Why haven't I been capped yet?

[Sackboy]

I have a 2Gig cap and I've gone over it according to all the figures, but I haven't had any messages and everything is working as before.

Are Telkom being kind or is this usual for New Year's?

A similar thing is happening with a friend's account. He's way over and hasn't reverted to local only.

Telkom has blended cap usage system.... something like soft cap...

With your 2GB account, u can download around 3 to 3.5Gb until u are capped on international....... Theres also the bonus 20GB local that kicks in after that.

The 20Gb local is telkoms present to us...... hahahahaha

Actually they were forced to give us this present!

i was sure we were gonna be capped last week already so we bought some prepaid gigs but we are still online.

Yeah, it was ICASA who insisted. Yay, they do work for their money.;-)

I don't understand this blending thing. I thought blended was a combined International+local. So does the overun come off next month's allocation. I'm still on International/Local.
Also, when do I get the 30Gig local if it just goes over the limit??

Anyone noticed that Telkom's data usage counter is still on ZERO for January?!

Don;t know about caps - I'll need a root canal by the end of the day with the amount I'm using.
