Zuku has released a statement on the fibre outage that affected some of their customers across the country. In the statement the company says they will endeavour to offer credit for service outages to customers in affected areas.

This will be interesting to see, especially with the heavy backlash we saw online concerning the outage. How will Zuku be able to identify who’s worthy of credit, and who is not. And what will be the means for the refunds?

In the statement, Zuku says, they’ve always offered credit for any outages. We would like to know from any of their customers if this is true. Please let us know when you experienced an outage, and how much Zuku refunded you – whether in data, extra hours of use, or credit.

Update: From the comment section of the tweet, it appears that customers will need to individually DM Zuku with their account details to get the credit refunds. Which begs question on exactly how the company has been offering these refunds.

Here’s the full statement from Zuku:
