http://www.speedtest.net/result/2153106759.png supposed to be a 4mb line :(

Starting to doubt if should have signed with Afrihost. :(

First day in and already ****!

It's not too late to take Mweb Guy up on his offer for a trial account... :erm:

If Mweb works better for you, I think AH still has a money back guarantee as well - win-win situation

Sounds like a plan :D

Let me know if you are still interested in the 7 Day FREE trial account.

Been with Afrihost, Openweb Gold, Mweb and Webafrica and out of all of them I like Mweb the most. Dont need to worry about any form of being throttled and as long as you dont try download the internet (as per multiple posts about abuse note the monthly GB).

Been with MWEB previously , moved to AH and now back at MWEB again. Penny wise pound foolish , my time and sanity is worth a lot more than R70pm. MWEB all the way.

Moved over from Mweb to AH - so far very happy. No complaints.

From someone who's been with Afrihost Uncapped, Webafrica Uncapped, Openweb Gold Uncapped and currently Mweb Uncapped 4mbit I can reccomend MWeb.

The best route to go is to have a look and see what people are complaining about, for

mweb - I have only seen line speed upgrades and the abuse mails which seem to be from the closer to 500GB mark.
Afrihost - I have seen varying speed related complaints and throttling complaints after reaching higher usage.

It's always best to look at the complaint threads over the praise threads to make your decision.

Edit: You will probably see me defending MWeb quite a lot, I migrate ISP's to whoevers best and currently thats MWeb.

Thanks for the input here. I have had a few days to mull over exactly this decision, and come crunch time, this thread has helped tremendously. :)

@MWeb Guy, how quickly can you get me up and running?

Hi Raithlin, if you already have a active adsl line then we can get you activated within an hour.

Send me your contact details and I can arrange for you to be contacted.

We have had these terrible speeds since we started with mweb, have now cancelled and try Afrihost month end.
1mg uncapped. The husband bitterly complains constantly about the high pings while playing BF.

With results that bad you sure its not due to bad line stats.
