More MWEB ADSL bandwidth for your buck

[boydan]

a little bit too little too late. Quite pathetic. Took two months to cancel in terms of notice period from Mweb and now they do it. Do they just wake up on a monday morning and make decisions. Pathetic - wont go back. Come on Web Africa, increase your caps now

Am I missing something here, but nothing was mentioned about a cap increase on the 1gig all-in ADSL package? My in-laws are currently paying R199 for 1gig cap w/ MWEB and I'd like to know if that package will get a cap bump too.

If only Vodacom will follow the example.....I hope the 10% extra on bundles was just a taste of what it to come. Come on VC!

So now I get 5 Gigs per month.Wonder what I will do with that as I have not yet used 400megs of my 3Gb cap this month.

[krycor]

I wonder if cybersmart will be increasing theirs too

 

[rambo919]

but will local cap also increase?

 

[MWEB]

No, still remains 10GB free for all accounts. Thereafter local only traffic will be charged at 3c per MB.

Note: there is no hardcap on local only to maintain conformance with ICASA's regulations regarding the provisioning of ADSL services.

 

[rambo919]

oh well at least most users hardly get to 10GB threshold, but with game demo sizes still on the increase it might become a problem in future. at this stage i use bout mayby 5gb local every month

 

[I am Penguin]

Small consolation. Do they expect us to jump sky high with joy? Freaking national bandwidth idits.

 

[SaiyanZ]

It's better than nothing. Look at things this way. Prices can only go down from now.

"Maintain conformance." Bleh.

Mweb: don't spoil your own announcement with this hardcap/softcap fudge!

 

[lpvoid]

WOOHOO! It starts!

bwhahahahaha Nice

What a lovely way to say, "We're still raping those ICASA loopholes to the best of our ability"

Euphemism of the day

WOOHOO! It starts!

It always starts. Problem is it never gets into gear.

I don't understand why ICASA can't just give it a cap. Why should I have to pay just because you can't put a brake on the downloading, it does not make any logical sense to me. I would have expepected atleast a redirected to a login/purchase page than find out that my PC as been used as a spam bot.

Thanks MWeb! 5GB ftw!

 

[LabAnimal]

yea the handouts are starting to filter thru..... however I think its pretty pathetic. They should be adding a zero next to each number! 1 should be 10, 2 should be 20...
