Afriman please respond to this:

Last year this time I got the 10Mbps 50GB Bundle for R450pm. Since then the price has increased to R497pm. Now on the Telkom side the 10Mbps line speed costs didn't change so why the price increase in data???

From ITWEB on the 27th of January 2014:
http://www.itweb.co.za/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=70382
SA's telecoms backbone with a monopoly in the fixed-line arena – announced it would cut IP connect (IPC) costs for the third time, in two years, next month.
IPC is the wholesale product through which third-party Internet service providers (ISPs) connect to Telkom's network. The latest price reduction of an effective 15% (set to come in from 1 February) follows a 30% cutback in April 2012 and another 8% reduction about a year-and-a-half later

When are we going to see price reductions again and even if you bring this specific bundle down by R47pm then it will only be where it was a year ago before 2 IPC price cuts? Other ISP's have already began to cut their pricing.

It was also discussed here:

They are a Service Provider and should grow with their client base. Again I'm talking capped pricing here, uncapped is managed/priced completely different!

Wait for a bit, they are going to introduce their new prices soon. Remember - they have already passed all the line savings to their customers - and will be passing on some data savings soon :)

Afriman did promise mid Feb for new pricing :D
 
Hi Guys!

The pricing was calculated differently when we did the original pricing for the Capped Bundles. Back then the 4mbps and the 10Mbps were the same price.
If you have the lower rate, you ca stay on it but if you change packages, you will get the new rate.

Hate to say this but we will be looking at the prices soon
