Posted this on WAs site but no response yet:

"I have been eyeing the 30GB/R199 special for a while now but it is obvious at this point that you will not be able to continue with this offer. Even so, I notice that the offer is still being advertised on myadsl and the registration page on your site is still active.

What will happen if I register now with activation date 1 November? Will you bill me for Rx amount at whatever the new rates are? By when will I know how much I will ACTUALLY be charged? Should I wait before I register and up to what point?"
 
If they are still advertising "old" rates, they would need to honor that!
 
They made it clear that its only valid till 31 Oct (read the advert) , I'm not sure if the discount code will work if you register with activation date of 1 Nov
 
I did take the wizard to the point where it asks registration detail and there was no problem (with 1 Nov activation date). Regarding the special, they did state that there will possibly be a new special from 1 Nov. But without any official response this is all murky.
 
Just phoned the webafrica folks. They said they will contact the 30GB users in the middle of the month with new prices and the option to cancel. The special ends at the end of the month as stated

For immediate release --

21 July 2005 - Web Africa is pleased to announce the following promotional pricing on ADSL 30GB exclusive to MyADSL viewers only:

30GB ADSL for R199pm (incl)
Promotional Code: MY459183 (expires 31/10/05)

Available immediately through our online ordering system.

We are excited and challenged by our competitors and a highly informed and discerning MyADSL readership. We also believe in maintaining our traditional levels of customer service and support and thus will not be lowering our standard pricing in the current environment.

Fine print:
- This promotion may not be used in conjunction with any other
promotion or our regular "50% off from the 15th of the month discount."
- This promotion is valid until 31 October 2005.
- ADSL accounts run from 1st to 31st of the month
- Maximum 3 discounted accounts per client
- Applies only to the ADSL 30GB shaped service


--Update 30 September 2005--

Will you be changing your prices for November?
It is not clear at this stage.

Why can't you release pricing?
Because there is a likelyhood that we may preserve current pricing.

Will the MyADSL special continue if your regular prices don't change?
Possibly. Or there may be a new special.

When wil I be informed of this?
As soon as we have clarity.

Will I automatically be billed for November if the prices change?
No.

Will you be price competitive with the other ISPs?
Agressively so.

What are you doing for the consumer?
We are in still in meetings daily regarding the situation. We have already pursued a few avenues (litigation, ICASA, ISPA, alternate suppliers).

What about the 30day notice?
Web Africa does not require 30 day notice on any ADSL products. Notice must be given before end of each month should you wish to cancel. This may be done online (client area), via email or telephone. One caveat: Debit orders are prepared around the 25th thus if you cancel after that and you on debit order you will be refunded.

How does a Monthly billing work?
You are billed every month until you cancel. You do not need to request a service each month.

What if I want it just for one month?
Order and cancel anytime during the month. You account will be cancelled but still still active until the end of the month.
