I used up the 5GB cap yesterday, and was on a local session. But this morning I logged back in to download on local bandwidth from the SAIX news server, but I noticed I had international access too. And I still do.

Anyone else experiencing this? Is it a gremlin? Or is it some new bandwidth trial? Or is it just Telkom's way of rubbing Mweb's nose in the muck?

"No, you can't have spare international capacity, Mweb. We need it all for our... our... erm... our capped clients!"

Will max my Telkom today and try my luck :P

I am at 4.6GB combined usage will finish the 400mb today.
 
The same thing happened last month and then it was a bug. I am too scared to ask them again this month in case we alert them to the issue ;)
 
I like the way you think RPM :P Now if only Gatecrasher would learn to just PM the important people (i.e. ME) and keep this out of the pubic eye :O

Still going strong. Enjoying this Telkom uncapped.
 
Capped at 10 GB :(

As a rule we should not mention these "bugs" in explicit terms. We must look at a code phrase to alert MyBB members to the "bug".

There are Telkom spies lurking here in.

Another example is a link to a public Telkom website I posted some time back, which showed you which exchange your line is linked to by looking at the first 6 digits of your phone number. Two days later the page at the Telkom site was encrypted.... cannot be coincidental.
