I was also a happy customer...

Now I am ordering ADSL....!!! as soon as I can get someone to take my UTD and antenna for R2000 all inclusive.
 
Mlangeni stated that WBS is becoming more customer-centric and as part of this drive to improve customer relations they are employing and training more people to assist with customer support.

Stock standard BEE response- I've heard these words from Sentech, Johannesburg City Council, etc..

So they're drafting a new AUP. I am willing to be that, amongst other things, the following will be on that AUP

* absolutely no p2p
* mail can only be sent using smtp.wbs.co.za
* Once you're capped, that's it

I really think you've just hit the nail on the head, HARD. Makes perfect sense, to me anyway.
 
I also want to know if they have a new CEO.. I was wondering about that earlier today.

Well, he better have all his ducks in a row for this wave of customer dissatisfaction!
 
WBS aint an ISP they don't even offer 24 hour Customer Support, Don't they've money to pay about 2 staff members extra its been nearly over 3 months since they've launched and no 24 hour support what bull Dust...

I'd like to know what CAP is limit once Cap is reached what i really want to know last time when it was Launch accounts got suspended, and ppl who did over 5 gig all got there account suspended,

To me is 5 gig the limit, once capped can anyone get me answer on that ???
Please.
