I am hoping to hear this week. There is a meeting scheduled for Wednesday so I am really hoping that they are coming with some new figures to the table.

We had our meeting yesterday to cover various issues including new pricing.

The Associate Product Manager tasked with the new pricing for Plugg will have his bit completed coming Friday morning, now that they completed reseller pricing. I have however been asked by IS' Product Portfolio Manager - "creating expectation around beginning Feb, we always know that unforeseen delays will creep out of the woodwork." (sic)

So 9.5 gigs from 00 h00 to 06h00

Not bad - and stars are intact.

Yeah, I normally download between those hours thinking that that extra hour from 11pm would effect the rating somehow. This is also another aspect of what I am testing. So, tonight I am aiming for 11GB :D

I feel for you.

Large SA corporates - dilly dallying while competitors eat their lunch.

Sigh.
 
Still the same:

I'm going to carry on with the test, but will only post here if there is a change.

I wonder if the pricing changes will be put on hold due to Telkom cutting the IPC cost again. These are the changes following October's cut. Seems a bit slow moving.
 
My other question I have been having of late is why I am paying the premium. When I joined, the experience was great. They allowed downloading on a weekend. The stars stayed at 4 for the bulk of it. Of late, I feel that it is just not worth the money. Just my thoughts atm.
 
Question. If we can expect only new pricing in February, are we going to pay old pricing again for February, or are you guys going to announce it in time to pay new pricing in February?
