i wouldnt go with Mweb, even if they paid me....its a typical example of a company being to big for its own good and exploiting the general public....are Telkom and Mweb bum chums????
anyway, the problem is that the average joe on the street who had an mweb dial-up does not know any different. as was mentioned changing from dial-up to adsl is a phone call away. what actually needs to happen is better marketing from the smaller reseller's and educate the guy on the street. for the most part joe blog thinks there are only 2 ISP's, Mweb and Telkom...
not everyone knows about hellkom or myadsl either...tho sum average pleb does take the time to do the research...the majority just accept it, and so mweb and its bum chum telkom basically feel its justified to ask high prices. only so that telkom can say, but prices are good and fair, see how many people are on adsl *pointing to mweb* and fine with it... BAH!!!!!!
i am with OpenWeb and Webafrica, both are FANTASTIC!!!! i would rather pay less for more, then more for less....
