So I just got my email with updated "Telkom AUP" for broadband uncapped consumers.

It says:
"The good news is that Telkom recently revised its AUP for Uncapped LTE. LTE Uncapped customers now receive 300GB of full speed data per month. "

Clearly, someone at Telkom did not go to Google, i know its hard but type "define uncapped"..

Here, i did it for you...

uncap
ʌnˈkap/Submit
verb
past tense: uncapped; past participle: uncapped
2.
remove a limit or restriction on (a price, rate, or amount).
"they would uncap local spending"

Uncapped =/= Unshaped

Get used to it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

lol, there is still a limit even if its shaped afterwards :)

I dont know why they must use crooked wording? Tell me i'm getting 300GB's per month at R999 and then only 2mbps after that and i'll still buy it - just don't make me think i'm getting something "uncapped" when there's clearly a "limit" to the rate.

I agree with you.

You are a bit late to the pity party - there is already a thread on this product, of over 100 pages....

Bottom line is: uncapped doesn't work in SA - people are greedy.

Wonder if I can still cancel for free, getting line installed on Thursday.

Think it would be easier just to sell LTE package to someone else.

Yeah also got the email but it's been active since 1st of September I think then just revised after consumer back lash.... So yeah I guess the email is just a reminder.
