Provided all the documents required. Waited 3 weeks only to find out i had to resubmit everything again.

Hi Farzana.
We hear how frustrating and exhausting this experience has been for you, especially after submitting all required documents in December, only to be asked to resubmit and then facing repeated delays around your refund for the past three months. That kind of back-and-forth, with no clear resolution, is not the experience you should be having.
From what you’ve described, there are two key issues here: the onboarding process being reset due to document verification gaps, and the refund process not being actioned within expected timelines. Both should have been communicated far more clearly and progressed without repeated follow-ups from your side.
To move this forward properly, your refund case needs to be prioritised with Finance and formally tracked against your original cancellation request. This ensures we can confirm the exact status, identify where the delay occurred, and provide you with a definitive outcome instead of further escalation loops.
We want to take ownership of resolving this for you rather than adding more frustration.
Kindly email customer-reviews@webafrica.com
including the review info, a link or image, and your registered Webafrica email address. Once we’ve received all the required details, we’ll verify your information and assist further. Our team aims to respond as soon as possible, with a general turnaround time of up to 24 hours.

WebAfrica: A Masterclass in Organised Chaos
Buckle up buttercups - its going to be a bumpy ride
Let me tell you a little story. A story about hope, betrayal, and a WhatsApp chat that will haunt my dreams.
It started simply enough. I moved house. WebAfrica, bless them, advertises a service where they move your connection with you. Lovely. Except when I asked them to do exactly that, I was told — with what I can only imagine was a straight face — that this isn't actually possible. I would need to cancel and place a brand new order, complete with a new connection fee and startup costs, on top of my monthly. So the "move your connection" service is more of a vibe than a commitment. Duely noted.
Fine. I placed the new order. It took three weeks — February 7th to around the 24th — to get my new place connected. Three weeks. I've seen glaciers move with more urgency. In the meantime, I cancelled the old address connection so I wouldn't be billed for two lines. You can probably see where this is going.
Debit order day arrives and I am charged more than double my monthly amount. Two connections. Both on my name. One of which I had cancelled, was not using, and was not living at. WebAfrica, unbothered, simply debited me for both. When I queried this and asked them to cancel the redundant one, I received confirmation that it had been sorted. Everything was fine! I was naive enough to believe them.
March 31st. Debit order goes off as normal. WebAfrica, for the uninitiated, takes your money at the start of the month and then provides the service — so I paid, the money left my account, we were square. April 9th rolls around and my internet is cancelled. No warning. No explanation. No email. Nothing. Just: gone. I work from home. So this wasn't an inconvenience — this was my income, evaporating.
I reached out to find out what on earth had happened. What followed was one of the most extraordinary customer service experiences of my life, and I say that as someone who once spent 45 minutes on hold with a government department. Their WhatsApp chat — the only meaningful way to reach them — operates on a system where you wait hours for an agent, receive one sentence of information, get transferred to another department, wait hours again, receive another sentence, and then — inevitably — the chat times out because the agent has gone walkabout, and you start from the absolute beginning with a new agent who cannot see your previous conversation because the last agent never gave you a ticket number. Rinse. Repeat. Weep.
I was told, repeatedly, that my matter had been escalated. To this manager. To that brand owner. Very important people, allegedly. When I asked to actually speak to one of these mysterious escalation recipients — you know, someone who might have an answer — I was told no. I could only speak to the agents. The same agents who were escalating things to people I was not permitted to contact. It's a closed loop of incompetence and I genuinely think it might be load-shedding for accountability.
April 13th. Still no internet. Still no explanation. But new information arises: I now need to pay an additional R575 for them to reconnect me. For a service I had already paid for. That they had cancelled. For reasons no one could explain.
Today is April 15th. After not once hearing back from Webafrica or from any of the numerous escalations. I have cancelled everything at the suggestion of friends and family — every connection, every order, every fragile thread of hope I had in this company — and signed up with a new, more reputable and better rated ISP. And WebAfrica, true to form, has one final trick up their sleeve: they are holding my line through Frogfoot. Apparently this is something they can do — legally, apparently — for up to a month. My new ISP has estimated I'll be back online by May 3rd.
May. Third.
I've been without internet since April 9th. I work from home. That's not an inconvenience, that's a hostage situation — and WebAfrica will do (and have done) nothing about it.
If you are considering WebAfrica as your ISP: please. I'm begging you. Go literally anywhere else. Sign up with someone, anyone, who treats service cancellations as something to be explained, who has a support system that doesn't functionally reset every hour, and who does not — when all else fails — hold your line hostage out of what I can only describe as spite.
Screenshots available upon request. I have many.
Yours Kindly

Hi Christian.
Thank you for sharing your experience in detail. We truly understand the frustration this situation has caused, especially given the impact on your ability to work and the breakdown in communication you’ve described.
For clarity, a cancellation confirmation SMS was sent on 13 April, confirming the instruction was received and processed on our side. At present, the Frogfoot line status is showing as Inactive.
We also want to confirm that we have already escalated your case to the team who manage all line release requests directly with the network provider. They are currently reviewing your request and will provide an update as soon as the release status has been confirmed and actioned.
We understand how important it is to have certainty and timelines in a situation like this, and we are actively pushing for an expedited resolution with the relevant parties.

