Free dialup while you wait for ADSL
MWEB is currently offering all self-install ADSL subscribers free dial-up Internet while waiting for their application to be processed by Telkom.
The standard industry waiting period for the ADSL Self-Install Option is currently about four to six weeks and according to Natalie Thayer, MWEB’s General Manager, this can rightfully lead to high levels of frustration amongst subscribers who are keen to access the Internet.
“At MWEB we are committed to providing the fastest possible Internet access to both residential and business users. We’ve therefore come up with this solution to ensure that our subscribers are online immediately.”
Although subscribers will be liable for the cost of the dial-up calls, they will be able to access the Internet right away and there will be no limit to the time spent online.
Available to both new and existing subscribers who want to upgrade to MWEB ADSL, customers will also enjoy the benefits of MWEB’s exclusive free subscriber services such as virus and spam filtering, parental guidance software, four extra e-mail addresses, a two Gig mailbox, MWEB Faxmail and online security from McAfee.
