Interested to see how much users have been getting off their IS accounts this month,the 30GB ones that is, what with endless promises of free local bandwidth from Telkom...

I am at 25GB right now - gonna push it in the remaining 11 days though...

What about you guys?

It varies. I am on a 2gig/30 account for R151 which means your first two gigs are international and from then on its local only.

People seem as wary as I am to go over the 30 gig mark...

I just haven't needed to test it this month as I have three accounts and only just started my third one now.

I few months ago though I got 59 GIGs out of one 30 GIG account :p

Just to be sure no one actually wonders why they implemented the cap right? :p

Meanwhile back on the farm . . . . I might be able to eek out 30gb this month. Still relying heavily on easynews and saix though.

So you don't think the mere notion of charging for local bandwidth is a ridiculous one in the first place?? :confused:
I think treating international bandwidth any differently than local is idiotic. There shouldn't be a restriction on either.
