Metrofibre Feedback

I don't see anything for PE. There is a bunch like Glen Austin, Noordwyk, Montana, Sinoville, Turfontein but nothing for PE yet if it's an outage.

Ah. I reported via client zone and they gave me a reference.

@AfriNatic Also in PE and am down as well

Came back online now.. after load shedding, lol

 

[LabAnimal]

back to normal this morning

Are you in Glenwood?

@wingnut771 can do you some speed tests for this oke?

@Ghostfibre @ghostRgg can you confirm it's an MFN issue?

Yes I am, seems resolved, was a bit weird how it was dipping lastnight...

Here is the announcement you were waiting for

Honestly new branding is much more modern, and the 250/250 for R799 is so good holy ****

 

[frost717]

From what I can see, packages are as follows:

20/20 - R399
250/250 - R799
500/500 - R1099
1000/500 - R1249

Wonder what ISP pricing will look like for 250/250, I imagine it'll be the same price.

Big announcement is the price reduction and speed increase has been brought to new MFN signups as well. Previously it was for current MFN clients only.

Which means, expect similar offerings in May from partner ISPs.

250/250 at R799 is very good considering Afrihost offers 100/100 at R897.

I already predicted ~R700pm for 250/250 for partners when May comes around.

It will be slightly higher I think, but it is very competitive pricing which hopefully forces other FNO's

I always like to use a -R100 rule with MFN.

What is this 250/250 you guys are talking about? Is this only from May onwards or something ?

We are hoping that MetroFibre also makes this speed available to ISPs as we are very keen to sell the service. As it stands currently that is a MetroFibre ISP exclusive speed.

Right now most ISPs are upgraded to 400Mbps till May, I imagine new packages will be introduced when the 400Mbps promo ends

Let's not pretend that MFN isn't going to offer it to partners in May.
No ways MFN just kills their partners.

Currently MFN exclusive. MFN Direct is offering 250/250 for R799.

Effectively kills all partner-ISP competition in that range.

Ridonkulous if they don't. Will pretty much leave ISPs dead in the water with many MF customers.

I will have to give it a go despite AH's stellar service ever since I've switched to fibre once it became available in my area. Hopefully you guys will be making a big noise over this
