Uncapped ADSL prices cut in Openweb promotion

Openweb launched a new promotion where it cuts its uncapped ADSL prices by up to 60%

It is subject to activating a debit order, and require a calendar month cancellation notice.

No thanks.

No thanks.

nice offer........

Some of us prefer to be in control of our bank accounts as opposed to letting creditors decide when and how much they will be paid

Also hate signing up for anything that requires a mandatory debit order. Stop-orders is the better way to go - with all the control in your hands...

Why is this being posted as an article if it is quite a normal promotion? It's been ongoing for years.

True, they're always running a great promotion; this isn't really a good reason not to promote them mind you? At least once in a while.

I guess. Perhaps I am directing my annoyance in the wrong direction. I find most of the article posted on the home page are not a great read anymore. Perhaps it's because I follow the site daily and post in the forums.

4Mbps – R299 per month Get shaped on 30GB?

What drivel.

 

[ThinkCentre]

Wow! It is quite a lot cheaper than Mweb!

Not Openweb. Go read their shaping policy. Contention ratio on this product on the other hand...

In my opinion anything is cheaper than Mweb. On their gold package at work and man its so slow during business hours, but fast after 5. Only reason why I havent moved to openweb / Afrihost is because of the 1 month cancelling thing, to much of a shlep.

Yeah I share your sentiment completely in this regard.

Stay away! Shaping lately on OpenWeb has been absolutely dismal, happy I've left.

The mandatory debit order is also so 80's.

I'm assuming it's a paid for advertorial - written by "Staff Writer" which usually indicates it a cut & pasted press release. Nothing wrong with advertorials if done right, but it should be marked as such.

Lower contention ratio.

This is true, but I got in on the R109pm promo, so I just suck it up. Shaping seems to ease up a little after 5pm and then by a lot after 10pm. Weekends are almost always unshaped.
