Look at these pricing. Pretty decent if you ask me. Ive yet to see people talk about sainet.co.za for some reason.

R59 for 2GB of data which is effectively R29.50 per GB But you get 6GB local too. Which makes it a even cheaper deal. So its actually less than R29.50 per GB if you factor in the 6GB local.

Any 1 using sainet. I might just get me one of those accounts.

Would that local be on the IS or SAIX backbone?

Well you haven't been really looking have you? There's a dedicated article on myBB for them, and they are mentioned in quite a few other articles on myBB. They've also been discussed quite a bit in the forums...

You've actually got it slightly wrong. For R29.50, you can get either 2GB of international only data, or 6GB of of local only data. Or a combination of the two. The account has split billing, with international and local bandwidth being billed at different prices. If you do the calculations, local-only data is billed at about R9.83 per GB.
so
- R29.50 per GB = international
- R9.83 per GB = local
- all linked to the same single ADSL account
- all appears on the same bill.

Revolutionary! What we've been asking ISPs for for years! The offer sounds pretty darn good to me. Not sure about speed and stability, but I've heard good things about SAINET in the past.

They have problems with news servers, so if news servers are important to you, wait while they sort their sh*t out.

My mistake. I made a error. But @ R29.50 per GB its still cheap.
