Worst ISP in existence.
Worst ISP in existence.
Complete lack of understanding that their online portals are insufferably frustrating...waiting for extended lengths of time for responses, days of holding on WhatsApp, continuously being transferred to another agent, the whole experience was torture and probably by design to make sure you can't cancel your subscription - which is inevitable as a result of their appalling service.

Hi Errin,
We understand how frustrating it can be to see billing that doesn’t seem to match what you initially signed up for, especially when it relates to a promotional offer.
Upon reviewing your account, we can confirm that your 2-month promotion was applied from 8 May to 8 July, and you did receive the discounted rate during this period. For transparency, here’s how the billing was structured:
Invoice IAB2474042 – May subscription billed at the promotional rate
Invoice IAB2693653 – June subscription billed at the promotional rate
Invoice IAB2929202 – Includes the prorated promotional amount from 1–7 July, and the standard subscription rate applied from 8–31 July after the promotion ended
This is why the July invoice reflects a higher total, as it includes both the tail end of the promotion and the start of billing at the full package price.
Your feedback has been shared with our Service Quality Team to improve how promotional terms and billing transitions are communicated, ensuring clearer expectations for our clients.
Warm regards,
Webafrica Crew

I was a customer of WebAfrica for just about two years.I was very happy with their service then someone try to upgrade my account to a Premium service.After the upgrade everything went wrong no service at all they want me to pay every month for no service. Cancelled the contract but now I try for a refund on the months for no service but they demand I must pay the cancellation fee of R 999.00 before they can refund me for no service. The worst internet supplier of all times . Stay away .

Hi Philippus, we understand how frustrating and unfair this must feel, especially after experiencing service issues following your upgrade and now trying to resolve billing and refund concerns. That’s not the experience we want for you.
We can see that our support team assisted you earlier this month regarding your cancellation, including explaining the termination and clawback fees linked to the agreement. These fees are part of the service terms, which you can review here:

Firstly the billing is way over the amount you agreed on. Secondly their customer service it’s so bad. You trying chatting with them in whatsapp you will wait for over 3 hours. I’m disconnected as Webafrica is claiming I’m owing R1098 which is June and July but June was paid. If you thinking about ewebafrica please don’t you’ll be frustrated

Hi Qaqamba, we can understand how frustrating this must be, especially when there’s confusion around billing and your service has been suspended while you believe payments have already been made. That’s not the experience we want for you.
We’ve arranged for our Collections team, who handle service suspensions, to investigate your account in detail. They will review the June and July billing, verify the payment received, and assist you directly with a clear way forward to get this resolved as quickly as possible.
We also hear your concerns about the long WhatsApp wait times and overall support experience. Your feedback has been shared with the relevant teams, as improving response times and communication is a key focus for us.

I've been with webafrica for over a…
I've been with Webafrica for over a year, and honestly, I've never experienced such consistently frustrating customer service. There have been a few excellent agents, but unfortunately they are the exception. Most interactions are met with poor attitudes, a lack of basic customer service skills, and knowledge. Far too often, I'm left feeling as though I'm asking for a favour rather than receiving support for a service I pay for.
This is not the first time I've experienced this level of poor service. It has become a recurring pattern, and today's experience has been the final straw.
I've been waiting for over 6 hours for feedback. My chat messages have gone unanswered, and when I call, the only thing your staff seem certain about is that they can't assist me. How difficult is it to simply communicate with your customers?
To make matters worse, I can't access the online portal because OTPs are not being delivered, which means I can't reset my password. As a direct result of your lack of support, I lost an entire day's work. Two agents assured me that tickets had been logged and promised callbacks. I received absolutely no response through any of your support channels.
What is even more disappointing is the apparent lack of accountability from management. Despite the impact this has had on me, there is no ownership of the issue and no offer of compensation for the time and productivity I've lost.
This level of service is unacceptable. It's disappointing, unprofessional, and frankly shameful. Webafrica needs to do better, or at the very least, TRY.
The worst ISP with the worst customer support and horrific customer experience. Too bad they don't give awards for sucking, because you guys would steal the show.

Hello Mario, we hear how frustrating and disappointing this has been, especially after multiple interactions, long wait times, and not getting the follow-through you were promised. Losing a full day of productivity and feeling unheard is not the experience we want for you.
We can see your service is currently suspended, and to move this forward, we’ve arranged for our Collections team to review your profile. They will be in touch with you directly to discuss the suspension, outstanding balance, and the way forward as soon as possible.
Regarding the OTP and portal access issue, this is not expected behaviour. Please visit the following link for guidelines on how to update your OTP details: https://bit.ly/45Y6zfi
Your feedback around service, communication, and ownership has been taken seriously and shared with management for review. We’re committed to improving this experience and working towards a better one for you.
