Newbie comment of the day. BTW, it's OK to be new ;)

Digital hotness they were... I'm convinced if not for them I would not have MWeb uncapped today. Simple.
 
The Market is getting tough, and if Telkom unleashes their like the rumors say. Then things will get interesting for everybody. One advise to service providers though, they need to up their customer services environment because that is one thing Telkom lacks.

Yip.. DigiChilli was the first real hope for affordable uncapped ADSL in South Africa. They launched not too long after SEACOM landed in RSA.

I believe their's and Screamer's uncapped ADSL products were the catalysts that blew the market wide open, and gave MWEB the inspiration it needed.

Thanks DigiChilli, for igniting the uncapped revolution. It's a pity that your network sucked, your service sucked, and your billing and admin sucked. But nevertheless, we are all still very grateful for what you started.
 
Thanks DC for all the free testing...had my first taste of uncapped with you guys...oh the downtime and burst speeds....issues...was bliss...
thanks for starting the revolution.
cheers!
 
Must admit I did see this coming, their systems and support weren't the greatest. But they did start something that's for sure !
 
They will be missed. Their "feedback/complaints" thread was the only one that could rival TK around here.

Well there is no surprise there, I am still waiting for them to return my calls from when they launched their product. If only other companies with poor service would follow suite, no wait, we would have no fixed line broadband options then.
 
DigiChilli and SAOL got me back into the ADSL space (away from iBurst). Never looked back. They started the BB revolution.
 
The problem with uncapped is that you need a massive pool of users, massive network infrastructure and serious bandwidth. DigiChilli had non of that. Was probably my worst internet experience!
