Was curious to know whether CISP will charge a cancellation fee (hidden somewhere in T&C's) in case I'm unhappy and wish to cancel within let's say 1 month? (or even less?) This would be on a Nitro Cool 200/200 on Frogfoot (Cape Town)

Cancel has to just be 1 month notice, no fees anything. But don’t take my word for it.

So they won't ask me to pay the ONT/router's price. And also will they take back the router?

Yeah the router is never yours, you have to give it back when you cancel.

Thanks for the feedback!

Isn’t it that after 6 months they don’t care about the router ?

CISP's website says "The Free router remains the property of Cool Ideas and will need to be returned to us if the service is cancelled." I just left WebAfrica after 2 years of fibre with them, and they wanted +-R1000 back for the router (currently worth less than R500), or for it to be returned to avoid being billed for it. Seems standard that we're just "borrowing" them.

Telling you, it must be Openserve related as Sinbad is on Vumatel if I'm not mistaken?

 

[Sinbad]

Correct

Well I do know with afrihost they give it for free after a certain amount of time

It has to be 100% your infrastructure, I don’t have any of these issues you guys taken of although my infrastructure was upgraded a while ago after we did have the same issues as everyone else

Attached is my Speedtest now via the phone to Vodafone London

I spoke to OS today and yesterday, they assured me that they tested my link and it's 100% fine. No other complaints from users connected to the exchange I'm connected to.

Looks ok now though
