Has anyone else noticed that on the capped accounts, it says "Free Standard News Server" but on Premium Uncapped, it says "Free Premium News Server"?

Pretty sure that it used to be "Free Premium for everyone".
 
Do we have access to the portal yet? Still haven't received any email regarding this.
 
Can somebody please explain the difference between a standard and a premium news server to me?

Also, can I buy just one month of mobile data? (Going on Holiday in Feb and some data to use while away could be nice...)

Also, will my DSL subscription also be discounted in Feb or do I keep paying full price?

premium you normally pay for - longer retention periods, sometimes better speed.

I am happy with just having access to a news server. That is why I left MWeb and felt very sad during the last week - has the CS news server been fixed or is it still borked? Peculiar that this coincided with the start of a new month...
 
You guys will have to settle for second best.

See earlier posts...
 
The new website is a big improvement. Not crazy about the Vodacom pricing though. I hope the MTN options are better when they arrive.

MTN through Afrihost vs. Vodacom through CW:

500MB AH: R29
500MB CW: R69

1GB AH: R58
1GB CW: R99

2GB AH: R99
2GB CW: R199

3GB AH: R145
3GB CW: R299

I'm sure that was always one of the differences.
 
Oh okay.

But it would make sense to split it off for new customers then to diversify the products.
 
We expect the final configurations to take place by CoB Monday 6 February.

481 No Configuation-Token received

Anyone else able to use the server? I see the DNS is pointing back to the old IP so they are making progress.
 
I signed up with Crystal Web for their R 1 promo to test out the network.

How do I cancel because I only want to give it a try for February?
When will the client portal go live?

They emailed my username and password but stated the account will only activate tomorrow so waiting.

You can use live chat for any queries.

Still no ETA on the news servers

07:21:38 PM) Support Impi: There is not update on the news servers management is working on it at the moment

Even their support centre clock is not working 100% :)

At least is their mobile data priced better than what Vodacom is selling it for.

The only sad part is I cannot use my Vodacom airtime to purchase mobile data through CW.
