Vox cuts ADSL prices

Vox Telecom cuts its ADSL price to R 50 per GB with a flexi-cap where users only pay for what they use

Well done to Vox Telecom for making ADSL more affordable. While they did not want to start a price war, this price cut is certainly a good step to starting a least a bit of a scuffle

 

[CrzWaco]

yeah its a nice offering and yeah hopefully this will be the start of something good.

 

[Tegnik]

Awesome. When every ISP gets a R2 price reduction... then another R2... then another... pretty soon we won't be so horribly priced.

 

[ldmelsa]

and so it begins

 

[Oreomitch]

Pity about the setup fee.

Vox is becoming like our mobile providers [ what you see is not really what you get ] Smoke and mirrors !

1GB ADSL R50 \ GB
Monthly fee R50
Setup Fee R50
Period 6 months

Average home usage example based on 3GB = R50+R16+R2.70 = R68.70 per gig

Not such a great deal - Houdini VOX

Comparing Shaped vs Unshaped?

Still, it is a step in the right direction!

How about we make a deal to only publish news if one of those ISP wise crackers make a quantum leap to join us with developed world...

Seriously this is now to better yesterdays anouncemtn about Afrihost which shaved whole 2 rand off the price.....

Seriously !!!!

we don’t want to start a price war

I say: let there be a price war! The consumer wins when price wars break out*

*All the more reason for them not to start a war?

Could you explain a little more in depth?

 

[Creag]

Yeah, can only hope this is the beginning of lots of good things

OH NO YOU DIDN'T!

I had completely forgotten that this song even exists!
You low life miserable !&$#%*!

Here, listen to this: http://evilnine.preloaded.com/

But .. back on topic, to me, Vox = Debit orders and installation fee's.
So, good move on their part to drop prices, but in these penny pinching days, their real competitiveness has only marginally improved.
But, any improvement is an improvement.

Note this calculation is base on 3Gb usage and a 6 months subsciption. There is a monthly fee of R50 hence the R16 added into the monthly calculation. The R2.70 is the setup fee / 6months and / 3GB. Come on its not that hard. Obviously on larger accounts it will change.

 

[LazyLion]

haha! Every day now we are seeing price cuts.... and Seacom hasn't even gone live yet!!!

Where are the pessimists? Got that BBQ sauce ready?

 

[Guest 20221009]

to hell with manners and being polite, lets start a price war...

call me stupid, but i see it like this:
1gig... R50/month + R50/6months(setup) = R58.30
3gig... R50 + 2xR50(topup) + R50/6months = R158.30 -> 52.70/gig

+1

Dont care if its R2 at a time , its less every day which is positive !!
