Uncapped LTE... More uncapped than LTE

<p>With the promise of 'Lightspeed Internet' I signed up for the Smartbroadband Uncapped LTE special in June 2016. I recieved excellent service from the store. After about a month or so, speeds started decreasing drastically. To the point where web pages would become unresponsive. The time of day also made a difference, early hours of the morning were better, peak times terrible. This tells me one of two things:</p> <p>1. There is strain on the network in peak times (The service was promised to be limited to a certain amount of users per base station so as to not affect speeds)</p> <p>2. Throttling is happening. (I quote the original explanation from Telkom 'You will never be throttled' The exception was, Bandwidth Intensive Protocols [Defined by Telkom themselves as P2P and NNTP only] once a 'cap' of 50GB was reached, the speeds for these BIP's would be throttled to 128kbps)</p> <p>This is not LTE, and was not the deal. This has been ongoing for 2 months or so now and as time goes on, 128kbps seems to be the norm, if i'm lucky.</p> <p>So Telkom, fix it or lets call it a day. This is not what I signed up for, nor is it what I pay R799p/m for.</p> <p>I eagerly await your resolution.</p> <p>Dave</p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
