Internet & cell phone rip off

[spiff]

Friend of mine in living Ireland posted this to me:

" IM AN EX SOUTH AFRICAN LIVING IN IRELAND. AS FAR AS I CAN SEE U ALL BEING RIPPED OFF. ITS GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH 1ST OR THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES. I PAY R2OO A MONTH TO DOWNLOAD 15 GIGS. I HAVE A 085 CELL PHONE AND ALL MY 085 TO 085 CALLS AND TEXT R FREE 24/7. AND WE ONLY HAVE A POPULATION OF OVER 4 MILLION. SO WAKE UP SA."

And for R200 here we get like 500 odd mb's.. That Ireland deal is R13 per GB. Here it's 22 x more expensive.

yes and remember their population is a fraction of ours!

Ow.. my ear! They dont have Telkom in Ireland. Easy as that.

R200 for 15gigs??!?!?! in Ireland?

Sounds like your mate is being ripped off..

After searching for 5 minutes I found a 40gb account WITH a 5mb line for 22Euros, or a 15mb line with NO cap for 32 Euros.
