Web Intact (Or intactless service)

This one? :mad: Are they mad!

GWI has some exciting news for you. We are upgrading our networks to provide you with faster and better service.
Starting in the next few weeks you will notice faster connections to the Internet, fewer dropped connections, and
substantially reduced outages. We have embarked upon this upgrade because our customers asked us to improve
our services without a price increase.

In addition to our network improvements we are also introducing several new service packages to meet the needs
of all our customers. We will no longer be offering uncapped service as part of our service offering because 98% of
our customers use less than 3GB per month and you will notice that without a price increase you will still have
access to this large bandwidth at an improved service. Beginning October 18th, 2007 we will introduce the
following new packages:

Month 2 Month Packages
3 Gigs * R 350.00 (R 450.00)
5 Gigs * R 550.00 (R 650.00)
8 Gigs * R 850.00 (R 850.00)
Size * No CPE (Rental Options)

Bandwidth top ups
500 megs R 85.00
1 Gig R 170.00
3 Gig R 450.00

These packages are designed to provide greater value to our customers who use large amounts of bandwidth while
continuing to provide excellent value to our average customers.

If we do not hear from you we will change you to the package which best suits your usage patterns without a price
increase. If we are unable to match you to a package we will contact you personally to discuss your requirements.

GWI is committed to provide innovative services at the best rates in the industry. We will continue to improve our
networks and pledge to provide the most technologically advanced services in the industry.

Where is the greater value? I was (when the network was still working) doing about 50Gb in total traffic for R550/m. I'm currently down to half of that if I'm lucky and now I'm only going to get 5Gb :eek:

This is going to work out more expensive than ADSL :mad:
 
I joint GWI because telkom won't offer ADSL to my premises and GWI is uncapped. Now too bad.
I can pickup these SSIDs, I think I have heard that they belong to some other WISP provies uncapped internet, Just need to know their contacts
SSID: mis-503,500,505,501....
 
Also, GWI's 1Gb "topup" is now officially 300% more expensive than ADSL 1Gb.

Roflmao

WTF is going on????

We went with these guys because they provided an uncapped service, which we could use in an emergency should our ADSL be down for longer than a day...

...just crazy...
 
re: WTF

Are all GWI clients going to have the same line speed now, and how fast will it be.

What must I do with 3gig, that's not even enough for VISTA's updates in a month:mad:

Same here no response,
 
Ah. Hands up, who saw this one coming?

Next step, is them announcing that they've managed to get some "investors" to fund a huge network upgrade.
Then they run for a month or 2.
Then they start to cut costs, on things like support, and transit bandwidth.
Then, their customer _really_ start to complain and leave.
Then they go bankrupt.
