So Sanral are on the PR and marketing offensive lying through their teeth to all of us. I recently proved that they were lying and in doing so proved that the system is not financially viable either. See here - http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthr...ing-Thread?p=11280341&viewfull=1#post11280341

But now let's have a look at the realities for all of us. Go ahead and calculate the actual cost per month for you to have the privilege of using our own roads - http://tollcalc.sanral.co.za/etoll/

For me, it is likely to cost around R1890 per month according to their calculator, made up of R1100 business and nearly R800 personal costs.

So when Sanral say that 83% of the road users are going to pay less than R100 per month, I'd like to know by what extent Sanral are now lying, in relation to their own actual numbers.

Post your Sanral poverty score here...

Update:

So from 19 respondents, the average is R711,90. Of which 89.5% of respondents so far will be paying more than R100 per month.

Sanral claim that 82% of road users will pay less than R100 per month. Let's set the ASA on them.

Please keep posting your results and once we reach 100 legitimate responses, I will begin drafting an ASA complaint...

What happened to the R550/month cap? More of their marketing BS?
 
Either I'm doing something wrong (or something very right) because according to sanral it won't be costing me anything :wtf:
 
I assume sanral assume you bought a tag and are therefore capped at R450, no?

Fsck no. Has anything that I've ever written about them given you the impression that I'm in any way inclined to buy an e-tag...?
 
That calculator is pretty useless, it doesn't account for travel on the M1/M2 via multiple toll gates on the N1, N3 and N12...
 
If you don't register and get an etag, it's around R14 to R18 per gantry that you pass under.
 
I'm not giving those thieving bastards a cent, so nothing.

I'll take the plate off my bike if I have to, not to commit crimes but as an act of civil disobedience.
 
Mine is R460 with discount, lynwood to Samrand and back each day.

Wonder how the F they came up with the "no more than R100 figure"

Sure, but post your calculation in any case. The point of this thread is to highlight more Sanral lies, and we'll only get to the bottom of that if we can show that they're talking absolute crap with their 82% will pay less than R100 per month statement...
 
Just for ****s & giggles then, R 343.50 on the bike, R 573.00 if I use my car.
