Uncapped 384kbps for R399

I see screamer has just launched uncapped adsl accounts. :)

uncapped 384kbps = R399

http://screamer.co.za/adsl_unlimited.php

• No caps or thresholds
• No time restrictions or office-hours
throttling
• Fibre based international bandwidth
means lower latency
• Fixed monthly cost for unlimited
bandwidth
• No set up costs
• Flexible month-to-month contracts
 
Only time will tell. But this is in line with what chilli are planning. So it must be viable.

I'd definitely consider uncapped at that price -I'd have to cancel my afrihost account... pity.

On a side note, has anyone noticed the **** who has bid R955 on a 15GB topup on www.cybersmart.co.za ?
 
So why are they doing this if everybody is saying that afrihost is selling below cost? Is this another loss-leader attempt by Screamer? Anybody with them, any good?

ok u really now a country's internet access has been flushed down the ...... when they start auctioning internet bandwidth. my word.
 
Nevermind, RPM just answered my question:

“The selling prices cover the costs,” said Hart when asked how much Screamer is subsidising the broadband, “This is achieved by economies of scale with our existing WiMAX business but more importantly, by the breakthrough that the engineers have made by blending Seacom bandwidth with our two other upstream-broadband suppliers’ fibre based bandwidth. The end result is stable, high performance bandwidth which is redundant and cost effective.”
 
Wow, that's a good package!!

Just one question: What is a "month-to-month" contract :confused:
 
Hi all,

Now we have the proof that they all have been waiting for someone else to make the move. This seems more reasonable as the Telkom current line speed minimum is 384kbps. :D

Has anyone got any information on this Telecoms Company. ;)

So that Chilli is not that hot after all. Or is it? :D
 
Ok, to all of you ISP's who are waiting for the ice to brake. Come out and play. :D

And if you don’t want to play the uncapped ADSL game, don’t bother picking up the ball. Stay in your little corners. :D

So who's next! Telkom coming out with uncapped ADSL. Would be nice. :D

It means that you can cancel with one months notice and there are no 12 or 24 month contract requirements

Thats rather affordable. Pitty its so slow.

Could you please explain this in more detail and let me know what is slow.

Do they offer instant activation via credit card?

To keep the admin to the minimum we only activate this on a debit order because we can automate the process. Credit card activation might come in a month or 2.

and what is the contention ratio ;)

We will not overcontend the bandwidth as the CEO stated in the press release hence the "first come, first served comment"
