ITNT Capped DSL Feedback

I'm possibly going to keep making use of their 10GB account if I need extra bandwidth.

For R10, it seems to work pretty well.
 
I registered and I thought those who registered before the price increase would still qualify for the cool prices. Unfortunately I see that the prices have changed to the increased pricing. When happened to "Good news for the early adopters who signed up while the prices were sitting at R1 per GB is that these rates will be honoured until the end of the year."
 
Seems ITNT have new package deals with some weird top-up now... WTF.

I'm not sure it is worth while signing up to see whether it is R1 per GB top up for upto 1TB of data.
If that is how it works though and is available on their 5+5GB account then not a bad deal.
 
once bitten twice shy, but seeing they could not honour their initial advertisement what's stopping them from not just not honouring this one. For those that do sign up hope they keep to their model this time as when it works its great.
 
Realised I had 5-odd gigs left. Speeds flying tonight.

Yep, considering half your bandwidth is confined from midnight to 6am, the pricing is ludicrous.
 
10GB for R10 is still available as the links are still live on www.cappedadsl.co.za/index.php#packages
there new lottery system for top-ups or "live top-up pool"
www.itnt.co.za/adsl-capped.php
is unfortunately not live, or at least not to me on the original 10GB package. Perhaps that is only available if you sign up for one of the new half-data packages where you can't use half the gigs during the day.
 
Hi guys,

I ordered a 100gb acc last month and though it was just a once off purchase for 100gb. Today I noticed that the clientzone says

Tel No Username Base Package Login Traffic Status Valid
01148xxxxx [email protected] 100GB 2014-10-01 00:00:00 0 MB Active Valid Detail Topup


ie. I got a new bundle this month. I used their VCS credit card payment option. Did I just get charged for the new month, and can they take money from my account this way?

Edit: Realized its a month to month account. Anybody know what price I would have been charged for this? Original R1 per gig or new prices...

I made sure that I logged in and cancelled yesterday, even though I bought a "once off" ... just in case. Won't trust this company again. I still had 12GB left and just decided to cut my losses and avoid any potential unwanted surprises this month.

The way I understand it is if you took the prepaid option, then it was a once only thing, but if you took the account option then they will bill you automatically and they will hold the same price till 31 December. Who knows?

That is correct. If anyone needs further clarity, or to confirm cancellation (because it's always better to have these things in writing) drop an email to [email protected]

I got a reply from Grant who confirmed that my account is indeed cancelled and that I will not be billed for another month.

The "live pool top-ups" are only available when you reach 80% cap. So no chance for me to supplement my small 10GB package in the first 5 days of the month. So likely no cheap topups left for me after that. I'll not pay more than R2/GB

In terms of the early capped usage warnings, I suspect they have confused their new and old accounts. The new ones only allow half you data to be used by day and the rest after midnight. The initial offer had no such time restrictions. They have probably setup a blanket monitoring system.

Can't you buy 10GB data, complete it in the first 1-2 hours, then topup 200GB for R200 from the R1 pool? Or am I understanding this wrong?

Yes, if you have the connection speed and enough to download. I don't so I was speaking of my circumstances.