TERRIBLE DISCUSTING SERVICE BEEN OFF…
Dear Webafrica Support Team,
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding my internet service, which has now been down for 7 consecutive days.
Despite contacting your support team daily, I have not received any meaningful assistance or resolution. Each interaction results in being told that the matter will be “escalated,” yet no progress has been made, and no clear feedback or timelines have been provided.
This level of service is unacceptable. As a paying customer, I rely on a stable internet connection, and this prolonged outage has caused significant inconvenience and disruption.
I request the following as a matter of urgency:
Immediate resolution of the service outage
A clear explanation of the cause of the issue
A firm timeline for restoration (if not yet resolved)
Consideration of compensation or account credit for the period without service
If this matter is not resolved within 24–48 hours, I will have no choice but to escalate my complaint to the relevant regulatory authorities, including the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA) and the Internet Service Providers’ Association (ISPA).
Please treat this matter with the urgency it deserves.

Hello Rosemary.
We hear how upsetting this has been, especially being offline since 9 April after the ONT swap and then not getting the service back up. After 13 years with us, you should feel supported, not left without answers, so we completely understand why this has pushed you to consider cancelling.
We’ve escalated your case to our Retentions team, who will review your account, the ONT upgrade impact, and the outage end-to-end, then contact you directly to guide the next steps and get this resolved as quickly as possible.
While this is being prioritised, a few quick checks can help:
Power cycle the ONT and router (off for 30 seconds, then back on)
Confirm all fibre cables are securely connected and not loose
Check if the ONT lights (PON/LOS) are stable; flashing red usually indicates a line issue
Try connecting via Ethernet to rule out WiFi
Your experience, especially around communication and downtime after the upgrade, is being taken seriously and shared with the relevant teams. We want to get you back online and restore your confidence in the service.
Warm regards,
Webafrica Crew
PATHETIC SERVICE DELIVERY
PATHETIC SERVICE DELIVERY
It has now been 12 days since I requested Webafrica to move an existing fibre line to a new address, and the level of service I have experienced is beyond unacceptable.
I contacted Webafrica on 30th March to relocate an EXISTING fibre connection, yet at no point was I informed that the package I initially selected was NOT AVAILABLE IN MY AREA. This is basic information that should have been communicated upfront, not discovered after the fact — if at all.
To make matters worse, I was DEBITED R479 on 31 March for a service that, to this day, has not been delivered. The only communication I’ve received is a generic “order received” confirmation — no updates, no timelines, no accountability.
Let’s be clear:
* I already have a router
* I have been a Webafrica customer for over a year
* No installation or delivery is required
* This was a simple request to **port an existing line**
Yet somehow, 12 days later, nothing has been done.
We are now well into the month, 13 DAYS INFACT, and I have effectively paid for a service I cannot use. I’ve had to spend additional money out of pocket just to stay connected — all because of Webafrica’s complete FAILURE to act.
The service delivery is so poor that, quite honestly, one would get better efficiency at Home Affairs — and that says everything. At this point, it genuinely feels like I would have a better chance of getting my internet connected if I applied for a job at Webafrica and did it myself.
Billing customers without delivering a service, coupled with zero communication and excessive delays, is ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC. There is no excuse for this level of inefficiency.
I am extremely dissatisfied and would rate this experience a -5 if it were possible. To anyone considering Webafrica: do your research. They will take your money promptly, but delivering the service appears to be optional.
This situation needs to be resolved immediately, along with appropriate compensation for the time and money lost due to your failure to provide service.

