Rain has five stores in and around Johannesburg, and they keep unusual hours for a mobile network: most open on Sundays and on public holidays. Rain publishes no customer service email address and no separate call centre number on its website, so a store visit is often the practical route.

Services at this location
Rain sells uncapped 5G home wifi, unlimited mobile, its rainone bundled home and mobile product, and the Loop portable wifi product, all on a month to month basis with no contract. Stores handle sales, SIM and device collection and in person support. Because rain is a data led network sold mainly online and through its app, a store visit is most useful for the things that are awkward remotely: collecting or swapping a SIM or router, sorting out a device fault, or getting help with an account you cannot access.
Parent organisation
These stores are operated by rain (Pty) Ltd, which runs its own network rather than reselling another operator capacity. Rain lists 14 stores across four provinces in total, so the five above are a large share of its national footprint and Johannesburg is comparatively well served. As a licensed electronic communications provider, rain falls under the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa, so a complaint about network service, coverage or billing that rain does not resolve can be taken to ICASA. A complaint about a contract, a refund or the goods themselves is a Consumer Protection Act matter for the National Consumer Commission.
