Smaller ISP, tend to be more flexible, i.e. owner managed, able to make quicker decisions.

Bigger ISP, more structures, more employees and accountants, the real reason there is a delay, accountants have do accounting, and see how they can let company increase profits or somehow benefit from the Vumatel price reductions.

Accountants: the reason we have biscuit wheels and one reverse light in our cars.

Oh i get it... so nothing to do but wait.
 
Yeah, would be nice if Link Africa/Vodacom would follow (as they sold their FTTH subscribers to Vuma). I was forced to use them (as they were the only provider in my area for a long time) and I refuse to use openserv as they are Telkom and they can drop dead. (Took me 9 months to cancel my ADSL, plus having to get Wendy Knowler involved - they couldn't provide the service at new house)

Until Vumatel themselves have officially made the announcement I don't think Mybroadband or ISPs will release much info.

MTS was surprisingly quick, although they don't seem to do the gigabit lines so that may be a reason why.

The extra upload is just so nice to have.

I don't use upload at all always been on the lowest upload possible to save some green Nelsons so it's a meh in my books more happy about the R40 saving :ROFL: but overall happy thanks Cool Ideas :cool:
 
Also just got an email from Cool Ideas... 100/100 drops from 1199 to 1099 from 1st of July. :)

Typically the price won't change but it's a permanent package and will move to 1000/200. There is also a 1000/500 package being introduced.

Whoohoo! I would really like to know all the new prices because I am itching to upgrade further from my 100/100 (was 100/10) line! Nevermind not needing it, I wants it!
 
Gigawave: my 50/5 becomes 50/50 (for R949 p/m)

Or I can upgrade:

100/100 R1145 p/m
200/200 R1395 p/m
1000/200 R1499 p/m
1000/500 R2295 p/m
 
Meh - the increase in upload speed is nice, but I was hoping the 50/50 package would drop in price to R700-odd as suggested by the initial posts. Maybe time to ISP-hop after other ISP's respond.
