The ISPs matters less than the specific account you buy.

If you buy the cheapest account you will be unhappy regardless of ISP.

I have a capped account with Telkom at the moment with a 100GB capped at the moment with the termination of DSTV I realized that this is not enough for the month and instead of topping up which works out more in terms of rands for data I was looking at uncapped.

Surely a big capped account will work out cheaper. e.g 200 gig fatpipe is R199 and the unused data rolls over to the next month.

If its streaming then my obvious choice would be Crystal Web... IMHO the best uncapped products for streaming and if you can stream in HD, it will stream in HD

Nothing wrong with Telkom Uncapped for streaming but it's pricey and you'll get better value for money by purchasing extra capped accounts. Check out Crystal Webs new home capped accounts - the cheap ones .

Like others have suggested, maybe a large cap capped account would be cheaper. With Crystal Web, their 250gb cap Xtreme account comes with uncapped opentime, so midnight to 6pm is uncapped so your cap is only for between 6pm and midnight.

Uncapped is fine. Just avoid anything with "Home" in the name. Go for "Premium" or "Business" Uncapped and you'll be fine.

I assumed you were talking TI 10MB Uncapped so I doubt FUP would be an issue.

I was under the impression that the TI add on was capped at 10GB per month - Am I wrong?

Not sure what you mean by TI add on?

You should easily do 400GB between 07:00 and midnight before hitting FUP1 on Telkom 10MB Uncapped. 00:00 - 07:00 is unlimited (nightsurfer).

Yeah sounds like you're confused.

Sorry guys I confused it with the TI entertainment bundles offered for R99 per month. My bad.
