Hey Friends,

A quick note to let you know that we are offering free trial accounts on the following packages:

Vanilla Uncapped
Standard Uncapped
Silver Uncapped
Gold Uncapped
Platinum Uncapped

To register for a free trial account, kindly email: [email protected] as follows:

I would like to request a 2Mbps Vanilla Uncapped trial account please? (Edit as you see fit)

We will respond, and then you will be able to start using your ADSL again, after all the slow speeds your previous ISP have offered you, you can get on with those downloads using your brand new OpenWeb account :)

Happy Download,
MrBEEP
 
How much is 4-10Mbps ADSL line rental if I switch to Openweb? Would Openweb manage my line rental on my behalf? I don't see any mention of bundles on your website.
 
Currently on 2mb TI 200gb softcapped(advertised as uncapped) - very interested in 2mb OpenWeb Silver - request email sent, thanks for the offer OP...
 
I tried using my Openweb trial account today but it won't connect. What other router settings do I need? I have a Linksys router.

Using OpenWeb trial account right now, all I changed was username & password. Are you using specific dns or proxy settings from another/previous isp?
 
Tried their silver account. 3 days later I have now moved over to it :) nuf said!
 
Are these trial accounts an accurate reflection of the service I would receive as a paying customer? Because my 4Mbps Gold Uncapped account sucks to be honest. Bad speed test results, slow Youtube and unusable torrents.

They are indeed a true reflection, BUT you seem to have a problem because that is certainly not normal :p

i'll contact MrBeep if I were you, he'll help you out!
 
For me the silver is performing the same. I accidentally deleted all my utorrent downloads whilst clearing out the torrent files. something like 45 episodes mixed. All finished within a couple hours the same day :)
This took me like two weeks on mweb!
 
Have requested a Gold account. Sick of a certain other ISP's nonsense.
 
Thanks to Openweb for the trail, I was amazed at my difference in experience between it and my Mweb Account. During business hours it was a bit better but you live up to your promise of no shaping after hours. This has not been my experience on Mweb so count me in!
 
We will again be unshaping the entire network for the weekend.

Accounts will be unshaped at the following times today (Friday), and will remain unshaped until 8 am on Monday:

Platinum - 17:30
Gold - 17:40
Silver, Standard and Vanilla - 18:00

Happy downloading!

Hi

Can I order my Telkom DSL line through you guys as well ? If I can - how much ? And how soon can I get it all up and running ? My Telkom line was installed today.

Thanks

Hey Friends,

Just a quick note to let you know that our new batch of trial accounts have arrived.

If you would like to trial OpenWeb's services, kindly email [email protected] for your complimentary trial account.
 
What is a similar account to the Mweb premium? I am looking around for a new ISP before the end of the month and need to look at my options, already signed up for the Silver uncapped trial, just need to know what would have similar or better performance for that price.

Also i see you have a special running, is that only valid for the month of march or will that price stay the same as long as i stay signed up? Cause that 10Mbps line is looking mighty tempting right now :D
