I have had the worst experience with webafrica. I had ordered a service from them in December 2025.
Provided all the documents required. Waited 3 weeks only to find out i had to resubmit everything again.
Contacted them numerous times inefficient service. I am waiting for the past 3 months for a refund still nothing. Had spoken to the consultants, have lost count. Beware of this company!!!! Once they take your money its gone.

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
Pissed Off

Although the waiting times can be quite long at times, once you’re connected to an agent, the service is fast, professional, and highly knowledgeable. Jean-Pierre D had me connected within an hour after I moved homes.

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.
Kind regards,TERRIBLE DISCUSTING SERVICE BEEN OFF LINE SINCE LAST WEEK TUESDAY THE 09TH OF APRIL 2026 VUMA CAME AND EXCHANGE THE ONT SAYING ITS AN UPGRADE IN THE AREA EVER SINCE MY INTERNET BEEN OFF WEB AFRICA'S SERVICE HAS GONE DOWN THE GUTTERS NOT TO MENTION WE PAY SO MUCH FOR A SERVICE AND ITS NOT WORKING IM CANCELING AFTER 13 YEARS WITH THEM NO USE BEING A GOOD CUSTOMER TO THEM THEY DO NOT DESERVE TO BE OPERATING THERE FALSE PROMISES DONT DO IT FOR ME

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.

I would like to thank JP Du Toit, he is the only one that has helped me!!! He is truly a life saver!!! Please make sure that you never lose him, because he most likely the most valuable person at Webafrica!

Antwort von Webafrica
To be honest there are some challenges I sometimes meet when I have to get help and there is billing challenges I face sometimes but rather than that there are Agents that can resolve problems quickly. I am happy with vuma

I am paying for 60 download and 30 upload, however I never get more than 52 download and 27 upload, keep complaining however nothing is done to correct it. Constantly buffering

Antwort von Webafrica
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?
I placed a new service with webafrica more than a month ago. They deducted the once off fee. I never got the modem or what ever was needed to activate the service. Nobody contacted me till today to get this sorted. If this is the service for a first time customer then I don't know what the results will be.

Antwort von Webafrica
Received great service today from Jean-Pierre D, Nolitha F and Zimi K. After struggling for 2 weeks to get my internet sorted out and being transferred from one department to another, I eventually gave up and requested cancelation of the service. These 3 people came to the rescue. They were patient, understanding and showed empathy. They were brilliant. Thank you.

Antwort von Webafrica
My router is still not activated since I received it. The turnaround time on WhatsApp or even their app is long and the 2 different platforms the agents will give you 2 separate stories . There is no direct line to have this matter resolved urgently. I’m so disappointed 😢 can I have Chaslin from Provision call me back as there seems to be some progress with him

Antwort von Webafrica
My connection experience has been great from the agent who initiated my connection, the one who gave me updates on my router and the one who helped me connect and change my details. Lovely!

Antwort von Webafrica
Problem after problem after problem after problem after problem. Then finale straw another 5 days before activation.
Please note this was just a switch from active line. terrible beyond terrible.

I was advised by sales agent Busisiwe Mapete on the 02/03/2026 that moving homes will be free of charge . On the 04/04/2026 I was then advised by agent Thokozile Dlanga that I will be charged. I asked for a manager and was advised managers has left for the day, mind you it was still within working hours. Second agent was extremely rude and not helpful at all. I am currently waiting for a manager by the name of Fazlun Wassung to call me today has was advised by agent on Saturday to resolve my issue about being mis sold. I am a very dissatisfied customer.

Antwort von Webafrica
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.
