Afrihost ADSL capped prices slashed up to 50%

Afrihost will give their paid uncapped subscribers double their normal amount of data at no additional charge, the Internet service provider (ISP) recently revealed to MyBroadband.

Capped, surely?

Cap? What's that??
 
We're finally approaching more acceptable capped prices. Well done Afrihost for shaking it up again!
 
Actually would not mind a 200gb package instead of having uncapped. Not for that price though. I currently pay R199 and could pull around 150-200gigs.

The quality of uncapped gigs is poorer though, and quite unpredictable. With capped, you're pretty much guaranteed full speed whenever you need it. I'd be more than happy to fork out R300 for 150GB. We're not quite there yet, but it's getting better.
 
If you need less than 15GB per month, "capped" is the more cost effective product for you. Therefore most home users who do not download Thor-ends.

They're conditioned to thinking that, ja...

Anyway, I've given the 5GB account that came with my line to people just like this. They're almost scared of using the web :o
 
Well done Afrihost:)

I agree, for my needs my uncapped is going pretty well, but if the price drops any more I will switch.
 
Damn, i should step up my uncapped usage. I use about 80-100GB a month and that costs about the same as their 100GB package now.
 
Hope Axxess will also have this capped promotion since they also use the MTN ADSL network. I also pray that this will be permanent after July.

Mweb is falling behind after CEO Rudi Jansen left. Cancelled three uncapped Mweb accounts in the last month for unshaped unthrottled capped Axxess accounts. The speed is simply amazing.

Once I can get 75gb for R300 I'm going capped. Makes more sense since 10/20/40mb uncapped is ludicrously expensive.

With this special it is 71GB for R299 PM. [35GB + 35GB + 1GB Free]
OR
101GB for R399 PM. [50GB + 50GB + 1GB Free]
