Good luck. With their harsh shaping there is probably not that many left with them.

Given that they own Axxess I'd wager that they will?

Should be about R544. They don't have the new price for bundles yet.

That would be R701 + line rental, but looking @ Telkom's Do Bundle for 2Mbps (bumped to 4Mbps) is R616, http://tinyurl.com/oazem75. Or will Telkom also readjust pricing?

Are you including Telkom voice line rental now?

Telkom will adjust their pricing, but I haven't seen it yet.

Capped would be increased automatically since capped prices are not based on speed

AFAIK capped accounts are as fast as your line speed, so you'll automatically benefit from the speed upgrades on a capped account. Unless I misinterpreted your question and you're talking about price decreases for capped accounts?

With the Do Bundle discount if the product is maintained for the new prices, 4Mbps + line rental will be R616 or without the discount R705. Axxes will be R701 inclusive.
