It looks like we're still shaping heavily, but it looks like it's not as heavy as it's been in previous days. A lot more people are unshaped than yesterday at this time, and we're hoping this trend will continue.
Well I'm still shaped to hell - 2.8 Gb this month on a 1 Mbs line - what more (or in fact less) do I have to do to be at least shaped a bit less?

Everyone is still getting shaped to heck.

I thought it would get better, but now it's just getting frustrating.

We are seeing a slight improvement, in terms of the number of people we're having to shape, but it's a gradual improvement. We hope it will continue to improve though.

Thanks for the continuous feedback, it can't be easy for you guys. :)
 
Can someone please give me the link to the old clientzone? All I am getting is the Beta version?? I want to unbundle my data and line and apply for the business account.

You should be able to remove the /en/ from your clientzone link.

It may be a caching issue on your browser otherwise :(

Eish. So many things are broken :D Including simple links.
 
Afrihost: What would the monthly price be on a 6Mbit biz uncapped account, can you supply a price with and without line porting? Ta!

reason: I only see 4 or 10Mbit
 
You'll be charged a pro-rata fee based on the new account and price difference from the old account. The price for a 2Mbps Business account [bundled with line] is R597/ month.
The line speed will stay the same, it's just a data/ shaping change on our end :)

I want the unbundled offer, my voice and line is with telkom - whats the cost per month then?

6Mbps would go for R797pm - data only. There are drop down lists for some of the higher packages in each tier :)

It's what we're here for. The least we can do is give you feedback and updates where we can.

We know the situation is NOT ideal (<---- please take note Haptic Simian) ;)
 
Can you please give me directions on how to unbundle my current 2mb Home uncapped account to enable me to switch over to the 2mb Business uncapped account?

Thanks

** EDIT ** never mind, I found it. Thanks

From this it seems there must be some criteria for who gets shaped and who doesn't - please tell us what that is.
 
Ok I have moved over to the 2mb Business Uncapped account. I would just like to confirm that I will be paying R597 and not R676??

There may be a pro-rata fee for the Business upgrade on data for this month, but thereafter your should be billed the bundle amount on the first every month.
 
Afriman, where is my reply to my pm's??

Sorry man, I've got about 100 PM's in my Inbox from this morning, and MyBB only allows you to submit a reply very few minutes. It's taking me a while to get through. I promise I will answer every single query before the end of the day - just flooded with requests right now :(

Sweeeet, and would I have to pay this from my credit card or will they debit my account for the pro rata amount?
