Possibly to save them bandwidth, same as youtube? Could be a moral standpoint depending on the company?

Would be interesting to see because they do offer LTE also.

An LTE icon on your device will mean f-all of the router this APN runs on only has 64Kb/s throughput...

I suspect they use some free DNS based service (given their pricing), easily circumvented...
 
I'll throw my assumption out there.

They got a Fibre link from Vodacom and took the handy private APN option and are selling services over the APN (this does use the allocated fibre bandwidth).
 
Tried to google them. Nothing comes up. With that prices you would think you would be able to google something.

If it is too good to be true.....

Considering their website was created a week ago (thereabouts), I doubt they've had enough time to get proper SEO...

Anyone want to go halves to be guinea pigs...
 
No physical address or company details

Definitely seems dodgy

OK, I get the save bandwidth thing, despite not agreeing with it when you say "unlimited". They should rather throttle/shape.

Moral standpoint I do not agree with at all. Let them impose their moral crap on their kids. Not paying customers.
 
According to the banking details provided by them:

Account Name: Mazarin Trading CC

Google them and Found the following:
MAZARIN TRADING CC
Company Information
3 Mazarin Street
Lenasia, Gauteng, 1827 South Africa
+27-118547607
 
So I called them on Friday.

First the guy say they are going through their fibre on a custom APN. Then he said they have reached an agreement with MTN where they provide the data at the low rate through a custom APN on MTN's network. He mentioned they have many sign ups. Anyone actually signed up for this?
 
Those terms and conditions give me a heavy scam vibe.
I'm probably more paranoid than the average person though, tbh.
