    Amazon ends free standard delivery promotion in South Africa

    @Crusader: When I select my Pargo collection point the delivery fee changes from R75 to R35. I guess it was wishful thinking that the free delivery options would last. The irony is that I am now thinking about subscribing to the cheapest Takealot More service as I will more likely use the 3...

    Amazon ends free standard delivery promotion in South Africa

    Does Amazon now charge R35 for deliveries of products costing less than R500 to Pickup Points ? Is the R1 option no longer available ?

    Cool Ideas Fixed 5G/4G Feedback Thread

    @Jason-ZA: If you set the router to disconnect at 100% usage then the light should turn red I would guess. I will try to check when I hit the 75% threshold and also whether it turns red if I don't choose to disconnect after reaching 100%. Let us know if you discover any other alerts.

    Cool Ideas Fixed 5G/4G Feedback Thread

    @Borax945: You can also set a threshold alert to remind you when you have reached say 75% of your bundle if you enter say 200GB for the Data Plan (make sure to select GB not MB) and then enter 75 in the Remind Me When box. I think you will only see the alert when you sign into your router.

    Are you signing up for Amazon Prime?

    I will wait to see whether Amazon improves their range of groceries. Takealot More offers 3 free deliveries per month from PnP for R39pm which is more appealing to me at the moment.

    Amazon Prime and TakealotMore shootout

    Many thanks for posting that Costco video and for your opinions regarding grocery deliveries which are very valid. I purchase fresh fruit and vegetables at 50% off every Tuesday from Yassir Express through the UberEats app - I think the minimum spend for free delivery is R100 and delivery takes...

    Vodacom ISP

    Maybe you should consider signing up with another ISP ? I would suggest Cool Ideas as they offer great support on this forum. They also have very affordable 5G Fixed Wireless packages which can be up and running in a day or two starting at R199pm. Hopefully @PBCool will be able to assist.

    Shoutout to Vodacom for offering South Africa's first subscription-based fibre outage service. 🎉

    @ChantalVR94@: You'll get much better service from Cool Ideas than Vodacom. Ask PBCool to put you in touch with somebody from their Sales Department and see whether it will be feasible to move. Cool Ideas are very active on this platform and you will always get a quick response if you have any...

    Amazon Prime launched for R59 per month in SA

    I am hoping that they improve their range of groceries so that I can start doing weekly deliveries like I currently do with UberEats.

    2TB Anytime data

    Have you tested your speeds when the network is not busy i.e. late at night or early in the morning ? Maybe you could try to change one or more of the 4G bands ? Do you have high speed Vodacom Business 5G coverage as opposed to Mobile 5G coverage ?

    Cool Ideas Fibre ISP – Feedback Thread 6

    What time was this ? My payment went through very quickly early this morning but last month there were problems with the invoice remaining unpaid after making payment.

    2TB Anytime data

    This post also suggests that some restrictions are now being implemented on the Afrihost Vodacom packages. His speeds still look good though ! According to the CI website, speeds may be reduced to 1Mbps after exceeding the FUP ! 😿😿😿 Cool Ideas FUP - 10Mbps = 200GB. 20Mbps = 300GB. 50Mbps =...

    2TB Anytime data

    Really hoping that they don't introduce the speed and bandwidth caps on the early adopters accounts until after the World Cup Soccer. I was hoping to stream most of the games at 1080p but this uses between 1.5 and 3GB per hour and SABC+ will be showing 34 matches. Thankfully the matches are...
