Is there HSDPA coverage in Strand, Somerset West or Gordons Bay?

This is the planned sites for 3G phase 2 which should be completed by the end of July

Western Cape Somerset West CBD Helderberg
Western Cape Somerset Mall Helderberg
Western Cape Somerset West CBD Helderberg


Don't see anything for Gordons Bay :(

@ MTNDD

Why is Durbans coverage so bad, there is only coverage in the CBD and a little in Pinetown. Or is the coverage map out of date????

MTN HSDPA in Bellville

Imagine the huge grin on my face when I locked on at 1.8 Mbps this afternoon in the Welgemoed area! Wow! ...and I thought 3G roll-out for the area was only on the cards for July.

What? I inquired on the coverage call centre this afternoon and they said there's neither HSDPA nor 3G coverage for Bellville. :confused:

I think MTN has forgotten where Durbs and KZN is. They are just ensuring that all the vacation spots of the executives have coverage, then they will relax. I am sure if we can convice one of the execs to actually come to KZN for a change in Dec, we may actually get some coverage down here. dont you agree, MTNDD???

All the MTN reps on this forum - please inform your marketing & website teams that they SERIOUSLY need to update the coverage map and get it back to customers within a week, maximum a month. Though I believe MTN's coverage is better than the map suggest wrt BB, that map does not give me much confidence. From that map on the website, I will not even consider MTN.
