Internet banking - 1 November

[DigitalSoldier]

Most companies pay their employee's from the 25th of each month and if we get hardcapped what will most of these companies do if they are capped before the 25th and cant pay their employee's. And most of them use the "bigger" isps so they wont know about the IS offering. But then again if they find out about IS offerings saix will lose a lot of customers

Hopefully the bigger ISPs will all move to IS

doesn't make sense for the "bigger" ISPs to move to the unknown and probably smaller ISPs

Who are the bigger ISPs you refer to? Mweb is already with IS. The other smaller ones can easily become IS resellers. Sadly IS IPLC to ADSL clould will collapse however (like it did with Uunet).

Dude, what do you mean? Of course what you said doesn't make sense. The bigger ISP's may move to IS like some smaller ISP's have.

A company that can afford to be offline by the 25th and not purchase extra capacity is close to dying anyway...

We will manage internet usage much stricter after 1 November than currently - and the employees are blaming the ban on sending personal mails on Telkom....

Dont they send tapes to the bank and then it gets run? I know one insurance company updates their dlt "type" tapes and sends them to the bank or some place, and there the debit orders gets run.

Tapes are only used by BIG companies. The SMME market use mostly internet banking for their payments, be it salaries or invoices. And they WILL be hit hard!

As for saying a company is close to dying if they can not afford extra capacity, that's bull! With the prices charged, and the unfair practice of not transferring the leftover capacity to the next month, it is simply TOO DAMN expensive! But, luckily, there's still dial-up to be used for banking if really needed!

If they cant pay cause of capping then ill be the fastest person to setup gprs on their pc, and at no charge of course.
