Afrihost drops uncapped ADSL prices

9 May 2012

Afrihost today (9 May 2012) announced that it is reducing the price of its uncapped ADSL products.

All clients with existing 4Mbps products will save R100 every month and be charged only R397 per month from now on.

However, Afrihost said that it will initially only make 500 4Mbps accounts available to new clients to assess the sustainability of the new pricing.

“All existing clients and new subscriptions will be guaranteed the new price into perpetuity as long as they remain with Afrihost. These new packages will become available on the Afrihost website from 1pm on Wednesday 9th May,” said Afrihost.

The reason Afrihost have taken a while to announce this, the company said, is that they decided to ensure that they improved both the quality of the product and the price. “This means you will now pay less than ever before for an uncapped ADSL solution, while receiving a far superior service as well,” said Afrihost director Greg Payne.

The new packages will be available on the Afrihost website from 13h00 today (9th May) and all existing clients will automatically be migrated to the new pricing on their next invoice.

Package Old Price New Price Reduction
384kbps R197pm R177pm 10%
1Mbps R297pm R197pm 33%
4Mbps R497pm R397pm 21%

    Very nice. What this means in the real world where most of us flounder around in the shallows of 384k 🙂 is that I can now move up to 1 MB from 384 for the SAME price. The only fly in the ointment, of course, is the difference in price for the ADSL line rental!!! 🙁
