MWEB will not be making adjustments to its capped products following recent wholesale price cuts, the CEO of its ISP division, Derek Hershaw, confirmed in a recent interview on technology podcast Let’s Talk Geek.
“Our focus since March 2010 has been on uncapped,” Hershaw said. “That’s our strategy going forward and it’s working for us.”
Hershaw said that their primary concern is driving benefit for their uncapped base.
“Our capped products are very well priced,” Hershaw said, adding that he believes capped pricing is starting to bottom out now.
“It has almost become a race to the bottom.”
Hershaw said that he doesn’t think the pricing on capped products is a barrier to entry anymore, “So our focus is really about uncapped.”

The problem is not the cost of ADSL the issue is that you have to get a landline – (+-R200), and then it is the ADSL line and the data itself (MWEB price this morning – R329). then you are looking at uncapped 384kbps for +-R529.
On the other side of things iBurst offers uncapped at R599, sometimes i get a speedtest rating of about 1mbps and i’m not even in the best reception area.
For R445 you get 50GB of data.
