How long does it take for my Telkom Internet service to be disconnected after I cancel?

Telkom requires a 30-day notice period. Your service remains active for 30 days from the date your cancellation request is confirmed. The final bill is typically issued around day 60 after submission.

Will I receive a refund if I cancel mid-billing cycle?

Telkom bills pro-rata, so you pay for the days used in your final billing period. Airtime and data balances are generally forfeited on mobile plans. For billing disputes or to claim a credit, contact Telkom's Billing department at 10210.

Are there cancellation fees if I'm still in my contract?

Yes. If your fibre service includes a subsidised router and installation under a 24-month agreement, you will be charged the pro-rated remaining cost of those items at the time of cancellation. Mobile SIM-only contracts incur a penalty of 75% of remaining monthly fees. Month-to-month plans have no early termination penalty beyond the 30-day notice period.

Can I reactivate my Telkom Internet service after cancelling?

Yes, you can reactivate by signing up for a new service. However, this is treated as a new account and may involve a new installation fee, a new 24-month commitment, and a new router fee. Contact Telkom at 10210 or visit a store to arrange reactivation.

Do I need to return any equipment when I cancel?

If Telkom supplied a router or modem as part of your contract and it has not been fully paid off (i.e., you cancel within the 24-month period), you may be required to return it or pay the outstanding balance. Check your original service agreement for specific equipment return terms.

What should I do if I don't receive a confirmation after submitting my cancellation?

You should receive a ticket reference number immediately after submitting online. If you do not, or if the portal is unavailable, call 10210 (fixed/fibre) or email servcancellation@telkom.co.za with your ID and account details. Keep your reference number and follow up after 5 business days if you hear nothing.
