Is OpenWEB legit?

Agreed, not only are they legit, they are also a pretty good ISP.
 
Openweb is the only ISP that has tempted me to move away from afrihost. I ain't budging though :p
 
yeah, for a few months straight recently was doing 300GB's a month.

Without any warning letters ;)

You are an abuser who spoils the Internet experience for the rest of us.
 
Been with OpenWeb for quite some time and I don't see myself changing any time soon. You won't go wrong with OpenWeb! Haven't tried Afrihost but been with just about every other ISP and OpenWeb has been by far the best!

Openweb is legit. A heckload of peeps on MyBB use them. Just remember that a test account is just that... a test/trial account - do not expect the performance to stay the same if you start (ab)using the account.

It's a trial account, take it with a pinch of salt, just saying ;)
I've tried OW about three times and each lasted about 3 months.
Can't fault their customer service.

To be honest, I got so confused with their different account names, I honestly couldn't tell which does what and what they're good for.

here are my issues

I decided to give open web a try thing month and I can tell I am not a happy customer at all.
I signed up for openweb on the 30th April 2013 by the 1st I asked to cancle and they said no thry upgrade me to the openweb gamers account will to tell you in a nice its R150 more and is even worst. I will igmit I am a heavy user but I didnt expect what I got.

1. All protocal are shaped not just p2p etc
2. Youtube is slow to load afrihost much quickers
3. Youtube buffers on a 4 meg line with nothing downloading didnt on my old ISP
4. Connection stability is terrible on thing like FTP and VPN I do a alot of remote support and opten have to download and upload big file Open I cannot do this. I have to date nopt being able to upload a 40 meg file without there crap service timing out.
5. I CANNOT ACCESS FNB.co.za yet on my 1 gig capped account which I just got from another ISP for free I can without a problem.
6. I applied my right as consumer and asked to cancle with in my 7 days grace and they refuse to cancle my account and refund me my money instead they say I need to email Zelda only email not speak yet when I signed up Zelda was happy to talk to me know I cannot get her on the phone.
7. P2P downloading is so crap have not got anything near max line speed since I have changed to them.
8. Skype calls quality is worse than using my 3G card due to throtaling


I challange OpenWeb to address my concerns as these are legitmate concerns and I not getting anywhere except a call centre.

I want my money back you can deduct for the 7 days I tried the service.
