Ok as of this morning i have received emails from vlocity as well as Comtel, one issue none of them provides uncapped, although vlocity promised to start selling uncapped as of next month.
amobia seems a lot more solid and affordable just hope i have coverage as their coverage map suggest.

I haven't seen any good posts about AMOBIA's uncapped service, only from their capped offerings. I would go for that as it is unshaped and the topup price isn't that bad...
 
True true well the other thing is packages like 20 gig a month are just too tiny for me, my monthly data usages are around 180gb - 220gb
 
SharkBait@ I just recieved a call from Amobia seems like they will be in our are doing a site survey today. hope all goes well.

yeah i hope so man good luck Shark , well on my side i have had so many disappointments regarding coverage that well i am not so optimistic.
but well who knows.
 
I haven't heard from them yet, but Easyweb Internet also contacted me and said there is coverage. They are a bit pricy as well, though... :(

For you, it would be something like:
Installation: R1200
Uncapped unshaped 1:1 contention ratio: R7k/month
Uncapped unshaped 1:4 contention ratio: R5k/month
Uncapped shaped 1:20 contention ratio: R1k/month
All 3 are for 1mbps connections...

Hi Guys

Yes we are Uncapped internet solution. We do shape the p2p during the day. when our plans falls in place we'll have p2p during the day that will be seperate from internet browsing connection lines. We do not soft cap our clients because we supply total UNCAPPED internet solutions.

Regards

Jaco

Maybe because he was still busy at my place... :p

Some good prices, sawireless, will keep it in mind. Just a note, I am not a heavy downloader, but I need a stable connection for my online gaming.
 
well the Vlocity guys are at my place at the moment.

So how did it go @sharkbait
