Pity that we still sit with helkom! I had a adsl line with them and it cost me about 1500 per month running my business. Now with neotel and using my cell phone only, dropped it down to just over 500. If MWeb can just offer this on 3G, I’ll also go for it!

AfriHost has capped offerings for R29/GB. So only if you are using more than 9GB a month will this uncapped offering be worthwhile. MWeb is a ripoff with their R69/GB offering.

Pity the uncapping it is on ADSL only and not on their 3G services. ADSL’s Achilles heel is that TELKOM is part of the chain which still renders the service unreliable and subject to poor service levels.

As has been widely point out on twitter this morning, there are numerous catches all over the place in the T&C’s.

Catch a wake up. Read the small print. Don’t belive the hype.

Thanks for the support!

Kevin, there is no catch. Uncapped ADSL from R219.

there must be a catch somewhere.
anything too good to be true, usually turns sour, especially in the broadband sector.

Now if we can only get Telkom to drop it’s ridiculous line rentals.
