Received a call this morning from Bonnie (Rain/I-Burst consultant) regarding a query I sent them as to what's happening going forward.

She advised that management are currently in discussions regarding packages/deals and plans for going forward. A decision will be made shortly and we'll be notified within the next 2 weeks. She confirmed that we will not be dropped from the Rain/I-Burst coverage come 1st September.

We await in anticipation....

Further -
I have received e-mail confirmation of this morning's telecon. In such it clearly states the following -
"On 31st August your LTE-A connectivity will not stop, and we will bill you the R ***,** for September LTE subscription." (note - the amount is my current I-Burst monthly subs).

Cheap at the price for another month at least....;)
 
They should actually give us all uncapped LTE-A for early connect (this way we could put some load on the network to test it out)

They should also not cap our speeds too low (to see if the towers can handle a load of 100mbit or 150mbit)

At the moment they capping the speeds so if 100users apply for a specific tower... then it's gonna crunch down...
 
Call them, they can then check the system if you did enroll (I hope you enrolled early)

Then they will send you forms if your within the zone.

I enrolled when the first notice came out.
When I spoke to them, about 2 months ago, they said I must wait and see how the coverage extends etc.
But will definitely call them again to hear what the situation is.

Thanks
 
Took out the Early.Connect offer for my parents to replace my old iBurst I left behind when moving out years ago.

Do any of you know how to check your usage on Rain? For example a dashboard with allocation and remaining data?

At this stage there is no provision for usage/data balance available for RAIN. Hopefully it comes soon. (Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Early.Connect participants don't have details on packages/deals going forward yet).
 
I also asked for Usage site and login details... but nothing yet.


Cause obviously with LTE and LTE-A your data is flying so quick... one needs to monitor that stuff tight.....
