which is obviously useless. How do pay for something when you didn't deliver in 3 to 5 working days, what a nerve.! Absolutely pathetic because now I'm stuck with this useless installation
3-5 working days? These guys work one day every two months, so expect it next year🧐
