Most popular ADSL ISP's

[sparklehorse]

What ISP are you using for ADSL?
Can someone please set up a poll or something?

Webafrica seems one of the most popular ISP around. Good service and their online platform is easy to use. I use axxess...not entirely happy with their service but my ADSL works so can't complain.

I am with telkom, but I've tried openweb and so far openweb is my favorite, there was a poll about this sometime ago I believe?

 

[LethalChicken]

The most popular, in no particular order as I'm unable to sore alphabetically since I have forgotten the alphabet song:

SAOL, GamCo, WebAfrica, Openweb, AYCE (not sure how they doing after dropping the cheap 30G), Cybersmart, Imaginet and most unfortunately and sadly so Mweb and Telkom.

I couln't find a poll in my quick search
Anyway - I think a new one is in order.

Popularity differs greatly on this forum... people often get put off with the first hiccup... I am very happy at openweb, admittedly I wasn't all that impressed with their sales tactics and I hate the sleazy switchboard operater, but am happy overall... pretty good feedback to queries, etc. so far so good.

For me the biggest deal is the upstream provider. Am ultra happy with performance on Verizon.

Hey Thorin1.

We have recently changed our "Sleazy" Switchboard! We now Have what sounds like an american Movie Presenter welcoming OpenWeb clients!

As for the sales tactics... What happened?

IMHO the REAL test is when you DO have problems! Have a look on the forums and see how problems are dealt with in our microcosm. WA are always on the watch and go out of their way to deal with problems, even if they are not directly responsible for them.

OPENweb

OPENWEB! should become the next national operator

Yep been saying that for a while.

Webafrica once helped me at 3:30AM on a sunday morning, after that there was no turning back!

From what I hear Openweb is also awesome!

Either of these should be fine.

Yeah once I had a problem with my axxess account. Emailed them 3 times with no reply. I phoned them and they said they didn't get my email. Accounts dept still up to ****. Still with them tho...Just don't want to go thru the hassle of switching ISPs.

I use WebAfrica, their service rocks. The other provider I would look at (if I wanted an IS account) would be Openweb.

 

[Globetrotter]

I use WebAfrica. You can easily order/cancel everything online, submit support tickets etc. without ever interacting with anyone on the phone. Very easy-to-use online client area. But yes, I guess the big test is how good the service is if something goes wrong. Hasn't happened yet.

I'm very happy with Openweb, even though I've only had ADSL for a month now....

 

[VQuest]

Web Africa without a doubt. Been with them for about a year now and have been extremely impressed with both their service and support.

Cybersmart for teh win!!
