8ta: Internet contract pricing revealed

8ta launched three new contract Internet packages which they say “will provide a superior experience in terms of pricing and quality”

Well, it is better pricing than mtn, but still way of the mark set by Cell C

 

[roberth]

ROFL at those prices

 

[Tick]

Super-expensive. Stick with Cell C. Seems their strategy is "rely on customer ignorance".

"Continue surfing for free at a slower speed. This will be limited to 10% of the subscriber’s chosen data bundle."
Doesn't make sense. Do you surf at slower speed and then get cut off completely after using a further 10% of your bundle?

640 mb for R240? Isn't that like 40mb more then Vodacom. Damn! Well Done! You outdid yourself there. Leading edge technology? Whatever give us lower prices!!!!!!!!!

Rofl at the internet 1 package. R250/650MB = 38.46c/MB but you can surf at an out of bundle rate of 30c/MB. Rest looks ok, still not CellC rates

Vodacom/MTN what is your next move?

 

[Na-iem]

CellC

Internet 3 – 3.2G for R500 p/m!! WTF. 8ta shows its Telkom roots.

Unbelievable really. It sort of highlights the fact that 8ta commercial actually don't have a clue. Their voice packages showed some innovation but with this pricing they obviously DON'T want your Data traffic.

1. Internet 1 – 650MB for R250 p/m or R385/Gb
2. Internet 2 – 1.5G for R280 p/m or R187/Gb
3. Internet 3 – 3.2G for R500 p/m or R156/Gb

Telkom at least understand the concept if you buy more you pay less... For years Vodacom's been struggling with that concept.

 

[Park@82]

Lower data price on prepaid please.

 

[Mercurious]

Why are these guys pretending like Cell C does not exist. You CANNOT call your pricing competitive if it's more than 3 times more expensive that the cheapest option. What is it that they offer that Cell C doesn't?

Getting punched in the face and having your wallet stolen every time you use your phone would be better than MTN pricing.

 

[VioAdmin]

This has to be a joke, I am refusing to believe they would actually post these prices here.

3.2G for R500/month???

...I mean, lol I am TYPELESS.

 

[jboyx989]

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

 

[inferno]

So if you continue browsing at 10% the speed of your package once capped, you are effectively on a shaped uncapped account? Or do they mean you get 10% of your bandwidth?

Come on 8ta this is your chance to blow away the competition and impress us all. Lets see even better pricing !!
