    South African satellite Internet and communication company launched

    Similar reason to why I prefer a flushing loo to a pit latrine?

    It's geostationary. Cutting edge stuff.

    You couldn't make this up 😂. I had to check it wasn't 1st April!

    Which computer game have you invested the most time in?

    2000+ on Automobilista 2. Racing online in VR with a motion rig is my main hobby. And retired, so time isn't an issue

    DSTV App (android) - the most broken app ever

    Glad I'm not the only one that struggles with this POS. Usually it's the streaming quality that degrades over time, forcing you to 'restart' the stream over and over. And then today it hangs at the 'who's watching' stage, with no options offered. Hope the developers are forced to use their own...

    Openweb MTN Mobile data - RUN!

    Got another email to say they're still 'responding' to my ticket lodged in Dec/Jan. Good to know they're on it:ROFL:

    Supersonic records the lowest customer satisfaction score among South Africa's large ISPs

    Yip, i was told they were bad, but tried them anyway. And everyone was right. But then I tried OpenWeb, who were REALLY dogshite!:laugh: Wonder where they featured?

    Openweb MTN Mobile data - RUN!

    More like lost in the wilderness. As just a number I'd expect average service. This was shite on all fronts: accounts, support and technical.

    Openweb MTN Mobile data - RUN!

    I'd opened a ton of tickets, because they just didn't respond to most of them. Or they would close a ticket without any change being made. Seems they finally got to them - only a few months late:) So no, nothing useful as I cancelled the service before the end of Jan. I've just deleted the...

    Openweb MTN Mobile data - RUN!

    The gift that keeps giving... All of a sudden I start getting ticket responses regarding all the tickets I raised back in Jan. What a bunch of Muppets.

    A South African Lithium battery company that grew from a tiny garage in 2019 to a 7000sqm factory

    Wasn't practical at the time, and the cells were needed elsewhere.

    A South African Lithium battery company that grew from a tiny garage in 2019 to a 7000sqm factory

    Used them to build up my first 15kWh DIY battery. When I upgraded all the cells all went into smaller units for my neighbours and a power box. Glad they're doing well in a tricky market.

    Openweb MTN Mobile data - RUN!

    Quick update... When I applied for the service back in Jan, I was told I could only do it via debit order, even though they have a CC option in their application. I reluctantly gave them my Investec acc details, but then the process stalled as they apparently couldn't use Investec. So we used...

    South Africa will deploy advanced technologies to crack down on counterfeit and illicit goods in the country

    At this point I'm not even sure whether this dude isn't AI generated. Except that there's no way AI would be this ineffectual, right?

    Openweb MTN Mobile data - RUN!

    I think it's more ISP related, based on a few metrics: 1: Support in general - pretty opaque, can't speak to a agent directly. Confusing parallel ticketing platforms. 2. My package doesn't show any stats, or invoices on the user portal. This can't be ascribed to MTN, surely. 3. They didn't run...
