Vox Telecom Fatpipe

Oh yeah completely forgot, I currently have a 10mb line. I mainly use it in the evenings after work and over weekends obviously. I just want to play games and stream on Twitch etc.
Also is it possible to add 2x 100gb fatpipe to a single account or will it be two different accounts?

You can probably get away with just the 25GB and fat pipe tbh.
You cant combine 2x100GB. They only put the special on the 100GB accounts and not 200GB accounts.

Yeah. I would go for the bolt on and fatpipe combo. Remember the fatpipe rolls over so always handy to have. Gig4gig not.

You add accounts under one username and account but obviously with individual router log in details.
 
Sweet thank you very much for the for the quick replies. Think I'll go for the fatpipe + bolt on combo. Must say I've been using the 1TB samsung fatpipe cap and my experience was just pleasant...no complains whatsoever.
 
Fatpipe plus bolt on? Please update if you managed to get a bolt on as I am under impression you dont get fatpipe plus bolt on anymore?

Sorry, no, I knew when I was typing that it would cause consternation in the ranks.

I meant fatpipe x 100gb and gig4gig 25 + bolt-on. His own combo...
 
Hey guys, I got the 100GB special a week ago (superb I must say) and I stumbled upon the fat pipe lite with the bolt on and I am not understanding it fully.
Will my 100GB fat pipe be linked to my fat pipe lite + bolt on? Or would I have to change login details whenever I want to switch to the other?
Also, I read on the previous page that I will only be given 10mbps (I have a 20Mb VDSL line) is that specifically for the bolt on only therefore i'll get my normal speed on my fat pipe and fat pipe lite?
Thanks in advance, I appreciate it.

You will get separate login details for the fatpipe lite with bolt on account and it is not linked to the 100gb fatpipe account. The bolton is limited to 10mbps and the fatpipe will run at 20mbps
 
Bolt-on is currently sold in only one format and/or bundle and that is bundled with a 25gb gig4gig account.

25gb gig4gig runs at max line speed while bolt-on is rate limited to 10mb.

Edit: I stand under correction, is gig4gig rate limited to 40mb? And you can purchase gig4gig by the gb @ R15 per gig.

Fatpipe is no longer bundled or sold with bolt-on and fatpipe runs at max line speed beyond 100mb apparently.

Gig4gig and fatpipe are 2 separate products.

Fatpipe is the standalone capped product offered by VOX.

Gig4gig is a capped product available at the rate of R15 per gig or alternatively in its one and only bundle of 25gb gig4gig + bolt-on @R148... R89 for the 25gb gig4gig and R59 for the bolt-on...

I think Dankbanker's suggestion of customers building their own packages might prove a little too challenging for most consumers.

just wonder if is there a difference in quality between bolt on after hours and fatpipe afterhours?

Fatpipe is their premium product. Bolt-on is rate limited to 10mb. On a 4mb line there shouldn't be any discernible difference. But the complete opposite on 20mb and above... Obviously....

Bolt on performs well, as good as fatpipe @8mb. I use bolt-on, on a 20mb line too and I get 1.2MB/s download speeds consistently. That's a solid 10mb account.

bolt on is very solid, never seen torrents go from 0 - 10mbps so quickly.
