@Areba, I would gladly contribute to a cause to compel these ISPs/MNOs to stop false advertising, just for the fun of listening to or reading the convoluted "Terms and Conditions" their lawyers will come up with
Orange has countrywide 3G+ infrastructure that is not capped, a 1200 a gives you about 200kBps, which more or less is the threshold of the technology, GSM internet, or HUSPA is limited to some towns and that is what you get for 990, capped at 10GB (wtf?), I usually but SIM cards and throw away after 10GB and buy others, last time i recharged a SIM that had hit FUP it kulad my cash and remained on FUP...Back to the discussion: Should we lobby for Users of services to stop claiming they are selling Unlimited Internet if it is Limited to 10GB????On Mon, Dec 10, 2012 at 4:15 PM, Tusker 21 <tusker212@gmail.com> wrote:
Correct me if i am wrong. Does orange have a countrywide 3g infrastructure?

@Kebaya, is the 10Gb cap something documented as their FUP cap or did it happen to your connection??
