Neotel has recently launched the first of their converged consumer packages, but when you walk down the street and ask people if they know about Neotel, the most popular answer you will get is: “Neotel? Neotel who? What are you talking about?”
This may be the case now, but things are going to change as South Africa’s second national operator (SNO) or Neotel’s coverage expands and more and more people start to make use of their products and services. There is no doubt in our minds that Neotel’s popularity will grow with the expansion of its coverage area.
The reason for this is simple: Neotel do not only offer bundled or converged Internet data, voice and SMS services through their NeoConnect offerings but also quality and affordability.
NeoConnect Lite…
NeoConnect Lite offers 1 package at this stage:
NeoConnect Lite - 2GB of bandwidth or Internet data, personalised email, 25 free on-net SMS’s and 500 free on-net voice minutes for the all-inclusive price of R299 per month on a 24-month contract. The price includes the device charge, VAT and all other monthly charges.
NeoConnect Prime…
NeoConnect Prime offers 5 packages to choose from, which include:
NeoConnect Prime Unlimited - Unlimited bandwidth or Internet data, 2000 free on-net minutes, 120 free local & regional to Telkom off-net minutes, 100 free on-net SMS and 100 free national SMS. All-inclusive price of R999 per month on a 24-month contract. The price includes the device charge, VAT and all other monthly charges.
NeoConnect Prime 15G – 15GB bandwidth or Internet data, 1500 free on-net minutes, 60 free local & regional to Telkom off-net minutes, 75 free on-net SMS and 50 free national SMS. All-inclusive price of R699 per month on a 24-month contract. The price includes the device charge, VAT and all other monthly charges.
NeoConnect Prime 10G – 10GB bandwidth or Internet data, 1000 free on-net minutes, 30 free local & regional to Telkom off-net minutes and 50 free on-net SMS. All-inclusive price of R599 per month on a 24-month contract. The price includes the device charge, VAT and all other monthly charges.
NeoConnect Prime 5G – 5GB bandwidth or Internet data, 1000 free on-net minutes, 15 free local & regional to Telkom off-net minutes and 50 free on-net SMS. All-inclusive price of R499 per month on a 24-month contract. The price includes the device charge, VAT and all other monthly charges.
NeoConnect Prime 2.5G – 2.5GB bandwidth or Internet data, 1000 free on-net minutes and 50 free on-net SMS. All-inclusive price of R399 per month on a 24-month contract. The price includes the device charge, VAT and all other monthly charges.
It’s clear from the above that Neotel means business and has done their homework. Neotel knows what The Average Joe wants.
This is only the beginning. We can expect the launch of even better and more affordable packages from Neotel in the coming months. ADSL South Africa (Broadband South Africa) is especially looking forward to the launch of Neotel’s first ADSL based offerings.
Will Telkom survive?
We believe Telkom won’t survive in its current form.
The Average Joes are fed up of Telkom and their BS to say the least. They are going to answer Neotel’s call in their thousands and millions when the time is right. We at ADSL South Africa (Broadband South Africa), Average Joes like you, will answer Neotel’s call when the time is right for us. The time will be right for us when Neotel got us covered and the same should be true for you. It is then time to get out of the trenches and take the fight to Telkom.
If Sexwale or someone or some group don’t succeed in buying Telkom in its totality and change the way Telkom does business, then Telkom is doomed. Telkom will be sold-off in separate units at an auction if that doesn’t happen soon.

Sorry, don't agree.
Tried Neotel light and got speeds comparable with cellphone connection (non 3g). Even the coverage on their premium service stinks according to my friend.
Have you tried to contact them re any query - nice informative website hey? (yeah right).
and then there's their accounts dept.
