Uncapped ADSL pricing touted at an all time low

Imaginet has reduced its uncapped ADSL prices, claiming to be the cheapest in South Africa

Excellent Prices!

Just Sad that a Trusted ISP like Afrihost takes so long to reduce their uncapped packages, I dont care about their "cheaper Capped" accounts, I want my 384kbps uncapped to also cost R149pm from afrihost.

All well and good being the cheapest, but IS's AUP is not very good if you ask me.

Who do afrihost use as their backbone?

Internet Solutions (IS) I think.

But I have already downloaded 55GBs on my 384kbps uncapped without any sign of shaping.

At 384 you are doing the shaping yourself.

All good and well they just must not use this as an excuse later to not lower prices further

lol @ "all-time". It's not like we had ADSL before 2002, and consumer-grade uncapped before 2010.

246 gig so far on a account 4mb uncapped with IS

Let the games begin...

Who's next to try and be the "top dog" with the lowest prices?

 

[DragonMolester]

Now if only the 4meg accounts were just R100 cheaper

Now if only the 4meg accounts were just R100 cheaper

That will never happen, the 4Mbps uncapped accounts is already cheap.

While ADSL is FINALLY coming down - everything else is going up... soon we're going to have to cancel our internets to pay for everything else

Uncapped 10Mb needs to be addressed.

I would love to move over to a 10Mb line, but that uncapped price is way over my budget...

It is still far too expensive. These tiddly decreases mean sweet FA, we want it to be half the current price or less. If Morocco can have it at a fraction of our prices, why can't we? Are the Moroccans any more honest than Telkom?

I think you just answered your own question.

there just a few km's away for europe so their undersea cables must have landed years ago and are dirt cheap to build , plus they must be lots of other private companies building their own networks across because of the distance , we'll just have to wait for telkom as neotel and gov. are no where to be seen ....well done to isps

or just move the economic hub to south africa--in this way the centre of the earth will be here...easier said than done.
