Oh all right!, another OW Offer thread :D

As OP, I'm going to make this a Queen thread just to provide some form of escape from reality:p

Anyone feel free to add their choices (doesn't have to be Queen) :)

My single regret in life is that I will never see bands like Queen live.

Also, haha to Keoma copying CW's offering. I wonder how long the honeymoon period will last for.
 
THE TRUTH ABOUT OPENWEB


1. All accounts get SHAPED and/or THROTTLED to death... Yet its clearly stated on their website you would never been THROTTLED. During the day my speed seldom exceed 40kbps on a 4mb account

http://businesstech.co.za/news/colum...idiculous-isp/

2. Only "ISP" that don't keep track of your usage, but LOTS of OW accounts are being SHARED. I got the proof of my account being shared

http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/attachme...5&d=1401824885
http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/attachme...3&d=1401832605

3. Access to http://userstats.adsl.saix.net/ & http://users.isdsl.net/ blocked and they are lying about usage stats when they are in fact correct and because it was too easy to see account sharing and correct usage, another lie

3. Resell IS, MTN etc products and thus don't need an office as most of their stuff are done by IS etc anyway. Its called "ISP in a Box". They buy "X" amount of gigs per month from IS, MTN etc and manage it as they see fit, thus the endless types of specials and account types.

4. Only got a handful of employees - Leon, Zelda, Leoni, Charmaine. Athol and Keoma the members of the CC.

5. They use various names - OpenISP, Openweb, Myopenweb etc.

6. Committed FRAUD with their CIPRO registration using a false address etc.

http://www.cipro.co.za/ccc/EntDet.as...'&T2=OPENISP

http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/attachme...9&d=1402495556

7. Not registered as an ISP with ISPA or ICASA.

https://www.icasa.org.za/Portals/0/R...abase_0711.pdf

8. Incorrect Lindekin data.

http://www.linkedin.com/company/openweb.co.za

9. No ability to resolve account issues besides giving out other accounts which are already in use...

10. Blaming Telkom/router for everything yet accounts with other ISP's are working 100%

11. Constant account authentication issues...

12. Their MyBB accounts stopped responding the 9th of May.

13. "I'm afraid due to the destructive nature of the forum, we have suspended support here." The answer I got from OW about MyBB.

"Who is Keoma Wright?
Keoma Wright is a revolutionary IT mogul, radio enthusiast and entrepreneur who is also a born and bred South African citizen. He has achieved a great many firsts in South African web technology in the whirlwind twenty seven years of his life.

It all started with Keoma’s first love – radio. During the period 2003 to 2005, Keoma worked as a radio DJ on KwaZulu-Natal’s hottest jazz radio station, the former P4 radio. He also performed voice overs for many of South Africa’s national brands at this time." - keoma.co.za

Keoma would have started Openweb Radio but it did not materialized yet.

We all dream... but some live in a dream it seem...

Just stating all the known facts. Customers should know whom they deal with.
 
Fukn hell things must be getting desperate at OW. Resorting to copy cat style accounts.

As if bull shatting customers and sharing accounts wasn't bad enough, now you gotta try copy a business model introduced by a competitor.

Fuk off Keoma go spin ur shyte somewhere else!

The truth about OpenWeb, there is no truth at OpenWeb....

some of the links had been removed by MYBB

Hmmmmm I wonder if the OpenWeb banners all over the site have something to do with that?
Such a pity that the forum has come to this, the moment an ISP pays for advertising all their fckups seems to disappear from myBB and as a result the bad reviews are gone from google....
