Thought it would make for some interesting stats to get these details. I'll try to collate them, or mybb can for an article if they like.

The thought struck me as I use a capped 100gig account, and am looking at upgrading to an uncapped account as my usage is about to increase substantially. I worked out that on my 4Mb line, if I rate limit my downloading to 200KB/s and leave it running 24x7 I will require about 500gigs of monthly usage.

So please post your details in the following format:

Line speed: 4Mb/s
ISP: Openweb capped 100gig
ISP Cost: R399 p/m (*note, ISP cost only - not line rental)
Average monthly usage: 99gigs

If you don't know your average monthly usage then log on to your ISP control panel and try to find it there. If you can't, then try to work out your last month's usage...

R160 p/m? Contract special?

Their site indicates R249 p/m. But then again, their do.co.za and telkom.co.za sites are pretty much broken. Followed two Google links - both give errors. Clicked on voice line rental price breakdown in do.co.za and the telkom link was also dead...
