Vox Telecom Fatpipe

Dipro said:
Simples: I posted on here as a concerned VOX client (through 3G as they were blocking this website - see previous posts from other users).......... So, I then continued to monitor the situation while I wait for my full refund from VOX.... I since joined CW who are simply AMAZING to understate how good they are ;) ... but I am now monitoring this VOX thread because if they become pathetic and refuse my refund (even though this was all done last month and I haven't used the account this month), then I will be able to use it for my downloads... ;)

I hope that clarifies the situation, or to word it more appropriately, is that Crystal clear ?! ;)

How do I report a post? Thus referral code is working on my tits. If it's on the signature I can understand but it's in the post so it's a deliberate thing.

How does the bolt-on stack up to the capped account performance wise? Not the gig4gig but the regular capped?

I personally have a bolt on acc, The account is limited to 10mbps. I get full 10mbps speeds on all downloads between 6pm - 6am.

Not the best for gaming though, Latency issues quite often, but for downloading it is stellar.

Fairly easy on the website via PC, not sure about tapatalk ect, but on the left bottom corner of the post there is a exclamation sign, tiny but looks like a roadsign. Thats the report post button.

Yeah, good to know. I think that's primarily what I'm going to be using it for, downloading...

Will set my router up in bridge mode with only my pc, that does the heavy lifting, connecting to the bolt-on account while the rest of the household uses the 200gb capped account...

My Vox accounts are fine all day. Max my 20meg line easy

I also have fatpipe, I find speeds generally vary between 15 - 25mbps on speed test on my 40 meg line. Only issue I have is latency in the evenings when their network becomes a bit congested.

Still?
My issues have totally vanished regarding evening latencies.

And the difference being ? :confused:

Your comment and your logic in that statement does not make logical sense to me on any level. :wtf:

A signature is a deliberate thing..... looking forward to your reply :whistle:

What the forum rules regarding using one's signature for commercial purposes?

EDIT: Reps have permission I'm sure and a specific status reserved for reps.

Okay, so I know have bolt-on linked to the gig4gig account.

I don't understand Vox's logic behind not allowing it on their regular capped accounts? I bought a 200gb capped (R629.00 + R59 for bolt on = R688.00) account with the intention of replacing my WA 200gb + 800gb after hours account @ R599 per month. But now I can just buy bolt-on @ R59, rape that off peak and get 300gb's from Axxess for R565.00, total cost R624.00... Idiotic of Vox imho...

Maybe they want to milk the oob rates talking of which where do I ensure that once the free gb is exhausted the account becomes capped?

Here??

not too sure, Although reps use theirs for commercial purposes, But I dunno if rules are different for reps vs normal members.

Yup - there

re: the logic, dunno - I reckon they figure that most people won't go to the bother of having two accounts with different providers and if they go Gig4Gig Vox can make more money that way

Yeah, that's most likely it. Ridiculous really, but they probably have sales figures vindicating their decision.

Enjoying this Vox fat pipe (is that what's it called? Odd title and one I usually associate with my penis). It performs like capped accounts used to perform 2-3 years ago.

Just about every capped account these days has limitations on various protocols, p2p being the most heavily effected.

Just remember, if your bolt-on goes pear shaped, PM Voxy - it's not a conspiracy, they are not out to 'drive you away' or 'screw you over' or 'insert appropriate paranoid delusional accusation seen in the thread rantings here' :D

The bolt-on has had a horrible habit of going pear-shaped.

Also, another issue that some people have had is that the cap rollover sometimes doesn't work properly ie. you use the current months' allocation, but still have some allocation left over from last month but the account still gets capped - keep their phone number handy and be prepared to be patient and understanding while explaining the issue to the person on the other side.

Oh, and don't hesitate to PM Voxy (did I already say that? - oh, yes, I did) :D

lies!! they are always out to get you!!
 
Perfect account when it works still one of the 50 gb fat pipe + bolts accounts. Still 2 ways about my cancellation 1 June cut off but this latency issues cant play online coupled with random websites not working, I don't know kinda deal breaker for me. Still looking for new account. CW was looking like an option. Wont mention the thread but some interesting things were mentioned from both sides. Guess will have to see for myself.

Ps. For me personally Vox has always been helpful replies, phone calls etc.
