could someone from Afrihost PLEASE remove the rubbish about "Instant Activation" on your homepage? Its not instant, cause now u want a copy of my ID book. Which means, on a Sat afternoon that I'll hear nothing until Monday - and prob Monday afternoon by the time someone wakes up and does their job.
If you say "Instant Activation - Subject to getting your ID book during business hours - and wishing, and praying and the sky turning black" it would save some people like me the annoyance of purchasing on your website and being conned into thinking it will work immediately!
i wish someone would please sticky this question with the relevant answers. in short.
1) You need to be verified first according to rica's stipulations and obviously the attempt to stop fruad.
2) After that your details and account is then given to you and there is not setup period of other things that must happen.
all isps will also firstly attempt to ID and verify your payment before you get an account anywhere.
no one on the world will give you goods before you have made some form of commitment, been ID-ed and given the agreed funds to the supplier.
Oh did i forget to mention. I ALREADY AM A CUSTOMER. and had DSL packages.
Hows that for a nail into useless service...
then what is this for?
topup ?
new account ?
you still have an account with them? >> 'and had DSL packages.'
