Telkom has launched the TelkomInternet powered by ADSL Standard package, offering customers a combination of e-mail and always-available Internet services at reduced cost.
The TelkomInternet powered by ADSL Standard package is a basic package offered with the 2GB Shaped service. It includes one e-mail account and five aliases, one username and password. The package does not allow concurrent sessions, and does not include Web space.
The Internet package, which costs R199 per month, complements Telkom`s recently launched HomeDSL384 service, which offers home users an always-available connection to the Internet at a fixed-monthly fee of R449.
"Market research has shown that there is a requirement for a more suitable package that complements the recently introduced Telkom HomeDSL 384 access service," says Nombulelo Moholi, Telkom`s Chief Sales and Marketing Officer.
"The combination of both services provides customers with always-available access to the Internet for under R700 per month. And unlike dial-up services, there are no recurring call costs," Moholi said.
Telkom`s strategy is focused on customer retention and growth, which allows the group the flexibility in responding to evolving customer needs.
"Telkom`s approach encourages and fosters the constant re-invention of product and service offerings. With this latest introduction customers have the ability to configure their always-available Internet package to suit their individual needs," Moholi said.
Should the allocated 2GB bandwidth be exhausted before month-end, the service will not be available over the ADSL network until the start of the next month. Customers will, however, have the option of buying additional usernames or use the analogue dial-up service, which is included in the package.
The analogue dial-up is also a handy addition for travellers, allowing them access to the Internet and their e-mails from any telephone. Both the TelkomInternet powered by ADSL Standard package and the existing packages can be used with HomeDSL 384 access providing customers with an additional choice.
