So then once the 3+7 promo from Afrihost comes to a end, then the 3gig deal from Mweb will be cheaper right? Still ... I have learned my lesson when it comes to Cell C network. Dont think I will go there again.

@Mweb Guy : Is this a hardcapped, or softcapped offering?
What happens if you go out of bundle?

Havent experienced Mweb before, but comments do give an idea on their service. Can only say that it is a pleasure dealing with Afrihost and at these prices its like trading in BMW for KIA. Dont see a reason why someone will go for this, except for those who are already on cellc and want to save some money on data by switching between APNs...
Oh really? I've only really heard of them in passing and only here on MyBB. They are some minor ISP, but other then that, I know nothing of them.
Best marketing team in SA indeed

Tried Cell C before. Crushed my dongle the other day. Happy with Voda and MTN.

Hi The_Librarian
Once the base cap is exceeded, you will be billed at 15c per MB.
As was mentioned by Afrihost rep, they rely on word of mouth, which is much stronger then any other form of marketing, so their advertising budget goes into offering additional services to customers, for example free Mifi devices on launch of mobile packages and promotional data.
So maybe check with your friends why they upheld from you Afrihost mobile offerings on the launch.
Can you put a hardcap on the service or is strictly softcap? OOB shark of R150/GB can cause a massive bite at 4G/LTE speeds.

I hear what you saying Franna.
We do have the facility available to check the usage via My Account.
This OOB rate is Mweb purely trying to trick customers into getting overcharged. How come Afrihost can cap their customers, but Mweb, one of the biggest ISP's in the country can't figure out that their clients don't like being fooled into paying R150 per gig if they go past their cap. Despicable.
