    Screamer Telecoms = daylight robbery

    I need to vent about the absolutely appalling experience I've had with Screamer Telecom recently. Let me preface this by saying that I've had much better service from other FTTH companies without encountering anything close to the madness I've experienced with Screamer. Firstly, let's talk...

    Screamer WiMax and WiFi

    So my struggle to get a broadband connection continues. I live in a complex near Hatfield, PTA with no adsl infrastructure. Pursued various avenues to rectify this but nothing came of my efforts. Then turned my focus to WiMax. Amobia came to do a site survey but where unable to get LOS...

    Screamer - yet another example of terrible service

    Despite the generally bad rep everyone seems to be giving Screamer, I decided to give them a try after both Telkom and Neotel refused to offer me service in my area (Edenvale!?!). After only getting contacted after posting on mybb, I sent in an application. That same day I was called to...

    Need some advice on Screamer Wimax.. Plz!

    I live in a small newly build complex in Pta.(No Telkom lines installed) Would it be possible to install a 1024 Wimax connection and then split it between +/-10 ppl with Wi-Fi? This would be better than to ask Telkom! :D:D:D

    Screamer: The consensus?

    So, has Screamer improved enough to be called a real ISP? Or are they hanging on the edge of a large and tutu-fillled chasm? Have things improved to a point that you feel the service is worthwhile? What (if anything) has been promised but not delivered? Yesterday, howzit (Screamer Rep)...

    Screamer tutu challenge (cda, look here)

    Haven't had a response from cda yet but thought I'd post this here in case he didn't see the other post: We gave Screamer a challenge - that if their network didn't improve as they've promised by the end of the week, the Screamer rep (Howzit) will post a video on YouTube apologizing in a tutu...

    Screamer phoning

    Hi guys, I would just like to know a few things; 1) I currently have a Telkom number. Can I port my number across to Screamer? (Theoretically, it should be no problem - the law allows it now) 2) Can I connect to Saix news server? /annoying thread starter off :o :)
