Hi,

I want to move from Afrihost Uncapped as i'm over their unethical business practices.

First they rig ISP votes and then they no longer deliver what I pay for. Paying for 8mbps and getting 2mbps... (line syncing at 8mbps).

I'm thinking of moving to Vox?

Any other options I should be aware of? Want to move line + bandwidth in a bundle deal to save some cash.

Thanks,

What's your usage like per month?

When do you use most of your data(time of day)?

Do you stream, download, or game more?

Stream via Netflix.
News server downloads.
Occasional torrenting.

Mixed usage.

I'm looking at Line + bandwidth + uncapped bolt on from VOX at the moment, just seeing if they have a bundle price for line + data.
 
Leave your line with Telkom or you gonna have downtime on your internet.

Don't go uncapped you never really get the speeds you want from it.

I like Axxess because I always get the speeds my line is capable of and you can you cancel your line by the 25th if you not happy.

Vox has great deals and the uncapped at night on their capped products. Their data also rolls over from month to month but you need 30 days to cancel.

Crystal Web you get uncapped at night on their capped products and can cancel your line by the 19th if you not happy.

These are my top 3 but you never gave us your usage in gigs so can't recommend a product for you.
 
honestly as long as you stay away from Web Africa, Afrihost and Mweb you cant go wrong.

Web Africa has actually made it to the top of my personal Worst ISP list in the past week.


Vox is amazing, been super happy with them for the last month. they do not have a news server though
 
I have moved from AH to VOX and its a dramatic difference. I kept the line with Telkom, so this gives me a bit of flexibility. FWIW - AH's metering with bandwidth was overreporting - my usage is pretty constant and with AH my usage was always >600GB/pm, with VOX it is around 400GB (my second thought was that I had so much packet-loss with AH, which resulted in more consumption).
