Telkom only hurts itself with it's current pricing model.

What accounts are you talking about? On ADSL they have a 1G/5G/9G accounts for R79/R149/R239. Or are you talking about the unshaped 4G which goes for R489? The unshape is really expensive, but is also really unshaped. I used it a bit a while ago, but found that the cheaper alternatives are not that much slower.

 

[BrianStephan]

Yes I was talking about the unshaped bandwith

 

[BrianStephan]

Very interesting question how is it possible that Mweb asks R475 for 4G unshaped data and Axxess offers unshaped data at R19G? I am with Axxess and a friend of mine is with Mweb and I am getting way better speeds and responses from my R19G than what he is getting at Mweb?

This. The majority of South Africa either don't know about other ISPs, or believe their best bet is still with Telkom.

Still need the Telkom line 'tho...

True, know a guy who runs Internet cafe and buys those gigs from telkom. He showed me his telphone bill and it was R2500~ Told him about those uncapped deals and other isp.

Idiot...

The problem is you get many people who aren't very PC-savvy - they get their monthly Telkom bill, see the insert for "always on fast DSL etc etc", call Telkom and order because they just don't know better.

Very true like they say ignorance is bliss for those who benifit.
