Africa where they have NO IDEA of how frustrating it is trying to blog and live with 'capped' Internet !!!!
3 hours I spent on the phone yesterday trying to get an answer to what should be a relatively straight forward question ... why is it that since I have 'upgraded' to a better Internet package that is costing me more I am now using 4x the amount of Internet??? when my routine hasn't changed I am still operating in the same 'modus operandi'??? Let me explain to the blogger nation maybe someone out there can explain cos Telkom SA are clueless !!!!
In December I upgraded from a 1gig package to a 3 gig package - normally when I was on the 1gig package by about the 20something of the month I would have run out of Internet (yes go figure western world !!!) so therefore would have to top up my Internet (still with me?) so when Telkom brought out a 3gig package for R10.00 cheaper than what I was paying and it was for 3gig bonus I was scoring yes -NOT.
This month by the 11th January apparently I had used 3 gig !!! Almost impossible ... but hey maybe Santa logged on or the tooth fairy or something extra terrestrial etc .... SO on Monday I bought 1gig to TOP UP (actually I figured with all the visitors and them not realising that we have capped Internet etc ...make excuses for them etc...) And last week I merrily used my Internet as I always do ... no extra downloads, no extra uploads nothing out of the ordinary ... Yesterday I had no Internet AGAIN ... apparently used 1 gig in a week ... seriously HOW THE HELL IS THAT POSSIBLE ????
NOW the fun starts - you try talking to 'geeks' who a)are geeks but who b) seriously lack command of the British language !!!! (Honey I think I'm gonna kill somefing) 3 hours later and I still do not have answers as to why since I went onto the more expensive (Bigger) package I am using 4x the amount of Internet when ... it's still ONLY little old me??? I sooo wish I'd never changed .....
My friends and family that are all on the same package ... who have teenagers who are on the net 24/7 can manage of 3 gig and until I went onto this new package I could manage on 2 gig and now I have had to purchase gig no.5 so far this month !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DOES ANY OF THIS MAKE ANY SENSE TO ANYONE ??? Please !!!
