Basically we had to be sure the bts servers was reliable enough, with proper backup before throwing the switch.....some had free Vlive for over a year.......Vodaflop lost almost 330 million thru Vlive, and that's not including the upgrade-cost......but there was a lot less cell users than today.....and money still had some value......

Considering most new cars cost less than R35.000 in those days, it was a Lot of money!!

Bottom line : sp's are losing out on data revenue and to some how minimise that loss, will start to throttle. In reality, the majority of bb users will go unaffected as they use the service for its intended purpose. Its the minority, usually the bis abusers that are the first to complain. Now do you think those sp's are going to be bothered if that minority stops subscribing? No! Its cos they will be relieved that the excess data saved could be used to cater for another 2000 bb subscribers. Th

the only reason bb is successful in this country is because of the unlimited bis, take that away and it will have no value, as of now only 8ta is left standing on unthrottled bis, once that is gone you will see another exodus to a proper platform, in this case maybe android. its just a matter of time before bb is no more in this country except maybe for the business ppl. I admit I only bought my bb to exploit bis otherwise its a pretty cr*p phone. when the 5GB a day stops, I jump ship.

I guess the only other way is to abuse em on pc.........Yes, there is such a thing like Bis on pc, but pls dont ask........i cannot share, i just said there is a way, Google might help......(using it now on my pc, may my loved ones die if i lie....)No, i dont mind saying it, cos im on BIS right now, using my laptop......

Cellc speeds are back to normal as far as I can tell. I'm in durban at the moment. Its funny cos I posted a complaint on their FB wall yesterday and they asked me to inbox cell no and bb pin. Now I'm sorted and have pre-throttled speeds. Has this happened to everyone?

Its nice to think that the little noise we made was heard by the network. Just goes to show you that, if you keep quiet about it, they will abuse you and you had better have a tub of vaseline lol
