Shot across the bow

Neotel's new tariffs signal a willingness to compete vigorously with Telkom on price

Off topic:

It sounded like yet another story on piracy LOL!

bring it!

Loving the competition .. I see a data only offering is being launched before next year ... If I had been Neotel .. I wouldve looked at that first .. considering a large percentage of the ADSL population only have Telkom lines for ADSL and use cellphones for everything else ...

As soon as Neotel launch a data only offering .. Im gone .. cheers Telkom.

Most MyBroadband users will say they want high caps .. but at this stage .. anything remotely similar to Telkom caps without the monthly line rental is fine for me for now .. I'll hang in for Seacom for great big cap specials ...

Go Neotel

I have great coverage at the office... it's just the problem of actually trying to sign up. They did finally get me all the paperwork... but it is a huge amount of paperwork

good for you; none where i live at (pta faerie glen) so it was dsl and telkom in the end. Which amazingly was done within 48 hrs after application as well without hazzles.

Uncapped and high-usage broadband solutions should become commonplace in the next few years.

Can we get this in writing, signed and put into legislation??

When will they be supplying ISP's with wholesale bandwidth...???

I thought they now have access to the landing station and can supply their own international links..

Show me broadband to rival telkom and i might actually look at neotel.

Show me a 4c saving and i laugh in your face.

If I had an internet voice for all of my posts relating to that, it would be hoarse.

nah... just the basics...

1) Three months Bank Statements or canceled cheque.
2) CK1 and/or CK2 documents or founding certificates.
3) Copy of ID
4) Application form
5) Trade references

BUT... everything has to be certified.

 

[AntiThesis]

Still no coverage in my area. Come on NeoTel!

All I want is quality and good prices

 

[Pooky]

A coverage is a coverage is a coverage.
