Dear MultiChoice Customer Care Management,
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding my internet service, which has been completely non-functional since Friday, 17 April 2026, up to and including today. Despite repeated efforts to seek assistance through your various support channels, the issue remains unresolved.
Since the service failure, I have:

Contacted the call centre multiple times
Engaged with an online agent via the MultiChoice website
Visited the MultiChoice Service Centre in Brackenfell, where I was issued with a replacement SIM card

Unfortunately, none of these interventions have resolved the problem. I have repeatedly been given the same basic troubleshooting instructions, which I have already followed, with no improvement. Even after receiving a new SIM card, the internet service is still not working.
What is particularly concerning is that I am still expected to pay the full subscription fee at the end of the month for a service that has not been available to me for an extended period. This is both unfair and unacceptable, as I am being charged for a service I have not received. From a customer perspective, this feels like daylight robbery.
This ongoing issue, coupled with the lack of effective assistance, reflects poor customer service and has resulted in a very negative customer experience. I rely on this service, and the prolonged downtime has caused significant inconvenience.
I am therefore formally requesting:

Immediate resolution of the internet connectivity issue, and
Reimbursement or a credit adjustment for the full period during which the service has not been functional.

I trust that this matter will now receive the urgent attention it deserves. I would appreciate written feedback detailing how this issue will be resolved and how the reimbursement will be handled.
Thank you for your attention. I look forward to your prompt response.
Yours sincerely,
Sibabalo Sondlo

Claimed loss: 5 days of no service as I could not work
