    Alternative to Telkom line? Have to wait a month until my installation

    I have recently moved into a new house in Lower Claremont, which does not lie within a fibre district. So I ordered Telkom to reactivate the line from the previous owner. After paying my deposit, they now tell me my installation appointment is on the 14th of Feb (a month from now, to the day)...

    Fibre non-data (i.e. line) prices? (esp Metrofibre)

    Source: The Register Much more at the link above. It seems that the British have the same problem we have. They do have some options though, plus they have access to the wholesale price of their line.

    Telkom account, line rental prices

    Is it just me, or does anyone else find it extremely difficult to find the telkom line rental prices on their website?? I find their site completely useless. Even viewing your online telkom bill opens up more black holes. What I'm trying to do is work out how they come to the single figure...

    Telkom MIX

    As some of you may have found, whenever you need information on a deal, they only advertise half of it and unclear. Now the Telkom Mix deal actually looks pretty good.

    What is the cost of line rental for a 1024mb line?

    Is there still a line speed as 1MB? Can't find it on Telscum's site. Need for a little project that I'm busy with. I see that WA and I think Openweb still have Uncapped accounts listing the 1MB line. Is it just your 4MB line that gets dropped or synched to 1024MB?
