It's simple, we took the carrot, we dl at night using the night surfer. Now to make more money out of us, it's simple 5gb @ R5 for 1 night. You do the math......

Lol.. I liked the speed of LTE. I have 10 meg adsl (no fibre in my hood)... so me paying anything else than R50-100 for 400Gig LTE is a no go. Then I will wait a little bit longer for my downloads...

Vox gives me "uncapped" in the same time 12am-6am. No extra money for faster downloads. Sorry Telkom, you could have made money of me.

Same here the 500gb wasn't my primary connection. I have capped LTE which is more than enough for my current needs, but used the 500gb cause it was a good deal to supplement my capped LTE.

Oh well their loss, I can manage without it.
 
How does Helkom get to call 128Kbps Broadband

Look at the Helkom Smart Broadband Wireless Internet deals. They Quote an "Unlimited" package with 25 GB FUP. They have changed the page since Monday but it stated that after 25 GB you would be throttled to 128Kbps, it now doesn't tell you the speed you will be restricted to, just that you will be throttled

They like drug dealers the way they running this stuff lately
 
Coming back to the 450/500GB bundles Hellkom is forgetting the admin part of getting these bundles. With the 500GB it was easy to load the bundle and you only had to go through the procedure once a month.

Now come these new revolutionary No' Nice deals, they selectively offer the good stuff to some people and for those who are not in their VIP list the best you can get is the lil 5GB and on top of that you have to take your sim out of the router -into a phone - and back into the router again just to get:
1) Less data
2) Pay more
3) Data valid for one night only!!!

You mad Hellkom you mad, we have other things to do you know. We don't live to fiddle everyday just to get 1 night data bundles and feed your greed at the same time

Agreed 100%. I don't want "random" surprise package. I want to know what I get , pay for it, and f-off.

These clowns are like vodacom. Daily visit to their site (mobile app) to get random prizes. UGHH.. Just let me buy my crap and move on. I don't want to check daily.

And 99% of these daily "deals" are useless. Pay R2 for 10min browsing crap etc.
 
Looks like we back to adsl after hours data to get through the downloads.
 
No ways guys , we have the 5gb for R5 deal valid for 1 day throttled at 128kbs.
 
Damn.. Now I have to go back to torrenting using my 2meg line. :(
