Afrihost CAPPED ADSL Feedback (MTN)

Afrihost really gotta sort their **** out... Service lately has been atrocious, thoroughly disappointed and frustrated. Getting terrible pings, sometimes I can't even stream properly on my 10mbps line. Not the service I've come to expect based on previous experience with them.
Giving it a few more weeks before I jump ship to another ISP. It honestly astounds me how quickly the level of service can degrade, and how this has been allowed to happen!!!

I agree that this needs to be sorted. We definitely can't have this kind of problem regularly, we need to get this fixed. I promise that every resource is being thrown at this to get this resolved.
 
really AH, I'm glad I only have to suffer this a few more days

I'm sorry, Gian, but what part of not flagging the setting for you to contact me with promotional items did you not understand? If you're going to offer the functionality, least thing you can do is adhere to it.

Sorry about this, shouldn't be seeing these results. If there are still problems on the account please PM me your info so I can troubleshoot this further.
 
So why is AH dead in the water atm?

Not just AH ... having problems on my other accounts as well.
Looks like the international link is down.

Edit: No scratch that... just my router doing weird stuff.

My Afrihost ADSL died around an hour ago....
