Neotel prices unchanged

We compare Telkom's new rates and those of Neotel

 

[killadoob]

does neotel even have any clients ?

telkom dont think so

 

[Chevron]

Sigh. If that doesn't highlight telkom's price gouging, nothing will.

It's cheaper to call telkom from Neotel than Telkom on net.

WTF?

Telkom must die.

In fire.

 

[Shred]

Phuck telkom to hell

 

[LazyLion]

go, go, go Neotel! Don't stop! roll it out until Telkom is forced to become competitive!

 

[medicnick83]

[Luf]

[Le^stat]

"I had one... but the wheels fell off"

 

[McGuywer]

I want Neotel!

Me 2!!!

 

[Moederloos]

I swear I need a PC just to calculate call costs these days.

How on earth will I know if I am phoning a Telkom client or a Neotel client, anyways?

Good point.

Same as on the cell networks I believe.

Same as on the cell networks I believe.

But there is Number Portability, so wouldn't know which network it is?

If you phone a cell that has ported to another network, you get 3 high pitched beeps before it rings. same thing will apply I believe. ie. You're calling off network now.

Okay,
Agreed.

Say what?
Sorry - but can you explain that to me? I have never heard those beeps before?

If you know someone who has ported from one cell network to another; call that person. Before you hear the cell ring, there will be 3 shorts beeps, then the normal ring, ring.

I can't explain it anymore than that....

Who "injects" those beeps? Is it standard - in other words, can one claim compensation if those beeps are not present?
If they are "injected" as a rule, why not just a "voice over" saying "CellC" "Vodacom" "Telkom" or whatever?

I appreciate you are not a rep ( ), but these questions need to be addressed.

EDIT: What happens if you TOO have ported to the same network the recipient has ported too?

That would be ideal!

Hmmm, good question, presume it will still beep. (the number being called has still ported, ie the 082/3/4 no longer means anything.)

The price doesn't make much difference if you don't get Neotel in your area. How many posters here are actually on Neotel?
