Have been with snail mail (Telkom), then Mweb and now Afrihost, the latter is imho by far the best, BUT I only surf and download after hours, being 59+ years young I only sleep 3 hours a night so my downloads is between 270 to 300 gig. Long story short which is the best ISP for me ... after hours vs cost vs speed vs reliable:wtf:
 
After hours... I think telkom's usage is free between 12-6
 
I am currently on 4mbps my line can handle 10. My after hours is 19h00 to 06h00 and over weekends and then Public Holidays
 
OPENWEB
OPENWEB ,THEY NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER TROTTLE
TRUST ME BUDDY

Leave open web! Jesous !

I think telkom 20gb soft cap with after hours unlimited would be your best bet.

Vox gig4gig with uncapped bolt on is also a very alluring offer.

All depends on what you want, from the top of my head:

1. Shared accounts - Openweb
2. Shaped and throttled capped accounts - Web Africa, Afrihost
3. We will never tell you the exact limits of your uncapped account - Mweb
4. Don't use so much, you abuser you - Telkom, Mweb
5. 30 Days to cancel, 30 days to downgrade, but instant upgrade - Openweb, Mweb
6. Billing problems - Web Africa, Openweb
7. R1 promotions fails, Lets download the internet fail - Web Africa
8. We will bull**** you - Openweb, Mweb, Afrihost
9. We will auto close your tickets - Web Africa

...All about the features you want :)



but do not fear young OP, the chosen one will soon enter the thread and help us onto the path of salvation

Afrihost doesn't shape their capped accounts. I get full line speed all day err day
 
Thanks for all of this, much appreciated
Must make a dicision the 25th is around the corner tik tok tik tok
After hours is a great drawcard but there is always the fineprint, isnt it. Knowing that I have to do something but what!

6 of the one half a dozen of the other
Must say if AH offers an after hours it would have been a no brainer but seriously looking at WA. Am i missing something?

From my experience the quality of WA is far superior to Afrihost.
 
Not launched yet but if you can get an account go with Crystalweb. Talk to Dj or Paul. Had some teething issues but have gone the extra mile for us during it as well. Currently going great.
