Flat-rated mobile data for Samsung Galaxy smartphones

Xtreme Data and Xtreme Data Premium packages from Nashua Mobile now available for Samsung Android devices.

This makes a total mockery of this 10cent argument…..

Depends how much they shape you...

For R150 I'd rather just get 1gb from cell c. Not even R15 uncapped unshaped would tempt me into signing any contract with nashua mobile.

 

[AlmightyBender]

Cell C: R0.15 * 500MB = R75

Nuff said

 

[Polymathic]

Rather pay R60 and get 400mb from Cell C TBH

In what way? You obviously did not read the article

Xtreme Data offers subscribers unlimited access to email, browsing, social networking and instant messaging from their handsets at a fixed cost of R59 per month.
...
Customers will experience a decrease in download speeds once they have exceeded a threshold in their data usage for the month: 100MB for the Xtreme Data standard service and 400MB in the case of Premium.

And since this is Nashua, do you really believe there is any value to the consumer?

Oh My Lord....why would you even sign up for this?????

 

[Fudzy]

I stopped reading when I saw Nashua Mobile.

10 foot barge pole. Touch it not therewith.

 

[McCrazieGoalz]

Did anyone else notice the glaring absence of the SGSIII from the list of devices to which this service can be provided?

The SIII IMO has more users than the entire list of phones.

What is the rationale behind this glaring omission?

Just askin'.

 

[The_Ogre]

Never!

 

[rph72]

LOL , Will stick to my CellC hotspot - 500MB at R75.

 

[Hummercellc]

Samsung's most popular phones left off the list S2 & S3, wonder why?

 

[defcomk]

DaF*Q is this SMH they Cap You and block you whats worse than that article is the people that will say " Wow Great Deal"

 

[cozinsky]

This is not uncapped! Besides, you deal with Nashua Mobile at your own peril. I will pass.

 

[LinuxMan]

yeah and i bet you get shaped to almost nothing, once you exceed the monthly threshold :wtf:
Data should just be free

Data is practically free for all intents and purposes. The fact is, we are getting badly ripped off.

XDS has a clearly defined fair usage policy (FUP), limiting users to speeds of 512kbps from the get-go and throttling them to 256kbps after using 100MB and to 56kbps after hitting the threshold of 160MB.

so when will Vodacom introduce this? NM's billing and accounting is straight from hell but I won't mind the package direct from Vodacom.

You're kidding, right? Those prices for those speeds are a total joke!
