wow.....50 of them....they must be so proud

 

[Twista]

Well done!

Not that I will ever in my entire existence ever consider taking up your offers.

Treated the SA consumer like idiots.

Well, I hope you can make at least one success. Your name is currently in the gutters.

Just a question this whole exercise will increase their capacity by how much ??(wireless capacity )
10%,20% ??
Added to existing sites , converted sites , new sites ??? .

Yawn.At least the metropolitan areas will get to enjoy it...with all 50 of them base stations.

Please use decent kit Neotel, try a little future proofing if possible! Any idea on if they will be doing fixed wireless LTE only or dabble in roaming as well?

Good start, 50 base stations needs to grow to 500.
I would use them for data if the costs were less than eg R15/GB

I would be interested if Neotel has a prepaid LTE package and with a modem that works on other networks, I'm not prepared to be an early adopter of a doorstep modem locked into a contract with Neotel.

In fact I'd be using them right now for my monthly data needs if they had not decided to be Metropolitan players but served consumers all over the populated area's of South Africa. I mean....



Not a bad deal at all considering it's standard pricing and not promotional as is currently the norm in the mobile space(yes,I consider them mobile and not fixed line and don't get this fixed wireless thingie).Yes, even at up to 3.1Mbps speeds.

Yep their poor coverage means that neotel is basically non existent in my book.
