Caps are so last year

So the people with 1 gig still get 1 gig? Wow, winner.

agreed..... the fact that we still have the option to use capped internet on fixed lines are horrific.

So the people with 1 gig still get 1 gig? Wow, winner.

Pay R20 more to get 4gigs.

Exactly what I am going to do. No point in keeping a 1Gb cap any more.

R15 per gig for unshaped is not bad. Axxess and Afrihost is about R19.

Getting better ......not all people nead unlimited accounts

They're effectively dropping the 1gig option. The CPA dictates they can't increase the price of a product in contract, they can only decrease or improve what you get for your money, so they have to keep that bottom price point. By making it a crap product, it's the closest they can say to "we don't do this anymore".

I think it's the right move. They could have increased it to 2gig.. but what's the point! 4gig is a nice minimum to have.

 

[Smiley_lauf]

seriously...are we still talking about capped products...what gives?

 

[ichigo]

Nice I am happy that it is 16 gigs now I can download my movies or series that I need without worrying.

 

[waynegohl]

mummy will be so pleased!

thank you Telkom persons.
