Hello all,

What is the opinion on telkom 10 mb uncapped including line rental for R799 deal.

What is your experience on telkom uncapped packages? My usage hardly hit over 100GB.
I recommend you go for the deal! Telkoms new fair use policy is absolutely forgiving.
I'm on a 4mb line an i clocked in about 300Gb which includes day surfering and night surfering
On a 10mb line you can easily clock about 500Gb no problem!
Where did you see this 10mb deal , I won't mind upgrading!

I use around 200GB a month on 4mbps uncapped, so no doubt the 10mbps package will be much higher. I'm looking at the same deal. :)

My understanding is the contract apply if you want the free router.

Month to month option is available, telkom sales did confirm this I recall.

Yes it available on month to month. Go back a few pages or search, it was discussed... however i do think the "special period" has expired but best to check...

The R799 deal is a sore point atm, it's not a question of "was" but "is". From my last invoice, VAT excl:



Total R876.12 or R998.78/mth including VAT.
Okay now I'm confused! So you're currently paying , let's say R1000 which includes landline , adsl and data so what did that R799 deal actually included ?

Land/voice line is not included in my figures or the deal.

The R799 deal comprises of the line items I quoted, as far as I know it's still available on contract with free modem or month to month without modem, ranger is going to investigate the price difference when the festive season is over.

Edit: just to clarify, I have been on 10Mbps uncapped for ages, when the R799 deal was introduced it was not made available to existing 10Mbps uncapped users in my position.

Seems the deal has ended and pricing has reverted to R999/mth - https://secure.telkom.co.za/today/shop/home/plan/home-uncapped-premium/

... guess all month to month users will be now paying the increased price while the 24 month contract users will continue to score.

Have a look at the Uncapped Internet tab, it is still there. Possible error by them...

As discussed earlier on the forum, the call centre stated that the month to month will continue with the R799.

Exactly why I went for the deal... on a M2M as I'm paranoid of contracts with the internet :crylaugh: so if a better deal comes around I can change just can't downgrade...
