I requested to have my ADSL line speed upgraded to 1MB last week. It still didn't happen![]()
Hi DarkSpectre
I'll look into it as there is a 7-21 working day TAT by Telkom.

yes I am going through the mweb.co.za page. Alternatively, maybe you can check if my account is up and running correctly. I'll PM you the account name (I'm also still waiting for the application form confirmation)

Hi Mweb Guy! I'm having problems with my line, where my connection disconnects every 3-5 minutes. When this happens I wind up with no International access for 1-2hours, or at best VERY slow International access.
Telkom have popped in twice and we'd have the filters and router changed, DSLAM checked along with the line tested for noise etc.
Hey Mweb Guy, what usage would be considered excessive under the Acceptable Usage Policy?
Hi Lazy.Me
It is not a matter of how much you download but rather the way in which you download. If you bypass our shaping rules that would constitute abuse.
Dear MWEB Customer
This email serves as a notice regarding your MWEB ADSL service.
Your current ADSL usage pattern shows repeated instances of prolonged download sessions at line, or near line speeds which is placing an undue burden on our network and is not in keeping with our Acceptable Usage Policy.
Please acknowledge receipt of this notice within 24 hours, indicating your intention to rectify the situation. It would also be helpful if you provided us with some feedback on the activities you were engaged in so that we can advise you on the choice of a more appropriate product to suit your specific needs.
Failure to comply with this request will result in additional warnings being issued and will ultimately result in the cancellation of your service.

Hi Guys how are you all? I would like to give my input with mweb dsl....
This is after i loved them, and revered clients to them, 2 actually in the last month lol....
No one called me what so ever to let me know i only got letters, and then i called technical, they put me trough to acc, acc back to techies etc... ai
Since last month i have received 2 warning letters from MWeb abuse department, stating that i abuse the line etc.
So i gave them a call, on the second letter and spoke to the lady, whom i cannot remember nor the ref number they gave me.
She then spoke to the manager and she told me the port is still showing i am Downloading how-ever i am not Downloading anything lol.
So she told me the manager said i must switch of my modem at-least, every 3rd day as for my modem does not close the port etc...
SO i did it... Okay last week i forgot to stop a download during the day.... i was wrong there cause i usually download during evenings okay..
What i would like to know is, today i got a letter for termination of my acc cause of the 3rd warning letter i received today..
My point been is, i rarely Download during day, do not use SSL or p2p or torrent's, and my friend do on the same line like 400gig+ a month i barely do 200+ a month? Thanks guys..
Hi PieterShaun
Please provide me with your MWEB account details and I'll look into why our Abuse team sent you the 3 warnings.

Hi PieterShaun
I had a look into your account and can see why our Abuse department has made contact with you. I'll advise reading through the emails they have sent, where they usually explain themselves or email them back.
Hi Schitzo
Do you get these results whole day or at certain times of the day?
Hi Mweb guy,
Speed issue last night has been sorted out, i have a quick question, previously on this thread i asked you
You then replied:
Which is all good and well, until i get this:
Please explain where the change of heart came in?
Hi MWEB guy
Sorry I'm always bugging you and permanently on your case, but the service is even worse since the technician 'supposedly' fixed it.
Hiya! Thanks for responding! I get them intermittently, but every day at somewhat specific times (10am, 2pm, 4pm-9pm). Right now, my international is crawling. Could it be a possible Telkom line fault?
