On Facebook, some customers expressed frustration with the fibre provider.
“Vumatel what are you talking about, we still don't have proper internet connection. Why don't you make an effort to call us. Do you even have a landline?” wrote Dennis Fembers Sr.
“Mine is not working,” Sondiya Shengelezi wrote.