9 avril 2026
Avis spontané
Réponse : Webafrica
Hello Mark .
Thanks for sharing this with us. We can understand how frustrating buffering can be, especially when your speeds aren’t quite where you expect them to be. Let’s help you get the best possible performance from your line.
It’s worth noting that speeds are typically delivered on a “best effort” basis, and a slight variance from your package (like 60/30 vs 52/27) can happen due to factors like network overhead, peak-time traffic, or how your devices are connected. That said, buffering shouldn’t be a constant experience, so here are a few practical tips to help improve performance:
1. Use a wired connection where possible
Connecting directly to your router with a LAN cable gives the most stable and accurate speeds, as WiFi can be affected by distance, walls, and interference.
2. Check your router placement
Keep your router in an open, central area of your home. Avoid placing it near thick walls, metal objects, or electronics that can interfere with the signal. This helps your WiFi distribute more evenly.
3. Restart your devices regularly
A quick restart of your router and fibre box can refresh your connection session and clear any minor glitches that may be affecting speed.
4. Limit the number of connected devices
Multiple devices streaming or downloading at the same time can split your bandwidth, which may lead to buffering.
5. Run a speed test correctly
Test using a wired connection, with no other devices using the network, to get a true reflection of your line speed.
If you’re still experiencing issues after trying the above, we’d love to take a closer look for you. You can easily connect with one of our tech support agents via the Webafrica App, and we’ll run checks on your line and help optimise your setup further.
We’re always here and eager to assist you in getting the smooth, reliable experience you signed up for.
Warm regards,
The Webafrica Crew
Awful support
The service I have received from webAfrica has been absolutely terrible.
First, when I asked to move my existing connection to a new address, two products were activated on my account instead — meaning I have been paying double every month for something I never requested.
Then, once that issue was sorted out, which took days, and without any notification of why or when, my service has been cancelled outright, mid-month, for a month I have already paid for.
Now I have to sit and wait on your awful chat service to try and get this rectified — which every single time takes days to resolve and requires being transferred multiple times before the right person is available to help. And that’s if the chat doesn’t time out while I’m on hold, forcing me to start the whole process over again from scratch.
How is any of this acceptable?

Breach of Service Level & Unprofessional Conduct
I've been contacting your customer service for 2 days now, and last week I upgraded my package to a 40mps package, yet I'm still receiving low internet speeds , maximum is 5mps(I have screenshots)
Today a agent on WhatsApp called Mbali supposed to assist me. The wifi then was fixed for a minute and went back to 5mps, I then asked for a refund because I'm not getting what I paid for and she screamed at me in full Capital letters and exclamation marks (!) in a condescending manner, I have screenshots
This violates the ISPA Code of Conduct. It Explicitly mention that if I were "shouted at in caps" by support. This violates the ISPA Code of Conduct, which Webafrica is bound by.
I'm requesting a pro-rata credit for the months I didn't receive full speed and a waiver of any cancellation fees due to their failure to provide the service
If not I'm gonna have to take this further and lodge a mediation request with the ISPA to report this incident.

Hey Storm.
This is a deeply frustrating experience to go through, especially after upgrading your package and still receiving speeds as low as 5Mbps. On top of that, the interaction you’ve described with support is not acceptable, and we take this very seriously, particularly where professionalism and conduct are concerned.
Let’s break this into the two key areas so we can move it forward properly:
1. Speed not matching your 40Mbps upgrade
Consistently receiving 5Mbps after an upgrade points to a clear performance issue that needs proper investigation, whether it’s line configuration, network profile, or router-related. The brief improvement you experienced suggests the line can perform correctly, but something is not holding stable.
2. Support interaction and ISPA concern
Your experience with the agent, especially if communication came across as aggressive or unprofessional, is not aligned with the standards we hold ourselves to, or those expected under the ISPA Code of Conduct. The fact that you have screenshots is important, and this will be formally reviewed.
We’re taking full ownership of this and will ensure the following happens:
Your line and speed profile are reviewed end to end by the relevant technical team
The support interaction is escalated for internal review based on your evidence
Your request for a pro-rata credit and cancellation consideration is assessed fairly once the service review is complete
To help strengthen your case and speed things up, please include the following when we connect:
Your speed test screenshots (ideally both WiFi and wired, if possible)
The timestamps of when the issue occurs
The chat screenshots with the agent
A quick tip while this is being reviewed: if possible, run a wired speed test directly from the router. This helps isolate whether the issue is WiFi-related or line-related, which can significantly speed up resolution.
We want to resolve this properly and transparently, without you needing to escalate externally.
We’d really appreciate the chance to assist further. Email customer-reviews@webafrica.com
with the review details, the link or screenshot, and your registered email address so we can securely confirm your information. We do our best to respond promptly, with a general response time of up to 24 hours after receiving all required details.

Tout le monde peut écrire un avis Trustpilot. Les auteurs d'avis peuvent les modifier ou les supprimer à tout moment et les avis sont affichés tant que les comptes utilisateurs respectifs sont actifs.
Les entreprises peuvent utiliser nos invitations automatiques pour collecter des avis. Ils sont accompagnés du statut « Vérifié » pour indiquer qu'il s'agit d'expériences authentiques.

Nous avons des personnes dédiées et des technologies intelligentes pour nous aider à protéger notre plateforme. Découvrez comment nous combattons les faux avis.

La vérification permet de s'assurer que des personnes réelles écrivent les avis que vous lisez sur Trustpilot.
Offrir des incitatifs en échange d'avis ou demander des avis de manière sélective peut fausser le TrustScore, ce qui va à l'encontre de nos conditions d'utilisation.
