Our iBurst 24 month contract expires in April, we are paying R238 for:
2+2GBs,the 64k throttle and Uncapped midnight to morning. The 2+2GBs is no longer enough. I'll need about 8-10GBs for daytime usage, BUT....

Now the NEW packages, is what I assume we will be forced to switch to after the contract expires will not include the 64k throttle, nor the Midnight Uncapped. And for R198, you get 10GB's daytime and 10GB's M2M. This covers my daytime usage, but not the Uncapped portion which got me atleast 30GB's in a month.

Is there no way to stay on the old package, but upgrade the 2+2GBs portion to something like 5+5GBs or 10+10GBs, Midmonth topup? (By obviously paying like R200-300 extra)

OldContract FTW!!! :D
 
You can still have the 64K uncaped anytime on the new contracts, and what it afords you is full midnight to morning uncapped
For example if you take the 5 gig pakage at R149 per month and keep your VAS R99, (R248)You paying slightly more then you what you crently paying for 5gigs

Or if you realy want 10 gigs go for the 10gib at R198 and keep the Vas and pay about R297
 
What's this about the VAS costing R99?? Last I knew it was R199 (and is what I'm being charged...)? M2M...
 
Thats interesting, R248 for 5GBs and Uncapped midnight? How do i confirm that this package exists, as divv seems to be paying R199 for the same 64k+M2M uncapped?

My other option would be the R489 1Mbps uncapped (ADSL), then I wouldnt even need to worry about daytime/nightime cap. all the iburst towers, the shaping, and the current spate of network issues.

Hi There

The uncapped VAS is R199 for everyone. It could have been an error by the person who posted.

Great, this means that 1Mbps 5GB+M2M = R348. Or 10GB+M2M for R397. You guys are really forcing us to go for those Uncapped ADSL all inclusive packages.
 
isie, I was expecting feedback from you, clearly you are getting it at half price...;)
