OpenWeb Suggestion

Thats 10 gigs for R150. You can get a 2gig/30 account for R165

edit: Which works out at only R5.15/gig. So it would have to be cheaper than that :p

Hey MrBeep

What do u think about : "adding an option to PAY for openbrowse"

SHot
 
Thing is, the 2gig/30 with 96k openbrowse is R196, so how much more would u be willing to pay?
 
How much would the above cost without the 2 gig international..? That is what i want
 
Indeed. I am with u on that one man. But apparently, despite the international making up most of the cost, this is not something that can be done by isps...

There were some calculations in another thread...

*searches...
 
All the OpenBrowse packages that we currently offer, are there for the long run :)

Cool :)

But I swear one of the usage emails had something about a price increase and all openbrowse packages except 192k being discontinued... probably didnt read properly as usual :D
 
are openweb usage email accurate ? because i get a different readings on isadsl.co.za and sasa ......... and those reading are way lower and make more sense
which do u believe more >?
 
Not sure, forsure :)

I dnt have adsl yet... Busy sorting out technicallities first
 
shame dude still waiting ? dont worry dude just keep bothering them
 
I did the calculations!!! Me, over here!!! Sitting in the DARK SINCE ESKOM IS PLAYING @#$#$ with my power!!!!

Another 'government' company pissing me off !!!!
 
More calculations:

If a 192K-IS-2GB-28GB account costs R229 from OpenWeb. (That is 192K OpenBrowse, IS account, 2GB Intl, 28GB local)

And a IS-2GB-28GB account costs R171 from OpenWeb. (Again, IS account, 2GB Intl, 28GB local - NO OpenBrowse)

Then: The 192K OpenBROWSE package costs R58 for the 28GB of local bandwidth. (R229 - R171 = R58)

So.... If you were to purchase a 10GB local only account for R119 from OpenWeb, then you should be willing to pay R20.71 for the OpenBrowse service as an 'add-on', for those 10GB. ((R58 / 28GB) * 10GB = R20.71)

But, that will probably NOT be financially viable for OpenWeb, since they are obviously relying on Contention Ratios to make their money !!!!!

So, you will probably end up paying the full R58 for the OpenBrowse add-on for any account.

SO: The cheapest account for local only bandwidth at the moment is: The 2GB-IS-28GB account !!!!! At only R5.70 / GB !!!!! (R171 / 30GB = R5.70)

Also from OpenWeb !!!! :cool:
 
Also, MrBEEP, I am really sorry to say this, BUT:

Your [NEW!! 1GB + 10GB One Month Stand Accounts from OpenWeb, only R121!] account is bull$hit.

- I am assuming that you are aiming it at a niche market, who either can't afford the 2GB-IS-28GB account, OR who just need a little something extra to see them through the end of the month!

For an extra R50, they would get an additional 1GB Intl bandwidth, AND another 19GB of local bandwidth!!!!

I am hoping that this is a niche market, and you do not push this as your main account to people who assume that this is "the best bang for their buck!!!!"

Razor i dnt think that many people would be willing to pay R50 *12 = R600 an year just for extra bandwitdth which they might not use..

Thats why he has both options.. :)
 
We sell many different accounts to suit many different types of people.

Like Ford who starts with the KA that looks like an octopus, we start with the 1GB + 10GB for R121.

They end off with the ***us, we end off with the 10GB + OpenBrowse 192k.

Different folks have different strokes and needs.

If we offer only one package, we would be called communist, and that is certainly NOT a tag I want to carry.

SO, our 1GB + 10GB local for R121 might be "bullsh*t", but there is a need for it, so we will sell it.
