| 750275 | 2009-02-22 08:38:00 | Well I"m finaly an ORCON customer. It took three weeks for the changeover. Price is much the same as my old Xnet/telecom connection Complaints with Orcon. Don't e-mail them. You get a reply from their computer and then about two days later you MAY get a reply from a real person. Usualy it's not needed, or even vaguely helpful. They FORGOT to put me on uncapped upload. That should be rectified this week Telephone responses are quick and their staff seem to know what they are talking about. Download speed is about 3700 kbps and it seems to be constant. No slow down in evenings With Speedtest.net I can connect with New York and Pretoria at about 2500 in the evenings. With xnet I was lucky if I could get dial up speed. My bulk e-mail, notifying about 200 contacts of my new address went through without a hitch Overall I am happy with the change |
