Things you need to know:
Once you have submitted your service cancellation request, you will receive a reference number. It's important to keep this reference number handy in case you ever you need Telkom to escalate your request.

Telkom services that are still in their contract phase may incur penalties.
Telkom fibre contracts have a minimum commitment term of 24 months. You will be billed pro-rata for the fibre installation and router. The fibre installation and router cost are amortized into your contract, which means you will be billed for the remaining amount owing on both.
If you wish to have any credit balance refunded to you upon receiving your final bill, please call Telkom's Billing department on 10210 to log a dispute.
