    Hey guys, Just got a new place and it has a Paradox Evo system installed. I have an Olarm on it but am anti-subscription (especially coming from IDS/HYYP myself where its 'free'). Does Paradox Insight / the IP150 route have a subscription model or is it free like IDS/HYYP? I see there is an...

    The state of CAT6 / CAT6a in SA

    EasyEquities EasyFX vs SWIFT

    Thanks @Speedster, I'll give Shyft a shot. However, their site does allude to 'other fees' even though there is no clarity on them (so either you're mistaken, or their web site is wrong. Either way, their web site could be more transparent on their fee structure as a whole):

    EasyEquities EasyFX vs SWIFT

    Thanks @Speedster - but that doesnt answer my original question. Also, tried to look up fees for Shyft and their is no transparency on their web site about their fees. Only relevant fee I could find was on Standard Bank's pricing guide for 2023 which was 14$ for a 'transfer to international...

    EasyEquities EasyFX vs SWIFT

Let me try again: Say you have R100,000 to invest in US stocks and you want to maximise the USD you receive in your EE USD account. Would you use EasyFX or Nedbank to do your conversion? Below is my understanding of the...

    EasyEquities EasyFX vs SWIFT

    Hey Guys, Just curious if anyone has tried both and which comes out on top in terms of best ZAR to USD ratio? I'm with Nedbank and I'm wondering if I should just use their online 'international payment' option or go with EasyFX Thanks!

    Fibre Estate Monopoly

    Hey everyone, What are my options for breaking an infrastructure monopoly in an estate? SADV rolled out the infrastructure. Vumatel bought them over.
